real estate: 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.

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)

real estate: Lake Mary Home Buyers would you buy for $1000 a month and no money out of pocket? - 02/26/09 09:58 PM
Ask yourself why havent you bought a home and what's holding you back. Maybe I can answer some of those reasons.
1) I pay $1000 a month in rent could I really get a place for less then what I paying in rent?
First time home buyers do I have a treat for you. Fantastic deals on new construction town homes in Lake Mary and Sanford. I can get you into these places for as little as $850 a month (payment includes: mortgage payment, interest, hoa, taxes & insurance). That's right less then what most people pay for rent.
