Purchase v Rent

8-2-12:  according to Zillow, <<In Miami, Fort Lauderdale and Tampa, a homebuyer needs to stay less than one year and eight months to make ownership the best financial option; in Orlando, he or she needs to stay less than one year and nine months.>>
This means that it is less expensive to Purchase than to rent, if you plan on staying for close to a couple of years.  With continued record-breaking interest rates, and property values back to 2002 rates, and the income-tax deductions that ultimately come from owning your own home, this news is not too surprising!  Please feel free to contact me for your real estate questions and needs.  Thank you.

vacant land doesn’t depreciate

Do you know that most of the wealth in America historically has been borne from those with the foresight to invest in Vacant Land?   And in the strictest sense, vacant land does not depreciate. Market values may lower it slightly and temporarily in value, but it has no inherent depreciating factor. I continue to tout one particular community in the Greater Orlando area to my favorite investors, as being the best place to invest your money.   If   95% off of original purchase price a mere few years ago, on a stunning lot in one of the premier, flagship communities of a major developer appeals to you, please contact me immediately.   A new owner is in the works for this phenomenal world-class amenities community. This community will come back.   A very small investment can reap you rewards, no doubt, in the future.   Please contact me immediately:   Dawn Deegan 407 488 8074 “Ownership, specifically ownership of land, was the basis of all the investment o...
