Bobby J's Top Picks

Sounds like funn! Thanks for supporting SoWal Bobby!

Thank you Kurt. I think it will be fun as well and I think it will need to be biweekly instead of weekly to get a real feel if I calculated properly. Regardless, they are MY picks and something to blog about on a regular basis. I hope if someone has a property they think belongs on the list they can submit it on the blog and I will consider it for a top pick.

#4 says it's $65K on the list and $75K on the link.

Do you have a survey for that lot?

They raised the price and my head still tells me they are asking $65,000. I am shocked that one is still out there. I have a feeling that may be the first one to go. No survey noted at this time but I have walked both sides of lot which are 150' deep. Incredible! Oaks, etc. The community common area is right before you get to the lot on the left. 75x150! Best vacant lot deal outside of a "community" along 30a!

Please take a moment and check out my top picks for real estate along 30A. I will update my picks biweekly to see how I did or add more properties to the list. Hope you enjoy the blog and keep your eyes open on sowal.com for a new link!

This is a good idea Bobby J. Our realtor sends us weekly lists of foreclosures and for the last several months many of them have come through with some sort of activity on them - i.e. pending, sold
Before it was pretty stale with just a lot of listings and not much going on. I could see from those lists that buyers had started making their moves.

Good luck!

Thanks Rita ! I love to use those automated list for clients as well. Actually seeing the market day to day helps buyers get a real vibe for what is really going on. I hope lmy top picks will be fun and another way to look at the market.

My brother bought a lot that sold for 600k in 2005 for 55k from a bank recently . sick collapses in prices. banks are basically insolvent if they take all there loses.

I have seen a few of those $600,000 lots for under $60,000. Lakeside at blue mnt was full of them. Trustmark had the majority. They had recently just sold their last one and quite relieved to be done with them.

Thanks for all the calls and feedback on my top picks. My next run is scheduled for update and check in is 7-11-2011. I think I have two so far that have gone under contract. Not so bad and I see where I will be able to tighten my picks up a bit. Thanks again and check out my picks if you have not.

Can you guess why we called it that?

one lot at lakeside at blue mountain went for $38k a while ago. but even over a year ago many lots in there sold for 40-50k. but the place is a ghost town and it could be a decade before its even 1/3 to 1/2 full.

If it is 1/3 t0 1/2 full in 10 years then that would be excellent, and more of a normal, healthy growth pattern we used to have here. It is a good location.

25 sales since 01/01/2010. Not bad. Love the location and the elevation changes in there. That place for buyers has been a homerun and would be considered a top pick if the price is in the ranges of these 25!

Does that subdivision have a trail access around the lake from the east side, south to Scenic 30A?

No, that subdivision backs up to the Pt Washington St Forest. There is a fire break that runs east of the property which comes out at 30A.

New top picks up with video! Thanks for looking. The video off you tube has not caught up to my voice yet!!! Looks like an old Bruce Lee video but I think you can get the message. Thanks again and check out the deal in Seaside!

Here is the link for my updated picks. It links over from the ads but not from the above post.

love the website and blog.
we need a surf report over there in the weather blog...

Yes my brother and sister both got 550k lots from 2005 for under 60k. they can hold 10 yrs and make 4 baggers, but once all this cheap invetory is gone real estate will be much tougher. i'm already seen some flipping going on. go look at redfigh village. 4-5 sold in the 150's to 180's theres been a few $300k sales lately. thats insane. who would pat 100% premium on condo's over 5-6 months
