We have been given official word that the developer units at the Towers of Channelside are all sold and the sales center is closed!

So what’s next for these luxury high rise condos?

Well the good news is that now the homeowners will have control over the association.  The bad news is that if you didn’t get in on the foreclosure pricing that was being offered by the developer you are out of luck!  Buyers who thought the prices would drop and waited are now faced with only a handful of resales making this the ideal time to sell if you are an owner.

In February, 2010, 120 of the residential units had been sold, leaving 137 available residential units. Turns out that the bank pricing was so attractive that they never had to lower their price to sell all the remaining units. Amazingly, It only took a little over a year to sell these 137 units ranging in price from 160K-for a 1 bedroom unit to just over 1M for a Grand Penthouse.

TBO.com reported that developers filed paperwork with the Aviation Authority board at Tampa International Airport for height variances for several new towers in downtown Tampa.

Could this be the comeback we’ve all been waiting for?

Many restaurants and bars have popped up in the last few years in the Downtown Tampa area, however there are only a few residential buildings in Downtown.  My favorite is Skypoint Condos. Sales are strong and currently it is the only Luxury Hi-Rise for sale .

You can check out the development here 

Last year a study was conducted on residential development and the projected growth for housing.  People living within 3 miles of downtown equal 98,080, however there are only 3,000 people who actually live in Downtown.  No wonder developers are planning for the future. You can read the 2010 Downtown Tampa Residential Study here.

Proposed Condo Developments include:

• Twin 320-foot tall residential and retail towers on three acres, directly across the street from the St. Pete Times Forum.
• A 551-foot-tall residential tower, bordered by Jefferson and Whiting streets
• One 557-foot-tall residential tower at the southeast corner of Morgan and Whiting streets

Skypoint Condos in Downtown Tampa is the first high rise luxury residential building in Downtown Tampa. At one time, they were completely sold out. I remember the lines around the sales center when they were first offered for sale about 3 years ago. If you were looking to buy one of these hot properties you were considered lucky to get selected through their lottery system.

Skypoint has every amenity you can ask for in a luxury living atmosphere. Throw away your gym membership because you won’t need one at Skypoint. There’s a Cardio Room, Weight Room, and plenty of weight machines, all looking over the fabulous downtown skyline and University of Tampa.

Quiet Opening

The First 30-Days … Not So Quiet-Tampa, Fl Luxury Condos Make Big Splash!

WOW … for a non-promotional Quiet Opening over the past 30 days, we’ve had quite the fanfare.

Eager buyers have already snapped up 16 magnificent homes overlooking Tampa’s busy waterways and cityscapes — solely as a result of social media and verbal word-of-mouth. 

The JMC Realty team is very grateful to our local Realtor partners, who immediately recognized and embraced the value of these homes as a result of the seller’s newly released prices — on average 40% to 45% below the original offering. That equates to $185 to $190 per square foot, with views that position The Towers of Channelside as the finest address in Tampa. It doesn’t matter how long you’ve lived in the area, you’ve never seen views like these before.

I’ve been following recent media reports on the stabilization of pricing and how now is the best time to buy. If the media are reporting good news, you know we’ve reached the point where values are at their best!

With Financing now available, the ability to take advantage of the first time home buyer credit and a STABLE HOA, what else could you ask for!

Here’s the BANK RELEASED pricing, photos, and more.
