Some people always need to learn it the hard way …and one of our sellers recently did so too. This blog is about permits, cutting corners and (not) saving money. Although, you can save a lot of money when you are handy and know how to swing a hammer, when it comes to “major home modifications” you need to think twice what you are doing.   If you don’t ever want to sell your home, or if you are sure that you will never have an insurance claim, you may get along with your “none permitted” roof replacement (unless a “nice” neighbor turns you in – what exactly happened to one of our sellers). Be aware that most cities and counties require that homeowners obtain a permit before carrying out major modifications, and they are enforcing the permit laws vigilantly. Ignorance of the law is no pro... 04/05/2011

Ample windows of opportunities can be found in the Venice real estate market for Florida properties basking in natural splendor and luxurious amenities. Such choices will invariably include the Venice Golf and Country Club which has proven that real estate properties can indeed be developed in perfect synchrony with Mother Nature. Such a distinction has been affirmed by the certification that this 460-acre Venice Golf and Country Club real estate development has received as an Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary. This recognition pays tribute to the creation of a wildlife habitat that resulted from the country club's development of its golf links. All told, there are thirteen natural preserves and twenty-six lakes within the golf complex. Totaling fifty-six acres, this expansive ode to Mother... 03/20/2011

The Sarasota County real estate market in Florida presents many acquisition options especially with the high inventory of properties extending to the area's prime communities such as the Venetian Golf and River Club. Situated in North Venice, the Venetian Golf and River Club real estate development counts as one of the outstanding properties of WCI Communities, a developer with a string of fine golf resort complexes across Florida and northeast US. Only less than two miles from Interstate 75, the Venice Golf and River Club was meticulously developed in a 1,000-acre site near the unspoiled beauty of the Myakka River. This environment provided the excellent setting for a residential community nestled with a golf course and an expansive, 600-acre natural preserve. These conservation areas... 03/07/2011

Venice/Englewood Area Real Estate Market Review 2010 The real estate market is cyclical and will once again thrive - but when? In 2010, more than supply and demand influenced the market. Each time the market received a bit of good news, something happened. Tax credits ended, banks pulled back on lending and foreclosures stopped closing. Signs continue to point to a stabilizing and slowly improving economy. The market remains solid if not stellar and most economists predict a positive trend in 2011.*  Billionaire Warren Buffett wrote March 2010 in his annual letter to the shareholders of his Berkshire Hathaway predicted increased demand for real estate in 2011. "Prices will remain far below ‘bubble' levels, of course, but for every seller or lender hurt by this there will be a buyer who ... 03/04/2011

The conditions in the Sarasota County real estate market in Florida favor property searches in mixed-use developments with a close affinity to the preservation of the natural environment. It is in communities like Venice and Golf and Country Club where some of these amazing acquisition opportunities can be found.

If we have heard the question once, we have heard it a hundred times..."Do you think the seller will take ____ if I offer it?" We understand that buyers are looking to get the best bang for their buck. We also understand that some seller are more motivated to get their home or condo sold than others. One of the ways that we can tell this is by looking to see if the seller has dropped the price any since the property was listed. That being said, every Saturday - Sarasota Choice Homes selects a city out of the Sarasota Florida Gulf Coast area and prepares a list of properties on the market, including homes and condos, that have had the great price drop, by a percentage, since it was listed on the market. The list includes photos of the properties along with details and a map of the proper... 02/19/2011
