Press Release Body = Waterfront properties throughout the Florida Keys are being grabbed up by developers who understand the value in building multi million-dollar homes with spectacular views of Florida Bay, the Atlantic Ocean and the smaller inlets that connect those waters to the Florida Keys. Islamorada, Florida May 22nd, 2007 -- In order to preserve public access to the waters through Boat ramps, Monroe County (The Florida Keys) is considering purchase of properties that already offer dockage and that have large enough space for Boat trailers turning radius. One of the main reasons they are looking for established properties is that it\'s extremely difficult to win state and federal approvals for new docks.
Because the Key Largo and Islamorada area offers some of the best fishing and diving, the upper Keys are one of the areas Monroe county leaders are currently considering for property purchases.
When asked for her opinion about all this, Islamorada REALTOR, Jan Keller remarked: I think it\'s great that the county is approaching it this way. With all of the development just north in Homestead and South Miami, we are seeing increased pressure on our water access. Especially open water homes, due to second Home Buyers and especially Investors. So what the County is doing will really help maintain public access to our incredible water recreation.
When asked about the sales in the Keys and if there was a slump. Jan further remarked: There has certainly been a price adjustment and that did stall the market somewhat.
However, now that pricing has settled, homes are selling either in the Lower price brackets of under $500,000 or in the upper brackets from about 1 million five and up. Lots of smart buyers are coming in now and looking for investments, 1031 exchanges and second homes.
