central florida: Orlando Real Estate Market this week in review - 07/27/09 04:46 PM
Orlando Real Estate Market in review for the week of July 19 -25, 2009. There is a portion of the Central Florida real estate market that is moving at a fast clip with properties flying off the shelf, then there are other segments of our market that are barely moving off the starting line.
Orlando's First Time Home buyers need to be educated and work with a buyers specialist dealing in their price segment. Properties under the $150,000 price point are almost in what's considered a normal market and no longer a sellers market. So lets she what has happened this … (1 comments)

central florida: Renting vs Buying... Which is right for me - 07/21/08 08:23 PM
If you decide that you should continue renting or need to fix items in your credit there are a few things you can do. In recent conversation with a buyer I told her to ask for a Home Purchase clause in her lease when she renewed. It would allow her out of her lease in 30 days should she go under contract for a home and not have to pay a penalty. My client was succesful in doing this, so while she is fixing a few items should she be ready to purchase in less then a year she is free … (3 comments)

central florida: Orlando Real Estate Market Are you looking for a short sale or bank owned property? - 04/30/08 01:44 PM
So as most people know Orlando is ranked 13th for the most amount of foreclosure, depending on who's writing the article we are in the top 10. With that said it's not a Buyers Market unless you are buying and a wealthy man once told me when the streets are running red with blood, buy buy buy. Didnt matter what it was and well part of the reason he is quite wealthy.
In total Central Florida has 3,420 bank owned or short sale properties.  In the past 24 hours there have been 48 new properties put on the market in Seminole and … (0 comments)

central florida: Each community in Orlando has a personality all it's own, what is Winter Park FL? - 03/10/08 07:04 PM
Once a haven for artists, writers and some of the most influential families in the country, Winter Park was promoted in the late 1800s as a refuge for "the cultured and wealthy." those early boosters would almost certainly be pleased to see how it all turned out.
Today, the city is home to 70 parks and nearly as many oak trees as residents. It's eight square miles encompass lovely old homes, an upscale shopping district, a prestigious liberal arts college, a plethora of galleries and museums. The heart of Winter Park is Park Ave, stretching 10 blocks and boasting more then 100 … (2 comments)

central florida: Each community in Orlando has a personality all it's own, what is Lake Mary FL? - 03/10/08 06:53 PM
Lake Mary is one of Central Florida's hottest growth areas, thanks in large part to the persistence of Jeno Paulucci, a self-made millionaire who made his fortunes selling frozen Chinese food and then frozen pizza.
The city today sits at the epicenter of Florida's Hightech Corridor, which follows I-4 from Tampa through to Daytona Beach. Along the route, government and industry have joined forces to attract leading-edge companies in such fields as telecommunications, medical technology and microelectronics.  Lake Mary started as an isolated railroad station known as Bents which closed in 1910. Lake Mary is home to top rated schools, miles of … (0 comments)

central florida: Unsual Things to do in Central Florida - 08/07/07 02:42 PM
Ok so the next time you visit Orlando and even if you live here you have to try the Pancake Breakfast at the Old Sugar Mill. It's a little bit of a drive but well worth it. It's a hidden secret that has been here since I believe late 1800s or early 1900s.
 It's located at Deleon Springs in Deland, FL. It's an old sugar mill that has now been turned into a pancake house. They have griddles on the tables like at a Kobe's etc.. but you get to cook the pancakes yourself. I believe it's $4.50 for all you can … (0 comments)
