"Each problem has hidden in it"

"an opportunity so powerful that it literally dwarfs the problem.  The greatest success stories were created by people who recognized a problem and turned it into an opportunity."  Joseph Sugarman

There are several opportunities right here in Cocoa Beach.  The canal home on Trinidad Rd, which is a 3/2 and priced at $284,900 is now under contract.

However some new listings have definite possibilites.

29 Riverview Ln is a foreclosure and priced at $319,900.  This home is a 3/2 on a canal with a pool and 2 car garage.

49 Crystal River Dr is a large 4/2 with 2395 square feet on the canal with pool.  This home is priced at $325,000 and sits on a 1/4 acre lot.

"Spend 80% of your time"

"focusing on the opportunites of tomorrow rather than the problems of yesterday"  Brian Tracy 

As of this writing there are now 41 single family homes on the market in Cocoa Beach/Cape Canaveral.  Priced from $124,900 all the way up to $1,400,000.  28 of these homes are on the water and naturally these are the higher priced homes.

One of properties is very interesting.  A home on Nassau Road has been on the market for years and originally was listed at $1,400,000 with the main house and a cottage sitting on .71 acre on the Banana River.  The property has fantastic views with a pool. 
This property is now listed as two separate properties with the main house on 1 lot listed at $859,000 and the cottage listed on another at $500,000 and after you split the property the cottage would sit on a lot 80' wide and around 180' deep.  Together they would be $1,359,000 or a $41,000 reduction on the original listing.  The cottage is described as historical, built in 1963 I don't know why it is historical.

I believe it would be much better with highest and best use of the property to leave as one property and lower the price to market value.

Picture is of a waterfront listing we have on Bahama in Cocoa Beach.  4 bedroom 2 bath with pool, canal and the price is reduced to $380,000.

Our inventory of single family homes in Cocoa Beach is now down to 35 homes.  This is getting rather low. 

Of these listings 26 are on the water either canal, river or ocean.  These homes are priced from $249,900 to $1,399,000.  Only 5 are over $1,000,000 which is a lower number than usual with 2 of these on the river and 3 on the ocean.

That leaves 9 homes not on the water and priced from $249,900 to $479,900 and a couple of these are dogs.  The one at $479,900 is a 2 story home with mother in law suite that is 250' from the ocean, I think this one is definitely worth a look.

Even though the mortgage rates have risen a little bit, under 4% is still possible so buying a home is definitely doable for many more people.

Thousand Islands Cocoa Beach
One of the more popular homes in Cocoa Beach and Merritt Island is a moderately priced waterfront home.

In Cocoa Beach this year there are currently 23 waterfront homes on the market priced from $261,000 to $1,399,000.  So far this year there have been 44 waterfront homes sold from $160,000 to $1.250,000.  They don't last long.

Everyone needs listings as our inventory continues to shrink.

As we say at Walker Bagwell Properties "you can eat fast food or eat gourmet, you can also list with a franchise or list with a personal real estate company"

Did you know that Realogy owns Better Homes and Garden Real Estate, Century 21, Coldwell Banker, ERA and Sotheby's International Realty?
