Generally speaking, Real Estate in Greater Fort Myers...

* Condos and Homes equipped with the basics (not upgraded and in more local residential areas of Cape Coral and Fort Myers) can be purchased for $40,000-$75,000.   

*  Nice, updated and many times turnkey furnished condos and single family homes in more desirable areas, i.e. closer to the beaches; in communities with nice amenities and more likely to be populated by second home owners sell for between $100,000 - $300,000 depending on square footage, location and amenities.

*  Elite Country Club Properties that sold for over $1 million 3 or 4 years ago can many times be purchased for less than half the peak price.  Have you heard of Miromar Lakes, master planned luxury development convenient to the SW Florida Airport, West Bay Country Club, an exclusive country club in popular Estero, or The Colony in Pelican Landing in Bonita Springs? 

*  One of my favorite areas ...the south end of Fort Myers Beach (near Lovers Key) offers wonderful options in the $200,000-$300,000 range.  If you have dreamed of owning Gulf Front property and are looking for a unit that will bring good rental income..I have the complex for you (and if you are a tennis player, you will appreciate it even more.)

So, as you can see........the dream of winters away from snow and slush to the sandy beaches, gorgeous golf courses and consistently beautiful weather of Southwest Florida are now within reach for many who never thought it could happen and now is the time.
