Surfing in Seaside Florida

February 27, 2010 9 Comments

That’s What I’m Talking About!

The reason you own Seaside Florida Real Estate is so you can hangout at the beach and do fun things like enter YOLO Board Surfing contests like this one that was held at the beach in Seaside last fall.

Yolo 3 Small

YOLO Boarding is where you stand on a surfboard like board holding a paddle that acts as a rudder and paddle. It’s a great workout and tons of fun. In this contest people from all over 30A , Destin and Panama City came to compete and have fun. Many of them own real estate in the area. If you are interested in owning property in the area check out Seaside Florida Homes For Sale or 30A Real Estate News or if you are interested in Panama City Condo Foreclosures be sure to look at the Panama City Beach Real Estate News.

Buy 30A Real Estate in you IRA

Because investing and 30A Real Estate go hand and hand I think it’s very important to be informed as possible on how to maximize your investing power. With that in mind I came across this question and answer segment on Smart Money.com that address IRA’s and real estate. Take a look and let me know what you think.

Q. Can an IRA be invested in mortgages or real estate?
—Linda Bruyette, Ellington, Conn

Yes, some real estate (including commercial property, vacation rentals, raw land and mortgage notes) is permitted. At best, real estate provides steady income and long-term appreciation. Usually only special-purpose banks and trust companies offer these investments, as “self-directed IRAs.”

Potential risks are high. “Self dealing” is strictly prohibited—which means you can’t invest in something you or immediate family members use or benefit from. Otherwise your entire IRA balance is treated as a withdrawal and subject to relevant taxes plus a 10 percent penalty if you’re under age 59 1/2. Plus, there’s the liquidity issue: You need a big IRA to handle buying and maintaining property while also keeping a diversified portfolio. And if you need out quickly, you better hope for a robust real estate market. A good real estate mutual fund or exchange-traded fund is a simpler choice.

Are the effects of the new Panama City airport are already being felt?

Check out the deal Delta Airlines is running right now on airfare from Northwest Florida Regional Airport to Atlanta. Granted it’s a short term promotion and has to be taken advantage of this weekend but it does bring exposure and accessibility to the area in Atlanta – a major feeder market for 30A Real Estate. When the new airport opens I think you will see more deals like this in cities that Southwest flys such as Houston, Washington DC and Orlando.

How does this effect 30A Homes, Condos and Land For Sale?

More exposure to more areas will open more peoples eyes to how wonderful Florida’s Emerald Coast is and the incredible deals on 30A Real Estate right now.

Watercolor Short Sale – Click on picture for details

Will Short Sales and Foreclosures in Watercolor last forever? No.

People often tell me that they want to buy a house in Watercolor and that they want a great deal. They then tell me they would like to look at Watercolor Foreclosures and Short Sales which is a very reasonable place to start their search for a great deal. The problem is that Watercolor Foreclosures don’t come along very often and when they do they go fast. Even short sales tend to move quickly so if you are interested in either a Watercolor Foreclosure or Short Sale I would encourage you to sign up for the Watercolor Foreclosure and Short Sales Alert.
