These condos were built in 2006 and have all the bells and whistles including a boat slip! They range in size from 1,093 square feet to over 2300. The units that are selling absolute are only the 1 and 2 bedroom units. There is a 3 bedroom available for purchase, however, there is a minimum reserve.
It's always extremely interesting to see what prices these auctions bring! The last canal front auction brought such low prices the auctioneer stopped selling them!! However, the ones that did sell are now the new market value. The last auction sold 4 canal front condos absolute at an average of $136/sq ft. (They were supposed to sell 10 but stopped after selling 4).
The condos that are selling this Saturday are nicer and have more square footage although less bedrooms.
Let me know if you are interested and I'll get all the information for you!!

THIS IS A LOT OF ACTION in just one week FOR OUR LITTLE AREA OF MEXICO BEACH IN THE OFF SEASON!

Here’s a number for you: average sales price this year is 53% of 2005; that's right, almost cut in half!!!
If looking for some good news in the continued price erosion, it might be that the decline is less than half of what it was last year; down “only” 12% as compared with last year’s 25% plunge.
_________________________________________
There are still some good deals out there! Interest rates are not going to stay this low for ever!!!
