michaelbinderrealtor: Why Should You Use A Realtor To Buy Or Sell Your Home? - 03/03/18 01:55 PM
A Realtor's job is to act as a liaison between buyers and sellers. 
When Representing Buyers:

Thinking about selling your home in Southwest Florida? Here are a few suggestions to get it ready to list!

michaelbinderrealtor: 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)

michaelbinderrealtor: 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)

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.

michaelbinderrealtor: 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)
