Grande Pointe Lot 83, short sale, in Inlet Beach, off 30-A in Santa Rosa Beach, Florida, just sold for $90,000. This was a Regions Bank short sale. WHAT? A short sale in today’s market? It doesn’t happen often, but there are still some cases along the Emerald Coast of Florida where prices have not caught up (yet) to the market as it was in 2005. There are probably only pockets of instances where this could occur. In the Grande Pointe subdivision, lots were selling for around $350,000 in 2005. Now they are “skyrocketing” from a low in the $30,000 range in 2012, to over $100,000 today. The funny thing is, I worked on a short sale for this property back in 2012. At the time, the short sale lender, Regions, would not accept a fair market value offer. This year, they did.
I’ll copy what I wrote in my original blog post from 2012 here:
Gorgeous building lot in elegant Grande Pointe subdivision in Inlet Beach. You will be enchanted by this neighborhood in Santa Rosa Beach Florida.
