We're business friendly

One thing we offer that the others don't are beautiful Winters, no income taxes, and friendly people!

Let's party like its 1999

The big question out there: Is it time to buy, or not time to buy?


Here are the three latest sources to weigh in on the subject:


Time to buy

Forbes magazine: based on estimated 2008 inventory, sales rates, etc. the authors notes that Orlando has had a 2.4% decline but it is expected to turn around fairly quickly.


Not time to buy

PMI Mortgage Insurance Co.: Orlando is one of 11 metro areas with a greater than 50 percent chance of price declines over 2008 and 2009.


Time to buy

Jerry Jackson at the Orlando Sentinel: Resales of existing homes and condos had it's worse month in September in more than 8 and a half years.


Predicting the lowest point is a lot like predicting the stock market.....Yet remember, any home purchase can be a good investment if it is considered a LONG TERM investment.......
