Photographer's House For Sale

You have spent a lifetime of working for people and living their dreams.  Now take that first step and live your own dream. Explore your own vision of Photography as a Photographer covering Fort Pierce, Vero, Port St. Lucie and the many exciting places on the Treasure Coast. It you take one of my workshop courses, I will refund the price of the course and take it off of the price of my house.

    If you watch the video you will see that this is not your average house for sale offer. Yes, I am offering a house for sale, details further below, but I am offering far more. Although I will sell my house to a legitimate buyer I would prefer to offer a package deal to someone who is looking to expand their knowledge of photography and perhaps have some type of photography business. Further because Spanish Lakes Fairways is an adult community the potential buyer must be 55 years or older. This is fine for me because I am looking for someone who is retired but not dead. Someone who is looking to do some of the things they weren't able to do in their work career. So inaddition to offering things like a computer two printers, lighting and background setups and the right software to make exciting pictures I am also offering one month of free training so that the perspective photographer can learn some of the things I have learned such as building  and getting visitors to your site, video slide shows and basic lighting and developing your pictures. If helps to have a resource who can answer your questions when you need to learn the many things you need to know in photography.   If you like my pictures and think I have something to teach you and you are looking to accelerate your development as a photographer: than this is a good deal.

Thank you for showing interest in my house. I will try to give an overview of what is for sale. 

Manufactured house built in 1989(price $56,000) but with most areas of the house rebuilt in 2004 and 2005.  Includes two bedrooms and two baths, Florida room, tool shed and carport.  Although I own the house I rent the land and must pay a maintenance fee each month. Maintenance includes lawn mowing and trimming and taking care of the complex (golf course, pools, clubhouse and the many activities that take place in the complex.) I live in an adult community so you must be 55+ but young at heart because there is plenty of social activities going on.

      I have decided to sell the house as a turn key sale (pretty much everything comes with the house: washer and dryer, 2TV’s, surround sound, DVD recorder, furniture, pots, some utensils, sheets, towels, garden equipment including a ladder for the roof etc.) In addition I will put in a new refrigerator upon completion of the sale(Nothing wrong with my current refrigerator, but I thought the new owner might want something with an ice cube making machine in the front that is also more energy efficient.) Although I am willing to sell to any legitimate buyer my first choice buyer is someone with an interest in photography. As you will see in the slide show I only use the Florida room as a mini-photo studio for portrait photography. Further I put white blinds on all the windows in the Florida room to improve the lighting in my pictures and absorbe some of the heat during the summer months. The living room was redesigned complete with accent lights and a fresh coat of paint to show off my pictures. I like looking at my pictures and if I'm the only one who likes looking at my pictures it was worth the effort. The sale includes a Dell dimension computer (brought October 2003) with dual monitors (21” and 17”), 2gigs of ram and a decent video card, new hard drive, 2 printers (HP and Epson) and a HP scanner.  All of the pictures and the slide show itself were created using the software in this computer. Sale includes lessons in how to use the software. I also own a Canon 5d MkII(cost $2700 new), Canon 10d , 3 canon lenses,  3 Canon flash units and a Canon flash transmitter to coordinate the units: all of which I will sell at a nice discount, if the buyer requests such as part of the overall package. 

  A lot of money was spent in rebuilding the house because of the two hurricanes in 2004. Having gone though that experience I rebuilt things (new roof, carport, shed and Florida room.) to withstand a hurricane level 2 and 3 with less damage than the house I brought.  I put in a new roof that featured better material than the old roof had been built with.  I also put up new siding on the outside and reinforced with ½ in plywood boards (I was unhappy with the flimsy material they previously had under the siding.) I had already put hurricane and burglar resistance film on all of my windows the new front and screen door and sliding glass door to Florida room. Before the hurricane I also put in a new air conditioner and heating system. The last thing I did was put up shutters on every window except the kitchen window overlooking the carport.

  Obviously there are more things I can mention such as monthly maintenance, insurance costs (not cheap but compared to the price of insuring a $250,000 home really quite a bargain), tax (really low) and the pluses and minuses of living in an area that is close to many exciting areas(see> Fort Pierce Photography) but in a more relaxed country setting without the noise and overtaxed city living. If you are a serious buyer I will answer all questions.
