This is a comparison framework, not a price ranking — and deliberately so. No unit prices, dues, or assessment amounts are included here, because none were verified for these two buildings in this draft. If a figure cannot be verified, it is left out rather than estimated.
For each building, check the same things, in the same order: building age and milestone/SIRS position, reserve health, and any planned or approved assessments; how the building is actually run and maintained — staffing, upkeep, and amenities as they are today, not as they appear in marketing photos; beach and bay access, layout, and day-to-day living after a tour; and the monthly-cost structure, using verified figures only.
Which building suits a given buyer best is a judgement call, not an invented ranking — it depends on what that buyer values, their budget structure, and how they plan to use the home. If you are choosing between these two, send Mike the buildings you are comparing and he will walk through the finances with you, building by building.
