Waterfront Homes in Port Richey Florida - April 4, 2016


One of the best things about Port Richey Florida is living on the Gulf of Mexico.

Click Here to See Available Waterfront Homes in Port Richey Florida as of April 4, 2016.

Im here to answer any of your questions about Port Richey or Pasco county Real Estate.


Waterfront Home Sales in Western Pasco County Florida


Western Pasco county Florida is one of the most affordable places in Florida to purchase a waterfront home.  Located on the Gulf of Mexico, Pasco county has a number of waterfront communities to chose from. Hudson Beach, Signal Cove, Leisure Beach, Harbor Isles, Millers Bayou and Westport are just a few waterfront communities available to home buyers in our area.  The Gulfside Team of Florida Luxury Realty is here to assist you in selling or buying a waterfront home in Pasco county Florida.  We have local beaches like Hudson Beach and Robert K. Reese Park where you can enjoy the Florida lifestyle without all the crowds of Clearwater beach.  Our local beaches are easily accessible and offer places to cook out or relax under the shade if you wish.  

Selling your waterfront home in Pasco county is easy when you have the skill and knowledge of the right real estate professionals behind you.  You want a real estate agent who will do more than just put your home in the MLS and hope it sells.  We take a proactive approach the selling homes in our area and you can rely on us to advertise and promote your home to every possible buyer. 

Things We Ask When Selling a Waterfront Home:
How deep is the canal?
Is there a private beach and what is the fee to use it?
Who is your insurance agent and what is your annual flood insurance cost?
How large of a boat will your canal accommodate?
These are questions every waterfront home buyer wants to know and we want to be able to give your potential buyers the information they need.

Your homes photographs are very important when selling your home.  Over 95% of all home buyers start their search online and look at the homes photos.  We have once chance to make a great impression and keep that buyers attention on your home so I have taken numerous photography classes to provide you with the best photos of your home.  I take the time to crop and edit your photos to be sure they are the correct size and brightness. I'm sure you have seen homes online with poor photos and I bet it left you with a negative impression. My job is to make sure that does not happen when buyers are looking at your home online. We may decide that your home needs a professional photographer and if that is the case, we will hire one.  While on the subject, I would like to address drone photos.  While they are cool and the newest thing, I see many homes that expire without selling that had drone photos. We prefer to spend the drone fee in more photos of your home to get you the best photo gallery possible. 

Contact me online to request a market analysis of your waterfront home. I will prepare your report and it can be emailed right to you and if you wish, we can make an appointment for me to preview your home and see any updates you have made.  I strive to provide the best service to my customers and have lived and worked in the west Pasco area for over 20 years. 
Let me be your waterfront home real estate professional.
