Florida Waterfront Property
Florida waterfront real estate sits on the top of the property ladder and is without a doubt the most valued real estate in Florida. Not only in recent years, but for decades, Florida waterfront property has been at a premium as investors and wealthy homeowners clamour to purchase one of the ever-decreasing jewels of the real estate markets crown. Waterfront homes in Florida are desired for many reasons, by all types of owners; some demand luxury homes with docks, others are quite happy to share a dock within a waterfront community. Private islands, accessible only by boat offer privacy and solitude, gulf and oceanfront homes present the opportunity of high occupancies in rentable areas. Canal and riverfront properties allow owners easy boating and fishing, other owners simply enjoy looking out over the water....
 From the turn of the century many investors bought waterfront lots so that they could build their retirement homes in the coming years. However with the down turn in the market in 2005 and the subsequent decrease in values, those investors that leveraged too highly have been selling their prized pieces of real estate for far less than they bought them for. Rumour has it that one lucky English buyer managed to buy a 12 million dollar waterfront home for 6 million.
New waterfront homes, luxury waterfront condos and beachfront mansions are being bought all along the gulf of Mexico and on the Atlantic Ocean from the Florida Keys upto Jacksonville as well as lakefront mansions in Orlando and central Florida. Properties on the waterfront are at the top of most peoples wish list and the supply of sensibly priced waterfront homes is struggling to keep up with demand.

More golf courses can be built, more penthouses constructed, but we cannot create any more coastal and river frontage. Over the last decade or so Florida waterfront property has been of primary focus as investors clamoured to purchase one of the ever-decreasing jewels in the Florida real estate markets crown. Many investors who bought waterfront lots in recent years so that they could build their retirement homes in the coming years
 Today given the decrease in prices, investors are continuing to buy waterfront properties, but now at discounted prices compared to just a few years ago. Homes that were on the market back in 2004-5 can be picked up for just over half that price in some areas. Investors that bought waterfront properties in Florida at the peak, are now paying the price AND some high monthly payments, mostly due to over extended leverage from the banks. This in turn is bringing in new investors who know that they will be able to buy a piece of Florida waterfront at low prices as owners attempt to sell without foreclosing or going into bankruptcy. It is harsh on the owners but a great opportunity for buyers to buy a waterfront property in Florida that was out of their reach a few years ago
