Looking for Gulffront Townhome

[beachyj]

I will be visiting the area the week of june 4th. I am coming specifically to look at property. I am looking for a gulf front townhome 2 or 3 bedrooms. Anyone know of someone who may be selling but has not listed with real estate MLS yet?

What price range are you looking at?

Thank you for your reply. I really have not determined a specific price range but have set requirements and will see what they cost when I begin looking. Looking for Townhome properties Gulffront off 30A. I seem to like the seagrove area but will consider other areas as well, as long as they meet all other requirments. Thanks!

By townhome, I guess you mean condo. There are only a handful of true townhomes, without condo associations. Maybe you mean smaller buildings. The 2+ bedrooms in small complexes are hard to come by these days.

Seacrest townhomes, walton dunes townhomes, Blue tide townhomes, those are townhomes right? 2-stories usually 2 bedrooms 2-21/2 baths. Although, I am beginning to warm up to the possibility of a condo in a very very small complex which I was really not open to before. Do you have any guidance you can offer? Or possibly any leads to properties for sale? Thanks for your responses.

Right. Some people say townhome when they mean condo, and the other way around. You have a lot of competition. A 2br th came on the market last week for the first time in a long time and sold the same day for $875k.

Was that by any chance BoothBay?? Since this is going to be an uphill battle for me, what do you suggest I do? Should I isolate what complexes I like and send letters to owners? I am willing to do the leg work and research. I am a hard worker and fast learner, so what do you think it will take to get what I want? Do you have any suggestions on units that you like better than others? I have decided that I would also consider a small condo complex as well, that should help I would think. Thanks again for all your responses!

That's right. If you are looking to buy something that is not for sale, you will pay a premium. Why not look at the ones that are currently for sale?

Owners get blanketed with letters from realtors and buyers. Better to know someone who is on top of things. A good realtor that specializes in what you want is a good person to know. And when I say good realtor I mean a GOOD realtor, not someone that was drawing a paycheck in Atlanta last month. :wink:
