Those who spent time in Daytona Beach area, probably ventured south on A1A (Atlantic Ave) to its southernmost point ending in Lighthouse Park, and then drove on Peninsula Avenue past our stunning Lighthouse, marinas, waterfront restaurants and then magnificent mansions, dotting the shores of Halifax River, noticed and liked this part of greater Daytona Beach. It is so close to all the buzz, yet quiet and laid back as if i is world away… It is a quaint town of Ponce Inlet with hardly 3,000 residents. No businesses except for waterfront restaurants and marinas, no hotels and motels, very few transients… And unquestionably the best beaches in Daytona area… The latest massive (over 600 units) 172-acre condo development spanning from the ocean to the Intracoastal was completed in 2004. 7-st...

The market is moving. I can say it again and again. I was checking for a client the units there just a few days ago, and 2 condos are already gone. At the same time the prices are pretty good, but do not expect lower prices in the Link. These were the same prices as in January 2010. Who listens, listen. The Links are two cloverleaf-style 7-story buildings with a circular garage in the middle and 4 wings. Though it is a part of a larger development – Harbour Village, the Links have their own gate. The buildings are surrounded by a 3 par 9 hole executive golf course. If you play, great. If you do not play -  enjoy the scenery, as there are not many condo development with any land, and, subsequently with much green. The buildings are across the street from the Ocean, and some unit have vie...

The email read: "Could you explain how much would it cost me in taxes if I buy a condo in the Links? I heard that Florida has very high taxes." You often hear that we have high property taxes in Florida. There is no simple answer here. First, your taxes and Seller’s taxes may be not the same. Taxes are being assessed every year, and they will be based on the purchase price and many other parameters, so I won’t be able to predict the exact amount of taxes. But we sure can guess, and will be pretty close in our guess. Because the taxes are calculated not from the market value, but rather assessed value, and assessed value is the function of the budget, and not the reflection of the market values for these properties.  The Links is part of Harbour Village, a gated residential community in ...

First time we came to Ponce Inlet - a quaint small town surrounded by water of 3 sides - when we first time came to Florida in 1995. The market was terrible, the signs for sale were on every third home and we got the impression that people were simply trying to run away. We could not figure how, but figured that if people were leaving, we better keep away. How darn wrong we were! Even in hte market as dramatically low as now those prices are long gone. It took us nearly a decade to return to Ponce Inlet, this time to a condo in The Links. I can't say I live here, as this where I come in the evening, and the only time where I live here is Sunday, when we go the ocean and enjoy those long walk on the Beach. There is now a way to watch the videos from Youtube in high definition, if you upl...
