42 Trimingham Lane in Rosemary Beach Last of the REOs

Is this the last REO or Bank Owned Property in Rosemary Beach? As of today, this is the ONLY REO in Rosemary Beach available on the market. This does not mean that there will not be anymore foreclosures in Rosemary, however, I can say that last year there were over 23 distressed properties sold and new foreclosure starts in Rosemary Beach are almost nonexistent.

In 2009 there were 21 foreclosure starts in Rosemary Beach and in 2011 there were only 3, which represents an 85% reduction in foreclosure starts. 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.

42 Trimingham could be one of the last REOs in Rosemary Beach for a long time. This small cottage in Rosemary Beach overlooks Triangle Park. With close proximity to the Sky Pool, Fitness Center and Tennis, you will be just steps away from Rosemary amenities. Designed by Piazza Architecture, this home exudes charm and quality. Inside you will find wood and tile floors throughout, high ceilings, solid surface countertops and a stunning tower with built in beds. Outside is a refreshingly large 10×20 pool just waiting for an evening party.  If you are looking to purchase in Rosemary Beach for under $700K, this may be the last window of opportunity to do so. This property will not last thru the weekend!

For more information on 42 Trimingham Lane in Rosemary Beach please call Craig Baranowski 850-259-1788 or Tracy Baranowski 850-259-4270 or email us info@teambaranowski.com.

19 Spanish Town Lane is a Short Sale in Rosemary Beach!

As we near the end of 2012 I am beginning to sound like a broken record every time I speak with clients. “Distressed inventory is depleted, foreclosures are selling quickly, short sales are drying up in some communities”…clients looks at me as if I was speaking a foreign language. If you listen to the media there is a glut of distressed shadow inventory and a huge wave of foreclosures that is going to sweep our nation. However, if you look at our sales transactions and the amount of distressed inventory you will see a different picture.

There was a time when we have dozens of distressed properties in every community along 30A, including Rosemary Beach, WaterColor, WaterSound and Seacrest Beach. Going through our MLS we currently have 3 short sales in Rosemary Beach and no foreclosures. WaterColor there are only 6 distressed properties on the market. This is a severely depleted number from 2009 and 2010 and the distressed inventory is going away. 19 Spanish Town Lane in Rosemary Beach is one of the most recent short sales to come on the market and one of the last. Additionally, this is the most expensive short sale currently on the market on 30A! One of the few remaining ultra luxury distressed properties on 30A!
This luxury home in Rosemary Beach sits on a corner lot on the south side of County Road 30A. The lot fronts a small park and is next to a boardwalk leading to the beach. This custom home is tricked out with the essentials to make this a premium property in Rosemary Beach. The main house has an elevator to all three floors and there is a  three-story carriage house which includes a two-car garage. The carriage house also has a sleeping loft, which doubles as a sixth bedroom. The garage contains a washer and dryer for guests. The property has stainless appliances, American walnut hardwood floors, gorgeous stone floors in the bathroom and granite counter tops throughout. Rosemary Beach has all the amenities you’re looking for such as swimming, shopping, tennis, kayaking, and biking just to name a few! Don’t miss the perfect opportunity to be a part of this exclusive community.

Investor Alert! Panama Palms Motel Foreclosure $1,450,000!

The Panama Palms Motel on 5607 Thomas Drive recently came on the market as a Bank Owned Property. This motel is a hidden gem for the savvy investor and can be a revenue generating machine with a projected Cap Rate of 23%.

Located on the eastern end of Panama City Beach and one row back from the beautiful white sand beaches of the Emerald Coast. The Panama Palms Motel sits on a large 1.5 acre site, which in my opinion is worth $1.45mil as raw land and its current zoning for a hotel. The motel has 44 units, an office with a manager’s apartment, a pool, a pool house, a remodeled duplex with gulf views, a single story cottage and more. There are four large parcels in all that make up this bank owned property.

The Panama Palms Motel is one row off the beach and offers gulf views from the second floor units and easy access to the gulf. Its location on Thomas Drive offers excellent drive by visibility from the street. With strategic renovations this Motel has the potential to bring in significant rental revenue. This property was originally purchased for $8.35 million and is a steal at the $1.45 mil offer price.

If you are interested in more information on the Panama Palms Motel or would like addition information, please call Craig Baranowski @ 850-259-1788 or email info@teambaranowski.com.
