This portion of the city is comprised of both SW Cape Coral & SE Cape Coral, and includes a variety of canals widths, boating run lengths, and bridge heights. It also offers valuable properties featuring direct, unrestricted access to the Gulf of Mexico for those who need to accommodate a particularly large or tall vessel, including sailboats. Due to the complexity of the South Cape Coral canal system, it is highly recommended that if you aren't familiar with the waterways to read this South Cape Coral section of my area overview first. Rather than rewriting everything here, I recommend reading that overview.  You can also open a detailed map for reference here (pop-up window). ...overview continued here

Pricing of Gulf access waterfront homes in Cape Coral: For a 1960’s built small home needing renovation, but with desirable unrestricted boating access (no bridges, no locks, no lifts) expect $175,000 on up for bottom priced foreclosure properties.  In this case, it is being sold for the land value alone.  Some buyers will choose to retain the current home, perhaps remodeling it as it will be extremely dated! Others will [eventually] bulldoze the home (about $10k to do so) because the choice waterfront location warrants building something much better on the lot.  This happens frequently in the Yacht Club section of Cape Coral, as the small original homes were built on choice waterfront lots. If this matches up with your expectations you should focus you search on the Cape Coral Yacht Club but also give consideration to the following Cape Coral neighborhoods: Savona, Palaco Grande, Cornwallis, and Everest.

For a superior 1980’s built home, behind a bridge or two, with a bit more square footage (ex: 1600 sq ft) expect around $225,000 on up. Neighborhoods to target will be pretty much any of the areas West of Del Prado Blvd in Cape Coral (the Country Club section, Pelican, Mohawk, and Santa Barbara below Veteran Pkwy areas)..

For a 2000 built highly desirable home with great landscape, a tile roof, 2000 square feet, with a pool, dock, and boatlift with say a 25 minute boating run to the river and 1 or 2 bridges say $350k+. Focus on the Southwest edge of the city. These will be superior areas of similar, newer homes.

That same home with a very short boating run, and unrestricted access (sailboat access, meaning no bridges) is going to get notably higher: say $450,000+. The rationale behind these gets tricky!  Understanding the complexities of canal widths and depths, locks/lifts, boating runs, vacation rental and resale appeal of the location and many other factors are critical when buying in this price range as the list prices will be all over the place in this category! My South Cape Coral tutorial explains all of this much further, it is highly recommended that you read it, if this is an area of interest.

My name is Dan Starowicz and I am a Realtor with Sand Castle Realty. I have four area offices to better serve my clients, located in Fort Myers, Naples, Bonita Springs and my main location in Downtown Cape Coral (885 SE 47th Terrace, Suite A, Cape Coral, FL  33904). I specialize in waterfront property (including foreclosures and short sales). As a local resident for the past 25+ years, I can safely say that I know this area quite well and bring my expertise to every transaction. I also enjoy my share of boating in this region, so I can safely advise clients as to the pro’s and con’s of different area waterways, from a boaters perspective. Do please note: Though I cover nearly all of SW Florida, Cape Coral is by far my main focus and the bulk of where my business is conducted.  I can advise buyers that I am very much an expert on the complex Cape Coral canal system, so by all means feel free to ask questions!

In addition to being a Realtor, I have a background with years of experience in the mortgage business and as a hands-on Real Estate Investor too.  I’ve personally bought bank owned property, imminent foreclosures, short-sale property, auctioned properties and estate sale homes.  I am experienced in handling transactions involving 1031 exchanges, estate sales, trusts, self directed IRA purchases, foreclosures, short sales and many others too. 

This particular website is one in which I’ve personally designed myself in an effort to give the public the best possible source to learn about the area and to have the most comprehensive information and real time search capabilities as possible.  It may not have the prettiest pictures or the flashiest format, but the substance should all be superior.  Because I assemble this site bit by bit in my spare time, you might run into the occasional error. If you come across anything notable, I’d sure appreciate if you could point it out to me, that way I can correct it and everyone benefits from it. As far as other sites go: It’s my opinion far too many use the same cookie-cutter formats, which don’t do you any real good.  They may also leave up old information to generate inquiries from interested buyers.  That is not the case here! I want to empower the public to make intelligent, well informed decisions. Hopefully when you are ready to conduct business, you will consider me for the job.  And of course I’m here to answer any questions you may have.  Thank you. Dan Starowicz.
