Most Expensive Short Sales and Foreclosures Sold on 30a and Destin 2014

I have been tracking bank owned property and foreclosures for many years, and in 2014 we experienced a drastic decline in bank owned properties. I personally sold only two bank owned properties out of over 39 closed transactions in 2014. This was a significant decline and is a sign of the market recovery process. Foreclosures on 30A were down with only 31 REOs sold in 2014 compared to 48 in 2013 and 77 in 2012.

What does this all mean? Foreclosures are declining and many of the properties are high profile properties and thus the buying process gets very competitive. For example, 39 Sailfish came on the market in Seacrest Beach as an REO. There were over seven offers in 48 hours and I personally brought in 4 offers on the property which eventually sold for $50K over the asking price.

2014 had some very expensive REOs sell in 30A and Destin, however, nothing will beat the volume of Bank Owned Property in 2012.

2014 – REOs Sold Over $1 Million: 5 totaling $8,675,000
2013 – REOs Sold Over $1 Million: 6 totaling $8,270,785
2012 – REOs Sold Over $1 Million: 10 totaling $18,691,000

Premier Development Parcel on the Emerald Coast – Sunset Pass at Lake Powell

Sunset Pass at Lake Powell is the Emerald Coast’s Premier Waterfront Development Parcel

IMG_2865During the real estate market boom in 2004 and 2005, development parcels were the most coveted real estate. Developments  on Scenic 30A, Destin and Panama City Beach would be instant cash cows for the savvy developers. When the market crashed many of the prime developments were left unfinished or completely abandoned and became bank owned property. In 2011 many investors realized the potential of purchasing development tracts along the Emerald Coast. DR Horton and Kolter Homes bought many of the developments and the Emerald Coast has since becomes DR Horton’s #1 selling market in the country.

Sunset Pass has been off the market since 2006 while it’s owners waited out the market downturn. It is truly one of the last hidden gems on the Emerald Coast. With it’s ideal location, gulf and sunset views, this exceptional development site represents a once in a lifetime opportunity to own a race piece of Florida waterfront property.

Sunset Pass is an exceptional and rare investment opportunity to acquire one of the most highly desired waterfront development parcels in the Florida Panhandle.

Located on the eastern end of Philips Inlet on Lake Powell, this 39 acre site was recently approved for a 117-lot residential PUD with 22 waterfront parcels and boasts approximately 1,721 linear feet of water-frontage. Prime location convenient to Scenic Hwy 30A including Rosemary Beach and Alys Beach; Pier Park; and the Northwest Florida Beaches International Airport. With 39 contiguous waterfront acres and its stunning, unobstructed sunset views over the Gulf of Mexico and Lake Powell, Sunset Pass sets itself apart as one of the most highly desirable development sites on the Emerald Coast as well as the largest available from Destin to Panama City Beach.

Seacrest Beach REO for $599K

39 Sailfish Street in Seacrest Beach is a SunTrust REO

Sold for $650K in August 2014 by Team Baranowski. Multiple offers!

There are very few bank owned properties available that will come on the market in Seacrest Beach after the influx of distressed real estate in 2010 and 2011. 39 Sailfish Street was listed as a short sale in 2013 for $799,000 and was under contract when it foreclosed. The property has since foreclosed and is owned by SunTrust and is now a bank owned property and listed for $599K.

A lot has changed to the property since it was originally listed as a short sale. The property is in need of some TLC as many of the interior finishes have been removed. The cabinet panels and drawers have been removed in the kitchen and many of the fixtures and sinks have been removed. This is the bad news. The good news is that a savvy buyer can snatch this property up at a fantastic price on a home in Seacrest Beach. It is hard to envision what the home would look like fixed up based upon its current state. However, I am posting photos that I took last year when it was a short sale.

If you are looking for a great buy on a distressed property on Scenic 30A, this is a great home to consider. 39 Sailfish is one of the larger homes in Seacrest Beach and has a carriage house. This 5 bedroom / 5 bath home is 3,059sf and is priced at $196/sf which is well below the current $260/sf to $300/sf selling price point in Seacrest Beach. With its convenient location on the eastern end of 30A in Seacrest Beach, you are walking distance to Rosemary Beach and the shops at the Village in Seacrest which includes the new Acme Ice House and La Cocina.

This home will not last long. Contact Craig Baranowski @ 850-259-1788 for more details.

Most Expensive Short Sales and Foreclosures Sold on 30A and Destin 2013

2013 was a game changer for foreclosures and short sales along the Emerald Coast. Foreclosures have skyrocketed in popularity with the ease of purchasing and lender incentives offered to prospective purchasers. These bank owned properties were highly sought after by buyers and created a purchasing frenzy in the market. I sold 52 properties in 2013 and many were bank owned REOs. Almost everyone of the foreclosures involved a highly competitive bidding scenario, one REO had 24 offers in 12 hours being on the market. It takes a savvy agent and a determined buyer to snatch these properties up. I will write up a post on shorts sales and foreclosures and how the market has changed in the next few weeks. In the meantime, enjoy the Most Expensive Short Sales and Foreclosures sold on 30A and Destin in 2013 list!

Every now and then a special property comes along that makes you dream about what it would be like to own that special spot. And every now and then an investment opportunity comes along that screams “solid endeavor”. Now imagine combining those two elements…doesn’t happen often, but it does. 304 Ruskin Place in Seaside Florida has that unique magic of not only being a solid investment opportunity but also a charming property that would bring many happy memories.

Ruskin place is located on the north side of Seaside’s town village. It is comprised of galleries, studios, private residences, and rental units. With white lights strung across the courtyard, the setting is something out of Charleston or Savannah. With only sixteen of these row houses’, each one taking on a personality of its own, it is very rare for one of these to come on the market…even more rare to come on the market as an REO or Distressed Property.

This three story row house could be used for a variety of live/work situations. The first floor has a full kitchen, bedroom, bath, and living area. Most commonly this floor is used as either retail space or as a single rental unit that could easily sleep a family of five. In past years this first floor lock-out was used to generate rental income in excess of 44,000 gross rental income.

The second floor is comprised of two terraces for outside living, living space with a cozy fireplace, walk-through kitchen with french doors, wet-bar, and a second living or dining area. Travel to the third floor and you are greeted with two bedrooms, each with their own ample sized bathroom. The master bedroom has it’s own over-sized deck to enjoy Seaside as well. From the third floor, take the spiral staircase up to the rooftop terrace. While on the rooftop terrace one is able to see all of Seaside and the Gulf of Mexico. With built-in bookcases and closets in corners, this townhouse makes use of every inch of available space.

Combining both modern and traditional elements, all the while maintaining the most unique artistic elements this townhouse will surely have you taking a second look.

Within walking distance to the chapel or to the ice cream shop, the opportunities for this property are endless. Ruskin Place has the highest concentration of full-time residents giving the true sense of community. With back street parking and reasonable HOA fees, this could be a viable living solution for a full time resident or a part time resident. Live the dream, live in Seaside, live at Ruskin Place.

With foreclosures and REOs in short supply, this Seaside bank owned property will not last long. For more information on 304 Ruskin Place in Seaside Florida please call Craig Baranowski 850-259-1788 or Tracy Baranowski 850-259-4270 or email us info@teambaranowski.com.

Rosemary Beach Lis Pendens This is a very positive sign for our market and signals a massive shift in our market. It is my opinion that 2012 will see the market shift that has been slowly turning for the past 12 months. 2012 has already been a fantastic year with my buyers rushing in to get the last of the great buys.
