What are the monthy HOA fees in Stoneybrook in Estero and what do they cover? I heard they were @ $225/month.

Asked Fri Oct 3 2008, 21:18 by Lisa D - 33928 - Home Buying - 1 answer

Chris Griffith answered:

Lisa,

Stoneybrook of Estero master HOA is currently $794 semi-annually. Naturally, villas and condominiums will have additional maintenance fees.

In addition to the HOA there are some transfer fees upon purchase $1,500 one time fee and a $150 application fee.

I included a link to a Stoneybrook information page if you'd like to see the amenities, etc.

I am concerned about signing a lease on an apartment that could go into foreclosure if the landlord does not

Asked Thu Aug 7 2008, 23:45 by Adam T - Miami - Foreclosure - 6 answers

Chris Griffith answered:

The last few people that I spoke with that had this concern I directed to the county clerks website. Locate the property/owner records and look for any filings that could be recent judgements or lis pendens that might indicate legal action on behalf of a bank or home owner association. Every month when you write your rental check, check the clerk's website.

It would be wise to verify that the "landlord" actually owns the property by this method and also checking with the management company to make sure they own the condo and are current with assessment payments. If they do not make the assessment payments the management company may turn off fobs or other electronic passes that provide entry to amenities.

Good for you for being careful in this languishing market. I've heard a few sad stories of tenants losing their deposits. You're a smart man. - Fri Aug 8 2008, 04:32

How can I find an experienced short sale agent to help me buy a home?

Asked Sun Aug 3 2008, 19:22 by Nadja - Florida - Home Buying - 6 answers

Chris Griffith answered:

Unfortunately, the listing agent is the person you'll really be needing to be experienced. The buyers agent has little control over calling the bank, poking, cajoling or trying to move things along. A buyers agent can write a contract, give you great advise and do a CMA on the property for you but the agent that listed the home is driving the buggy, so to speak. - Mon Aug 4 2008, 04:26
