Programme 2: Jan 23

FLORIDA: PJ AND SANDRA
PJ and Sandra's search for a holiday home continues in Fort Myers on Florida's west coast. Last week's search didn't start that well, but things were looking a bit more promising after their second viewing.

Despite being the famous winter holiday resort of Thomas Edison and Henry Ford and being the home of Dr Franklin Miles, inventor of Alka Seltzer, Fort Myers just isn't an exciting town. But one thing Fort Myers and Florida does boast is sunshine and lots of it, with temperatures throughout the winter months in the high twenties.

PJ and Sandra's first viewing is a 2 bedroom condo at the marvellously named, Moonraker Court. Once again, the real estate agent's name is Devaney, Don Devaney. At just over $100,000 with its own docking area, this condo is well under PJ and Sandra's budget of €150,000.

Another great way to see properties in Fort Myers is by boat, with lots of property along the banks of the Caloosahatchee River or overlooking the Gulf of Mexico. At PJ and Sandra¹s next viewing, Don's wife and business partner, Bernie is showing the property. The condo itself is certainly impressive though it's almost identical to the last. The only reason it's got a much higher asking price of $165,000 is that it comes furnished and it's got a very large dock.
