September 27, 2009

Back in January I wrote about a nice one bedroom condo at Bay Tree on Siesta Key that had been foreclosed and was available for only $175,000.  That was a great deal so it was not surprising that it was purchased by one of the readers of this blog.  Now that the deal has closed and the condo has undergone some interior upgrades it is available for rent on an annual basis for only $900.00 per month. This rental is in a beach-to-bay condominium so it offers direct beach access as well as direct bay access and a boat dock.  If the Siesta Key lifestyle is for you, give us a call at 941-650-4626.

Siesta Key Condo, Bay Tree

January 28, 2009

Bay Tree condominiums on Siesta Key is one of the island’s best values. Bay Tree offers direct beach frontage, boat docks, beach cabanas and two pools. There is one beachfront building and two buildings on the bayside of Midnight Pass Road. Currently there are some very opportunities including one of Siesta Key’s lowest priced full Gulf view two bedroom units which is currently priced at $399,000. I always like to look at the entry level properties in good areas and so I am particularly fond of the one bedroom unit that is currently listed with another broker in MLS for only $173,900. It is a bank-owned unit that is assessed at $248,000. The current asking price is bellow the price at which units like this were selling in 2002.   This is a very good value.   The unit can easily be rented in the winter time for about $3,000 per month. The quarterly assessments are $933. A great deal for a condominium with beach access and boat docks.  There is no property on Siesta Key that is priced lower and offers more amenities.  If you are interested in this property give me a call at 941-650-4626.
