Regency Towers is among my favorites. Having recently gone through a total overhaul under new management, this timeless classic is beautiful and the host to some really great real estate deals. This particular condo is on the west side with an enormous unobstructed new of the Gulf and is in great shape.

With an elevator, two car garage, huge bedrooms, a dedicated study, tons of private space and an awesome wide open 3 door sliding glass door that opens up to a nature reserve, this is THE place to be if you are a high-end liver.

Deal 2 – Move-in ready starter home for only$150k – only 4 blocks from the Gulf!

List Price: $149,500
Square Feet: 1,330
Price/SqFt: $112.41
2 Bedrooms, 2 Bath
Built in 1982
This home has never been rented and was used as a weekend summer home for the current owners. This is not a short-sale or a foreclosure, but is priced to sell, heck, if it made it on here, then it’s got to be a screaming deal. The appliances are older, but everything seems to be working fine. The a/c was replace two years ago and the roof was replaced 4 years ago. The backyard is all sand, but with a reasonable offer, the seller will provide a sod allowance.

Deal 3 – 2 Bedroom 1,200 sf Gulf Front Condo for $234k

List Price: $234,900
Square Feet: 1,197
Price/SqFt: 196.24
3 Bedrooms, 2 Bath
Built in 2005
Ok, just to clear up some confusion, the listing says this is a 3 bedroom, but the third bedroom is so small, I don’t want to call it that, just fyi. This condo is a foreclosure, but sure doesn’t seem like one. With travertine flooring, crown moulding and like new appliances, this thing is ready to go. In fact, I beleive this is the first foreclosure we’ve been into that you won’t have to do anything to start using. Situated on the Gulf, the views are amazing and the balcony is huge. This is a perfect opportunity to get into a Gulf-front condo for cheap. Majestic is an amazing resort with by far some of the best amenities on the beach: huge fitness room (over 50 Life Fitness cardio and weight-lifting machines), a huge theater room, dry sauna and steam room and 4 pools. Not to mention the location.

Show Notes

Deal 1 – Handyman Special

List Price: $79,900
Square Feet: 1,320
Price/SqFt: $60.53
3 Bedrooms, 1 Bath
Built in 1974
This is a Handyman’s Special and definately needs a little love, but for the price, it may be an awesome fit for you. This kitchen is damaged, but there is still some granite to work with. The carpet would probably need to be replacing and some work would need to be done on some of the walls. There is a pretty rough mother-in-law house out back that appears to have plumbing and electricity to it. This is a foreclosure listing being sold by the bank.

Deal 2 – Sunnyside Dedicated Beach

List Price: $219,900
Square Feet: 1,776
Price/SqFt: $123.82
3 Bedrooms, 2 Bath
Built in 1970
This is an awesome home in the beautiful Sunnyside Beach Area. This home is one block from a dedicated beach, which means no one will ever build on this beach. This is regarded as one of the nicest (and quietest) dedicated beach areas on Panama City Beach. This home needs a little work, but not much. It has a spacious floor plan with a neat, renovated master bathroom. This would make a great rental.

Deal 3 – Waterfront Wild Heron Condo

List Price: $289,000
Square Feet: 1,711
Price/SqFt: 168.91
3 Bedrooms, 3 Bath
Built in 2004
We are no strangers to Wild Heron, and that community is so HOT right now with over 12 closings in there so far this year. Of course, with prices like this, its no wonder, these condos are top notch, from the ground up. And the community is second to none in Panama City Beach, truly one-of-a-kind with superb amenities that emulate a lifestyle that at one point would cost you close to a million dollars to buy into. This condo is a one-owner, live in that has been spectacularly taken care of. This is a short sale listing, that is actually Karen’s listing, and I’ve been told the bank is being very communicative.

St. Joe releases new Golf memberships in Wild Heron

When St. Joe purchased the Sharkstooth club house, tennis and beach club the community was all a buzz about the change in memberships. At that time the only way to get a full golf membership was to either buy a home that had an existing membership through transfer and purchase or to buy an approved St. Joe property. That was not received very well by the community since many home owners assumed this was a privilege that would always be afforded to them.

Fast forward and now St. Joe is now offering several golf, tennis and beach club memberships to Wild Heron owners as well as those that would purchase property in the community. As a past club member and owner in Wild Heron I believe this is a great idea for the health of the community. As a Realtor I have had several people that have wanted to buy a particular piece of property and without a membership possibility that was less attractive. I will tell you that the golf course is great, the community is one of a kind and the neighbors are second to none.

Please click here for more information about the membership offerings and remember to call your favorite Realtor to check out Wild Heron and if you do not have a favorite Realtor I would love to help you. Karen Smith with Beachy Beach Real Estate at 850-527-5651.

Wild Heron Owners Offered Full Golf Membership at Shark's Tooth

Last August when St. Joe bought Shark’s Tooth Golf Course including a 10 acre practice facility, a 21,000 square foot clubhouse, a huge cart storage facility, a 4,000 square foot pro shop, four lighted HydroCourt Har-Tru tennis courts and the private 100? waterfront beach club property, golf memberships were no longer available to Wild Heron property owners.

This was a huge issue with existing owners because it no longer allowed they to purchase a private golf membership, including all future owners. So, if you purchased a homesite and built a home, you could not golf on the course that helps define your neighborhood. Stinks, right?
