Key Largo - Rising Seawater

Jeff Ehman
Posted

Looking at a possible STR in the Florida Keys (potentially Key Largo). I would like to keep the property for 20-30 years. I'm not from the area but should I be concerned about rising seawater? Is that something people consider down there?

Thanks!

@jeffehman       There has not been any such thing regarding 2nd row becoming first row here in the keys.  No ocean front homes have fallen into the ocean or been overcome with water. Yes.  Sea level is rising.  So low level area tend to get some water when the tide is really high.  

The bigger issue you have is that you are seeking a str in the keys.  Monroe county only allows 28 day minimum rentals with the exception of 2 incorporated cities that allow weekly rentals.  So if you are wanting a str investment in the keys - your only option is key colony beach 🏖️ or marathon.
