Well as I know most of the country has an unseasonably warm January I am sure more then 50% of the country has temperatures below 40 degrees. Some of you might even been shoveling some snow.

I however am sitting out on my balcony in Thornton park in Downtown Orlando Florida. It's some where in the 70s cool breeze, partly sunny and well just amazing. Today is one of those days were you could spend the entire day outside.  I am watching the people and their dogs walk around without a care in the world, while the cars slowly roll down the brick lined sidewalks. (I just took this picture w/the built in camera on my mac. One of the views from my balcony over looking Summerlin ave and Wildsides Restaurant) I love urban living.  I think once I get myself cleaned up I am going to walk downstairs and go to the local farmers market. Yup it's a great life here in Orlando, FL in mid January. 

So if you are stuck in the cold north and are looking to relocate to Central Florida or have thought about buying a vacation home near the Disney Attractions why not do it? Now has never been a better time to purchase a home or condo here in Orlando. Real Estate prices have dropped, we have a large inventory of homes to choose from and well like it's been said a hundred times, interest rates are still at an all time low.

5 Comments on Why I own Downtown Orlando Real Estate and live in Florida

Orlando is going to do well. Even if the rest of the state stumbles more Orlando won't. Yes it experienced some huge growth then a market correction but a city with that much to offer will bounce back ahead of the curve.

The first property I ever bought was near downtown Orlando.  I still own it, and I can't believe where the values are now.  Orlando has really taken off and once these new venues get built things will just get better.

I am one of those who is shoveling snow, but I don't mind doing it!  About April I do wish for some warmer weather though.  Thanks for your post in the Vacation and Second home group Heather...it is a great localism post!

I actually live in the Thornton Park neighborhood, near downton Orlando.  I love the the area -- I rent, not own.  I would like to own property one day but right now the market is just too volatile.
