Local Insight
At $162/sqft in a 55+ community with no HOA, this is genuinely affordable for the Venice market, though you're getting a 1973 condo that will likely need updates—factor in renovation costs before comparing to newer inventory. The bigger red flag is the dual flood zone designation (AE and X), which means you'll absolutely need flood insurance and should verify what that actually costs annually, since it could easily exceed $1,500-2,000+ depending on elevation and the lender's requirements. The location itself is solid for retirees wanting walkable Venice without the downtown price premium, but honestly inspect the roof, HVAC, and foundation carefully given the age and flood exposure.
