Giant Pink SnailsThreaten Miami Beach Real Estate Market

Giant Pink Snails Threaten the Miami Beach Condo Market.

Giant pink snails measuring almost eight feet high have invaded tony Miami Beach, Florida! They can be seen singly and in pairs in every neighborhood of the city. ALmost forty-five have benn sighted so far.

Unlike their normal smaller counterparts, which are known to move rather slowly, these giant pink snails are incredibly fast. So fast, in fact, that their movements cannot be discerned by the human eye...they just appear to sit quietly still in all there pinkness along city streets and in public parks while actually capturing and eating the children of unwary tourists.

As you can see in the picture, two unsuspecting children are about to be consumed.

Giant Pink Snails Threaten Miami Beach Condo Market

All this high speed movement and mayhem is contributing to the troubled Miami Beach condo market. Condo owners have been seen staring glassy-eyed at the mammoth pink snails and signing contracts to sell there properties for pennies on the dollar...just to avoid the impending 99% slide and devaluation of all the condos values in Miami Beach.

Interviews with local official have yielded absolutely no plan to protect Miami Beach condo owners from these highly mobile, highly toxic and highly dangerous giant pink snails. These have just arrived on Thursday, November 18th, 2010...(which by the way, this is unofficially considered the start of the Miami Beach 2010/2011 Winter Season due to the thirty-eight percent increase in non-Florida licensed automobiles clogging the streets).

Currently, no one has seen these creatures copulating, but because of their high speed movement, it is possible that they are going to the many vacant Miami Beach condos and "doing it" out of sight in the middle of the night. Many condo owners have reported a low pitched "scooching" sound emanating from their empty neighbors apartments late at night. Concerns grow daily that as the giant pink snails start to reproduce that they will actually attempt to become residents of the city, buy condos and the apply for the homestead exemptions. The situation has gotten completely out of hand.

At a meeting of local raised-bed gardeners a call was put out for massive shipments of organic snail killer to be sprayed from orange Coast Guard helicopters but there is no money in the city budget to pay for this eradication.

Miami Bank Owned Foreclosure Condos can be GREAT Deals

<p>Miami Bank Owned Foreclosure Condos represent almost 34 percent of the annual Miami Multiple listing condo sales in 2010. The number of available condos for sale is being absorbed at an astonishing rate of every eighty days. This is a "SELLER'S MARKET" so one must be prepared and ready to go.</p>

<p> Often, these are the best priced properties in Miami, but one must be really ready to go in order to actually buy them. This includes arranging any financing requirements prior to searching for properties. It is also a good idea to find an experienced Realtor who works with banks regularly and knows how to navigate their process. Being an "all cash buyer" puts you at the front of the line.</p>

<p>When you are ready to get started, ask yourself several questions. Will this be my residence or an investment or second home? Do I need a property in great condition or will a "fixer-upper" be OK? What will I do when I buy it...Flip it or keep it ? You must set your goals before you start.<p>
