So, if you’re thinking about building or expanding your home’s garage, stop. There’s a better way to get the garage space you need — at Monterey Motorsport Park, adjacent to the Monterey airport.

 

A 4x Better Value for Precious Space

Let’s take the village of Carmel By-the-Sea. According to information compiled recently by Carmel Realty Company, the average value for homes in Carmel works out to $1,159 per sq. ft.

So, if you have a 4,000 sq. ft. lot with a 1,500 sq. ft. home on it, and you’d like to build or expand a garage, you’ll be allocating a bit more than $1,150 per precious sq. ft. to where you park your cars and pack your personal and/or business items onto shelving.

Compare that to investing in a spacious garage-condo at Monterey Motorsport Park, located right off Highway 68 near Monterey Regional Airport. The 88 one-of-a-kind garage units ranging from less than 700 sq. ft. to more than 4,250 sq. ft. at this upscale car-oriented community are currently going for approximately $310 per sq. ft.* That’s a roughly 4x better value than devoting your limited property space in Carmel to a garage!

So, if you want to do something with your Carmel land, which would you rather do? Expand your family’s living area? Or devote space to a garage? The choice is obvious.

Camino Real 3 NE 8, a 1,630 sq. ft. Carmel home that closed in 2014 for $2.4 million without a garage.

Avoid the Regulatory Runaround

In addition, by not undertaking a garage construction project — you’ll avoid endless delays and miles of red tape trying to get the project approved and built. City planning meetings. Nosy neighbors telling you what they think of you disturbing their peace with your construction noise and dust — plus the volume of your cars’ engines when you work on them once the garage is completed.

You’re looking at months of hassles and mounds of fees for architects, contractors, planning approvals, unavoidable delays, and other issues. Read more about scary garage stories.

Located at 3rd and Lincoln in Carmel, this 1,717 sq. ft. home closed in Jan. 2018 for nearly $2.2 million with an additional $60,000 passed through so the seller could build a one-car garage before the transaction closed.

Preconstruction Provides Added Flexibility and Incentives

Construction is set to begin in the spring with occupancy by early 2019. Because work hasn’t started yet with the construction drawings still to be done, now’s the perfect time to buy — when you can customize your unit by taking out a wall or two, installing climate control for your cars or a wine collection, or making other desired modifications.

What’s more, Monterey Motorsport Park is offering special preconstruction incentives for people who purchase a unit before our groundbreaking. We’ll provide a free electric garage door lift and grind and polish your garage floor to a glossy mirror-like finish — yours at no additional charge for getting in early to this unique car community.

Not the Best-Kept Secret

While it’s still early, the word is getting out fast. And people like you are really excited. Already 30% of the units have been reserved just a few months after the project’s announcement. And remember, our now sold-out Garage Unlimited of Monterey project was nearly 75% committed by the completion of construction. So, if this sounds like a solution to your garage’s growing pains — don’t wait! Contact us Today
