I think you can reasonably expect to get $1100 to $1400 per week during the busy seasons, less for longer leases. The two week minimum may hurt a little in the summer as many guests then are only here for a single week but it'll be a slam dunk during snowbird season. Excellent purchase price on those units.

I am purchasing a 3rd floor, 1200 sf (with a large 150 sf balcony), north facing (good indirect ocean views), new nice finishes, 9 foot ceilings, and direct elevator access from covered parking. If there is a two week minimum, what would be a good rental price? Thanks.<br />Dave Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01148772426292299920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11537840.post-76725080196520290772017-12-30T14:24:28.483-05:002017-12-30T14:24:28.483-05:00Hundreds of new jobs is always good for real estat...Hundreds of new jobs is always good for real estate although the effect is spread over a much larger area than just the beach. Many of those employees buy in Merritt Island and Titusville. in addition to the beach. The more frequent launches has been good for the tourist business and that's expected to continue to increase. OneWeb and Airbus will soon begin building satellites here and Lockheed is transferring a few hundred ballistic missile jobs here from California and hiring quite a few more new positions. The Blue Origin rocket plant was scheduled to open week before Christmas. Northrop Grumman, Harris and United Space Alliance empty thousands more between them here.

Are there any other larger tech companies putting roots in the area?

A few agents have expressed their displeasure with what they thought was a reference to themselves. Some were correct in their assumptions. Hope to see you across the closing table in 2018.

Congrats on being consistent and being straight forward on market conditions. I imagine you also got a little flak from the hard core CB residents for combining Cape Canaveral in with the Cocoa Beach stats. Which I always thought made sense because of the unique nature of how the 2 cities blend together. Hopefully we can do another transaction together in the new year! Best of luck in 2018.Eric Lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13074561234468192380noreply@blogger.com
