The center of the common wall is the dividing line, and party wall agreements determine who maintains responsibility in cases of repair or destruction. Maintenance fees depend upon the age of the building, its number of units, the size of its property, the amenities, and rules and restrictions. Owners of town houses are, for the most part, full-time Key West residents. If you wish to purchase beachfront housing, owning a condominium is without a doubt the way to go. Along the south side of Key West are several relatively new, multistory beachfront condominiums with elevators, enclosed parking, pools, tennis courts, and hot tubs.
Units range in size from one bedroom, one bath to three or four bedrooms and two or three baths.
This particular complex offers many of the above amenities, but parking is outdoors. La Brisa II is a newer, more expensive, condominium complex, and The Beach Club offers only waterfront units. Other condominium complexes include 1800 Atlantic and Casa Casalles. The population in any one complex varies according to the time of year. Thanksgiving through March is typically the peak resident season when occupancy is full, while May begins the low season of less than 50-percent occupancy.
