estero florida: Bonita Springs Real Estate Market Report August 2015 - 09/11/15 11:37 PM
Bonita Springs Home Stats – Consistent Cash DropOver the last several months one of the few things we’ve seen in the Bonita Springs real estate market is the consistent rise in prices and the consistent drop in cash real estate transactions.  We’re at an all time low for cash transactions in Bonita Springs about 48% cash sales.  Balancing that change is a small rise in FHA mortgages used to financing Bonita Springs home sales.  There are very few condominium complexes that are FHA approved so that’s the reason for generalizing “home sales”.

Estero played their first home game Friday, Sept 14 against Baker.  Bummer, defeated - score is irrelevant.  It was tied minutes before half time.  The thunder started rolling and I made tracks.  Since I didn't have a kid on the field this year I didn't feel obligated to chance death sitting on metal bleecher in a thunderstorm.  Better luck next Friday, boys.  Estero plays Cape Coral Mariner next Friday at Home.  If you're looking for the full season schedule:  Estero High Football Schedule.
