You picked two homes. Here's everything I found.

A ground-floor corner condo in the Saxony section of Kings Point. The enclosed patio looks out at the canal, parking is assigned with guest parking besides, and the floors are tile throughout.

The listing calls it an "updated kitchen" — those are its exact words. The A/C is new, too.

In the unit — the listing's own detail fields say washer and dryer inside, in a laundry closet. That's confirmed on the listing itself, not a guess.

Listed at $85,000 in April, cut to $70,000 in July, taken off the market in September and relisted at $70,000 on September 21. Before that, this same home was listed last year at $115,000. It has been on and off the market a lot — that can mean a motivated seller, and it's exactly why I check everything twice on this one.

Association fee is $820 a month — it covers security, water, sewer and pool service. Taxes are $1,591 a year.

The association has to approve the buyer before a sale closes, and the community doesn't allow pets.

No hurricane protection is mentioned anywhere in the listing — no impact windows, no shutters. If this is the one, that's my first question to the listing agent. The listing sources also disagree slightly on square footage (880 vs 907) — I go by the smaller number.

A ground-floor condo in the Capri section of Kings Point, concrete-block construction, built 1978. First-floor living — no stairs. There's a screened patio, and assigned parking steps from the door.

Honest answer: the listing doesn't describe the kitchen at all — no "updated," no "original," nothing. It calls the home "well-maintained" and leaves it there. The kitchen is the first thing I'd look at in person.

The listing's detail fields list a washer and dryer and a laundry closet in the unit — so on paper, it's in-unit laundry. The written description never mentions it, so I verify it the moment I'm inside.

Listed at $89,000, cut to $87,500, then cut to $75,000 on October 14 — about 95 days on the market in total. Two cuts usually means a seller who wants it sold.

Association fee is $732 a month — it covers cable TV, grounds, building maintenance and security. Taxes are only about $735 a year.

Two big ones on this home: it's sold AS-IS (with your right to inspect it), and the listing terms say CASH. I'd confirm both with the listing agent before you count on anything else.

No hurricane protection is mentioned. And ignore a $93,000 version of this address floating around online with "furnished, water views" — that's a different home's information pasted onto this address. This home is $75,000, two bedrooms, no water view.

A note from me: Fiona Barone, one of the agents on this listing, is the same agent from the Capri H unit I toured for you earlier this month — the one with the wallpaper that went under contract. I've worked with her on Kings Point before.
