Agent Begins Selling Beaver Lake Condos
Even though the ground breaking isn’t scheduled until later this fall and a building permit has yet to be purchased, pre-selling is well underway for the Grandview Heights at Beaver Lake condominiums.
Element Realty Group’s Nicky Dou said her company is already accepting contracts. She expects 75 percent of the units to be under contract before the first of the three 15-story towers are completed in about 18 months.
“We are primarily focusing on the first building, which is the closest to the lake,” said Dou, the exclusive listing agent for the project.
“Pre-selling kind of gives you a better price, and we are offering to the first 60 people who go under contract a premium package upgrade that’s estimated at a $45,000 value.”
Prices range from around $325,000 for a one-bedroom unit on a lower floor to $1.2 million, which is for the largest unit with the largest terrace on the 11th floor.
“We were originally not going to do it that way, but we had an executive at one of the largest corporations in the area actually ask us to do that for him,” Dou said. “But he’s been out of town for a while and there’s actually been two other people looking at it.”
There are about 115 condos planned for each of the three towers that are situated on 175 acres in Avoca.
Construction of the project has been delayed by a lawsuit filed by nearby property owners who claimed the high-rise towers would jeopardize their own recreation activities on the lake. The lawsuit was dismissed in June by Circuit Judge Xollie Duncan.
