Posted by on May 26, 2011 | Comments
It’s so refreshing to open your favorite newspaper (or in many cases visit your favorite news website) and read positive reports about the Florida housing market. Recently, we’ve read about American confidence in the housing market, that it’s now time to buy again and buyers who are shopping for Tampa and Orlando new homes are in luck because these two locations made the list of the best cities for homebuyers.
Now, the St. Petersburg Times has more positive news: “Florida home sales surge in March,” showing that Florida’s housing market continues to distance itself from the negative effects of the recent market crash.

Lakeland Homes Reflect New American Home Style
Posted by on May 18, 2011 | Comments
As the economy begins to recover and more unemployed Americans are getting back to work, we’re starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel for the housing market. In fact, with low interest rates and affordable new homes available, many buyers are returning to the market; but their post-housing market crash home choices are slightly different than before. According to the Yahoo! Real Estate article, “Inside the New American Home,” buyers are no longer looking for all the bells and whistles when it comes to their new home selections, but rather affordability. Here at Highland Homes, our Lakeland new homes reflect the current demands of the housing market.
Utility and Value: New home shoppers are searching for a value, not extra frills. Instead of looking at a home as an investment to be sold in a year, buyers want real estate that they will live in for an extended period of time. At Highland Homes, we offer affordable homes priced from the low-$100,000s with only $99 out-of-pocket. With more than 30 floor plans to choose from, you’re sure to find the life-long home of your dreams. Plus, with a Highland Home, you can still afford the extras such as covered lanais, garden tubs and large, walk-in closets. Read More→

Are you shopping around for the location of your next new home? Consider this: Florida is home to sunny skies, warm weather, beautiful beaches and two of Fortune Finance’s 10 Best Cities for Home Buyers, Orlando and Tampa. Who could ask for more?

Everyone will tell you to not worry about bad decisions, because you learn from every mistake. I wouldn’t call buying a fixer upper that I fell in love with, instead of new Florida real estate, a mistake, just something that I should have never tried to tackle.
My husband and I bought our first house together a few months before we got married. After a month of looking we found what we thought was the PERFECT house. It was over 2,000 square feet, on a third of an acre, close to everything, had a HUGE kitchen, and was built in 1954 with plenty of character. There were a few things that needed to be done to make it what we wanted, but we knew it “wasn’t going to be that hard” to fix it. That statement would come back to bite us in places we didn’t want to be bitten. Read More→
