If you’ve got the money and want to live on the beach, there are a lot of options. Taking a look at the 10 most expensive properties on Fort Myers Beach breaks down into 3 categories.

  1. Properties that survived the hurricane. Repairs could be made and the residence is ready for you to move in.
  2. Properties that didn’t survive. In this case, you can buy pristine location lots. Some have been cleared away and are ready for construction, some still have ruined homes on them.
  3. New construction.  Someone else has already bought the property and made plans for the new residence whether it’s a home or condo. You put your money down and can move in when it’s done.

There’s obviously benefits to each. For the first, that home is clearly well built and can withstand a lot. The second one means you get to build exactly what you want, within code of course. The third seems to be mostly for condos. I see language like “Phase 2” and “Phase 3” around these.

If you think these properties are pricey now, wait until Margaritaville is open and there’s a LOT more people coming to the beach. I really think the real estate market on Fort Myers Beach has more room to run. Provided we can make it through this hurricane season. One storm, as we know, can change everything.
