Back from Vacation and Ready to Roll!

Hi Everyone!

I'm sorry I haven't been writing much lately. I have been extremely busy growing the company as well as finding a little time to take a vacation. I had the pleasure of playing golf at Pebble Beach and a few of the other great courses in the area. The golf was incredible and you are a golfer I highly recommend spoiling yourself at least once in your life. I don't know that I would drop that much money again, but it was dream golf!

The Real Estate Market in that area (Carmel) was amazing. If you live in CA you know what I am talking about. Most of the homes on Pebble Beach were in the $30 million range. Yes you heard me right! The next time someone says that Brevard County Florida has gotten too expensive I'm going to send them the Real Estate Magazine I brought back.

So what should you do about buying a home in Florida? Right now is a great time as it has been for the past year. Interest rates are starting to go up with the problems that the lenders have had lately. If you are planning to buy, this might be a good time to get serious. I have heard that rates could go above 8% shortly.

As many of you know, I am getting ready to expand the company. We are in the process of getting our legal work done to franchise throughout the state of Florida. Our name will remain Tropical Realty of Suntree, but we will now be part of the eHomes Realty family. It was a tough decision to do this but in the end I think it will be a great benefit for both our company as well as our customers. We have many customers looking to relocate in other areas of Florida and we have not been able to help them as best as I wish we could. By opening the franchises, we will have access to help our customers anywhere in the state.

That's about it for now. I'll write more about the growth shortly once we are ready to get going. As always if there is anything we can do for you don't hesitate to call or email.

Have a great day!
