Pending home sales [nationwide] jump in October - 11/30/11 03:28 PM
If you follow the market report data that I report, you know that Florida, in particular southwest Florida, has experienced a terrific year for real estate sales with substantially declining inventory. Now, the indicators are starting to spread throughout the nation. First to boom, first to bust, first to recover.
I sense a general change in certain trends with many potential buyers, despite the good year, still sitting on the sideline. This is changing. The season rental market for 2012 is all but booked up. People are scrambling to find a property. Those who waited for the last minute in years … (0 comments)

How Much Are the Closing Costs? and Home Finances 101... - 11/05/11 01:38 PM

A common question asked of every REALTOR, almost always from a potential buyer while shopping for a home. The same question comes from sellers too, but it's asked differently: How much will I net after the sale?
There is always a lot of confusion over this especially when the term "cost" is used in the question which should be associated with a one-time out-of-pocket expense.

Getting Ready for a Safe Boating Season - 11/02/11 10:01 AM
Soon, southwest Florida will be filled with our seasonal residents and guests. You could call Florida the boating capital of the world, with more than 900,000 vessels registered it's the highest in the nation.

I'm not a boater, but living in southwest Florida I see and read the local news daily including the continuous stream of reported boating incidents. Many years ago I did earn a private pilot license and I did so with a lot of education and training. With airplanes, this is required and … (1 comments)
