bid warThe Marco Island real estate market is always brisk in the winter. It's the time of year where every day seems to be sunny and 80 degrees. This year, though, it's crazy. It's crazy in a lot of places. The Covid nightmare is nearly over, and buyers are coming out and making up for lost time. With inventory at extremely low levels, bidding wars are happening all over the place. It's become unusual actually to sign a contract without one. At Land & Sea, we are applying every strategy to avoid bidding wars, but sometimes they're inevitable. 

How do you avoid a bidding war? In a word - speed. We're successfully getting contracts without a competing bidder stepping in by moving fast. Now, I'm not suggesting adopting a reckless mentality and throwing caution

Why Weekly Rentals Matter to Buyers

South Seas Tower on Seaview CtUnfortunately, not everyone has the time or the budget to spend a month, much less three or four, vacationing on Marco Island. For our snowbirds, a months-long stay on Marco Island is typical. For the non-retired or budget conscious this simply isn't possible. As a real estate investor on Marco Island, you have to evaluate the opportunities and set your goals accordingly. An important factor in choosing the best property is going to be the minimum rental periods imposed by the various condominiums.

Most Marco Island condos require a minimum rental period of 30 days. Many owners love this. Why? Because resident turnover is minimized. It's quieter. While this is a must-have for most, it can be a negative if your

South Seas Tower 2We have an incredible new listing in South Seas Tower 2! If you've been waiting for the perfect condo to pop up in South Seas Towers, it just did. This unit is completely updated throughout. It's got new tile and new granite in the kitchen and baths. The wall that everyone wants to be removed from the kitchen in most South Seas units has been removed, creating a modern open concept that absolutely transforms this condo into an open, airy beach house.

One thing that we love about this particular South Seas condo is the floorplan. Both bedrooms and the family room have direct access to a huge lanai. Of course, this means the views from every room are spectacular. Marco Beach is one of the most picturesque beaches in the world. The crescent-shaped beach

A big WooHoo goes out to our special clients who just purchased their dream condo in Caxambas Tower on Marco Island. This 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath unit offers 1869 square feet under air and a total of 2359 including one of the most spacious and useable lanais on the island.

Caxambas Tower was built in 1979 but you wouldn't know it by looking at it. Like most condos on Marco Island, expert property management has maintained the building to perfection. Everything is absolutely top-notch. From the pool to the parking lot, this is prime real estate on Marco Island. In fact, when we suggested Caxambas Tower to our client, he told us he wasn't familiar with it. When he saw it, it was love at first sight.

Just Sold South Seas Tower We just sold a fantastic unit in Tower 3 of South Seas. If you're not familiar with South Seas, it is one of the only gated communities on Marco Island. Behind the gates are evrything you could ever want in a beach condo. Obviously, there's the beach, but it's where on the beach it is that makes it special. You're located at the north end, facing southwest. You not only get a view of the full lenth of Marco Beach, but you can relax on your lanai and soak in the sunset every evening. There's a lot to love about South Seas.

Besides the beach, there's boating, too.  That's, right.  South Seas is the only development to offer the beach and boat docks on one property. You can lease a dock year-round or just for your visit. When you're not on the beach or…

Buyer Beware!

If you're shopping for property on Marco Island, you want the best real estate information you can get, right? When you choose a website, you must be confident that you're seeing accurate listing data. It would be a catastrophe to buy a property, only to find out a better one was available but not shown.

This nightmare happens and I'll explain how. Like over 90% of buyers on Marco Island, you have started your search on the internet. You've probably combed through Zillow and Trulia. These sites have thier uses, but for serious shoppers they are nearly useless.  You realize this when you contact an agent for more information on a listing or two only to find out the home has been sold, or isn't available yet in the case of many
