Just Sold in Courtside of Broken Sound Country Club ~ This was a Short Sale

I just sold this gorgeous courtyard home in the Courtside subdivision of Broken Sound Country Club. For those of you who don't know the lingo, a Courtyard Home is one in which the swimming pool and patio are in the front of the house. You usually enter through the entrance doors into a courtyard and then the front door of the house is through the courtyard. Many courtyard homes in Boca Raton have detached guest houses as well.

This stunning home in Broken Sound Club has four bedrooms and four baths in the main house, in addition to a one bedroom suite guest houses. It has beautiful Brazilian wood floors throughout, and over 3400 square feet in total. 

Broken Sound Club is an equity country club in a fabulous central Boca Raton location. 

This was a Boca Raton short sale, which was subject to the lender approving a short payoff of the loan. My lucky buyer was able to acquire this special property for $537,000. It was originally listed in August of 2009 for $815,000. The sellers paid $730,000 for the house in May 2005. The entire short sale process took only about three months from contract submission to the successful closing. When a short sale works out like this, everyone benefits: The buyers got a great house at a fantastic price; the lender ends up netting more than in a forecosure; and the seller is able to avoid foreclosure and get a fresh start financially. A winning proposition!
