I was just commenting on a real estate blog post here on Active Rain, with the TV turned down pretty low. I tend to blog this way quite freqently. I don't really like to just sit and watch TV. Actually, I think I'm incapable of doing just one thing at a time. Anyway, I wasn't really paying attention to the TV until I heard a commercial that had just one statement that got my attention. It was about the real estate foreclosure market in Florida.

With the presidential election coming up in just a few weeks, there have been a lot of political commercials on TV, and this was one of them. So I'm far from being completely convinced as to the validity of this statement. (It was, of course, just more mud slinging in the rest of the commercial.) But the statement was that the state of Florida is experiencing more than 1400 home foreclosures per day. WHAT!?! Per day!?! Wow!

So I'd like to know if anyone can verify the statement that I just heard... "The state of Florida is experiencing more than 1400 home foreclosures per day." Can anyone verify these numbers?

That being said, I'll have 4 VERY affordable condos coming on the market soon. These will be short sales, but they were financed through a private lender who has agreed to the prices and the commissions. We have the lender's assurance that there will be no delays on getting the contracts signed, and the commission will not be reduced. 3 of these units are in the same building where I had many units listed for sale over the last year. A few of them sold, but 3 of them are now being foreclosed on by a private lender. The 4th unit is financed by this same lender, but is in a different condominium, located directly on the river. Stay tuned for more information. Just be a little bit patient. I've been working with these clients for over a year. While they're quick to get things sold, they're a bit slow in getting signatures on all the initial paperwork.

I'll keep you posted. In the interim, view the condos for sale in the condo-conversion project, from when I initially listed the entire building. Just follow the link above. They're all beautifully remodeled.

Just last week a posted a blog about the Daytona Beach condo-conversion project I have listed, with 42 units for sale or rent in this completely remodeled building. In that post titled Buy or Lease a Daytona Beach Condo, I said we only had 5 units left, and they were all 1 bedrooms. However, due to an eviction, we now have ONE, 2 bedroom unit available! That apartment is now cleaned up and ready to be re-rented.

If you're interested in a 2 bedroom apartment for rent, in the heart of Daytona Beach, just blocks from the ocean, call or e-mail me today! I'm scheduling appointments for tomorrow afternoon so don't hesitate!

• Move into this 2 bedroom unit within just a couple of days, for only a $500 deposit, $40 for background and credit check, and rent is $750 per month. Small pets are allowed with $100 pet fee. Water is included in your rent, and their is a laundry room on the premises. Sign a one-year lease and the last month is FREE!
  

As I said, these apartments are completely remodeled, with beautiful tile throughout every unit, plus brand new kitchen cabinets and appliances, granite counters, new bathroom sink, toilet, cabinets, and fixtures; and the exterior of the building has tall foxtail palm trees and other tropical foliage.

As most of you know, for quite some time I've been blogging about the condo conversion project I have listed, Surfside Villas in Daytona Beach. I originally listed these beautifully remodeled condos "For Sale", but with the real estate market moving at the speed of sludge, the seller decided to lease the units while waiting for them to sell.

We now have only 5 of the 42 units left unoccupied. The remaining unoccupied units are all 1 bedroom units. Unfortunately, all of the 2 bedroom units have been leased for quite some time. But the 1 bedroom units are absolutely beautiful as well. And we have ALL sizes of units available For Sale!

Every unit in this entire building has new 16 inch tile throughout, and sliding glass doors that step out onto private balconies or patios. Every kitchen has brand new maple cabinets, granite counters, double sinks with restaurant-style faucets, new Frigidaire appliances: including microwave and dishwasher. Each bathroom has an oriental flair with new cabinets, sinks, faucets, toilets, tubs and showers; not to mention that the showers have tiled walls and decorative tile insets.

Finally, this lovely building has a private elevator, laundry room on premises, tropical landscaping, and a great building manager who is willing to help at a moment's notice.

If you're looking for a great real estate investment, Surfside Villas may be exactly what you're looking for. Prices range from $135,000 to $155,000. Call today for your private viewing. I'd love to help you with your real estate investments.

Yes, you read my title correctly; I had a busy week last week, in Daytona Beach real estate.

As I’ve been stating since this year started, my business has picked up tremendously. Many of you have attributed it to my attitude and decision to have a personal slogan for this year: “Real Estate is Great in 2008!”. (I really should just add a new page to my web site, just for my annual slogan.) Whatever the reason, I’m having a great year. But it’s not exactly what I expected... sometimes God works in mysterious ways.

I’ve mentioned in several of my other real estate blog posts that I have a condo-conversion project listed in which the seller decided to start renting the units, since the sales were so slow. Well, in the last 3 ½ months, we’ve rented 24 of the 42 units.

Ironically, when I listed the project, I had a feeling God was going to open some different doors. Well, considering I’ve never done any rentals before, I’d say this is definitely a different door! And although the money may not be as much as real estate sales, I'm staying active in the industry, and I'm getting paid! No 2nd job will be necessary for me! (I have other listings and full real estate closings as well.)

And to clarify, I’m not doing any property management. The seller has a building superintendent that doubles as the building manager. I just show the units, explain the terms, collect the initial application fee, deposit and first month's rent, then give the tenant his or her keys. I also update the building chart, as to which units are still available. So far, the project has been fairly enjoyable. Very early in the process, I learned the best ways to keep things running smoothly.

As for advertising...

• I first took as many great photos as I could.
• I then created slide-show videos of the models and posted them to my personal real estate channel on www.WellcomeMat.com.
  
• Then I embedded the video widgets on my personal real estate web site, where I created a page specifically for the condo sales and rentals in this project.
  
• And of course, I placed several of the units in the Daytona Beach Area Association of REALTOR's® Multiple Listing Service (MLS), which includes all the great photos and a thorough description of the property, the location, the area, and the special events that are close by.
• The seller paid for a large banner that hangs off the 3rd floor railing, indicating the great leasing incentives, and it has my cell phone number on it. Plus my 2 company signs with my name riders, and the temporary signs that I set out when I'm in the office there.

But I believe that more doors are going to open for me, from this project. The full extent of what God is doing, is yet to be seen. But I know that for me anyway, Real Estate is Great in 2008!
