Properties, Houses and Condos for Sale in St Petersburg Treasure Island Florida

And the best use for a Publix paperbag is.............

Use it as a new toy for your cats. Trust me it is better than TV to see my two cats play with the paper bag. One jumps in the bag and starts running around the house. The other one just sees a fast moving paper bag going by and attacks it. This goes on for a while till number one hits a wall or is tired of being attacked.  When you have two 3 months old kittens in the house everything turns into a toy.

Everybody is talking about a Short Sale In St. Petersburg Tampabay, Pinellas County.
But most people are not familiar with the term Short Sale.
For homeowners that need to sell their property but can not find a buyer for the price they need to pay of their mortgage, a short sale sometimes is the only option other than going in foreclosure.

Here in St Petersburg Tampabay the market is over floating with Real Estate listings. People have bought properties 3 or 4 years ago and have paid more than they could get in today´s market.
Now these homeowners need to sell and can´t find a buyer. If someone makes an offer it is usually much lower than asking price. The home owner might not get his money back or he might not even get the amount of the mortgage back.

Now the options are limited, file for bankruptcy, or go into foreclosure.
The other option, which might make much more sense, is a short sale.

Our St. Petersburg Tampabay area is high on the list for cities with Short Sale properties.
Talk to your bank or lender, see if they will accept less than the mortgage amount and forgive the balance.

There are a lot of factors that come into play and it is not as easy as it sounds, but you and your Realtor can work on it and chances are, you get out of the deal without loosing everything.
See, banks are not in the Real Estate business, so they do not like foreclosures at all, they do not want to homes or condos, o, they are motivated to find a better solution. In some cases it can be loan modification but in most cases that I have seen here in St. Petersburg Tampabay it is a Short Sale.
To get things started, have your agent prepare a CMA that shows the real market value of your property, take this and documentation of your income and reasons why you have to sell and bring it to your bank. (or let us do it for you)
Do it early, do not wait till the very last minute, this process takes a little time and time is not on your site.
So, get started before it is too late.

Have you ever asked yourself "What attracts so many people to Seminole Isle?"

Here is what one of my buyer's had to say.

Here are just a few of the common answers.

Seminole Isle is a gated community and I like the security of it.

I love the grand entrance; make me feel that I live in a very special place.

I love the grounds, all the tropical landscaping and the water gives me a very relaxed and easy feeling.

Once I get home from work I do not have to leave anymore. Here in Seminole Isle I can go fishing of the dock or take my canoe out or stroll along the walkway and watch the birds and fish. I can go to the gym and work out or play a round of tennis with me neighbors or just relax by the fabulous pool and catch some sun.

Among other things, the location sold me on Seminole Isle. It is very private and tugged back but yet it is just around the corner from 3 major streets that get me everywhere in minutes.

I love the closeness to the beaches and the city of Seminole has so much to offer.

It was important to find a place that I liked, that was new but it also had to be in a very good school district.  Seminole Isle offers all of this.

Well, I love my two dogs and not many places accept pets. Seminole Isle was all I ever wanted AND I could bring my beloved pets.

Do not get me wrong, Seminole isle is a beautiful place to live but my motivation was the price. Where else can you get this much for your money?

I saw the models a few years ago and I instantly fell in love. Unfortunately it was a lot of money at the time. Now that prices have come down so much, I just had to grab my chance and buy a unit in Seminole Isle.
