Six Ten Franklin and Downtown Developments-Tampa, FL

So what's going on with Six Ten Franklin Condos? Well they have a big sign up and a website but no one has said anything about when they will be ready to start writing contracts. When you go to the website you have to provide all your information, but they give little. "Starting in the 200's" I believe is what they say.

Be sure that if you have a Realtor you have their number, email address, and company name handy. If you don't register them when you visit their site, apparently you can't have representation later on in the game unless you are willing to pay a Buyer's Agent directly. All builders pay the commission to a Buyer's Agent so it winds up not costing the buyer to have a Real Estate Agent on their side, this particular developer wants to know upfront if you are using a Realtor.

If you don't have a Buyer's Agent and would like to get someone to represent you, you will need to contact an agent first before you register yourself online at the Six Ten Franklin website, or a Realtor can register for you if they know what your criteria is. To find a Realtor who can assist you in your purchase you can visit www.TampaBayLofts.com and fill out the registration form. They have information on all the projects in Downtown Tampa, including SkyPoint resales, the Residences of Franklin St., the Arlington and the Element. All have resales or original units from the developer that have been released or turned back. These may also be a good option for someone who needs a place to live in the next 3-6 months.

Can we count on the Six Ten project being built?
A friend/colleague of ours said they may be scrapping the whole development because one of the partners was bailing out. That is rumor as of right now, as we haven't spoken with anyone regarding if this information is true. It's out there however, and it may happen.

We will post more information as it becomes available to us. If anyone out there know something please post a comment!
