Well not surprisingly the two great properties from last month that have fantastic rental income on Frank, Scott & Al’s Great Buy’s, 4807 2nd Ave. Holmes Beach at $1,174,000 (recently reduced) and 119 Neptune Lane. Holmes Beach at $1,499,000 have both gone under contract. 4807 2nd Ave. Does $90,000 in gross annual rental income and 119 Neptune Lane does $130,000. The three of our listings that recently went under contract 722 Key Royale, 517 Key Royale and 105 Oak Ave will be closing within the next 2 Few days. Again if you’re looking for one of the newer condos which also rents very well you should
consider 7316 Gulf Drive at La Casa Costiera #8 in Holmes Beach. It is a 2,136 square foot, 3 bedroom 3 bath condo with private garage and private elevator and partial gulf views overlooking the pool. Call me for more information on these or other real estate opportunities.
To summarize the Anna Maria Island market for the first seven months of 2017 demand is very high and the inventory keeps shrinking and is at historic lows. The fast start we got off to is continuing and looks like it will continue into the immediate future. Again, pended properties continue in a very healthy pace which continues to bode well for future sales. Pended properties (properties under contract) are at 49 (SF-31, Con-14, Dup – 2 & Lot-2). Distressed properties continue to be non-existent with no distressed properties in the current inventory.
