You can have access to the Gulf of Mexico from your own backyard!Cape Coral Florida, with more canals than Venice Italy, offers boaters unlimited boating opportunities with unsurpassed convenience. Nestled between the barrier Islands of S.W. Florida, and by the Caloosahatchee river, Cape Coral is surrounded on 3 sides by water, and located near Sanibel, Captiva and Boca Grande Islands.Should your boating adventure take you exploring the white sand and shell filled beaches of the local islands, out into the Gulf of Mexico, or up the river to Lake Okeechobee and across to the East Coast, the boating adventures are endless. And the best part is they can all start from your own backyard!Cape Coral, Florida....a true waterfront wonderland!

   The Real Estate market report In Cape Coral from Jan 1 st 2008 to March 14th 2008 is again showing signs of recovery.                                       A full  Cape Coral recovery would mean that about the same numbers of new listings are off set by sold properties and non, we are not there yet by a long shot, However if you look at each section of properties sold you will see clear increases. This is very encouraging. the next few months will show if this promising trend is just a seasonal thing or if it carries on in the Spring of 2008.From 1/14/08 to 2/14/08 we had 77 lots and acreage sold compare to 162 for the period of 2/14/08 to 3/14/08, which is more then double the sold properties. Numbers do not lie.Total dollar value jumped from $2,759,106 to a more impressive $5,512,5...

Cape Coral Real Estate - 2 for the price of 1? Sort of.We've been getting many calls the past couple of weeks asking us about the 2 for 1 houses available in Cape Coral, Florida. Where are they? Do they exist? Well, yes & no.If you are talking about the prices of homes for sale right now - compared to 2005, then YES, there are a lot of them that are 1/2 price. But if you are referring to homes priced correctly in today's market, then no, 1/2 price houses do NOT exist.Here's an example. We have a 1700 s.f. home listed in NW Cape Coral at the present time. It was built in 2006 but was NEVER lived in. The seller paid just over $250,000 for the home in 2006. Today, we have it listed at $124,000. So, there you have it, half price homes.Another example, we have a 2300 s.f. gulf access pool ho...

Cape Coral Real Estate Property Tax Rates have decreased steadily over the past ten years. Presently the City of Cape Coral has a total real estate property tax, which includes county, school, and other miscellaneous taxes, that as of today March 24, 2008 average 17.34 per $1,000 of assessed value according to information availabe from the Lee County Property Appraiser. The specific City of Cape Coral portion for the 2007 tax year was 4.9236 per $1,000 of assessed value.  This includes general revenue, debt service, and solid waste taxes. Property tax rates have decreased a total of 48% from 7.3129 in 1998 to 4.9326 per $1,000 of assessed value in 2007.  This is partly to do with the increase in property values over the last ten years also.  Annually local governments calculate what is ...

At the Gated community of Coral Lakes (Cape Coral, Florida) more than 100 people lined up seeking rock-bottom prices advertised in the local Lee County paper. Time to buy?

This is a wonderful a investment. By Friday after noon many were under contract.How is this buying opportunity possible? Real-estate investor O.J.

              Curious about the median values of home sales, I did some data mining on our home sales in Cape Coral. I used March as the month to compare. Starting in 2002 I measured how many SINGLE FAMILY homes sold, the median price, the days on market & the average LP/SP. Since I'm not a chart expert, here's the data:

That's right readers you read my blog title correctly... Cape Coral homes are selling.  As opposed to what the national and local media outlets want you to read to sell news.  Homes, condominiums, vacant land and other real property is selling in Cape Coral and surrounding areas throughout Southwest Florida.Yesterday while I was out showing five properties to my buyers we had two occurrences when we had other agents and customers arrive at the same property.  At the one property one other agent showed up and at a second property we had three other agents show up with their customers.While making my showing appointments the day before one of the listing agents had advised me that she had 18 agents call that day to show the property and to be courteous to any other agents and customers we...

Yes, you heard me right..........the market is picking up.  I have been incredibly busy and so have other full-time Realtors. Today the News-Press reports 'Lee County pending home sales up dramatically in February'.  I can't wait to see March figures.  Check out: http://www.news-press.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080308/RE/803080409/1003/ACCMultiple offers are flying everywhere.  Out of the last 13 offers I've submitted; 12 have been in a multiple offer situation.  To think, multiple offers were almost instinct six months ago.  What's moving?  The lowest priced properties are getting the attention.  Whether it is gulf access homes, off-water homes, freshwater lots, or gulf access lots....the properties priced toward the bottom of each category are getting noticed.  Buyers are seeing...
