Great real estate deals we sold in Central Florida - February 2012

Another month is behind us and we even got an extra day thanks to leap year.  The Orlando weather has been warmer than usual this Winter and buyers are back.  Inventory continues to fly off the shelves and interest rates are at record lows.  Below is a sampling of some of the great deals that we sold in February 2012.

                 Yellowood                                            Mainsail                                       Holbrook

1. Yellowood Ct, Altamonte Springs, FL 32714.  Big 3/2 townhouse in Oakland Village.  Bank owned foreclosure.  Had roof issues and bad smells.  But sold cheap enough.  $45,000 to a cash buyer. Cash is king!  

2. Lake Of The Woods Blvd, Casselberry, FL 32707.  2/2 condo in Ashwood condos near Fern Park. Spacious unit with lots of upgraded features. Walking distance to shopping.  Community pool and more.  Sold for $32,500 - are you kidding me - what a steal!

3. Mainsail Ct, Orlando, FL 32807.  3/2 pool home in Englewood Park in East Orlando.  Quick drive into downtown Orlando and the airport. That sparkling pool made somebody's Winter just a little bit warmer, didn't it?  Sold to a new FHA buyer for $118,000.

4. Holbrook Cir, Lake Mary, FL 32746. 3/2/2 block home in Lakewood at the Crossings.  Top Seminole County schools, convenient to everything, and right near our local high-tech jobs corridor. Updated and remodeled to the 10s.  Sold for $165,000.

5. Miranda Cir, Orlando, FL 32818.  3/2/2 in Hiawassee Meadows.  Short sale property that we successfully negotiated and got it done.  Seller's loss was an investor buyer's gain at just $47,000.

6. Fountain Rd, Deltona, FL 32738.  4/2/2 in Deltona Lakes.  Beautiful home in great condition.  Sold to a new FHA buyer for $75,000.

7. Stratemeyer Dr, Orlando, FL 32839.  4/2/2 pool home in Lake Jessamine Estates in beautiful Edgewood.  REO bank foreclosure property.  Sold to a new homeowner for $120,000.

Notice above that only 3 of the 7 were foreclosures or short sales.  Although Florida was ground zero for much of the foreclosure mess, most of those properties have sold and a smaller and smaller amount are still left available - meaning more traditional sellers and easier negotiating between buyer & seller.  We would love to help you buy or sell your next home in Central Florida.
