    I thought real estate prices had gone down, $8million (including stamp duty) for less than an acre in Warwick, unless your going to open a supermarket you would need to be out of your mind to buy this and even then you sanity would be questioned, guess its sitting on a gold mine.

  2. More with less says:

    7.6 million? Yea right, I am sure someone will buy this right up for that price.

  3. Time Passages says:

    I guess they are starting high. Less than an acre with an old supermarket building on it. I’m thinking 2 – 3 million.

    • i gotta be me says:

      what planet are you living on? retailers are shuttering up all over Bermuda! Besides, there’s no jobs, so no paycheck to go and buy stuff anyway!

  5. pebblebeach says:

    good luck with that asking price…

  6. Sharon Hensdiek says:

    I say make it an establishment like Sandys 360, or a shopping Mall with stuff in it that people really want to buy. #umjustsaying

  7. Not for that price says:

    LOL , just like all these landlords living in a dream world who think that they can still get $3000 a month for a place that they’ll soon be very luck to get $900 a month for.
    Time for them all to wakey wakey … the days of unbridled real estate greed (and the attendant cost structure) are over ! !

    It would make a lovely little race track. Take out some walls, design a course, n add the cute little go carts . Any one interested???? Lol

  9. i gotta be me says:

    Re you kidding me? a race track anywhere in bermuda is just dumb. when i was a kid we built our own go carts and pushed or pedaled… no engine! but a noisey go cart track next to a church? no way.
