That family has some stars aligned to even be alive. Sad dad hasn't been found, yet.
This was one of the original articles on the family that goes into Angela was worried about missing a volleyball tournament, and who's cat was just found (go up a few posts on last page for that story). Florida condo collapse: 16-year-old survivor was conscious after falling 'several stories' . Within this original article is information on how to keep updated on their progress (think against TOS to pull out and link directly) and where to send letters/cards etc.
Miami-Dade Fire Rescue gives behind-the-scenes look at Surfside building emergency operation
The condo association only had 6.9% of the recommended level of money to complete repair and replacement projects and stay financially secure,
What were the SurfSide HOA Fees compared to other Condos the same size and location HOA Fees?
The HOA fees were $851 BEFORE the special assessment. The assessment for the repairs was going to add another $900 a month to that — for the next 15 years.
Not sure how that compares to others in that area. But mine in Los Angeles were $300 a month for a nice 3-bdrm condo in a nice area.
That is just the reality of living in such a desirable location. It’s expensive to live next to the ocean.
One of my friends is moving to a small condo, it is only 1200 square feet, and it is inland, not oceanside. Including HOA and mortgage her monthly payment totals $3900.00 per month.
Nearly 4,000 per month and she has an ocean view (distant) from only one window.
I keep wondering about damage to the hundreds of mid-rise and high-rise coastal condos in my county on FL Gulf Coast.I imagine people living in the ocean view condos are going to be re-thinking in light of what happened at Surfside.
I definitely think those owners along the coastline everywhere that have been whining and griping about expenses will shut up or put up now. Or, maybe, they'll just sell and walk away. You can throw a fit all dang day, but you're still going to pay for maintenance. I'm in Sarasota County. I have friends who are so frustrated with those who hold up maintenance, refuse to pay, complain constantly, veto any expense, etc. It's like why are you even living here, if you're not willing to take care of it???We have a nice little condo ( 1200 Sq ft) in Fort Myers on a golf course: We used to vacation in Marco Island, in a high rise, right on the ocean: The ocean view was a million dollars- that was the price to buy the condo--- Everybody wants the ocean view- understandably- it is amazing. I imagine people living in the ocean view condos are going to be re-thinking in light of what happened at Surfside.
