            <description> <![CDATA[ 
Clients of mine just purchased a great unit in the Beachplace condo complex on Longboat Key. This unit is a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom, 1,503 square foot condo directly on the beach looking west over the tranquil blue waters of the Gulf of Mexico. This was a Longboat Key short sale.


It was originally listed in September of 2010 for $941,500. In November of 2010 the price was dropped to $725,000. In December of 2010 the unit went under contract. In April of 2011 the condo came back on the market and was priced at $652,500. A couple of days later the condo went under contract again. Last month, in November, the short sale was finally approved however they buyer had walked from the transaction. The bank approved the sale at $650,000. My buyers came in and purchased the condo.


$1,275,000 down to $650,000


For those of you who think $650,000 is too expensive keep in mind that this unit sold for $1,275,000 in 2006.

            <title>Just Sold - Home in the Meadows</title>
            <description> <![CDATA[ 
Congratulations to Allison Werner for her recent sale at 4964 Greencroft Road in the Meadows neighborhood. This single family home with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a swimming pool, 1,384 square feet and was built in 1986.


The home was listed for $179,000 and closed for $157,500 (public record). It only took 18 days to get the successful contract on this home. Kudos to the listing Realtor and seller for putting this home on the market at the proper price.


It is refreshing to see a property put on the market at the right price instead of overpricing it and then gradually dropping the price down to "market value".


Today's home values are based on what similar properties have recently sold for, what the seller is willing to take, what the buyer is willing to pay and finally the asking prices of other similar homes currently for sale.
