You Can't Judge a Book By It's Cover...$120,000 List Price

I was previewing a townhome in a gated community for one of my clients yesterday and was amazed by 2 things.

1. How many excellent opportunities there are for buyers.  Those that don't act now will probably wish they did in the future.  The townhome I viewed was in great condition and was LISTED for less than its replacement cost.  I emphasize 'listed' because there's a great chance it can be purchased for less...if not much less than the list price. Anytime you can buy properties for less than the replacement cost, you know you are buying right.
2. Like many things in life, you can't judge a book by it's cover.  This short sale property was listed in the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) with a single picture of the front.  That's all the listing agent provided....what a disservice!!! Consider your perception of the property with just a single frontal photo vs. the frontal photo and all of the attached interior photos which I took???

There are great opportunities out there so be careful not to prejudge based off the lack of quality and / or number of photos taken by the listing agent. Make sure you're working with a buyer's agent who's looking out for your best interest to find the best deals out there.

The Number One Reason to Live

In Cape Coral

Water!

There are approximately 400 miles of canals within the City. Of this, approximately 295 miles are considered as freshwater and about 105 miles provide access to the Gulf of Mexico.

There's just no place like it. Where else can you walk out your back door, get in your boat, and spend a day at some of the most beautiful beaches in Florida. Or, if your preference is recreational fishing, the opportunities are endless. People will drive for hours to go to the Keys and we have it in our own back yard.
