Oct. 28, 2010 - PRLog -- Fort Myers, Fla., (October 13, 2010) － Oasis Associates, LLC, new owner of luxury condominium Oasis, announced a public auction of 125 brand new waterfront condominiums to be held Saturday, Nov. 20 at 10 a.m. in the Harborside Convention Center, 1375 Monroe St, Fort Myers, Florida.  Units in the 32-story high-rise condominium building will be offered at auction at pricing discounted up to 60 percent of the original price. At least 40 of the units will be sold at “absolute auction,” wherein the condos will go to the highest bidders regardless of price, without minimum bid or reserve requirements.

Oasis is located in a gated resort-style community at 3000 Oasis Grand Boulevard, along the mile-wide Caloosahatchee River.  Amenities include an on-site marina, a one and a half acre waterfront pool deck with heated pools and spas, fitness center, clubroom, etc.  Each unit has waterfront views, floor-to-ceiling windows and expansive private terraces.

Units that were under contract at over $450 per sq. ft. and cost over $320 per sq. ft. to build when construction was completed in 2008, are now discounted to an average of $160 per sq. ft. Original unit pricing was up to $700,000 and now units are being offered at pre-auction prices starting at $160,000.

The Related Group, the original developer of Oasis, has been retained by the owners of the new venture to manage the project. “This is a rare opportunity to purchase a beautiful, well-constructed waterfront property with luxurious amenities in historic Downtown Fort Myers at prices adjusted to the new reality in real estate,” said Jorge Perez, president and CEO of the Related Group. “There is no other condominium development in Fort Myers that can even come close to Oasis.  Add to that, its great location with easy access to world class beaches, golf, shopping, sporting events, cultural activities and minutes from the international airport, and you have the perfect property.”  

The auction will be conducted by Fisher Auction, with over 38 years of experience in the real estate auction industry and a prominent leader in condo sales. Online and telephone bidding also will be provided in order to accommodate national and international buyers.
