One/two city, city palms, south tower.
Make sure you figure 700 or so a month into your monthly budget for condo dues. Should get a real nice unit for that price.

What are the recent thoughts on Condos in that downtown area? Also what about renting them out if you had to? Is the rent down in that area high enough to cover the note.

Rent on a unit in your price range is roughly 1800-2200 so depending on what you are putting down you will probably just be breaking even maybe losing a bit if you rent it out.
If you don't need a building with a waterview the townhomes in Cityplace are a decent value right now. You can get a unit under 300k and get around 1700 sqft of living space.
What's attracting you to Cityplace?

I would prefer a smaller size place with a view, over a larger place with no view. (as far as the townhouse option)


Reasons why I was looking to live in that area:

Seems like they have put a bunch of money into that area. There are a lot of shops, bars, and restaurants around. Ive been there a few times and the crowd seems to be a younger crowd.

Dunno, are there any reasons why you dont think its a good area or idea?

It's a nice area if you are comfortable with the condo dues. If you want to be close to the action with a view it would probably be the best fit for you.

Same basics, prob max out on asking price of 300,000 due to high HOA fees.

at least 1000 sq
Parking
Pool
WD in unit (hook ups)
Younger Crowd
Very short walking distance to Bars, Restaurants and Shopping
