On the Market for a Lighthouse?

So you are looking to buy a new place and you are not sure what to get. Maybe a cottage, or perhaps a split-level home is more your style. Ever consider buying a lighthouse? Yes it’s possible. In order to place a bid on a lighthouse, you are going to have to deal with the US government. According to SmartMoney, the General Services Administration is looking to sell a few properties the government no longer uses. Not only that, but they are lowering the prices of these properties as well, and yes, lighthouses are part of those government properties that are being liquidated. It's not easy though because you need to have the cash available. No financing available here. The advantage of owning a lighthouse is the location on the beach of course. According to SmartMoney renovating a lighthouse into a home can cost in excess of $500,000! If you're not into the lighthouse market and simply decide to buy a nice condo in the Jacksonville area, make sure to hire the right moving company. The local Jacksonville movers will quilt pad wrap your delicate belongings so you know your valuables will be protected.
