What is the Deal with Orlando Real Estate How Do I Find the Perfect Community
What is the Deal with Orlando Real Estate? How Do I Find the Perfect Community?

The truth is, a large percentage of Orlando residents originated elsewhere. We are an area of transplants. Of course, most come into town with the idea of tourism in mind.

How Orlando s Real Estate Market Has Significantly Improved Over 2009
Orlando's real estate market has really improved over the past 6 months as the numbers show in the middle of February 2010. Sales increased but it's still hard to see the positive for the excess inventory. The numbers are really eye opening when you compare inventory from the five metro counties that make up Orlando from 2009 to 2010. Last year's glut of inventory has been significantly reduced by increased short sales and bank foreclosures bought by investors and first time home buyers....

A Focus On Oviedo Real Estate
Oviedo may be home to plenty of modern-day conveniences like the Oviedo Marketplace Mall, the YMCA, plenty of restaurants, parks and boast a population of over 30,000 but Oviedos roots extend back to 1865, just after the Civil War. When the city finally incorporated in 1925, the population was around 800. While families back then may have spent their days growing citrus and celery and selling them in nearby Sanford and Orlando marketplaces, todays Oviedo residents take advantage of the...
A Focus On Longwood Real Estate
Longwood is known for its expansive tree-lined streets, the area looking just a bit more green than other parts of Central Florida. Youll even find some hills off of Markham Woods Road. Longwood has a traditional feel to it also, more like some of the communities found up north. Take the Crown Oaks Centre for example
Its an office complex but all the units look like red brick townhouses and the parking lot is completely shaded by oak trees. It creates a very aesthetic feel.

Medical City in Southeast Orlando
You may have heard that Medical City is coming to Southeast Orlando but have you realized the impact it brings to the area? With the influx of medical research and care facilities as well as a college of medicine, the population in that area will be expanding tremendously.

Maitland and Winter Park Real Estate
Maitland and Winter Park are two little cities just north of downtown Orlando located right next door to each other... While both are known for their upscale homes and estates, chain of lakes, and array of parks, they also have quite the small-town feel with a real sense of community among neighbors.
Winter Park is known for it's olde downtown area featuring winding brick streets canopied by old oak and camphor trees dripping in Spanish moss, an eclectic mix of shops and restaurants along...
A Focus On Lake Nona
Lake Nona is a residential community in Southeast Orlando. Most of the homes located in Lake Nona are of newer construction. Not too long ago, there wasn't much out in that direction other than Moss Park, the largest of Orange County's parks. Moss Park features camping, picnic pavilions, tons of shady areas, playgrounds, and a boat launch and swimming area into Lake Mary Jane. There was one subdivision out that way, Isle of Pines- a large community of custom homes on 1/3 acre wooded lots along...
