Sand Key Waterfront Condos for Sale - Now Selling 3 times faster ~ Beach Real Estate Report

"Sand Key FL Real Estate is unique since it is a small waterfront community in Clearwater Florida. It has one 2 lane road that is a little over a mile long.

Sand Key real estate is comprised of the Gulf of Mexico / Beach on one side and the Intercoastal Waterway / Clearwater Harbor on the other. Everyday someone calls or emails us asking for Clearwater beach or Sand Key real estate bargains. Yes there are bargains but they're not giving it away. 

Realize they aren't making anymore waterfront on Clearwater Beach or anywhere else - so oceanfront demand will always exist and after a lull in sales we are seeing properties selling again. In May we saw sales of condos jump up from the low of 4 Sand Key condos sold in March at 82% of asking price to 12 Sand Key condos sold last month at 91.85% of their asking price.

Tampa Bay Florida Commercial Real Estate Going to the Dogs

Tampa Bay Florida ~ Commercial offices will have some unexpected guests this Friday, June 22, 2007 - Our commercial Tampa Bay real estate will go to the dogs because Friday is the 9th Annual Take Your Dog to Work Day in Tampa Bay Florida.

take you dog to work day in tampa bay florida

Take Your Dog to Work Day was started 9 years ago by Pet Sitters International to "celebrate canine companionship" - they wanted to show co-workers that don't own dogs the joy a dog can bring into your life.

Historically, Pet Sitters International's goal has been to take the day and have fun while putting the focus on the benefits of owning a dog and helping to motivate people to take action and adopt many of the dogs currently in Tampa Bay area shelters or Humane Societies. Our shelters are typically fuller in the summer months.   

If you still want to be part of this years "woof-friendly workday" to www.petsit.com to get all the information you need to participate - there's still time to get permission from the company's top dog and participate on Friday.

After a long day at the office or during the Dog Days of Summer you may enjoy playing with your canine friend at one of the many Tampa Bay Dog Parks. 

Anyone planning to take your dog to your Real Estate office this Friday?

Tampa Beaches

ben t davis beach tampa florida 

National Clean Beaches Week this year is the week of June 29th - July 5th, 2007. Everyone's getting in on the action. The goal is to focus on our beaches and help keep them beautiful by encouraging local residents to get involved and make a difference. 

Mayor Pam Iorio has made this week  - Clean Beaches Week for the City of Tampa in Hillsborough County. Locals are invited to join the City of Tampa Parks and Recreation Department and the Mayor's Beautification Program for planned beach clean up projects.

 

 

Tampa Florida Beach Clean-Up

They will be working at the following Tampa beaches from 8:30am-10:30am on Thursday July 5th:

  • Ben T. Davis Beach located at 1701 Courtney Campbell Causeway Tampa, Florida
  • Picnic Island Beach located at 7409 Picnic Island Blvd, Tampa Florida

 Gloves, water and trash bags will be provided by the City of Tampa.

 They planned these clean-up projects to correspond with the 4th of July - when thousands come and enjoy the beaches and many leave trash behind. 
ben t davis beach tampa florida

The City of Tampa explains that "Clean Beaches Week in Tampa is designed to recognize the environmental and recreational value of our beaches. During this week, beachgoers are asked to

  1. leave no trace at the beach,
  2. walk one mile on the beach,
  3. enjoy one healthy seafood meal, and
  4. swim, surf, boat responsively. "

Clearwater Real Estate Agent explains Save our Homes

Save our Homes explained by Cyndee Haydon, Realtor ~ Clearwater, Florida

clearwater beach florida waterfront real estate 

When working with First-time home buyers and families moving and relocating to Clearwater, Clearwater Beach and the Tampa Bay area they usually have lots of questions about how Save or Homes and local property taxes works. Here's some info I hope you'll find helpful...

Back in January 1995 the Florida Constitution was amended to create a cap on rising property values which are used to calculate our Florida property taxes on homes and condos. This amendment now limits annual increases of the assessed property value to 3% or to the Consumer Price Index, whichever is lower.  It's important to note that this cap is applied ONLY to the property value - not the property taxes. Property taxes could actually rise more than 3% depending on your city or towns approved budget.

When a property such as a home or condo is sold any existing property value cap and exemption are removed at the end of that calendar year. Then the property taxes are calculated on the full market value called Just Market Value. ..So, if a property owner applies for and receives Homestead Exemption for 2007, the Assessed Value will be capped in 2008. The Biggest Mistake we see Home and condo Buyers make is...
