Real Estate Tips

Your boat fits the dock. Can it make the trip to open water?

Check bridges, water depth, clearance and travel time before buying a waterfront home.

If you’re buying a Cape Coral waterfront home for boating, check the entire route before you fall in love with the backyard.


How many bridges are between that dock and open water? What’s the clearance at high tide? Is the water deep enough for your boat? How much of the trip will you spend at idle speed?


And here’s the question that gets overlooked: are you actually going to enjoy that trip every time you take the boat out?


Bring your boat’s measurements and talk through the route before you make an offer. A beautiful view is great. You want a home that works for the way you actually boat.
