new construction: Buying new construction vs Bank Owned Foreclosure Property - 04/15/11 05:36 PM
There's been some debate lately as to whether you should buy New construction property versus a Bank owned foreclosure home in Orlando. I say either can be a great deal just depends what you are looking for and current housing needs.
Here are my top reasons you should purchase a New Construction Home in Central Florida:
It's brand new - never lived in, most the time you get to pick the fixtures and have outstanding warranties from 1-2 year interior to 10 year structural If the community is new there are no bad loans in the community meaning no … (2 comments)

In a previous blog First Time Home Buyers are running out of time to collect the tax credit I talked about how there are now less then 100 days left in this program.

They spoke the builders rep and received information on pricing and units available. The builder tried to tell them they would receive a better deal not using their Realtor (me), but they didnt listen.
They contacted me and told me what it would take to make … (3 comments)
