]]>The post Destin Condos – Short Sales Hurt by Past Due Condo Fees first appeared on Rulnick Realty.
]]>Brainstorming solutions is one of my favorite parts of negotiations. Here is what I found:
Florida Statutes, Section 718.116 states:
The liability of a first mortgagee or its successor or assignees who acquire title to a unit by foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure for the unpaid assessments that became due prior to the mortgagee’s acquisition of title is limited to the lesser of:
1. The unit’s unpaid common expenses and regular periodic assessments which accrued or came due during the 6 months immediately preceding the acquisition of title and for which payment in full has not been received by the association; or
2. One percent of the original mortgage debt. The provisions of this paragraph apply only if the first mortgagee joined the association as a defendant in the foreclosure action. Joinder of the association is not required if, on the date the complaint is filed, the association was dissolved or did not maintain an office or agent for service of process at a location which was known to or reasonably discoverable by the mortgagee.
In my case, there are about two years past due in condo fees. I have asked the association to agree to a compromise to accomodate the short sale. Basically, if the condo goes to foreclosure, they will only be paid 6 months dues by the senior lienholder.
If they could reduce the balance owed in any amount to allow the short sale to occur, then the association will gain by:
1. Immediate income to fund a project already in financial need
2. More than the minimal 6 months past due that a foreclosure action will pay them – at some later date
3. A new owner who will certainly be paying his dues on an ongoing basis, providing immediate cash flow
By agreeing to a lesser amount to allow the short sale, that does not mean the association will not pursue the homeowner separately for the balance owed. But a compromise can allow the short sale process to take place,both benefitting the condo project’s financial position, and helping the homeowner solve his dilemma.

As a Short Sale Specialist on the Emerald Coast of Florida, I sometimes run into a situation where a property cannot be saved from foreclosure. Either the seller contacted me too late, or the property combined with the market was so fraught with problems, that a sale could not be obtained. Luckily, we can often save a property from foreclosure right up to the sale on the courthouse steps.
I recently had a townhouse listed for sale in a gated subdivision in Destin, Florida. The property was encumbered with association fees of $800 per month. In my area, that is outrageous for a non-waterfront property. In fact, to overcome objections to such high fees, the list price had to be lowered substantially, and then the numbers still did not make sense to a typical purchaser.
Well, the day before the foreclosure sale we got a contract on the property. My team scrambled to get it to the short sale lender, in this case, EMC. They failed to cancel the foreclosure in a timely manner, and despite efforts to rescind the sale, they let it stand.
A few days later I got a call from the “new” listing agent, who let me know she had received the assignment from EMC. Without hesitation, and without being asked, I sent her all my information on the property. I sent her details on the new association fees, the contact numbers for the association, and the name, telephone number and email address of the agent who wrote the offer. I also emailed the buyer’s agent directly to let him know he should contact the new broker, so perhaps he could make his deal work.
I gave it my all. I wish the new listing agent and the buyer’s agent the best. And I hope they succeed.

]]>The post Destin Real Estate Market Report first appeared on Rulnick Realty.
]]>In the Destin Florida real estate market, there are 3105 properties for sale— 935 single family homes, 1869 condos, 206 townhomes and 401 lots. For purposes of this report, the Destin and Sandestin markets have been combined. Sandestin is in the Miramar Beach Florida postal area of Destin, in Walton County. The Destin market sub-area is in Okaloosa County, Florida.
The average list price for Destin real estate is $373,685, a drop from $556,136 one year ago.
The average sale price for Destin properties is $327,609, down from an average sale price of $502,099 one year ago.
The median sale price for Destin real estate is $267,000, down from $344,000 one year ago. Note the “median” statistic may be more indicative of market trend than “average”, because “median” indicates that one-half of the sales were higher and one-half were lower. An “average” may be skewed higher due to some more expensive home sales that affected the resulting figure.
The report indicates 222 days average market time for Destin houses, condos and townhomes. This figure is low, and does not reflect all listing periods of a single property. It only tracks the last listing period of the sold home. If a property were listed multiple times and failed to sell during those times, that is not reflected in the figure. Many Destin homes were listed more than once until they finally sold, or “re-listed” by the same real estate agent.
The “Months Inventory” figure for Destin Florida real estate is 45 months, or almost four years. Months inventory indicates how many months it would take to sell all the improved properties in the Destin real estate market at the current rate of sales. Normal markets inventories are usually six to seven months.
The inventory of Destin homes for sale is 3105, down from a year ago at 3474.
Destin Florida has 476 short sales and foreclosures for sale, or 15% of the all properties for sale.
