Giving Back to the Island Community
In keeping with the commitment made when we became Realtors, selling and helping to buy Useppa real estate, the time has come to live up to that commitment: to donate 5% of our gross commissions to Useppa Island charities, 501c3’s, of which there are two…the Useppa Volunteer Fire Company and the Useppa Island Historical Society. Though we haven’t gotten a real check yet, we have closed two deals in a little more than two weeks and are excited to live up to our pledge of giving back to the community. And, we look forward to our third closing…and to writing another check. Thanks to all that have supported these entities…and we all should!
Dave Thomas and Julie Lachman (from Dunedin, Florida) closed this week on Karma Cottage, the former home of Mike Albert and Karen Connery. Located at 130A Useppa Island, this 3-story attached villa overlooks the intercostal waterway and marina to the west and Pine Island Sound to the east. Dave & Julie are long-time social members of Useppa Island Club, but this is their first home on the Island.
Mike and Karen Albert, the owners of Karma Cottage since 1981, are moving just a few doors north on the Pink Path to a home they have had under renovation since early last summer.
This good news comes just weeks after we announced the sale of 513 Useppa Island to Mike and Rosa Cupello, from Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada. They closed on Music! Music! Music! Cottage, 513 in The Village mid-May. They, along with their three children, look forward to spending their time on the island boating, sailing, playing tennis and exploring all the activities the community has to offer.
