FL Keys Oceanfront Home...How much?? 

Thanks so much for watching!

Thanks so much for watching! More to come soon.

Thanks 👍

Thanks for watching and the kind words!

Glad you enjoyed it

Thanks for watching and take care of yourself and get to feeling better!

I think so too!

Thank you! Cheers!

That is the tradeoff down here sometimes. If it were an elevated home in that location it would most likely be twice that price....things we do to live in Paradise! Thanks for watching!!

Let's make it happen! Give us a call ....

​ Lottery first. Lol

Vaca cut can be crazy sometimes for sure. I've personally rescued people out of a capsized boat there myself.

Yes real estate prices here are shocking these days. I can remember back 5 years ago when I could have purchased a three bedroom waterfront home in Marathon for $750k...but now...no way. Hindsight is 20/20 ....

I remember decent sized homes in Key West for $300k. 😮

But this one doesn’t offer snow 😂

Location, location, location...

@@GablesOnTheGo , and no snow!

Yeah but you’d be in Ohio.😂

I can’t believe anybody would even pay that much for it at all in Ohio! There’s no ocean front water available to you, you don’t have a year-round beautiful weather. I wouldn’t give 20,000 for it in Ohio! L O L.

Hmmm...that's an excellent idea for a video! Let us work on that. I can tell you that taxes are roughly 1% of the purchase price, insurance varies greatly property to property, but it is not unusual for insurance to be over 10K per year. Exterior maintenance also varies greatly by property but I would say it is higher down here just because of our exposure to sun, salt, water and wind.

There are a variety of buyers in the Keys, some want to live here full time, some want a vacation home, and some want to invest their money in real estate. We don't really see investment companies coming in a scooping up a bunch of properties though.

Give us a call and let's discuss...we are looking for offers!! Mark Gable LLC, 770-561-6091 Coco Plum Real Estate

So true. But some people do love ground level homes down here. It's a risk you take if you love the place you live. I personally prefer a ground level home, there are so many benefits to ground level, but you just have to weigh out the risk vs. reward ....some choose to take that risk, some do not. Flooding has and always will be a factor down here.

Thanks!

Hard to say accurately, but I would assume several times. Like any ground level home here in the Keys, there is always that risk. Concrete homes here have been holding up for decades, this one is a good example. Good maintenance and remodeling are just necessities to live in Paradise!

why are people that can't afford this commenting here

You can find lots of privacy out on your boat in the big, blue ocean 😎 Plus there are areas in the lower Keys that offer more privacy for those that prefer it.

@@GablesOnTheGo When you spend a fortune on a nice home on the water, it can be disappointing when there is a parade of boats going by with their loud music playing, especially on the longer holiday weekends. Lets go see how the rich people live seems to be a preferred method of entertainment in the keys. It was even worse prior to the restrictions placed on taking lobsters in the private canals. Drive bys gawking at you in their rented cars or bicycles are another issue. I know all about the boat, i had a very nice one which was one of the main reasons i moved there to begin with. I lived on Yacht Club island on Duck Key full time for more than 10 years. So i know what im talking about. There are much nicer water front homes in much nicer places in Florida where this isnt an issue as it is down there.

Like anywhere else, there are negatives to living in the Keys for sure. Wow....you just gave us a great topic for a video...thanks! We will work on answering that question for you in an upcoming video!

@@GablesOnTheGoGablesOnTheGo When I mentioned to a friend that I might consider the islands (Captiva, Matlacha) or even the Keys over Cape Coral, he warned me that a Cat 1 storm requires mandatory evacuation. I'm currently in Lee County and sheltered in place for the last 3 Hurricanes. Relocating to a shelter would be exceedingly difficult for me. The Tropical Beauty of the Keys is quite appealing.

yeah i did a doubletake on that one too lol

Not personally, but our brokerage is open to speaking with new agents. Coco Plum Real Estate, Marathon FL

Thank You @@GablesOnTheGo

i hope so, i just have to get there before that guy waiting for lottery

I have a bit of a tough time with that set up myself. But...they are packed with people and as much as I don't personally understand the justification, it obviously works for many. That might make a good video if we could interview some of the residents and hear their reasoning for their purchase. Hell, we might all learn something new and I'll be selling those things like hotcakes! Thanks for watching!

If you run a 150degree heading out of Marathon, in 65 miles you'll hit Elbow Cay/Cay Sal Bank in the Bahamas....it's another 40 miles to Cuba...

why are you looking here, go there and quit complaining
