What this means for buyers: Jetty East has a lot of inventory right now: 19 units listed against 8 sales in the past year. That gives buyers leverage, and every sale closed below list, by 2% to 10%. Most 2-bedroom units are asking $585,000 to $660,000, well above the two 2-bedroom sales of $430,000 and $490,000. Expect to negotiate on those. Financing matters here: listings describe Jetty East as a non-warrantable condotel, so conventional Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac loans are not available. Plan on cash or a portfolio loan. Listings also mark the property as leasehold, so ask for the land-lease terms early.
