Island Water
Association
The Suwanee Aquifer lies approximately 700 to 900 feet
below the surface of Sanibel and Captiva Islands. This is the raw water source
that is used to produce the drinking water for island residents. Our raw water
source contains many minerals. It is brackish water with a moderate salt
content. The salt content of the raw water is the primary reason that Reverse
Osmosis (R.O.) is used as IWA's treatment technology. The Island Water plant
can produce 5.2 million gallons of drinking water per day.
Membership in the IWA and
water meter installations: $2,175.00

Real Estate Contracts >Contingency Contracts
Buyers walk into your home in your area and fall in love with it. There is one problem--they will have to sell their home before they can buy yours. Their offer contains a contingency clause which makes the purchase dependent upon selling their present home. Should you accept such an offer?
Your decision should be based on several factors. Is their home being professionally marketed at this time, or are they trying to sell it themselves (a risky proposition!)? How long has it been on the market? Is it overpriced? If the house doesn't sell, can the buyers take out a bridge loan or make other arrangements to get to the closing table? How important is timing for you? Will the buyers agree to let you continue marketing your home and accept a non-contingent contract (and void theirs) if their house does not sell? Contingent contracts often work out well, but you need the help of a professional to weigh the pros and cons.
