Life on Water
For yacht owners, buying a home poses a unique set of challenges. Betsy Magde, a Miami-based Compass agent, has some tips and insight for shopping for these particular properties. First, speak to an agent to determine the maximum size boat that the community allows. Some neighborhoods that cater to yacht owners include Bay Point, Venetian Islands, and Sunset Islands. These are Betsy’s favorites because of their easy access to Biscayne Bay, calm waters, and substantial water depth, evening during low tide. Additionally, keep up with your yacht’s maintenance. “The most enjoyable yacht is the one that the owner can use on a short notice,” she says. “It makes it more fun to own a yacht and enjoy the beautiful water views of Miami. Betsy has devoted her knowledge and expertise of waterfront homes to her brand, Drop Anchor. The name symbolizes that your home is where you anchor yourself, your life, your family, and your future.
