Map & Owner's Profile
Year Purchased: 2004
Why the Owner Chose El Matador
I first bought this condo when I moved to Florida to start my new job. My son had just gone to college and I was living here with my daughter for 2 years. I decided to move after my daughter started college at FSU but couldn't let go of our beautiful condo! Instead of selling it we chose instead to preserve the interior decorating and rent it out to friends and guests through VRBO.
Owner's Map of El Matador
I currently work as a nurse anesthetist in Fort Walton Beach and have 2 beautiful children who are both now in college. My son and I enjoy managing our condo rentals as we take pride in the effort made to decorate and maintain our previous residence. Because of my work hours, my son (age 24) handles rental inquiries while I manage the payments and well-being of the guests who decide to rent our condo. It has been almost 3 years since we started doing this and we continue to enjoy making our guests happy in beautiful Florida!
