Here is a look at some Woodbury condos that are listed for under $300,000. The bad news is that these are all short sales. (Sales transactions for short sales are difficult to complete, and the price might be bid up before a final sale is made.)

In fact, many of Woodbury’s two-bedroom condos that are on the market are short sales. For that matter, many of the homes in Woodbury are short sales.

To check for yourself, see the map of Woodbury homes currently on the market.

Two of these distressed properties are listed below.
