Real Estate buyers and investors have been wishing for lower interest rates and lower prices. Your wish has been granted.

Two of the top 10 areas ripe for investment are in Florida, according to Forbes magazine. In Orlando (No. 3) and Jacksonville (No. 8), editors say, buyers can find profitable deals as employment growth burns off an over-abundance of inventory. (1) - 2/08)

Inventories of available new and resale homes are at an all time high. Real estate buyers now have more to choose from and the lowest interest rates we've seen in many years. Add to that the fact that the Florida Legislature has taken steps to lower property taxes and insurance costs.

The commercial real etate market in Florida is showing positive signs as well.

At the same time, roughly half of the nation's metropolitan areas show home prices starting to rise in the fourth quarter of 2007, according to the quarterly survey by NAR (1).

There are a lot of good reasons to invest in Florida real estate now, whether it's residential or commercial properties. Add it up: inventories are high, prices that have been dropping have begun to rise again, interest rates are still low, and Florida has two of Forbes top 10 areas ripe for investment. If you don't happen to have a pile of cash lying around, don't worry. Credit is tighter than it once was, but if you have the will to make your move, we'll use our resources to find the way for you to get the right financing.
