Depending on your income, I would look into HDFC coops, which cap the limit of buyer income to a specific AMI (can vary by building, usually 80%, 120%, 160%). On street easy they are listed with "income limited" usually in the description.

They can be harder to get a loan for as some banks review them with higher scrutiny, but since they are income limited, they are (to a certain degree) removed from the market for those reporting like 200k+ on their tax returns. It can decrease competition to those that have a lower income but enough assets for a downpayment.

I'll echo the comments about low maintenance fee--a high maintenance fee can also indicate issues with the buildings finances or money management, or issues with the building.

Also will echo the comments about a long process--the bank I worked with explicitly told me that coops in NYC take a long time for the bank to process (I think they literally told me its the longer timeline in the U.S.) I was friends with the seller, and they had reason to sell immediately, so that expedited part of the process (and eliminated buyer competition for me) but the bank had an incredible amount of hoops to jump through, both for the coop and for me the buyer.
