Fort Myers Beach Short Sales listings

Investors, potential buyers from the USA, Canada and Europe often ask me if there are any single homes short sales in Fort Myers Beach. There are not many. The following are six of the few available as of July 17,2008.

The prices range from a low for the beach of $229K to an upscale home at $674,900. Lately, even lenders as Wells Fargo and Contrywide have change their tune and are more willing to "negotiate:.Its about time. Ppurchasinga short sale home is not as complicated as it used to be only some 6 months ago. Some lenders have cut down the short sale package drastically and low and behold, even will tell you what their bottom line price will be with an offer. About time! Either way, if you are working with an agent who has done them before and has been able to close on them, the chances are on your side.

In brief if you can buy a good short sale in Fort Myers, its certainly a very attractive way be an owner these days. I have seen banks responding to offers within 3 weeks. Nobody is crazy about them but they are not as bad as it seems. They are great opportunities. They are some of the better Fort Myers Beach home deals.
