At the time there were no zoning laws to prevent the developer from doing what developers like to do: develop! While subsequent condominium towers were being built, the City and its 26,000 citizens were deciding that never again would a developer come into Coronado and build monster towers in its domain. Buildings now are limited to a height of 40-feet or three stories, which is part of what makes Coronado the small, quaint beach enclave that it is. There are 140+ units in each of the ten towers. Each tower has a name and its own web site (some web sites are under construction): There are four swimming pools and four spas, although only three pools and three spas are heated. Each day at 8:00 a.m., the temperatures of the heated pools and spas are posted online right here. As of February 5, 2010, there are 27 units for sale at Coronado Shores, ranging in size from 705 square feet (1 br/1 ba) to 2,900 square feet (3 br/3 ba). Prices range from $700,000 to $3,900,000. HOA fees range from about $500 monthly to about $1,200 monthly.

My favorite ActiveRain Groups: ActiveRain Convention StationWay back in the 1960s and 1970s, a condo developer (probably from Florida) decided that the City of Coronado needed ten 15-story luxury condominium towers overlooking the city and its famous beaches.
While the first tower was being built, the City tried to enforce a 40-foot height limit, but there was no law in place stating such a limit. The City lost, and the first tower was completed in June 1971.
Each tower also has its own Condominium Association, and the common areas and recreation facilities are managed by the Coronado Shores Landscaping and Recreation Committee.

Hello and Welcome to ~Coronado Shores~ Coronado California Foreclosures, Bank Owned REO, Homes for Sale, Real Estate.

Understanding the foreclosure property auction (also known as Trustee Sale) process takes time, due diligence, and understanding. Saavy Real Estate investors can find some of the best deals around buying at these auctions, but is it right for everyone? We would like to help explain further about these auctions and the benefits and downsides of buying Real Estate at them.
Understanding the process is the key, and here is how the process goes as an overview:
Pre-Foreclosure (Also known as Notice of Default). Pre-Foreclosure is usually when the current homeowner is 90 days past due on their Mortgage. The current lender files with the County Recorders office a Notice of Default. When this is filed, this information becomes a matter of public record. When this notice is filed the lender usually usally gives the homeowner 90 days to come current on the amound their are past due. During this period a good amount of homeowners lately have been trying to obtain new financing terms by doing a Loan Modification with their current lender or a Short Sale with a Realtor if they know they aren't going to be able to keep up the payments due to hardship. Both of these things often times delay the foreclosure process as the bank looks to work with the current owner to see if one of these options may be a fit.

Foreclosure Sale (Alo known as Notice of Trustee Sale). The Foreclosure sale usally occurs and is scheduled roughly 90 days after the Notice of Default is issues. Although, most of the time this process is delayed currently. Notice of Trustee sale usally takes place on the courthouse steps in the County in which the property is located. In this case, most auctions take place in Downtown, San Diego. Properties are sold as is, without any warranties or guarantees, and they must be paid for on the spot with a certified cashiers check. Many times the buyer of that foreclosure property has to end up evicting the current homeowner or tenant and this sometimes can be a process. However, even though its a riskier process, the reward can be great. To learn more about Foreclosure Sales In ~Coronado Shores~ Coronodo and Search upcoming properties scheduled for Foreclosure click here or yellow map below.
Bank Owned (REO). Bank owned properties are the properties that have gone through the two steps above and didn't sell at the Foreclosure Sale. In this case, the current lender has to take them back if there are no acceptable bids. This can also be a great area for an investor, because in a lot of cases, the lender does not want to own these properties. These can be great deals for an investor, you can also research these properties in greater detail than Foreclosure Auctions, and most all of the time you can use financing and obtain a home warranty with these. To learn more about Bank Owned REO listings in ~Coronado Shores~ Coronado click here or the yellow map below.
Re-Sale Properties. Many people think Re Sale properties are not a great deal with all the Foreclosure properties out there. This is actually not true in many cases. Re Sales have to be priced aggresively and in line with Foreclosures if they want to have a chance of selling in todays market. In a lot of cases a buyer or investor can buy a re sale that has been taken good care of, doesn't have much fix up to perform, and is very close in price to that of a Foreclosure that might require a lot of work. Sometimes people think that because they are buying a Foreclosure at 20% below market value that its always a steal, however sometimes there is 20% worth of rehabilitation to get the property back to standards that actually makes it the same deal as a re-sale. Making Re Sales a great option as well. To learn more about Re Sale Homes for Sale in ~Coronado Shores~ Coronado click here or the yellow map below.

Years ago, when I first considered moving to Southern California from Houston, I used to stay with friends at the Coronado Shores on Coronado–which sat just across the bay from downtown San Diego.
My friends’ Coronado Shores condo didn’t overlook the San Diego skyline (which it might have done had it been across the hall); rather, it overlooked the Pacific Ocean and the glorious beach below.
These Coronado high rises reminded me of the oceanfront complexes in Fort Lauderdale and Pompano Beach, where my parents lived at the time.
Just as with the Pompano Beach Club, I loved the secure and guarded entry, the lovely lobby, and the elevator which whipped us up to one of the upper floors. I loved stepping into the unit and never tired of seeing the immediate eye-popping view of the blue ocean out the balcony sliding glass door.
I loved these high rise buildings in Coronado years ago, and still do today.
The Coronado Shores complex stands adjacent to and just south of the famed Hotel del Coronado. It is an oceanfront enclave of ten 15-story high rise condominium buildings. Each building is run by its own association, and has its own common areas and recreation facilities.
Built in the 1960’s and 1970’s, the Shores are highly desired because of the views they offer and their exquisite location at one of the finest beaches in the world. It is also difficult to imagine that luxury high rises such as these could be built along any San Diego beach today.
