BROKERS ARE WELCOME AS LONG AS BUYER PAYS THEIR COMMISSION. Otherwise, for sale by owner avoids brokers commission. LOW HOA at $22 a month.
Been here 21 years...no flood damage or water intrusion from any hurricane including Milton and only other damage during any weather event was minimal, usually a screen or two on pool cage needed replacing Some streets here were flooded during Hurricane Ian but my property was dry as it was during Ian, Helene, Milton and every hurricane.
Do you ever consider how much extra you pay for a home just by going thru a real estate broker? Not a concern here. Do you ever consider how much extra you may have to pay every month for homeowners association fees, some communities in this area charge $500/month and up....not the $22/month you will pay here.

HOW TO PREPARE TO VIEW THIS HOME. If you are making a NON-CASH OFFER, you should bring a lender's PREAPPROVAL letter or the less formal PREQUALIFICATION letter with you. Lenders prepare a prequalification letter based on info you provide to them, it is simpler and quicker to get.
I have the two required inspections dated 12/5/23: (1) UNIFORM MITIGATION VERIFICATION INSPECTION FORM (for Citizens wind only coverage) and (2) 4-POINT INSPECTION FORM. Home is in Flood Zone X so flood insurance is not required as it is considered a low risk zone and in 20 years, it has never been flooded. I will be using a board-certified real estate attorney to handle all paperwork. Since I am moving to Bahamas and most houses there are furnished, you can purchase any furniture here separately either before or when I present it for auction or sale or if you are the home buyer, that is certainly an advantage. investors: Rentals in this community run from $3500 to $4500 per month.
