Point Clear, Alabama has been a resort destination since the mid-1800's, with modest summer cottages and elegant bay homes lining the coastline of Mobile Bay. The bay provides daily cool breezes and each day is concluded with a glorious sunset. There are many grand historical homes that have withstood the elements all these years, to include Miss Colleen's House, which was originally built in 1897 but has been known as Punta Clara Kitchen since 1952. This timeless business creates unique homemade candies, that are enjoyed all across the United States.

The Community of Malbis Real Estate and Living

The community of Malbis has a deep rooted history on Mobile Bay's eastern shore, dating back to the early 1900s. During this time, Greek immigrants selected the area as their new home and began to build new lives for themselves and many of their fellow countrymen soon followed. Community leaders opened the Malbis Memorial Church in 1965, a replica of a Byzantine church in Athens, Greece. The church was constructed of timeless materials, imported from an older world, and remains to this day as one of the most magnificent structures in Baldwin County, AL.

On the heals of Supper on the Sand, a first class event dedicated to the quality and safety of our local gulf seafood, spirits are running high with hope and signs of life in our coastal real estate market. Condo rental bookings are gaining ground and appear to be on par with last years numbers. On the sales side, it may be too early to declare a rebound, yet condo buyers are coming to town weekly to take advantage of the great deals available.

Our market showed signs of stabilizing prior to the gulf oil disaster in 2010, which led to widespread cancellations in rental bookings. The loss of rental income was likely the final straw for many of condo owners who were already struggling to make payments in the face of our horrible economic conditions, thus leading to an over-saturation of distressed properties. Foreclosures and Short Sales continue to pressure prices to fall, as much as an additional 20% after the oil spill, and some properties are listed for half as much as they were purchased for during the height of the market.

Buyers are targeting the distressed property deals, which will ultimately be the key to the stabilization of our market. With consumer confidence on the rise and prices as good as they are, buyers are climbing off the fence and opening their wallets. There was a time when a gulf front condo could not be bought for less $200,000 but those days are long gone, as deals on 2/2 condos are available for far less. This is an excellent time to invest in vacation property in both Orange Beach and Gulf Shores and take advantage of a summer season that is primed and ready to exceed all expectations!
