Greening your Florida GardenWhile some people move to Florida dreaming of the sea and sand, I do hear the occasional sigh from relocating gardeners who aren't sure what to plant in our lovely climate. In fact, Florida's nursery and landscape business is second only to California, so you'll find plenty of fellow planters here who love to talk shrubs. Florida's Proposed Super-exemption is Only a StartTax reform is one of the hottest topics in Florida real estate these days. In the past month, we’ve heard a lot of politicians applauding themselves for the passage of important new tax reform bills. They deserve the applause – but only if they continue on the path they’ve begun. This is not the time for them to rest on their laurels. It is important for all of us to remember that the lawmakers have only partially addressed the inequities in the tax situation. Protect your Home From Florida’s Storms and HurricanesThere are some very good reasons for investing in storm and hurricane protection for your home, not the least of which is saving your life in the worst storms. Here’s a quick rundown of storm protection and other safety items that may reduce the premiums on your homeowners insurance. Yard and Garden: Home ShowsAlright, let's face facts. Homes get sold on first impressions. Well maybe not sold, but the first impression goes a long way to making up the minds of buyers. So what is the average buyer's first impression formed on?

In past years we have seen the emergence of Tampa as one of these elite locations. Luxury home markets can be a finicky thing to deal with as people are expecting the utmost in services and amenities as well as unparalleled views and scenery. A Beautiful Home is the Best Incentive to BuyWhen real estate sales are slow, people start talking about buyer incentives – a little something extra to get people to buy your house. In the current market, with prices flat and sales slow, buyer incentives are getting a lot of play in the local real estate news. We’ve seen stories about sellers who are willing to throw in a big screen television, luxury cruises – even a brand new car.

Some think that this new bill looks great and indeed for some it will be quite nice, however, some sectors believe that the bill is not broad enough to solve some of the past inequalities in the home tax system. Trading Up in TampaTampa Bay is an area that is full to the brim with amazing homes and with new homes being built all the time there is pretty much an endless selection to choose from. However, this may be a moot point as the newly proposed property tax laws may severely affect the average home owner's ability to purchase a new home in the Tampa area. Florida School Grades Confusing Issue for New ResidentsHere in Florida, the state’s A+ school reporting plan is supposed to give parents an easy way to compare schools with one another at a glance, but many question whether the system really reflects the situation accurately. When the Florida Department of Education released the school grades for 2007 a couple of weeks ago, there seemed to be more confusion and controversy than information in the published reports. Florida Real Estate, Why Do you Buy? the Question That Realtors Should be AskingIt’s a buyers’ market in Florida housing. That’s a fact that no one denies. Sales are slow. Prices are stagnant. The projections, if you believe them are gloomy. The question, of course, is “Gloomy for whom?” The fact is that when you step back from the housing sales figures and take a look at the big picture, what you see is far different.
