Time to visit Fountain Beach Resort in Daytona Beach. Looks like Fountain Beach Resort is more in line with a normal market tan many other condo-hotels and condos in the area. For a 148-room resort 11 units available for sale per our local MLS is a healthy number. Since August 15 to today there were 3 units sold. This is a darn good number, and actually, it is higher than average number of units sold in one month in the Fountain Beach Resort Many other condo-hotels and condos have much lower inventory percentage-wise. Why at the same time properties, which are half a mile apart have so different number of available units for sale is beyond me. I know that real estate is local, but it is difficult to understand how it can be different in the same location and, basically, every other thin... 09/17/2012

Otherwise reasonable people often get unreasonable ideas about Florida real estate market. I am not sure whether they could buy a parking space for $50K in New York, but they call and ask for a 2-bdr/2-bath condo on the ocean and expect it to be for under 50K. Isn’t $50K too good to be true in the first place? Shouldn’t there be a reason why a condo on the beach is only $50K? That it might be small, noisy, high maintenance, etc? Yesterday we showed a direct oceanfront studio in the Fountain Beach Resort to a visitor from New York. Besides the asking price, which is $69K, he wanted to know what the taxes were, so we pulled the information from the County Appraiser website and showed him that first time in several years the proposed tax for 2012 was over $5K higher than for 2011. Before, ... 09/02/2012

Fountain Beach Resort, a condo-hotel since 1999, was built in 1973. It was a hotel later converted to condo-hotel. 148-room condo-hotel is located in the heart of Daytona Beachside within walking distance to Main Street, Ocean Walk Village, local bars, clubs and restaurants. For more detailed information about the resort simply follow the link.  Check below available units in Fountain Beach Resort. I wouldn't pay any attention to this lowest priced unit for $35K. Condo Owners Association has foreclosed on the owner, but there is a mortgage and it is way more than the asking price, and I do not believe they can short sell this unit without the consent of the guy on the Mortgage, and it is unlikely he would give them this consent.  So, it is a good price, but unrealistic deal. And yes, th... 07/13/2012

What if I Buy A Condo-Hotel? This is frequently asked question. While buyers have the general understanding of things when they are buying a condo, the hotel part confuses people a lot. These questions are real questins asked by real people. The questions below came today in two e-mails about oceanfront Fountain Beach Resort in Daytona Beach, a 149-room hotel converted to condo-hotel in 1998-1999.   - I see there is a maintenance fee of $350, but is that monthly? Yes, this is monthly. And $350 a month for a condo-hotel unit is about average. Maintenance fee varies from $255 to $450 a month. The difference between residential (apartment) condominium and condo-hotel is that in Daytona condo-hotels maintenance covers not only water, but all utilities, including local telephone calls, Inter... 05/29/2012

Fountain Beach Resort. What are the prices? I received an e-mail about Fountain Beach Resort . There was a question about prices. The prices in Fountain Beach Resort, a condo-hotel in the heart of Daytona Beach, start from $36K and the highest price is $79K. This usually brings a series of question like these: - Is the unit priced at $79K much bigger than the one for $36K? No, they are the same 343 sf plus an ocean view balcony. - Does the unit for $79K have a better view? No, not necessarily. - Is the unit priced at $79K closer to the ocean, on a higher floor? Not really. - So why one unit is $36K and another, similar, is $79K and the rest of them are in between? Oh, this is simple. The truth of the matter is that the price for condo-hotels depend not that much on floor, location, and ... 04/01/2012
