pinellas real estate: First Time Homebuyer Tax Credit for Pinellas Real Estate: The Truth, The Whole Truth, and Nothing but the Truth - 06/05/09 04:25 PM
The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 was the heavily debated economic stimulus package that was signed into law in February of 2009. The home buyer tax credit is a component of this package and was created to promote home ownership. The bill originally provided for an $8,000 tax credit available to first-time home buyers for the purchase of a principal residence on or after January 1, 2009 and before December 1, 2009.
There's great news, however, if you're in the market to purchase Pinellas Real Estate! Buyers may now use the credit upfront as extra down payment money, to lower payments, pay discount … (1 comments)

pinellas real estate: Beware: Don't Miss the Boat(s) on Your Pinellas Real Estate Purchase! How Rising Mortgage Interest Rates Hurt Your Bottom Line ... Even in a Declining Market - 06/03/09 09:01 PM
As Pinellas real estate prices have continued to drop each month, some Pinellas home buyers continued to play it cool, sit back and wait until a particular Dunedin Fl neighborhood becomes affordable in their eyes. Beware! There's another boat you don't want to miss.
Conventional interest rates had been hovering at historic lows of 4.75% - until this week, where they ended at 5.27%! It is unlikely they will stay in these low ranges, whether the 4's or the 5's for any length of time say most experts. Mortgage interest rates are tied to the bond market which has begun to take hits … (0 comments)

pinellas real estate: A Taste of Pinellas at Vinoy Park in St. Petersburg This Weekend - 05/29/09 11:31 PM
A Taste of Pinellas is happening this weekend and it looks like it's going to be even bigger and better than last year. The setting alone (on the waterfront in Downtown St. Pete) is spectacular, but the celebration of great food and music makes it one of the best annual parties in Tampa Bay. This event is like the Taste of Palm Harbor on steroids. Admission is free and all of the proceeds go to support All Children's Hospital.
Food and drink can be purchased from the restaurant booths with tickets -- a sheet of 8 tickets sells for $5 and … (0 comments)

pinellas real estate: Pinellas Real Estate Sales as of March 2009 - 05/28/09 10:42 AM
As Pinellas Realtors, we know that we have challenges ahead. Yet, as we study the statistics here at the Pinellas Peach, the signs are becoming clearer with each passing month that we are in a slow recovery pattern, at least in terms of the absorption rate. In fact, within the Keller Williams Realty Palm Harbor Florida office, we've all felt a significant uptick in buyer activity (and truly appreciate those rare days off!). Want proof?
Units Sold: There are more Pinellas condos and Pinellas homes selling now than have since 2007. Single family home sales were up 19.3% year over year … (0 comments)

pinellas real estate: What Are You Afraid Of? Confessions from a Palm Harbor Realtor - 02/19/09 10:15 PM
What are you afraid of? Overpaying for your Pinellas home while being wham-blasted with negative news about the economy and the housing market? Or perhaps secrets horrifically and seemingly worse? OK. I'll go first.
I am dreadfully frightened of:
Public Speaking Snakes Having to work for someone else (translation: fear of failing with our real estate business - which, by the way, is the opposite of reality, but a fear nonetheless) Slugs, snails and leeches (they belong in the same category, don't you think?) In these times, more than ever, it's easy to venture into the realm of being fearful. Yet, I think we … (2 comments)

pinellas real estate: Indian Bluff Island, A Must See if Searching for a Palm Harbor Waterfront Home - 01/10/09 11:03 PM
Indian Bluff Island is Palm Harbor's best kept secret neighborhood. Most Palm Harbor residents have never even heard of Indian Bluff (the residents refer to it as IBI), and that includes many folks that have lived in Palm Harbor for years. Indian Bluff is a secluded neighborhood north of Alderman Road, West off of DeSoto Avenue and then West on Oceanview (the causeway to the island), just south of Wall Springs Park. Most of the homes are either on the Gulf of Mexico or on canals with easy access to the gulf. The more luxurious homes are well appointed and stunning in their own … (1 comments)

pinellas real estate: Pinellas Home Prices: Exactly Home Much Have They Fallen? - 12/04/08 10:47 PM
As Palm Harbor Realtors, we're often asked exactly how much Pinellas real estate prices have fallen. It's usually the buyers that are asking because Pinellas home sellers are having a harder time accepting the reality of today's market. Prices will rise again to those crazy 2006 levels, but it's going to be many years before that happens (speculation for another post). Yet this Zillow graph helps put perspective on the fact that homes always appreciate over the long term. In the mean time, if you know someone selling their Palm Harbor home now, give 'em a hug and a stiff drink and then, and only then, … (0 comments)

pinellas real estate: The Pinellas Trail - All 34 Miles of it and Still Growing ... - 09/07/08 08:25 AM
At The Pinellas Peach, we are raving mad about The Pinellas Trail, which is the stupendous 34-mile artery that connects residents from Tarpon Springs to St. Petersburg.
Originally the Orange Belt Railway in 1884, The Pinellas Trail is now used by over 90,000 bicyclists, runners, roller bladers, and Sunday strollers per month. In 1983, the trail was the brainchild of a man who's son was killed while riding his bike. By 1990, the first 5-mile section opened connecting Taylor Park in Largo to Seminole Park in Seminole.
The trail has now grown to over 34 miles long as shown on this map, … (0 comments)
