capecoral: What's Included With HOA Fees? - 03/16/18 07:53 PM
Are you looking for a home in a community with all the extras? A community with a spectacular clubhouse, workout facility, pool and golf course? Having access to these fine amenities often means living in a community with a homeowners association, or HOA.

Do you qualify for a mortgage and if so, how much? How much are the property taxes? Are there any mandatory fees for the community?  How much are the HOA fees?  If the community has amenities, always make sure your Realtor informs you of what the … (1 comments)

capecoral: Waterfront Living in Southwest Florida! - 03/03/18 09:24 AM
In Southwest Florida, one of the most desirable homes is on the water with Gulf access! Living by the water or near a beach means 24/7 access to sun, surfing, boating, fishing, and fun! It's also a place where your friends and family want to visit often, a little too often for most. Nothing compares to a beach sunset and Florida offers some of the best beaches in the world! 
 
Here are a few fun facts about 2 of my favorite cities in Southwest Florida: 
 
1) Cape Coral - Bordered by water on three sides, Cape Coral has more than 400 miles of canals. You … (0 comments)

capecoral: Don't Overspend when Buying a Home! - 03/03/18 08:10 AM
Buying a new home is one of the most exciting things we do, it's also one of the biggest investments most people will make in their lifetime.
 
A couple of things to remember when you start the process:  
ALWAYS USE A REALTOR! 
Don't Overbuy: Although you may qualify for more money than you thought, only borrow what you are comfortable with. Keep in mind, you will always have something unexpected to happen as a homeowner. Some mortgage companies may try to talk you into the higher mortgage amount but always look at the total picture: Taxes, HOA Dues, PMI, etc.  You will want to … (3 comments)

capecoral: Building a New Home - 02/26/18 10:22 AM
If the Lee Parade of Homes has inspired you to build a new home, here are a few things to consider: 
Realtor Representation: Work with a Realtor that has experience with new builds, someone familiar with the process and knowledgeable of the builders in the area. Keep in mind, the builders' salesperson is focused on what's best for the builder and not always what's best for you! As I work with you as your Realtor, I make sure you get a great price, get nothing but the best in products and will be with you from start to finish.  Meet with … (0 comments)

capecoral: Southwest Florida Real Estate & Economy - 02/12/18 10:45 PM
As a real estate broker in Southwest Florida, I want to stress the opportunities for selling real estate in the area. The real estate market has remained very strong and home values are on the rise. It is definitely a strong market for resale and new construction. 
Since the market is so strong, some homes are not on the market very long. Some homeowners are selling their home and can't find or buy another home quick enough which is creating a great opportunity for rental homes. 
The Florida economy is thriving & employment opportunities continue to increase with an expected 180,000 new jobs … (0 comments)

capecoral: Hopefully you have a pool heater for these cool nights in SW Florida! - 01/15/18 08:09 PM
Even in Southwest Florida where we swim outdoors year-round, pools need to be heated during winter, especially this winter. If you use your pool to wind down after a long day, on a chilly night the pool water heated at 84 degrees can feel amazing!
If you don't have a pool heater and you’re looking:
- Gas pool heaters usually cost less initially, usually priced 30% lower than brand-new electric heaters. Some electric heaters can cost twice as much as gas heaters. It's important to consider how much you’ll spend to operate the heater on a monthly basis, year after year.
For example, … (4 comments)
