U.S. Rep. Katherine Harris made a bit of a killing in the local real
estate market recently.
Her Myers Park home, a stately 1936 mansion that Harris lived in when
she was secretary of state, was sold last month to a retired British
educator and his wife for nearly $500,000 more than she paid for it in
1999. Public records at the Leon County Courthouse indicate Harris
bought the former bed-and-breakfast, known as the Riedel House, for
$269,000 when she joined the Cabinet six years ago.
Buyer Michael Reiser, who is moving from West Palm Beach, said the
home at 1412 Fairway Drive needs some interior and grounds work but
that he hopes to have it reopened as a B&B next spring. Reiser said he
wasn't surprised by the near tripling of the price.
"Most people who have had property in Florida for five years have made
a bundle off of it," he said. "It's a very good appreciation, I agree,
but I'd imagine it's par for the course."
Reiser said he and his wife, Nafiseh, have been in the country about
six months. He said they're not political people but he knew who
Florida's most famous member of Congress was.
"Obviously, her fame had spread to England," he said.
