sell house in port orange: Central Florida College Fun! AND-Buy or Sell House or Condo in Daytona Beach Area
- 09/20/10 11:02 PM
Yes, once again I've stolen a picture from my daughter's Facebook page. And this one really takes the cake. Her college (located in the Disney area, just over an hour from the Daytona Beach-Port Orange area) has Wi-Fi throughout the campus (supposedly so they can learn more). Apparently, the general consensus is that this particular class is on the boring side. So during lectures, the kids all get on Skype. Of course they can't use their microphones during class, but they can turn on their web cams, and type into the chat portions. Oh, and they can take still shots too. … (10 comments)

sell house in port orange: New at the Port Orange Pavilion - I Just Know I Can Figure This Out... (Adorable Photo Alert!)
- 04/14/10 05:47 PM
Yesterday, I decided to try to get some sunset photos at the new Port Orange Pavilion. Unfortunately, it was overcast so I didn't get any obvious sunset photos. But I did find a beautiful fountain. Then for some icing on the cake, a very nice "mom" let me borrow her adorable children who were very nterested in the fountain. First of all, this little boy was inspecting the fountain from every angle. He seemed certain he could eventually figure it out
The mom was taking pictures too. And she actually got brother and sister to hug (no way! lol) So … (10 comments)

sell house in port orange: The Hunt Club Community in Beautiful Port Orange. A Great Place to Buy A Home!
- 03/27/10 03:25 PM
A few days ago I posted information about the community of Countryside in Port Orange. This post is about the gated community called The Hunt Club. An important thing to know about Port Orange, is that most of the communities have Home Owner's Associations (HOA's), with governing codes and rules that actually supersede some of the city's codes and rules. When buying a house in a deed-restricted community with a strong HOA, it's important for buyers to do their own research about the Conditions, Covenants and Restrictions (CC&R's) of each particular community. If you work with a REALTOR® who uses the … (4 comments)
