Downtown Orlando Mexican RestaurantDowntown Orlando has a new Mexican Restaurant in town Mucho Tequila Mexican Kitchen. The name will be a tongue twister after a few drinks at this place. Also dubs as a tequila bar. The new restaurant is having their grand opening Thursday November 19 2009 from 6-9 pm. This restaurant is brought to you by the owners of Stardust Lounge and will surely be the next hot spot in Thornton Park.

We are a group of investors who are looking for lenders that need assistance in table funding their loans.

We are a private mortgage investment company that deals with government-backed loans through Ginnie Mae.

We are mortgage purchasers / buyers. We are looking to establish relationships with mortgage lenders that want to sell their paper. The originating retail mortgage lender originates and creates the FHA insured note with the borrower, we show up at the settlement table and purchase the note from the originating retail mortgage lender, therefore the originating retail mortgage lender will not need a warehouse line.

We purchase the loan at the table for the lender. We are table funding mortgage buyers.

Want to know what’s selling in your neighbor? These statistics should give you a feel for the market value of your house.

Keep in mind that many of these sales are for Short Sales or Foreclosed/Bank-Owned properties. Under these situations, the Sold Price may be considerably below the Original List Price. Sorry to say, ‘distressed’ sales drag down the values of all the other homes in the neighborhood, whether or not they’re Short Sales or Foreclosures.

Properties have been listed and sold by various MLS members.

Data drawn from the My Florida Regional Multiple Listing Service.

If you’re a homeowner who wants to sell your house, the following should give you a better understanding of the Orlando FL marketplace.

Remember the old adage that ‘real estate is always local’. Your neighborhood may be different from the neighborhood just down the road.

Homes in Orlando are selling. In fact, they’re selling so well that thousands of homeowners just like you are moving out and moving on. Last year, 1,000 homes in Orange & Seminole counties sold every month on average. In 2009, monthly sales are averaging 1,600 homes. This represents a 60% increase! If the house down the street can sell in this difficult environment, so can yours.

What’s the long-term outlook for the Orlando FL real estate market? Prices have leveled off in recent months. Even so, due to rising unemployment and foreclosure/short sale saturation, it will probably take several years — perhaps as long as a decade or more — for home prices to completely recover.

What about homeowners who are having difficulty keeping up with mortgage payments but can’t sell because their house is worth less than the amount owed on their loan? There are several solutions, but the way a Realtor® can help is by selling the house as a Short Sale.
