Pompano Beach
 

I am thinking about buying a condo in pompano beach in the next two years and I was just wanting to get some feedback. Is it a good area ect. I want to be close to miami and my price range looks like pompano is good for me. It will mainly be for vacation renal but i still want a place to go wen it gets cold in cincinnati, and a place to keep a second boat. Any ideas or feedback would be great. Thanks

There are a few good, and many not so good(or at least places I wouldnt wanna call home) areas in Pompano, I am assuming your talkin waterfront??

Research well, I didnt when I moved here, and bought my townhome , it all looked good during the day, in the middle of the week, but when the kids got outta school, and the parents got home, the neighborhood got WAYYYY Loud.

I kept that place 6 months, then moved North to Palm Beach County, and West out in the Glades, I can go out in the backyard on a saturday night, and hear the critters croaking, its so quiet.

after just returning from our first trip to the gulf side, I would strongly suggest checking out the area from Marco north to Captivia, beautiful beaches with public access and lots of interesting places to go boating. Not sure if it is more pricy but if things are equal I would definately take a look

I agree, a great area.

Let me know when you need to see something. As you can tell from my signature, I deal directly in that area. I live within 2 miles of the nicest areas of Pompano and I am 2 blks from the ICW.

I live in Pompano, and I love it. It is close to everything. And the club office is in Pompano too.

Well, one major plus is that you get to be close to all our fun.

funny that´s how i found that same area to be 1993/94 when I was about moving over to US.
But I still live here in the cold and peace :-)

Where were you when I shopped around :-( ?

buy now there are some great deals to be had... things might go back up in a few years

get todays wall street journal to see why

Just about like any sizeable American city, Pompano Beach has its desireable and undesireable areas. East of US 1, (Federal Hwy.) and North of Atlantic Blvd. is a pretty safe bet.
Cash Bar would be my main contact if I was in the market.

I satyed for a week right on the intercoastal with a friend on terra-mar drive BEAUTIFUL!!!

Pompano beach is actually a good place to buy something now. During our building flurry the past 10 years or so it seemed it started in Miami went north, Aventura was hot, Hallandale was real hot, hollywood, it kinda skipped Dania and went into Lauderdale, skipped Pompano and continued into Palm beach county. Meaning that the prices have not been to inflated in Pompano like they can be in Lauderdale, or Aventura. I think it is still a good buy, and in 10 years the whole coast will back to valuation and you will have bought near the lows.
At my last Builders Association meeting here in South Florida, I believe there were 42 Condo Buildings slated for the City of Ft. Lauderdale and 14 for Pompano beach that are still in Planning and Zoning, I think that is going to be a great boost for Pompano.
Just work with Cash Bar, he will know much more about the area than us builders!

Thanks Ed !!
