(World of ResidenSea) that has been built and is operating. A sister ship is under plans/in construction. Condos are in 1000 - 2000 sqft size and sold for $2000 a sqft. |

So you are saying that the condos used as tourist sites were a pain so the condo owners purchased the ownership of the ship from the builders (which I saw). Sounds like the condo did not want to be a hotel; nothing that says that the "real estate" project was a failure. The prospects for building a second condo are still there. Just keep the low rent crowd off the decks. More of a chicken and egg thing. Sales weren't what they owners had forecasted, they rented units (for revenue and to attract potential owners), condo owners got ****ed over the riff-raff, circle again. It wasn't a purchase either but a 99 year lease. Viable? Probably? But Residensea may have been the pioneer......and got the proverbial arrow in the back of the head to show for it. |
