Clearwater Beach Real Estate: What does a 3 bedroom 2 bath Oceanfront Clearwater Beach Condo Cost?
June 18th, 2008 Categories: Clearwater Beach Florida, Condos for Sale, Sand Key Florida, Tampa Bay FL Luxury Real Estate
Clearwater Beach Real Estate – 3 Bedroom Oceanfront Beach Condos for sale
Clearwater Beach Florida – The most common request Jack and I get is people looking for a vacation resort / investment property and their top 2 requests are first that it is oceanfront Clearwater Beach Condos along with wanting 3 bedrooms and 2 baths – sounds like simple requests right? Well it might surprise you that it’s actually a minority of the Clearwater Beach real estate inventory that’s available for sale.
I checked the Tampa MLS today and found that there were only twenty five 3 bedroom 2 bath Clearwater Beach condos for sale right now. Almost 1/2 of the condos for sale in the Mandalay Beach Club condominium complex. Only 2 of the Clearwater beachfront condos allow 7 day rentals (which is very unique). Nine of these Clearwater Beach condos are located on Sand Key and only one of these has a minimum rental period of 2 weeks – the others have minimum rental periods of 3 months and up – reflecting Sand Key’s strong residential focus.
Clearwater Beachfront Condo Photos – What’s not to like?
Photos of some of these fabulous Clearwater Condos:
Clearwater Beach Condos – Analysis of 3 Bedroom Condos for Sale Now
The cheapest beachfront condo is offered for $475,000 and is under 1400 square feet. This condo is located in the Sand Key Condominium complex, Sand Key Condo South. Unfortunately this complex was built with the building facing North / South instead of East / West.
So what does that mean to you?
It means that you have gulffront condo views from the balconies, however they are usually limited and somewhat obstructed (many don’t have good water views from inside the condos themselves)- Clearwater condo buyers consistently tell us they favor the West facing views that building with and East / West orientation have to offer.
So why are many condos, especially on Sand Key FL built facing North / South?
My guess is it was about cost! Obviously you can get more condos with this design since these buildings fit on a narrower piece of property and this prime Clearwater Beach real estate definitely commands top dollar.
Now don’t get me wrong – living on basically the #1 beach in the United States (we’re the southern extention of Caladesi) is definitely great at any direction 
– however, for those wanting the best gulf views – the East / West buildings are the most popular (and while we’re at it – the South West Views are the most popular and in the most demand).
The Mandalay Beach Club Condos and the Sandpearl Condos are the newest luxury condos on Clearwater Beach and offer truly amazing views and amenities however if you’ve got your heart set on a 3 bedroom you’re currently looking at Clearwater Beach condos for sale for over $1,000,000.
So what’s a Clearwater beachfront cost per square foot? As with all Clearwater real estate - location, views and amenities matter. Of these 3 bedroom condos for sale the asking price per square foot ranges from a low of $306 per square foot to a high of $950/square foot.
Clearwater Beach real estate stays pricey – even in this buyer’s market. In the last 3 months we’ve had six 3/2 oceanfront condos sell and the dollar per square foot has ranged from $273 per square foot to $650 per square foot.
Are you thinking of buying a Clearwater Beach Condo? Now is a great time to find a great place and a good value. Jack and I specialize in Clearwater Beach Real Estate and have put together a Clearwater Beach Condo Short Term Rental Report to help you in narrowing down which complexes meet your requirements.

Clearwater Beach Real Estate | If I Buy a Clearwater Beach Condo Can I Rent it Out Weekly?
June 10th, 2008 Categories: Clearwater Beach Florida, Condos for Sale, Island Estates Florida, Sand Key Florida
Clearwater Beach Condos – Great for Vacations…How about for Rentals?
Clearwater Beach Florida – Buyers looking for great Clearwater Beach Real Estate purchases often want to know what their options are to rent them out when they are not using it. What many people don’t realize is the City of Clearwater’s code’s default is a minimum of 30 day rentals which means if no other rules apply Clearwater Beach Condos or other property must be rented for at least 30 days or longer.
Now while 30 days is the default for minimum rental most condominium associations set their own rules (This is why you have to read that big stack of condo docs and know what you’re agreeing to). Everything from allowing 7 day rentals to mandating no rentals allowed the first 2 years of ownership. Yikes!
Today I had client looking to purchase a Clearwater Beach condo as their vacation home. They also wanted to be able to rent it out weekly when it’s not being used. Sounds simple enough, right? The Clearwater Beach area rental facts below may surprise you.
This is another good reason why you want to work with Clearwater Beach experts who know this kind of info about the various Clearwater Beach condos (also things like are pets allowed, how to calculate property taxes, etc. – topics for another day) because….
Which Sand Key, Island Estates & Clearwater Beach condos allow Short Term Rentals?
Get the Facts:
- ALL Island Estates condos must be rented for over 60 days and most require a 90 days minimum or longer;
- On Sand Key there are only 2 condominium complexes that allow you to rent for a minimum of 14 days;
- Sand Key has no condos that allow 7 day rentals;
- Only 4 Sand Key beachfront condos allow 30 day rentals – the rest require that you rent their Sand Key Condos for 90 days or more;
The good news is that their are actually 7 Clearwater beach condos that allow 7 day rentals – quirky how that number matched. 5 of these short term rental condos have amazing inter-coastal waterviews (and you can walk across the street to Clearwater Beach) and there are two gulf-front Clearwater beach condo complexes directly on Clearwater Beach with sugar white sand at your backdoor.
You might wonder why rental periods vary so greatly – many reasons but one of the reasons many have a 180 day minimum rental period is to avoid the extra 12% bed tax (like at hotels) that is charged on all rentals in Pinellas County for rentals of less than 6 months. It’s something to consider when making your plans.
If you are looking to purchase Clearwater Beach Real Estate any time soon – give us a call at (727) 710-8035 and let us know what your rental goals are and we are happy to share with you which Island Estates, Clearwater Beach and Sand Key Condos match your requirements.

Clearwater Beach Real Estate – The Future’s So Bright I Gotta Wear Shades
January 2nd, 2008 Categories: Clearwater Beach Florida, Clearwater Florida, Island Estates Florida, Luxury Real Estate, Real Estate Market Reports, Real Estate News, Sand Key Florida, Tampa Bay, Tampa Bay FL Luxury Real Estate, Tampa Beach Living, Tierra Verde Florida
Clearwater Beach Florida – Maybe you remember the 80′s hit from the group named Timbuk3 titled “The Futures So Bright (I Gotta Wear Shades)”. Here is the link if you want to see & hear the video.
That song reminds me of what our local Clearwater Florida real estate market for home and condo resales should look like in 2008 and beyond as local Tampa Florida real estate market conditions continue to improve.
National Association of Realtors reports that in this market, our Tampa Bay economy is adding jobs, mortgage rates remain in our favor, our second home market is healthy, our location near the beach continues to be attractive, and further production cuts in new home construction should lower supply all of which should lead to an increase in home prices and lower inventory in 2008. (Email us to request full report supplied by National Association of REALTORS )
So, if you are in the market to buy a first or second home in the Tampa
Bay area check out what some of our real estate customers are saying, then call us to find the right home for you.
Clearwater Florida Real Estate - Homes & Condos
Are you looking to buy Clearwater Luxury Real Estate where you can enjoy your luxury pool home, our beautiful green golf course communities, playing tennis all year long and dining and entertaining at local country clubs?

Clearwater Beach Condos | Sand Key Condos | Ocean front Real Estate Market Report -2007
December 29th, 2007 Categories: Clearwater Beach Florida, Condos for Sale, Luxury Real Estate, Real Estate Market Reports, Real Estate News, Sand Key Florida, Tampa Bay FL Luxury Real Estate, Tampa Beach Living, Waterfront Living
Clearwater Beach Florida – Today we are recapping information regarding condos that have sold on the beach in Clearwater Beach | Sand Key this past year compared to the previous year. We’re all standing by to see where 2008 takes our luxury beach real estate in Clearwater Florida, however, Jack and I are seeing lots of serious buyers prepared to purchase their luxury Clearwater Beach condo in early 2008.
We have included a 2 year historical look since our condominium real estate market on Clearwater Beach and Sand Key has seen lots of changes over the last two years with new buildings and complexes like Sandpearl, Belle Harbor, Mandalay Beach Club being completed and other projects like Indigo that didn’t make it off the ground.
Gulf Front Condos on Clearwater Beach | Sand Keys 2007 Year in Review
As I shared in the first report in our series, Pinellas Luxury Condo Report, it’s been a buyer’s market in the Tampa Bay area and especially on Clearwater Beach where there was a lot of “speculative” Clearwater Beach condo investing in new developments with the intent of just flipping these beach condos quickly by buyers “on paper” that never planned to own or live in them. Here is the second report in our new series called the Real Estate Market Report – 2007 Year In Review.
Why do niche Tampa Real Estate market reports? Readers tell us that it’s easy to find information on total Pinellas County market statistics however it can be misleading when those reports include everything from condos under $100,000 in 55+ Adult Retirement Condo Communities to the record setting condo sale of $4,400,000 at the Sandpearl Residences condos on Clearwater Beach this past month. 5 condos sold for over $3,000,000 this year in communities like The Grande, Mandalay Beach Club, Vinoy Place and Parkshore Plaza. Luxury condos and fine living still have their discriminating buyers even in this real estate market.
Just like all real estate is local – we believe each Tampa Bay real estate market niche is unique especially when you are looking at Tampa beach communities on the ocean and our goal is to provide you with a deeper view into our Gulf Front Clearwater Beach | Sand Key Condo Real Estate Market. We’ve been doing the detailed research and preparing reports on different Tampa Bay real estate market niches like:
- Report 1 – Luxury Condos (over $500,000) in Pinellas County
- Report 2 – Gulf front Condos in Pinellas County
- Report 3 – Pool Homes in Clearwater Florida (coming)
- Report 4– Clearwater Florida Homes Real Estate Report (coming)
- Report 5 – Luxury Homes (over $500,000) in Pinellas County (coming)
- Report 6 – The Clearwater Beach Sand Key Condo Report (coming)
- Report 7 – Island Estates Real Estate Report (coming)
- Report 8 – Clearwater Florida Condos Real Estate Report (coming)
…and how they’ve performed in 2007. We’ve also provided you with a historical view of the last 24 months. As we head into the New Year it’s a time for reflecting on the past and planning for the future. Hope you find this information helpful.
Ocean Front Clearwater Beach Sand Key condos | 2 year Historical Performance Graphs
If you have another particular Tampa Bay Real Estate Market Report that would interest you just let us know and we will work to add it to our list. Our goal will be to post one or two a day.
We will include the following 4 graphs in our Tampa Bay Real Estate Market Report and this one is focused on Clearwater Beach and Sand key condos on the beach front:
- Days on Market – How long is it taking Clearwater Beach condos and Sand Key condos on the beach to sell?
- Average Asked to Sold Ratio – Helps show how close to asking price Ocean front Clearwater beach and Sand Key condos are currently selling for.
- Median Price – shows that 1/2 of Clearwater Beach / Sand Key condos on the Gulf of Mexico sold are above and 1/2 are below this price in a given property or market niche.
- Units Sold – will show how many Clearwater Beach / Sand Key waterfront beach condos sold in a given month as well as over the 2 year period.
![2clearwater beachDays_on_market[2]](http://www.sandbarstosunsets.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/2clearwater-20beachdays-on-market2.jpg)
We’ve seen the time it takes to sell a Clearwater Beach Condo or Sand Key condo that is on the Gulf of Mexico rise significantly from a low of under 54 days in January 2006 to 138 now down from a high of 207 in mid 2007. We are starting to see buyers back in the market buying Clearwater beach condos priced properly.
There are many factors that have effected the time it’s taken to sell condos on the beach this year. One is the time it has taken some condo sellers on Clearwater Beach and Sand Key to price their beach condos correctly for today’s real estate market (many started asking more that it could ever appraise for).
Second, Clearwater Beach Condo Buyers had lots of choices and many sat on the sidelines wondering what prices would do and if we’d reached the bottom of our price-adjustment.
Jack and I are finding much of the Clearwater Beach real estate has asking prices that has finally moved into a realistic range for today’s market – Clearwater Beach condo sellers have finally come to grips with the fact that we’re not in the 2005–2006 Real Estate market anymore – if you want to sell any property the first key today is that you need to price it correctly.
![2clearwaterbeach Median_Price[1]](http://www.sandbarstosunsets.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/2clearwaterbeach-20median-price1.jpg)
The median price for Clearwater Beach Condos and Sand Key Condos on the beach is rising again and are currently at $704,500 which is up from the January prices of 2006 when it was $675,500. The big spike in January is caused when new high-end luxury condo developments like Sandpearl Residences Luxury Condos reached completion and several units were “sold” for over 1 million dollars and up.
![2clearwaterbeachAverage_sold_to_asked_ratio[2]](http://www.sandbarstosunsets.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/2clearwaterbeachaverage-sold-to-asked-ratio2.jpg)
We see that the Clearwater Beach condo Asked to Sold ratio has fallen as buyers have addressed the two points we discussed above. One, they’ve force the Clearwater Beach condo asking price to come down to a price that will fit today’s market place and actually appraise out and two, the fact that there’s so much competition along with some highly motivated sellers they’ve negotiated more more seller concessions than normal.
Clearwater Beach Real Estate still has a condo supply that far exceeds demand and most Clearwater Beach condo buyers have continued to ask us for info on the Clearwater beach condos that are deals, bargains, short sales or in pre-fore-closure since many novice Clearwater Beach investors found themselves coming up short in 2007.
![2clearwaterbeachUnits_sold[1]](http://www.sandbarstosunsets.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/2clearwaterbeachunits-sold1.jpg)
Ironically we had 71 beach front Clearwater Beach condos and Sand Key condos sold in both 2006 and 2007. So again is shows things are selling it’s just that our inventory (condos for sale at any one time) is so much larger than normal.
In 2007 we saw 2 ends of the Clearwater Beach Real Estate Market get the most activity – One was the top end of the luxury beach condos in communities like The Grande, Sandpearl Residences Resort Condos and Mandalay Beach Clubs which all had sales in 2007 over $3,000,000 with the Sandpearl Luxury Condos setting a new all time high for Pinellas County condo’s sold at $4,400,000.
Then we also saw people looking to buy that luxury vacation home or winter retreat at a deep discount. They found distressed sales prices on Clearwater beach condos – and there were and still are real bargains to be found.
Some Clearwater Beach condo prices dropped back to 2004 prices and many savvy investors realized the opportunity to buy a Sand Key gulf front condo now since many believe, like we do that Clearwater beachfront property will continue to be in high demand.

Clearwater Beach Florida – Clearwater 78 – Portland 19. No, this is not a basketball or football score – LOL – it is the forecasted high temperature for December 24, 2007.
As you can imagine, we are wearing shorts, tee-shirts, flip-flops, and drinking margaritas on our boats AGAIN today – HOHUM, and most of the folks who live up north are getting more ice and snow.
Not to mention the great real estate deals available here on Clearwater Beach.
Just today, I saw a great condominium for sale in Sand Key Florida in one of our premier waterfont communities on Sand Key. It has a boat dock and a 50′ deck overlooking the marina, pool, tennis courts and great sunsets.

Sand Key Bridge to Clearwater Beach Real Estate – Perfect for Sunday’s Sunset
December 23rd, 2007 Categories: Clearwater Beach Florida, Sand Key Florida, Sunday Sunsets, Tampa Beach Living, Things to do, Waterfront Living
Sand Key – Clearwater Beach Florida Sunset Series
Clearwater Beach Florida – Today we captured a Clearwater Beach sunset taken from the foot of the Memorial Causeway bridge looking out as the sun set behind the high-span Sand Key Bridge which connects Clearwater Beach and Sand Key Florida.
The island you see in the picture in front of the Sand Key Bridge is actually a protected bird sanctuary – we have several here to provide a safe haven for our natural wildlife – we are also part of the Great Florida Bird Trail.
While today was an overcast day, you can see the sun still puts up a fight to pierce through the clouds and shine through onto Clearwater Beach and our intercoastal waterways.
The good news was that even though it was cloudy on Clearwater Beach and Sand Key Florida – it was still warm enough for Jet skiers to go out and play along Clearwater Beach as you can see in the picture above. Can you believe it was 78 degrees here today – what’s the tempature where you are?
You can see our local birds (Ibises) enjoying the peaceful water and relaxing sunset too.
I think they also enjoy fishing for their dinner here since it’s an active time for fish in Clearwater Harbor along our intercoastal shores and the Memorial Causeway Bridge.
If you have an area Tampa Beach sunset or even a great Pinellas County sunset you want to share just email it to me at cyndee@sandbarstosunsets.com; we’d love to feature it here.
Even on days that are cloudy in Clearwater Florida we seem to always have an inspirational sunset.
I was struck by the beauty of today’s sunset with the piercing rays and the more muted colors of light yellow and dusty blues and grey and then watched as it turn a fiery orange as it set on Clearwater Beach and Sand Key – it’s easy to see why we say we have the bluest backyards – from top to bottom we’ve got it all.
For all our Clearwater Beach Christmas and Holiday visitors, like the one seen below, enjoy your time with us and make sure you take time to see one of our best attraction…our nightly sunsets and the best part is it’s free!
Clearwater Beach | Sand Key Bridge Sunset
Wishing you a great a Holiday week of joy and peace to celebrate with your family and friends.

Sand Key Florida Real Estate Agent prepares for UF Gators – Michigan Wolverine Showdown
December 22nd, 2007 Categories: Condominiums, Luxury Real Estate, Real Estate Market Reports, Sand Key Florida, Tampa Bay FL Luxury Real Estate, Tampa Beach Living, Waterfront Living
Sand Key Florida is Michigan Winter Wonderland
Sand Key Florida Real Estate – Today at the beach I was thinking of my good friend Missy Caulk, a top REALTOR in Ann Arbor who is a die-hard University of Michigan Wolverine fan.
Being a University of Florida Gator myself we’re anxious to see who ends up with College Football bragging rights for the next year as our teams are playing in this year’s Capitol One Bowl Game in Orlando Florida.
Recently Jack was researching various weather reports and was checking winter weather around the country and it got me to thinking if it was a competition based on our winter weather then we’d be the odds on favorite to win that bet. Now when it comes to college football – I’m not making any bets – think it should be a good game for all of us!
So when it comes to game day, they are forecasting the high temps on New Years Day to be 81 degrees in Sand Key Florida and 31 degrees in Ann Arbor Michigan. Now we’ll just have to wait and see what the final bowl game score will be.

Clearwater Beach Real Estate | Florida Foreign National Investors Understanding Short Term Rental Permits is Key
December 19th, 2007 Categories: Clearwater Beach Florida, Clearwater Florida, Luxury Real Estate, Real Estate News, Sand Key Florida, Tampa Beach Living
Foreign National Investing in Clearwater Florida
Clearwater Beach Florida – With the value of the dollar, the current Clearwater real estate buyer’s market and our great winter weather we are receiving calls daily from people in Canada, Britian and even from Russia asking us about investing now in Clearwater Florida Real Estate.
So if you’re someone who’s thinking of buying a Clearwater home or a Clearwater beach condo this winter we thought you’d enjoy this recent article from one of Florida’s Leading Mortgage Brokers, David A. Podgursky on planning for your Foreign real estate investment.
Looking to Buy Real Estate in Clearwater Florida | Clearwater Beach | Sand Key
“Foreign Nationals looking to purchase 2nd home and investment properties in Florida need to look no further than the availability for Short Term Rental Permits if they want to have the ability to rent out their condominium, single family 
house, or townhouse when they are not using it much like they would find in a Condo-Hotel/Condotel.
Many cities have created a licensure process for property owners and developers that will allow a property to be rented more than once within a year and with rental commitments/leases as short as a few days to a few months.
For instance, in Clearwater Florida, all short term rentals must be registered and licensed with the city. The purpose of licensure is to ensure a safe community and to enforce minimum housing and development standards. The property is also required to maintain an occupational license, thus paying additional taxes to the city.
The information about the Clearwater Florida code is available at www.MyClearwater.com or directly by following this link -o-> LINK.
For more information about Foreign National Investments in Florida follow this link -o-> Florida Foreign National Investors | Short Term Rental Permits are Key “ expert from the above mentioned article by David A. Podgursky, MBA .

Clearwater Beach Real Estate | Oh Christmas Tree!
December 17th, 2007 Categories: Clearwater Beach Florida, Clearwater Florida, Island Estates Florida, Luxury Real Estate, Real Estate News, Sand Key Florida, Tampa Bay, Tampa Bay FL Luxury Real Estate, Waterfront Living
Clearwater Beach Buyer’s Agent shares Traditions
Clearwater Beach Florida – Did you know that the Christmas Tree was a big deal in Germany in the 1800′s and came to the USA with the Germans who migrated here (thanks goes out to my Great-Great-Grandfather…a minister from Germany)…LOL. By the way, these German immigrants also brought carols, stockings, and more to our culture.
That reminds me of the things that Clearwater Beach Buyer’s Agents like Cyndee and me bring to our real estate culture. As you may know, Cyndee and I built our Clearwater real estate business on helping buyers get good deals in Clearwater, on Clearwater Beach, Island Estates, and Sand Key.
Our contribution to the Clearwater Beach real estate tradition started out with a belief that since the Home and Condo Buyer writes the check, the Buyer should have representation in each real estate transaction. As you may know, I do not have a law degree, but I do respect the laws of our land and the spirit of these laws, and in some cases, I am inspired by our laws.
Clearwater Beach Florida Buyers get Trust and Confidence
Last week I wrote an article on how Dual Agency is Illegal in Florida and the lively conversation that followed reminded me of one of my favorite statements that comes from Florida Real Estate Law. This was one of the key factors that led Cyndee and me to focus on helping Luxury Home and Condo Buyers purchase their dream home here in the Clearwater Beach Florida area.
It is this simple phrase (Florida Law Describes “Fiduciary”): “A broker in a relationship of trust and confidence between that broker as agent and the seller or buyer as principal….” Hmmmm, trust and confidence, I thought!
This simple phrase is by itself a definition, but when combined with the relationship most Clearwater Beach Listing Agents have with Buyers, Transaction Broker, it paints a more complete picture of why you need to call us:
“…A transaction broker provides a limited form of representation to a buyer, a seller, or both in a real estate transaction but does not represent either in a fiduciary capacity….” Hmmmmmm….,
..limited representation and not a fiduciary relationship, Hmmmm…
If you want trust and confidence to be at the core of your relationship with your Clearwater Florida Realtor, then give us a call because we are focused on what our Clearwater Beach Buyers want, and we work only for you, and not the Home or Condo Seller!
