Great Value in Ritz Carlton Residences

Monday, November 14th, 2011 at 10:00am. 713 Views, 0 Comments.

I had the pleasure of seeing a great value in the Ritz Carlton Residences recently. The above photo is the main view from virtually every room in the condo including the living room, den, dining room, kitchen and both bedrooms. Out on the balcony of this condo and looking west you will see lovely views of St. Armands Circle, Bird Key and Lido Key. For more photos visit - 1111 Ritz Carlton Drive, #1404, Sarasota, FL.

This Ritz Carlton condo is listed by Fernando Viteri of Signature Sotheby's Realty. It might seem odd of me to promote another agents listing but Fernando is a friend and I occasionally like to point out good values when I see them.

Sarasota Condos with Water Views

Sarasota condos with water views

How would you like to enjoy the sunset view above every evening? This view was taken from the Condo on the Bay community in downtown Sarasota, Florida. There are varying degress of water views. Obviously, the condos that sit right on the water offer the most unobstructed views. However, many of these condos are a longer walk from the heart of downtown. If you want a building with an easier walk to all of the amenities of downtown then you might be interested in the condo buildings off the water and on the interior of downtown. 1350 Main, for example, offers some fabulous water, marina and bridge views from the west side and north side of the building. The views are obstructed by some building but still considered by many to be magnificent yet it is…

Just Sold - Hudson Landings

Tuesday, September 6th, 2011 at 10:06am. 831 Views, 0 Comments.

I just sold this really great condo in downtown Sarasota. Many people don't know about this hidden gem. It is called Hudson Landings and it is a small enclave of just 12 cozy units. The great thing about this community is the close proximity to all of the amenities that downtown Sarasota has to offer as well as private boat docks. Hudson Landings sits on Hudson Bayou which leads out to the Sarasota bay and Gulf of Mexico. This is one of the few condo communities in downtown Sarasota that offers boat docks.

Downtown Sarasota Condos

Downtown Sarasota is a very desirable place to call home.  Residents are in the center of the city’s activity and can easily take advantage of Sarasota’s wide array of restaurants, the weekend farmer’s market, and cultural attractions like the opera – right outside their front doors! 

Over the past few months there has been a definite decrease in the number of available homes throughout Sarasota, and the number of downtown condos priced below about $350,000 (see the graph below) has gone down even more dramatically.  In buildings like 1350 Main, which three months ago had at least three or four 2-bedroom condo listings for under $400,000, the least expensive 2-bedroom is listed for $479,000.  This is the same as…

New Sarasota Beach Condos

Everyone wants them. We get requests for them all of the time.
