Check the Port Charlotte/Punta Gorda area. Still reasonable waterfront places there. I guarantee you won't lose money on it.

Default Well

Not sure what I want to spend.. Need to sell my house ..and would finance the difference ..Id hope to live slightly inland with a big garage and borrow little or nothing ..Or find something on the water with a note ..
I dont care about the house ..in fact a fixer upper is more my style.. Its the boat access I realy care about ..Im not too fond of marinas ie: rack storage etc ..
Also I dont know much about the cruising areas down there .. We like to pull up on the beach and make marguaritas etc ..

Contact Ragtop 409 on this board. He's been looking quite a while and may have some leads for you.

By great deal i just meant alot cheaper then on the water. I think ive seen 150 advertised somewhere, but i never seriously looked.
Having your boat at your house is a great benefit.

Cuda is correct Port Charlotte/Punta Gorda, is great..
You will not only not lose any $'s there, you'll make A LOT!!! Also, Cape Coral/Ft. Myers is great. 4 years ago 92K on a canal 500 yards from the intercoastal, now 350K to "TEAR DOWN" for the property... No kidding. It's currently 75 degrees and still light and 8:14 pm...

Good luck, Ben

Heck, even inland property has gone crazy. If my house sells for what I think it will, I'll have a 100% ROI in seven years.

Oh yea... And New "Hamster" has what 18 miles of shoreline...? Cape Coral alone has 400 miles of canals homes alone.

PS: OHHH... And I use to live in Sandown (outside of Manchester) so I'm quite familiar with the NH factor.

Ft Myers/Cape Coral is growing, but you can still find a pretty nice house on the water w/ River/Gulf Access for around 300-350k. depending on loc. The closer to the Gulf the more expensive. If someone is really interested, I may put mine on the market. 12 yr old, 3br 2 bath 1800sq ft. on almost an acre, Gulf access,new dock and 7000# lift
