Unit 3 was listed for 659K and sold for 619K. Although nice, it is the least desirable unit in the HOA with a small deck and little privacy. It is the unit that has changed hands the most since we've...

You are not factoring in the value of the boat slip which is worth about 200K if you were to purchase one separately. There is also the value of a jet ski lift (technically another boat). What is...

The assessed value of our particular property does not include the value of the private boat slip or jet ski location. That makes a huge difference! The benefit is that your taxes do not reflect that...

Thank you for your reply. Yes you are probably correct. We're pretty much at the bottom and have resigned to the fact we may have to be here for another year or more. No big deal.
