Re: A few Spring photos - 4/9/05

Who here thinks the value of Charlie's home is in the land itself?

In most cases, you would be right. But that house has to be a minimun of 10,000 square feet. In this case, I am gussing the lot is worth around $3-4 million, and the home probably in excess of 10 million. Comparatively speaking, our little fractional at Blue Mountain has around $80,000 structural and a $1.5-million land value.

JB, have you been drinking again? The house sits on 4 Gulf-Front lots in an upscale subdivision with Gulf-front lots priced around 4 million each, when available. Even if they were only $3Million each, that still totals to $12 Million.


By the way, has anyone ever noticed that each of the 4 lions, guarding the entrance to Paradise by the Sea, is missing a leg? Does anyone have 4 extra lion legs stashed at their beach house?

We noticed that while biking through there last year

Wow. That was certainly a polite reply. I have no idea how many lots it sits on, Joe. I have only seen the house from 30-A. Hard to tell size from that distance. My point was - and I think it's a valid one, that as a rule, land values normally surpass structural values for gulf-front lots. I guess I should apologize for getting into your area of expertise.

I'm just giving you a hard time. Thanks for handling it so well

I think he's succeeded!

Do I detect sarcasm from Lou who does not like the building?

If grading only on creativity, Charlie gets five stars. I guess he grew tired of seeing the same rectangular boxes being built over and over again. I don't think he has any right angles in that structure.

We like the house next door much better. I heard that it was Michael Jordan's but I doubt it. I've yet to hear anybody say "Hey, just ran into Michael Jordan walking down the beach" :roll:

There is a better chance that it is Brittany Spears' than Jordan's, but it is not hers either.
