    Bienvenue à Fort Myers Beach Floride les francophones!

    (Version FRANCAISE le prochain chapitre)

      A great part of the attraction and charm of the island lays of course along its seven while sand beach but also along the numerous gulf canals which fingered the width of the island towards the back bay or Estero island.It is known as one of the safest beaches in Florida. The island goes from a modest 10,000 residents in the off season to around 30,000 in season.They then enjoy the many pubs, water holes, restaurants, hotels, Inns which are a large part of the economy of the island This is not a surprise.

    Une grande partie de l'attrait et du charme de cette 'île est bien sûr sa plage au sable blanc d’environ dix kilometres , mais aussi a cause de ces canaux avec access sur la mer qui meandrent directement vers Estero Bay et le Gulf.Cette plage est reconnu comme l'une des plus sûrs plages en Floride.

    The smallest home in Fort Myers Beach? a few tips for investors

    Pure investors look at caps. They want to know what will they net at the end of the year after all expenses are paid off. That is the bottom line. Don't be fooled by how small that Fort Myers Beach condo or single home is. They might be power houses like the mighty mouse. Small but in a great location beats much larger in a less popular area.This Fort Myers Beach vacation home below is tiny. I saw the inside a year ago. I doubt its more then 450 square feet.But its a rental winner and a financial success. For these investors who think that that large home on the beach may be a better stronger investments:do your research.There is no denying that a home or condo smack on the Gulf Of Mexico of Fort Myers Beach makes sense in this buyer's market in the longer run, but if you are looking for a faster return: look for smaller.

     DSCN1803    This home is located some 100 feet or so from the beach. This one is no longer for sale, however we have dozens of very affordable Fort Myers Beach properties. Some are indeed on the smaller side but they make a lot of sense.Fort Myers Beach investors  may be hard pressed to take a look at these mighty mouse.

    DSCN1804  You will surprise to find out that this small cottage gets $400+ a week in season from December to mid April.

    In brief take a look at great small Real Estate investments in Fort Myers Beach. Their return is not so small. For a list of these mighty mouse properties contact your Realtor or myself on my cell or at realtorlloydn@aol.com.

    Fort Myers Beach information, history and homes

     

      Welcome to our tropical island. Fort Myers Beach is a barrier island located in Lee County.

    Technically the community of Fort Myers Beach includes  Estero, the larger 7 mile island and the smaller sister island called  San Carlos. It is a well known island located south of Sanibel island  and north of Bonita Springs   and some 26 miles to Downtown Naples.

        

      

    Fort Myers Beach island flavors

       

    It main features is obviously its beach which is also 7 mile long and is known to be the Florida safest beach, at least it is one of the safest. its numerous canals splitting dozens of streets in its width in to the back bay or Estero Bay,  its fishing which tradition goes back over 2000 years ago when the Calusa Indians: History of the Calusa Indians 

    controlled a large part of southwest Florida, its many bars, 

    Map picture

    Smokin' Oyster Brewery (S.O.B.) a local bar with good food

    restaurants, bistros and shops which all have that island touch, and its vibrant artistic community. It also has an outgoing center in downtown near the pier. Downtown FMB .

      Yes we are going through the Dog days of summer but I am glad we are part of this small community. I was also glad to see that my home appreciated 2.5% in the last 30 days. The deals are still here but these interested  Fort Myers Beach Real Estate better move sooner then later. Either way, come and visit us and welcome to our tropical island.

    Sanibel island homes under $500,000, Captiva from $280K and up

    The deals are still available in Sanibel, however there used to be more homes available even under $300,000 only a few months ago. The good news? Its till very affordable for such a glorious island where 2/3 of the land is protected. Sanibel homes under $500,000

          Sanibel Jamaica Sanibel home with pool under $500,000

    I have looked at the listings and the market lately and it is clear that if you are serious about purchasing a  Sanibel home or  in Captiva, again I will say it clearly: its the time! Remember that these homes are bough for over 60 cents or less  on the dollar compare to 2005-2006, granted they were inflated in these days, but the deals are here to be taken.Signs show that the asking prices are slowly stabilizing. 

    Captiva , still has a few very exciting deals starting at $280,000 up to under $700,000. Captiva homes from $325K and up 

    The one at an asking price of $325, 000, at 190 White Pelican dr,Captiva   even though a cottage of 876 square feet got my attention. It offers much more then I first thought. Great possibilities to expand or just enjoy it as an island retreat or your own home!

        Sanibel Pelican      Sanibel white pelican

     

    Its located a short walk to the beach in North Captiva which you can reach only by boat.They do have “boat taxis” available form Sanibel.

         Sanibel white Pelican dr      Sanibel White Pelican dr2

    The total square footage is over 2,000 with a large deck and well designed pilings Sanibel home. I am sure one could make it bigger pretty easily if need be. Either way its a great deal. For more information give me abuzz on my cell listed below or e-mail me at realtorlloydn@aol.com. This home has also a fireplace and a bar. A great buy close to the Gulf of Mexico.
