There are currently 211 available condo listings in Pembroke Pines, Florida with age restrictions of 55+. Prices range from a mere $17,900. to $138,500. This, my friends, is the kiss of real estate death. How many of you out there currently live and work in an area with age restricted condos? Has it helped or hurt the market?
My experience has shown that these age restricted developments were once a good idea, but now gone horribly bad. They are a lousy investment above all. My philosophy concerning these units is this; A retiree purchases one and everything is wonderful with him and all of his playmates until one day he up and dies. The kids usually inherit the unit if he or she has any. They then find out that renting or selling to anyone under 55 is out of the question, so now they are limited to who they can sell to in a down market. So they just dump it for whatever they can get to rid themselves of the problem. Even if you're not dead and God help you if you need to sell for any other reason. Now, your little retirement nest egg is gone, gone, gone. See where I am going with this?
Typically, I have found that those who inherit these units end up selling for pennies on a dollar just to get rid of them because the maintenance is eating them up while the place sits vacant! And besides, a 70 year old retiree is not going to spend big money on a condo that is not on the beach, especially if he or she knows they don't have much time left on this earth. They want a deal! I have sold them before, but I always warn those who are investors that they are taking a big risk. The only people making money in these places are the associations. My advice, and I'd love yours out there too, is to be sure you get a fantastic price on one of these if you must live there and enjoy all the benefits that come with it as much as possible. Get your money's worth. But don't buy as an investment if you want to keep your sanity.
