True Tales of Key West Real Estate in the Time of Covid 19 - Part Six


This really happened.

A Realtor friend of mine had a broker's open to showcase her new listing of a very expensive home in Key West. There are few homes that aren't, but this one was really expensive! The event was catered. Lots of agents showed up for free wine and tidbits. And to see the house.

I had seen the house severs years earlier, long before the current owner did the renovation. I was impressed by all the work and money spent on updating the home. It had all the bells and whistles one would expect for a two million dollars plus home...

...except the snazzy new kitchen was useless. It was a show stopper as far as style. It had expensive stainless steel appliances and high end cabinets, but the minimalist cabinets and limited counter tops made it totally dysfunctional. Prior to the brokers open, my Realtor friend hid all the appliances and things one would use in the oven so as to hide how dysfunctional the space really was.
Not the actual kitchen, but you get the point!
Florida law does not require Realtors to disclose that a murder occurred on a property or that a kitchen is useless. Nobody died in that house and nobody cooks there either.

Happy Fourth of July!
