New law alters condo landscape [South Florida]
The husband-and-wife real estate team of Norm and Janice Holloway sells more Venice condominiums than just about anybody.
But when the couple settled into their own waterfront abode at Pointe Whitecap in Venice nearly six years ago, Norm promised Janice that he would never sell it out from under her.
“I told her, ‘You can live here until you die.’ Because, you know, the man almost always dies first.”
Until this summer, Janice Holloway could depend not only on her husband’s promise, but also on the rules that govern this over-55 bayfront enclave. They prevent tearing the place down without the consent of the owners of all 32 units.
