Finding Florida island real estate without leaving home

A friend who knew I was going to Florida a few weeks back asked be to bring her some of the real estate magazines that are available in restaurants and convenience stores. Our friend is nearing retirement and she’s thinking about a resettling near a beach, maybe in a nice condo on an island.

I was happy to deliver a stack of magazines, but I also suggested that her computer could show her far more real estate options than what she would see in this publications.

For example, let’s say she’s heard about a popular South Florida area like Singer Island near West Palm Beach. She could use Zillow to get an overview of real estate prices in the area, then zoom in to collect more information about the area and some of its better condo developments.

For a closer look at Singer Island properties, the Singer Island Real Estate website would be a good place to check. The site has details about the island and profiles of more than a dozen condo developments including Dunes Tower, Inlet Pointe and Martinique.

Any prospective condo buyer who spends some time online exploring their target location and its real estate market will be a much smarter shopper when they are actually on site.
