Kings Point in Delray Beach

Buyer be very careful. I used to live there until just recently. First off, the recreational area, both the board and management company are not interested in communication or transparency. They do not have to follow the same rules as the various associations in Kings Point. They consider themselves above everyone and new ideas are not possible with this outdated group of very old people. They need new blood, yet they just keep on trucking with a board that does not believe in accountability. Second, be aware that for new owners, the cost, just to get your car tag and ID card is (as of this posting) is $1500. This is over the top compared to other communities in the area. Check out the management company for the prospective unit you are looking at buying very carefully. If the association is not properly funding the reserves, RUN!! Inspect the budget as well as the bylaws. In the bylaws, what is the length of time you must own before renting? THIS COMMUNITY IS NOT PET FRIENDLY!! They allow for service dogs and emotionally support animals, but several unit owners are not pet friendly. How does the association consider owners who do not vote in decisions made (budget and board voting)? Do they not count at all, or are they counted as confirmations? If the building has multiple units owned by one unit owner where the unit owner controls a vast majority of the voting, company, or LLCs operated by one company, RUN!! Look at the history of your building’s condo fees. Do your research!!

This is a great place for year round or snowbirds. All the amenities you can ask for! My unit was purchased in 1973. We have made renovations over the years the buildings and facilities are kept up to date.

I sold my home in Arizona and moved to a villa in Kings Point as a widow. Later I met my husband and we both live in this lovely villa with two bathrooms and we don't have to take care of any landscaping. We are happy here and recommend Kings Point highly.

Kings Point is a true value among 55+ communities in Florida, and throughout the U.S. You can buy a 2-bed, 2-bed condo with separate included laundry room for washer and dryer from $65,000 to a bit over $100,000, and less for 1-bed, 1.5 bath units (early 2017). Many original buyers from the late 70's and early 80's have or are aging out. The average age is likely between 75 and 80, but living at Kings Point allows you to be as involved or uninvolved as you want. It's basically like living in any very quiet condo community, yet with as much opportunity as you want for swimming, golf, inexpensive live shows and recent movies, as well as scores of clubs to cover almost any. Two on-site restaurants. Superb location in west Delray between I-95 and Florida's Turnpike. 12-15 minute drive to charming, trendy downtown Delray Beach and the Atlantic Ocean. Lots of good shopping and large medical center nearby. 24-gated, manned security. All exterior condo maintenance and landscaping included in HOA dues, as well as free continuous bus service to nearby shopping, medical center and Boynton Beach Mall and Boca Town Center Mall.
