I thought I would spend this morning doing a little market research on the areas. A lot of first time home buyers are gravitating towards the downtown area, not only for it's nightlife, but for it's green factor as well. Leave your car behind, dust off that bike or get a moped. Today's Urbanites are walking and biking to work. You can get from Thornton park area to the Church Street downtown area in as little as 15 mins by foot and 5 mins on a bike, no gas needed. Once the movie theater is finally up and running their will be no reason to leave the downtown area. Publix opens this Labor day and you cant even imagine how this will change the area.
The top zip codes I am asked to search are: 32806, 32804, 32803, 32801, 32789 
(Downtown Orlando, Thornton Park, Colonial Town, Delaney Park, Winter Park, Edgewater, College park)
Here are my market findings for the time period June 17th -July 16th
In the under $250,000 price point 40 properties were sold, The month prior also saw 40 sales
In the $250,000-$300,000 price point 19 properties were sold, The month prior saw 16 sales
Want to see what sold for yourself? Then take a look at the above recent sales
More and more people are migrating towards the downtown area. With the area's elementary, middle and high schools receiving A grades.

"Always work with a Realtor when selling a home. Would you hire a Realtor who has never sold a house before, knows nothing about real estate law, contract negotiation, or sales? Of course not – but that describes you. Don’t hire yourself – hire a real estate sales professional." ~ Ric Edelman
