New Builder Coming to Venetian Bay

D. R. Horton is coming to Venetian Bay. They have bought the land previously owned by KB Homes. They are a great builder and their homes are very reasonably priced. They currently are selling 3 bedroom 2 bath homes in Port Orange in the $150,000 price range. They will be a welcome addition to our community. I have a good working relationship with D. R. Horton and look forward to helping my clients obtain the best deal on a new home purchase.

Time is running out for the First Time Home Buyer Credit

We only have 15 days left for the First Time Home Buyer Credit. There is still time to get a contract by the end of the month and close by the end of May, but time is definitely running out.

Most of the homes on the market right now are short sales and bank owned foreclosures, and there is no way to guaranty you will be able to meet the deadlines on these homes.

The best bet is with a new construction home, the problem with this is most builders stopped building spec homes when the market started going bad, so builder inventory is very small.

The other option is conventional sales, you remember those, that is where an individual places their home on the market and a buyer can negotiate a price without 3rd party approval from a bank.

Whichever route you chose, always have a Realtor on your side to represent your interest. Call me today to find the home of your dreams.

Buying Real Estate in your IRA

Did you know you could buy Real Estate with your IRA? Housing prices are low, and now is a great time to scoop up a great bargain that will return a regular monthly dividend, in the form of a rental check to your retirement portfolio.
If you don't have enough money in your IRA, you can buy a percentage of a property. For instance, if you and your spouse each have $100,000 in your IRA, you could each buy 50% of a $190,000 house and still have $10,000 to cover expenses.
Not only will the value of the property likely increase, you will also be increasing the value of your IRA with the monthly rental income. And if you are using a Roth IRA, it will be all tax free income when you retire.
Call me today to discuss this great opportunity to take advantage of the low housing prices.

Luna Bella Ristorante

Luna Bella Ristorante. Serving Italian & Mediterranean cuisine in an elegant yet comfortable atmosphere with a full service bar. The restaurant is family-owned and operated and is located in the south east corner of the Town Center. Indoor seating or "Al Fresco" Dining on the Lake Terrace. Reservations are accepted, but not necessary. Please call 423-LUNA (5862).
My wife and I dined there in December, we both had Pasta Alfredo, mine with shrimp and hers with chicken. The portion sizes were quit generous with several large shrimp and very tasty. The pasta prices were very reasonable, however the main entries were not. Prices for the main entries are in the mid twenty's and that does not even include a side let alone a salad. I fear there will not be enough return customers to keep this place in business for long.

Venetian Bay Auction Part 5, Great Success

The Venetian Bay Auction was a great success over the weekend. The Auction started with 8 pre-sales, and heavy bidding on the first unit on the block. The opening bid was $176,000 and quickly went up to the winning bid of $231,000 for a 2 bedroom 2 bath condo. Unfortunately for the seller this was the best sell he had for the day. The remainder of the sells favored the buyers. The next unit, a 3 bedroom 2 bath sold for $187,100. By the end of the auction, 6 more units were sold for a total of 16 including the 8 pre-sales, with the best buy of the day being the last unit sold. A 2660 sq ft 4 bedroom 3 1/2 bath condo, the Barcelona. This unit once listed for $553,900, the winning bid was just over half that price at $277,750.
Post Auction sales over the weekend added 4 more sales as the builder is honoring the last bid price on each group of units. You can still buy a 2 bedroom condo for $162,800; a 3 bedroom for $242,000; and a 4 bedroom for $277,750. The 2 bedroom 2 1/2 bath townhomes are now selling for $151,250.
