Dunedin is located in the central part of Pinellas County. Dunedin is around 25 miles west of Tampa and 3 miles north of Clearwater. It's barrier islands are Clearwater Beach, Caladesi Island and Honeymoon Island. The population for the city is around 37,000 residents. Dunedin has close to four miles of picturesque waterfront, where buildings are not obscuring the view. The views are of St. Joseph's Sound and the Gulf of Mexico.

Dunedin has an American and Scottish heritage. It is one of the oldest towns south of Cedar Key. In its early history, Dunedin had one of the largest sailing fleet of sailing vessels in Florida due to a dock built by the early settlers. The early crops shipped from Dunedin was cotton and citrus. Today the city still boasts of a people friendly community with parks, beaches, bike trails, golf courses, marinas and other outdoor fun for everyone.

The Hideaway in Dunedin is a place worth visiting for live entertainment and a great time! We went out last Saturday night to listen to the band Blue Lightening and had a wonderful time!!!

If you are looking for a place to dance, meet with friends and have a general good time then you need to check out The Hideaway in Dunedin Florida!!!!

Taking good bathroom photos is challenging, even with a wide angle lens. Does this shower curtain close-up make you want to run out and see this Dunedin home that's currently on the Pinellas MLS? Do you suppose there's something lurking behind there? What?!

When you're house hunting online, what photos do you most like to see?

The most interesting response to these questions wins a Starbucks gift card and a possible feature on The Peach! Please send your response here.

The FHA is pulling in the reigns on it's lending practices again. If you're currently out shopping for a new Dunedin home and were planning to put just a little money down, there are 2 critical changes that became effective yesterday.

Increase in Down Payment for that Dunedin Home

• You now need a 3.5% down minimum instead of the current 3% requirement.
• As detailed in an earlier post about the passage of HR3221, the seller can't pay your down payment any longer, yet your Palm Harbor Real Estate professional can help you negotiate for seller-paid closing costs.

Mortgage Limits Decreasing

The maximum home purchase price effective January 1st will be $271,050, down from $292,500, as detailed in HUD's Mortgagee Letter 2008-36. Take heed of this if you're shopping in the $250K to $300K price range for that beautiful Crystal Beach Florida home. You don't want to find yourself out of the FHA loan package entirely.

A Recap of Your Options for a Pinellas Home Mortgage

Your T.V. set is incorrect - there ARE still plenty of loans available, and these are your options today:

FHA Financing - 3.5% down payment required

Conventional Financing - Requires minimum 10% down payment.

VA Loan - 100% loans still available

Private Financing - Private "hard money" is available at whopping interest rates for investors. Or there's always the bank of "Mom and Dad".
