A few weeks ago I wrote a simple blog and in it I shared that it was the right time to spend money on a home of your own here in Jacksonville, Florida.  Now, I would like to share greater news with you. The Jacksonville Port Authority (JPA) reached an agreement with a South Korean shipping line to build a $360 million terminal here.  JPA officials and Mayor John Peyton signed the deal with Hanjin Shipping Co. Ltd. in South Korea. Hanjin Shipping Co. Ltd. is the second major Asian shipping line to choose Jacksonville for a new terminal.

The terminal will be the fifth at Jaxport and no one will be surprised to see others follow these leaders in the coming years. The terminal should begin operations in 2011 creating thousands of jobs in Northeast Florida and a strong economic impact.

If you have been waiting for the right time to buy a home, the time is now.  Right now interest rates are still at historic lows with plenty of state down payment assistance programs, conventional financing and FHA-insured mortgages available for you to make it happen. The more you learn about Jacksonville real estate opportunities the more you will realize you should not postpone for much longer.

This will give the area a good bump.  Just too bad most of the cargo will be arriving and not departing.

I know what you mean however, I don't think their boats are going back empty and yes it will boost our budget by 1 Billion the first full year and bring 10,000 new jobs.
