"Affordable" is the key word here. Some good areas:
St. Pete/Tampa Sarasota Area around Charlotte Harbor/Ft. Myers I prefer the West Coast. Obviously Ft. Lauderdale/Miami area |

Re: florida power boaters
Affordable and waterfront are mutually exclusive terms in Florida. A few years ago, Port Charlotte was a good buy, but prices have caught up. Probably still the best deal in Florida, but certainly not affordable by my standards. :(

On the West Coast:
Longboat Key Casey Key Cape Coral Tierre Verde Sarasota These are just a few. Waterfront property is expensive no way around it. It has REALLY skyrocketed in the last four years. Have seen a couple of waterfront (canal) here in Nokomis (just south of Sarasota) with direct Gulf access for a reasonable price, (mid 300,00's), the same house in Sarasota will cost half a mil or more. We got lucky. Bought a house on a canal, five minutes or less to Intracoastal Waterway here in Nokomis in Aug. of 01 and paid 175K. Was just appraised at 345K, and when we get our new bigger, higher bridges (completed by end of 06) the value will double again. |

Re: florida power boaters
You can get a 3 br/2ba ranch built in the 80's on a canal 20-30 min off the river in Cape Coral for mid 300K and up. Great boating area.

Sarasota Bay is nice, prices start around 600K and up and I stress "UP". 85% on Sarasota Bay are a Mil or more. I love it down here, close to Sarasota, St. Pete/Tampa not that far away, Ft. Myers and Charlotte Harbor not to far away. Kind of the middle of all those areas. Boating is GREAT. Just pay attention to charts, don't have deep water here. Last week during an extremely low tide with a STRONG wind blowing out of the east, about a third of Sarasota Bay was out of water. |
