What buyers ask about this home
What are the estimated monthly carrying costs at 940 88th Street, Surfside, FL 33154?+
Property tax (after sale): $25,637/month est. Estimate only, not guaranteed. Verify before you buy or sell.
Will property taxes go up after I buy 940 88th Street, Surfside, FL 33154?+
Usually yes. In Florida the assessed value resets to market value in the year after a sale, so the seller's current tax bill is rarely what a new owner pays. Budget roughly 1.8–2.0% of the purchase price annually until you file for homestead exemption and the Save Our Homes cap (or the 10% non-homestead cap) starts limiting increases.
Does 940 88th Street, Surfside, FL 33154 need flood insurance, and what drives the premium?+
Most of Surfside sits in a FEMA flood zone, and lenders require flood coverage in high-risk zones. Premiums are driven by elevation certificate, flood zone, roof age and shape, and whether the home has impact windows or accordion shutters. Ask for the current declarations page, the four-point inspection and wind mitigation report early — they set your real cost of ownership.
What should an inspection focus on for a home like 940 88th Street, Surfside, FL 33154?+
In coastal South Florida, prioritize roof age and permit history, whether windows and doors are impact-rated, the seawall and dock condition on waterfront lots, drainage and elevation, plumbing type, and any open or expired permits with the city. These items, not cosmetics, drive both price and insurability.
What extra costs come with the waterfront at 940 88th Street, Surfside, FL 33154?+
Waterfront ownership adds seawall maintenance and eventual replacement, dock and lift servicing, higher flood and wind premiums, and salt-air upkeep on exterior finishes and equipment. Confirm bridge height and water depth at low tide if you plan to keep a boat.
Is there room to negotiate on 940 88th Street, Surfside, FL 33154?+
This listing has been on the market 0 days. Leverage comes from days on market, price history, comparable closed sales and the seller's motivation — not from a fixed percentage.
