Ormond Beach, FL Real Estate News

  Recently I recieved a builders brochure of a new community that was being built off of Hand Ave in Ormond Beach, Florida.  The brochure was beautiful, the words and format of the brochure did not match the calibre of ugly exteriors.  In todays Florida Market were new housing sales are at an all time low you would think that in these large builder organizations would have at least one person with a pair of eyes that could see what is beautiful and what is not.  As a residential designer I had the mind set that everything I produced should be good for at least 300 years.  I wanted everything I designed to be beautiful and if I saw a mistake or something that could be improved I would work double and triple time to make it happen. In big architectural firms that produce beauty like Mckim...

Well Friends the Big Weekend is almost here! Bikes and Blues with Mickey Jones on Saturday and The Mickey Jones Golf Classic on Sunday. Both will benefit St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in Memphis TN. Mickey arrived Tuesday evening and joined our committee for our final meeting at Cancun Lagoon. He told us that he liked how we've banded together for a commen cause, fighting childhood cancer. Last night I met Mickey at the Iron Horse Saloon where he sat with the regulars joking around, telling stories and playing horseshoes. I believe he and his partner won 2 out of 3 games. I think we both had a great time. Tomorrow our day is to begin at 9am Eastern with a radio interview that you all can listen to right here on the computer! Mickey will be on the air with DJ's Tracy Dillon and F...

Isn't it funny how things turn out sometimes? I've been posting about the events I am working on for St. Jude, but I haven't told you anything from behind the scenes. The funny thing about all this is I didn't realize how Real Estate oriented our events have become. One of our committee members, Marvin Miller owns and operates his own Real Estate office, Miller Real Estate And Associates. Now, just last week, Marvin came through with a sponsorship check for The Mickey Jones Celebrity Golf Classic from Bray & Gillespie, who in 2004 formed Ocean Waters Development LLC to specialize in special renovation projects and or condo/hotel development projects along the Daytona Beach coastline. Another Real Estate related company!                     Lets top this off with the fact that I've recru...

This isn't my listing, but it is a great price for this home. It is just six houses from the beach with a screened enclosed pool, spilt plan, kitchen and baths could use some updating, but they are in very usable condition. The price was just lowered to $279,000, this really is a great price for the location of this 3 bedroom, 2 bath, 2 car garage home. It is on a very nice street with a beach approach. If you are interested in this home please give me call 383-235-3385 or email me at djdcentury21@aol.com.

Keep Your Property In Good Shape: Stay ProfitableBy : James Klobasa   Submitted 2007-01-25 21:38:44 However, you do not require thousands of dollars for that. Only a little amount of cash will do. This little expenditure will eventually turn out to be a highly profitable investment, as it will attract your tenants, and you will be able to bargain a higher rent from them. Replacing The Old, Ugly Switch Plates One of the common mistakes that most real estate investing landlords and rehabbers do is that they paint the entire unit except for the old ugly switch plates. Ridiculously, sometimes, they even paint over them. Do not overlook such things, and get them replaced by new ones. It may cost you as little as about 40 cents each. Even if you have to replace the switch plates in the entire...

Commercial Property For Sale: Various MethodsBy : James Klobasa   Submitted 2007-01-18 13:57:28 The following information will help you understand what it takes to follow a certain method so that you can decide which one is the most effective method in your case. Appoint Only One Real Estate Agent You can appoint only one real estate investing agent on either sole or exclusive agreement. The greatest advantage of limiting yourself to only one agent is that your agent will be able to better focus on finding a potential buyer and selling the property at the best price. Moreover, you save yourself from the hassle of dealing with more than one agent. What is more, you need to spend less time and money for advertising and marketing of your commercial property in comparison to the time and mo...
