What concerns me more is Safe Habor's business practices. They are a joke. They are literally trying to make every marina compete at prices that support year round boating like Florida or Texas. I still wonder how legally they can basically have a monopoly on marinas in the US?
Specifically regarding the slip purchase... If you have a friend that's tied to the banking industry with mortgages, see if you can get in touch with their underwriting group and ask them what you're proposing to buy. Some groups will specifically not lend on housing that's built in/on water because there's no way to tie ownership to the water... Especially if it's owned by the Corp of Engineers. You're basically buying 'paper' with little value. Just do your research.
