Real Estate Investing Made Easy
With countless short sales and foreclosures infiltrating the market, it’s a daunting task to search for real estate investments. Many variables come into play with real estate investing, however rate of return is always a factor.
Real estate investments are plentiful, but sifting through properties is a major under taking. Automation now makes it easy in many markets to receive automated updates on properties that match your criteria to purchase. When you receive MLS property alerts those properties were matched to your requirements which can include; location, size, price range and other preferences. Alerts can be set fo9r just foreclosures and short sales. If you investing in real estate, more than likely, you are in the position to wait out the tedious process of lender approvals.
An investment property bought in this quirky real estate market is way below market value in a stable real estate market. Holding on to investments in real estate for the next five to eight years could very easily bring in a decent
profit for real estate investors.

Only State in the Union with NO SNOW!! Hello Snowbirds!
While the temps may be dipping below the 40’s in the sunshine state, it’s official — there is NO SNOW in Florida. News reports show
the north east getting hammered again, predicting more than 2 feet of snow in various locations. The snow can be quite beautiful but treacherous at the same time. Icy conditions cause fatal problems for elderly folks, not to mention being trapped inside for prolonged periods of time. It’s why we yanked my mother-in-law out of Illinois years ago to become a Snowbird. Here in Florida, she gets plenty of sunshine, keeps active and remains in excellent health. At nearly 82 years old, she can walk 3 miles, with just a little sit down at the half way point.
The 64 thousand dollar question is, how many seniors will take advantage of the phenomenally low real estate prices to grab a winter retreat in Florida. The sunshine state is chock full of distressed

Here’s just one I found, 3 bedrooms, 2 baths and just over 1200 sq. feet for $50k — and that’s the asking price! There were more than 50 others also available for sale with the same criteria in various locations throughout the county.
Florida caters to Snowbirds with all kinds of businesses and services designed to assist while your here and when you go back to your primary home. Like Property Watch, who offer peace of mind to their clients in Brevard County, FL by providing a personal approach to the monitoring of their home while they are away.
