Edgewater Condos in Coral Springs (hair salon, foreclosure, renters)

[seashell75]

We are looking at buying a condo at the community of Edgewater Condos in Coral Springs, Fl. There are some unpleasnt comments about this community but they are all dated back to the beginning of 2008.

If anyone has any comments they would like to share it would be appreciated! Do not want to make a bad decision by moving there and being sorry

Wife and I used to live there. I would avoid it. If your buying # 104...that's where we used to live ! It's probably the nicest one. Problem with Edgewater is that back in 2006 everyone bought them like crazy based on pure speculation...nobody ever really wanted to live there. It's 90% renters. You don't really want to buy in a place that is majority renters because renters don't care about the upkeep and most of the time the landlords who are desperate to rent, will bring down the rent way cheap and rent to trashy people. We lived on the bottom floor and noise upstairs was horrible. I literally had to buy earplugs to be able to sleep at night. My car was vandalized once, the fitness room is a joke...graffiti everywhere, teenagers running aroundr rampant like dogs in heat....my wife was harassed and stalked by some teenager in a car a couple of time until I confronted him and that was the end of that. Our neighbors had a teenager with serious mental issues and had to call the cops and they baker acted her. I have seen a lot of weird stuff there. The ladies in the hair salon in the shopping center next door can see from the front door what looks like constant influx of cars in and out at one side of the complex and they think it's drugs. Cops are there on a routine basis and there have been a couple of fires already. Many and I mean MANY MANY of these places went into foreclosure or are already going. Guess what is going to happen to the already high HOA fee's? They are going to skyrocket and owners will be slapped with special assessment of 1,000 dollars here, 500 dollars there. DO NOT BUY IN EDGEWATER...trust me on this, you would be making a huge mistake. The place is destined for doom.
