ONE down, ten more to go...Vacation rentals that is

Anyone who knows me (Larry) knows I get bored maybe too quickly. I constantly analyze alot of different things to determine what is the next big opportunity to work on. Well recently it has been to renovate and rent out our duplex on Anna Maria Island. This is our second renovation into a weekly rental on Anna Maria and our first is right across the street. So, lately the Chatt family has not made long distance geographical moves however lots of moves we have. God bless Jennifer...Anyways, officially the West side of our duplex is ready. Through alot of sweat of our own, Mark, and Patti, 131 West White Avenue is open for BUSINESS.

We spent a great deal of time planning the WEST side as it is a 3 bedroom 2.5 bath. A spectacular pool was put in with a 1 ton rock that forms the top of the 5' tropical waterfall as well as a HUGE sun deck that is 3" under water with 4 jets that pop up out of the pool surface to create hours of toddler fun. Lastly, we have seating for more than 30 outside in 20X40' screened in enclosures so that the outdoor living is maximized. XBOX, Tv's with DVD's, Plasma, Granite, Stainless Steel, I think we have it all. We have made the rental prices very aggressive which has helped to already book out most of the season. Not to worry, late January and earl February are still available.

Of course 131 West and once 131 East which is scheduled to be complete FEB1st will be on the fabulous Island Real Estate Vacation Rental website. Click the direct link to more information about 131 W White avenue, Anna Maria, FL vacation rental. Take a look at some of the pictures - lots of work, not for the faint of heart but once complete it helps make it all worth while.




So there you have it, getting 131 W White avenue renovated has taken about 50% of my spare time. The other 50%? New office on Pine avenue, gutted everything but the kitchen of a 3 bedroom canal home, and getting 131 E White Avenue ready, oh yah...we are moving in 1.5 weeks.
Every year or so its good to clean out the pipes in the mind and take on 4X the amount that you "think" you can take on. It redefine's your "busy" periods. But, this is the last time I do all this at once! Of course a few close pessimistic people at Island Real Estate and close friends say, this wont be the last....you have about 10 more left in you....Nope, its my NEW YEAR's resolution to relax more with friends and family. A very noble and necessary cause and since it's my New Year's resolution it's a done deal to happen...right? RIGHT?
