Tampa Real Estate

In an anticipated move, new home builder TOUSA today announced that it is filing for bankruptcy protection under Chapter 11: "TOUSA, Inc. and certain subsidiaries are filing voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code."

In its press release TOUSA states that the filing includes ENGLE homes. Engle homes has local New Tampa presence in Live Oak Preserve and the Hammocks.

If you are under contract with them to have a house to be built, I would highly recommend that you speaker with your real estate agent.  (I know it wasn't me.)  If you did not have a real estate agent, I think it would be prudent to speak with an attorney.

Additional info. regarding the filing can be found in their PRESS RELEASE .   Previous information regarding TOUSA and Live Oak Preserve has been posted by me at:  www.NewTampaHomes.blogspot.com

I call Bayshore Boulevard in Tampa the street of dreams.  The Bellamy on Bayshore is perhaps the grandest of all condominiums in Tampa: 

From the moment you walk into the Bellamy on Bayshore Boulevard in Tampa you will think you have entered a palace.  This luxury condominium has it all, including a grand entry/lobby with an elegant fountain, wine cellar, conference room, gym with lockers and sauna, casual and formal club rooms, library, billiards room, and its own movie theater. 

The Mediterranean style building, built in 2006, has large outdoor areas as well, including an enormous pool with cabanas, outdoor fireplace, scent garden, and lanais.  Guest suites are available for a nominal fee for your overnight guests, and garage parking is another great feature of the Bellamy.  Additionally, Located minutes from downtown, you will find spectacular views with balconies overlooking the bay and the city.
