Boo...
Absolutely. I love a good fish fry. We can go out catch some grouper and then fry it up.
Feel free.
No doubt Bradenton is hurting, because that area blew up quicker and higher than all the surrounding areas, even Siesta Key area is down. But I love this area as the canal dumps into the southern Tampa Bay and the top of the Gulf.
I will accept your application for first mate, but I am the skipper.
Sorry, but I have no need for another guy in my home.
This is the plan I am considering at this time except the second garage is going to be the size of the first (left) garage. The ceilings in the garage level, main floor and 10 feet. The walls on the top floor are 10 feet but the ceilings are full vaults. The screened porch is going to be an office. The plans do include the space for an elevator and after doing some research I found three dealers in the area and the price makes it worth adding.

Indeed. This location has not been hit by any major storm in over 100 years. Although it is in the "A" flood zone, the developer built the property up 12 feet msl, so flood insurance is only $350/yr. It helps that the lower level has only one room and the rest garages. So the living space truly starts at almost 24 feet above msl.
fair enough...i was first mate on my friends Lobster boat up in maine for year...i loved it. I also learned what an honest days work was! damn that was hard work, but it was damn fun so it was all gravy
grats on that property!!! if i weren't so hell bent on moving back up north i would ceratinly consider going a similar route to the one you just chose

Nope, not ever. I live in Florida.
Are you lookin to be someone's sugar daddy? I can shave my legs for you. Lemme know.
Sorry, no I have the twigs and berries, dont need another set around. Plus my G/F just got a promotion and is making about what I make and she loves to spend her cash.
Very nice! I am taking advantage, as well, but no water front property for me. I found some acreage in San Antonio I am going to buy, and build a house in the next 12 months, or so. There are some good deals out there right now.
Very nice Adam, cant wait to see it when its done.
Damn i am thinking i should move south

I have been out of Jersey for almost 5 years now and I dont miss it at all. I should have done this right out of grad school.
I am looking at a few places right now that can be had for a deep discount. While the whole world is crying about a mortgage crisis I am looking to turn a profit.
I really wish when people saw the news they would understand this is how the market works. Investors are clamoring to snatch up prime property for cheap. As they do the market will get back on the up-swing.
Looks like a sweet place! Enjoy!

Thanks. My brother is doing the same thing in Brentwood, TN. He just snatched up some more distressed properties.
Sounds like you got a very good deal. Congrats Adam!
He will turn a mad profit in Brentwood. That property is approaching Orange County status. Keep the pics coming, I hope to own a beach house in ten years. Looking at Tybee Island, Jekyll Island, or Wild Dunes.
You taking applications for chief of boat security? As captain you shouldn't be bothered with the tossing of the drunks into the ocean, and checking the IDs of the girls that will be flocking to our boat party:beer:
