A Message from Bobbie:
 

Greetings from the Reef where I have several good news items to report.  First, is the OR Club's real estate stimulus plan. Under the new incentive plan, a $40,000 credit will be issued to every buyer of a qualified property for the next 100 days.  A qualified property is one that is sold at $750,000 and under.  You can click below to read about it, but call me for the particulars, if you can take advantage of it.

Secondly, I'm happy to report that a dozen waterfront homes have flown off the shelf.  This is the best indication of a revived market. In fact, the first quarter of 2011 has surpassed the entire year of 2009!  At this rate, surely we will double it.  The smaller properties, docks and lots are still lagging a bit.  That could be because their values have fallen below that of the equity membership.  High-end condominiums, especially those with boat access, are having success.  Marina Village, Pumpkin Cay and Harbor House have all enjoyed sales that will keep values up.  Unlike homes, what helps a multi-million condo to sell is the condition and décor.  The current condo buyers have bought turn-key.  We still encourage trading of our luxury second homes, as one of the two properties is likely to fall into the slower category.

 

The floating dock project of our Marina has been postponed until the summer of 2012. 

We are on the upswing with the activity of the last 6 weeks and we have 6 weeks to go.    Now may be the time to make your move.  Equity ownership is the wave of the future. To own a slice of paradise and have the variety of amenities at your fingertips is the kind of quality of life Ocean Reef is recognized for. 

 

I look forward to seeing you around the Reef - Here's what's happening: This Week at the Reef

Neighborhood Spotlight


Harbour House "The Jewel of the Reef"


   Just a few years ago, Harbour House was tired and in decline. Then a dedicated and visionary condominium board, and buckets of homeowner cash, turned the community into a tropical paradise. The new amenities include: larger infinity pool with cascading spa overlooking their private marina, new roofs, siding, impact windows, commercial elevators, sprinkler system, fortified seawall and lush landscaping. And the Board did not stop there. They canvassed Florida for a top notch management company and brought them to the Reef so "The Jewel of the Reef" would stay that way. Harbour House now has on-site maintenance 7 days a week!
 
All of this luxury has had a positive effect on property values.
The last two Harbour House sales were $1,700,000 and $2,000,000. Both were turn-key penthouses.  Present listings range from $1,350,000 to $ 2,000,000.
 
If you are looking for luxury in a completely updated complex in a private park, your own 40 ft floating dock, come take a look at Harbour House 11, a penthouse with wonderful water views. $1,495,000 (see visual tour above)
