key west short sale: First Three Quarters Real Estate Sales Report - Key West - 09/30/12 04:24 AM

  I just did a quick review of the real estate sales for the Island of Key West for the first nine months of 2012. Shall we celebrate with a Key West "segar" and some Mumm's champagne?
I did not include any sales on Stock Island, the golf course, or any house, condo, trailer, etc. located east of Cow Key Channel. The reason I did this is that when potential buyers want to buy a place in Key West they tend to resist even looking at anything off the island itself. It usually takes a more open and accepting buyer … (0 comments)

key west short sale: 819 Terry Lane - Short Sale - Key West - Back on the Market - 08/01/12 03:22 AM
819 Terry Lane - Key West
I wrote about  819 Terry Lane in the Bahama Village section of Key West right after it was listed on March 27th as a short sale.  I showed the house several times and got several phone calls and emails from interested buyers. I knew the house would go under contract very quickly as the price was low and the house had so much to offer potential buyers.  The property did go under contract. But the property went back on the market late Tuesday. Now you dilly-dallers have a second chance. The listing agent describes this … (2 comments)

key west short sale: Fool's Gold - 05/01/12 08:27 AM
 

 
In the next couple of days I will blog about the results of the past Key West real estate selling season. I thought it worth while to discuss a re-emerging facet of Key West real estate and that is the return of the greedy sellers.  Maybe they never went away. Maybe they just hid sheepishly, lingering in the background, awaiting the right moment to re-appear from their sulk-fest after the American economy spiraled out of control in 2008.
