Lake Vista condos, Lakewood Ranch
June 16, 2010 by Perry Corneau · Leave a Comment
Lake Vista is one of the best values in Lakewood Ranch, Sarasota and Manatee Counties. These wonderful luxury condominiums were completed after the market’s downturn in 2006 at which time all but 25 units were sold. Those remaining unsold units having gone to auction and being purchased by a single investor has caused the community to become ineligible for Fanie Mae funding. The result has been dramatically declining values as “cash” buyers have been purchasing the short sales and foreclosure from the original buyers.
The association is in good financial standing and luxury three bedroom condominiums with granite counter tops, tile floors, stainless appliances, crown moldings, high ceilings, quality wood cabinets and more are being purchased for about $100 per square foot. these are fantastic deals. Give me a call at 941-650-4626. I will be happy to answer your questions.
