Thinking of Moving to Hollywood,Florida

[Rosemary67]

After finding the beach area a little pricey, I am about to bid on a condo at Sun Haven Towers, 1720 Jefferson Street. Does anyone have any information about this area or complex? I'm bidding on a two bedroom, two bath and it does have a nice pool and seems decent. Please, all you who know Hollywood, help me out with your comments. Thanks!

I'm not familiar with that condo but 17th and Jefferson is a much better neighborhood than 25th and Fillmore. It borders the Hollywood Lakes neighborhood, which is arguably the best area of the city. 1720 Jefferson is right off US 1, though, which can be a bit sketchy in places.

Thanks for answering. I think it's a much better situation than the house on Fillmore. The street seems nice and it is in walking distance to downtown. The building has good security and the comps in the building are good. Not too many units come on the market and there are no rentals in the building. That is good for a condo building when it comes to resale and it seems like a stable building. I have a bid in and I am waiting. I bid a little low because the one drawback is the kitchen really needs redoing. The appliances are rusted and the cabinets are a little beat up. I would gut it, so I bid accordingly. Hope I am not making a mistake.
