I received this frantic call from a lady in Ohio. Her two daughters found a furnished condo for rent on Craig's list, signed the rental agreement for 3 months, sent the money, drove to Daytona Beach and found out that somebody lives in this condo, and that owner had no clue about any ads on Craig's list. They were scammed.Mom called police, and then called every number she could think of, and finally the Chamber of Commerce gave her my name and number. I have no idea how I ended up being on Chamber's list, but it does not matter. She called me and asked if I could help her girls.I did not have anything for rent at this moment, which was furnished and ready right away, as they literally were in the street. I called a condo-hotel and checked with them, but the unit I was thinking of was r... 06/04/2017

We were remodeling a 2-bedroom/2 bath condo on the ground floor of a 2-story condo building.The guy above is a renter. He takes his two large dogs for a walk, stops to chat. He said the only problem selling this condo would be … crime. He said there was a young kid on a Mercedes, who comes there every Saturday, and is selling drugs there in the open, and people come and line up to buy that stuff.He said he called the Police, but they were scared of coming there.Next Saturday I was there. Sitting inside by the window, no lights, watching… No black Mercedes, no kid, nobody. I came back on Sunday, sat by the window, watching.Nobody, nothing…On Monday he was walking his dogs and I asked him about Saturday, and he told me that he said something to the guys, selling drugs, and they pulled a g... 04/26/2017

And display of pumpkins and squashes of all shapes and forms is simply fascinating.These photos were take couple of days ago in Perrine’s Produce on US -1 in South Daytona.

Pricing To Sell | How much would you pay for your own home?A good question to ask when pricing your home for the market. "Would  you pay this price for your own home?" Determining Your Home's ValueI was at a listing appointment recently. The sellers proudly gave me a complete tour of their home while they enthusiastically pointed out each and every change, modification and home improvement project they had done to the home since they purchased it  many years ago. The seller had precisely  calculated and itemized every item on the list. They proceeded to tell me they had also done their homework and research about the local real estate market.All comparable Homes that had sold in the neighborhood etc.  According to their calculations, their home was worth much more than the competition.O... 05/22/2016

Investors did not close, and sales were very sluggish.Then they hired the same company, which was hired to sell Marina Grande on the Halifax, and for some strange reason they successfully sold Halifax Landing, but did not have any luck with Marina Grande.Halifax Villas are on the west side of Intracoastal.

The email, which hit my computer, stated that I provided incorrect information on my website. The author claimed that in my description of one of South Daytona condos I had minimum rental period of 1 month, however, when she called the City of South Daytona, they told her that minimum rental period in the city was 6 months.Can it be that Declaration of Condominium has 1 months, and the City – 6 months? Theoretically yes. City Code of Ordinances trumps the Declaration of Condominium and if this is the case, then I might be wrong.So, I am calling the City of South Daytona. I am transferred a couple of times, and finally “the right person” tells me that yes, it is 6 months. He immediately started explaining to me that it is unfair to neighbors when someone rents on weekly basis…  If there ... 08/27/2015

Being in vacation and event spot means that you get mighty competition. I remember my lazy photos of Shuttle launch made from Ponce Inlet, and before I got down to my condo from the garage, which was couple of minutes, and wrote a short blog, I was stunned to see a blog post already published by Gary Woltal, and boy, what a phenomenal photo of this Shuttle did he have there. I have never been that close to the Shuttle in my life. It felt like he was with the crew there, so freaking close, that you sort of could see it not only this up close, but feel the thunder… He beat me big time… Yesterday I saw a photo of the beach, and right away I knew it was MY beach. Read the post, and yep, Mike Cooper descended on the Beach in Daytona Beach Shores, where I live. Imagine what he would do having... 05/14/2012

Markets have stabilized slowly over the last few months. While there have been many first time home buyers taking advantage of the $8000 tax credit, there are a significant number of investors buying up property. As these homes are bought, renovated, and rented, the values of these homes are likely to increase due to the work and money invested in them. This will add to the taxable, which in turn should increase The amount of money collected by state, federal and local governments in property taxes. While this is not a complete answer, it is one area that can help offset the massive government spending currently taking place. When real estate investors enter the market, it is usually a sign that prices may have reached the bottom. Most investors will not purchase a home where the rents ... 10/22/2009
