Co Ops for sale in Edgewater Arms emerge from a 1957 co-op community in a 16-story tower of 86 units ranging in size between 650 and 1,950 square feet under air (UA). It sits on the Galt Ocean Mile (GOM) - a Fort Lauderdale Downtown enclave. It’s among around thirty other towers erected between 1957 and 2003 on 1700 yards of prime coastal real estate. Indeed, if the current structures with vintages dating back more than seventy years weren't there, modern mega-luxury developers would be fighting tooth and nail for the land. Why? Because Galt Ocean Mile consists of a thin real estate strip on the beach side of the A1A within spitting distance of:

• Famous Las Olas Boulevard to its southwest.
• The Intracoastal across the street, no more than three hundred yards away.

As a result, most Edgewater Arms residents on all sides of the tower have unobstructed outlooks over the Atlantic Ocean, waterways, nature preserves full of seabird action, and ocean-going vessels traversing back and forth. In between all this is South Florida's flourishing foliage on the campus lawns, stunning night lightscapes, and spectacular sundowns. Buying into the above scenario for less than $300,000 is almost unheard of (except in other GOM complexes like Royal Ambassador), but it's a reality.

Also a reality for buyers is understanding what a co-op is versus a traditional condo. In the case of Edgewater Arms, your asset is not the unit (brick, mortar, and other building materials) but unit equity in the company that owns all the condos. In short, it's an ownership format more common in places like NYC. The official definition is, and we quote, “A building jointly owned by a corporation made up of all its inhabitants." The potential drawbacks connected to the latter are:

1. Co-op fees can be expensive, but not in Edgewater Arms, where the HOA fees are less than 50 cents per month per square foot of condo occupancy (UA). On the contrary, this is below the GOM average for a full-service development (see more below).
2. The application process to purchase a co-op is rigorous. An application fee is required, and the co-op board must approve it (with a buyer interview in the mix). However, we understand it's a lenient, seamless process by all accounts.
3. Some co-ops don't allow financing or may require high down payments. That is not the case here.

The community's amenities and services are impressive, considering the low HOA fees pointed out above. Consider the following:

• High-impact glass windows and doors in every unit.
• Liberal rental protocols (with minimum 6-monthly rentals) allowed twice a year - attractive to investors.
• Sizable balconies to take in the views.
• Well-maintained high-speed passenger and service elevators.
• A magnificent private 200-linear-foot beach straight off the building's lobby.
• Cabanas, umbrellas, and loungers on the:
  •  White sands
  •  Oceanside heated pool deck.
• A property manager on-site focusing on structure repair and lawn care.
• Building hurricane and other event insurance.
• 24/7 security with a door attendant.
• Underground allocated parking & extra storage.
• A well-equipped fitness center for cardio and weight training workouts.

We have noticed co-op owners significantly upgrading their residences with Avant-Garde additions such as the latest marble, granite, wood, and stainless steel materials applied to premium kitchen appliances, floors, countertops, custom cabinetry, and other surfaces. As a buyer, you may discover recessed lighting, fitted remote offices, spa bathrooms with floating vanities, and more.

Our detailed pricing evaluation uncovered that five transactions occurred in 2022 and four months in 2023, reflecting the following metrics:

• From $332,000 to $469,000 prices.
• Unit dimensions of 809 to 1,400 square feet (UA)
• $257 to $357 per square foot (UA). 

Our takeaway is as follows:

1. It's startling that one can acquire a residence at under $300 a square foot (UA) in this caliber location. The reasons are the combined co-op status (not everyone's cup of tea) and early vintage.
2. A $100 per square foot variance in the closed deal pricing is a significant consideration, probably due to the remodeling level and vista quality.

As a result of (1) and (2) above, your best move is to hire us as your buyer's agent. We will advise on your negotiations to erase all confusion from the conversation. Notably, 1 condos are available in Edgewater in Fort Lauderdale.

Fort Lauderdale's Galt Ocean Mile is an iconic beach town offering New Urban Lifestyles (NUL) to all its residents. Therefore, living on this strip gives you walking or biking access to shopping centers like the Galleria Mall, supermarkets, Las Olas boutique outlets, boat docking, national chains, golf courses in all directions, umpteen restaurants, bars, coffee shops, excellent schools (see below), clinics, banks, professional offices, and more. Finally Clinics and an international airport are less than twenty minutes away by Uber.

More specifically, Galt Ocean Mile is near the Coral Ridge Country Club and a comprehensive system embracing green spaces, museums, and special events (e.g., Hugh Taylor Birch State Park, George English Park, Bonnet House Museum and Gardens, the Museum of Science and Discovery, and the Broward Center for the Performing Arts).

Alternatives to Edgewater Arms at prices under $300 per square foot (UA) + an unbeatable beach club downstairs + full-service amenities + New Urban Living are only in GOM. We recommend reviewing the following with you:

• Royal ambassador, Berkley South, Caribe, Continental, Coral Ridge Towers (East, North, & South), and Playa del Mar.
• Also, it's worth going north to West Palm Beach Downtown (WPBD) to cover options across the road from the Intracoastal with excellent New Urban Living benefits. The most comparable are The Slade, Portofino, and La Fontana, available for between $230,000 to $440,000.
