Cape Coral’s hot real estate market

Buyers, Cape Coral Real Estate, Fort Myers Real Estate, Opinion, SW Florida Real Estate
Everyone is talking about Cape Coral, Florida and Ft. Myers, Florida real estate. First time homeowners can finally afford to buy, northerners can easily afford that second home in Cape Coral. Investors can cash flow again in Lee County. Buyers, give us a call to see what I mean.  239-218-2229   - my personal cell phone! Last week I had customers from Germany enter into a contract on a beautifully appointed S. Ft. Myers condo near the beach at half of the pice of 2004/2005. Great condition from the seller (not a short sale). They'll soon be enjoying those grey winters from Germany in their new coach home in sunny SW Florida :) They are thrilled! I have an investor about to go under contract for a 3/2/2 CBS home…

Expecting to Buy a short Sale | What to Expect

Buyers, Cape Coral Real Estate, Cape Coral short sales, Fort Myers Real Estate, Fort Myers short sales, Opinion, SW Florida Real Estate

Short sales can take 30-60 days to receive an answer. We've heard horror stories of it taking 5-6 months in some cases as well. This could have been due to a number of factors that we cannot thoroughly cover here.   The next thing to consider: Choosing a Real Estate Agent   Have you found a real estate agent who has the knowledge…

Investing Money in Real Estate

Buyers, Cape Coral Real Estate, SW Florida Real Estate
I have received so many phone calls in the past 2 weeks from cash buyers. People who want to invest their money in real estate. They do not feel that their money is safe in their banks. Safe, maybe? But what about the value? Just like when those from foreign countries buy because of the exchange rate; the exchange rate from liquid cash to real, tangible real estate is excellent. Maybe your money is 'safe' at the bank. I mean it is insured up to $250,000 at each bank. But what happens when your bank closes its door or when there is a rush from everyone wanting their money? There may be a wait or there may not be any left. This blog is not intended to instill fear or panic. It…
