Sometimes one must wonder.... I guess here in Florida if it is green and flat it is golfable (not sure that is a word!

Community Park of Rockledge provides soccer, trails, bike paths, a skateboard park/course, a playground, pavillion and more.

But it does not provide golfing. Residents are encouraged to use the nearby Turtle Creek Golf Course or Viera East Golf Club!

Reliable automobile service is critical, especially in an economy where every dollar is more important than ever. When you relocate to a new area you may choose to take your car to the dealer. Or, if you are like me, you prefer to find a good local auto repair shop who treats you with respect, honesty and fairness.

In Rockledge, Florida I take my vehicles to Schlenker Automotive Repair Center at 396 Barton Blvd in downtown Rockledge.

I posted an article about six months ago about preventative maintenance. The article was targeted toward getting a house ready for marketing, specifically about putting maintenance cost in perspective.

Sometimes the cost of delayed maintenance can be much larger than the cost of routine maintenance.

Schlenker Auto Repair Center is only one half of Schlenker Enterprises. Across the street at 385 Barton Boulevard is the Car Star Collision Center where you can get those little hiccups fixed!

Almost every time I have visited I have dealt directly with Mr. Lou Schlenker himself. His estimates are right on target (and reasonable) and when he gives you a completion time you know it will be on time, if not early.

Having a high level of comfort when dealing with an auto repair facility will relive a lot stress when you need their services.

When I need auto service, although am not a happy real estate agent, I am glad I have Schlenker Automotive Repair Center.

The Ventura at Turtle Creek in Rockledge, Florida, with about 160 condos built so far, this gated community offers owners a great location next door to the Turtle Creek Golf Course in Rockledge, Florida.

These concrete construction, four story units (with two elevators per building) have become very attractive to buyers recently.

[If you own a condo in The Ventura at Turtle Creek and want to sell, contact me. I have a buyer!].

This gated condo community provides lots of amenities including lighted walking paths, 65 foot resort style pool, cabana club house, and location.

Only a half mile from Interstate 95 and about a mile from US 1, the location is ideal for commuters.

If you are looking for a Florida vacation getaway then being only 40 minutes (or less) to Orlando International Airport will make it easy to pull off that weekend trip to Florida!

And lets not forget the nearby shopping, golfing (Viera East Golf Course, Duran Golf Club), restaurants and more located in nearby Viera! With the new Viera Hospital being constructed in the heart of Viera, you will have access to some of the best medical care in Brevard County Florida.

And lets not forget the schools in the area - nothing but the very best that Brevard County School District offers! And of course you are only minutes away from the beaches and Port Canaveral (cruises)!

Pulte Homes still has about a half dozen or so buildings to be built although they have stopped construction until activity picks up. With plenty more construction to be done I feel pretty confident the builder will ensure that The Ventura at Turtle Creek remains one of the best condo communities in the Viera Florida area.

As for prices in the complex, there are only a few units on the market right now with a couple listed in the upper $140,000s. There were a couple of recent units sold in the $110-120,000 range. With buyers still showing interest in The Ventura at Turtle Creek if you are considering selling, call me.

Yesterday I wrote that I was going to be at the auto service shop early today. At 7:30 this morning I headed down to my mechanic's place, Schlenker's Auto Service, in Rockledge, Florida.

[Amazing how we take personal ownership of my (doctor,lawyer,mechanic, Realtor,) when we have developed a comfortable relationship over time.]

While sitting in the lounge area sipping my Dunkin' Donuts coffee I overheard a call to a customer. Apparently the customer's car needed a new transmission. A rebuilt transmission would be about $1300 dollars. Then I heard a follow up comment about another guy who had to pay several thousand for his transmission replacement yesterday.

A couple of thoughts entered my mind. First, not bad - only $1,300. Then, of course, could preventive maintenance have precluded this problem?

However, my $247.07 bill for preventive maintenance was much more palatable!

In life, many times it is all about putting your circumstances in their proper perspective. And then, many times, it is all about preventive maintenance. Let's see..dental exam, physical exam, exercise, non-smoking, immunizations, AC service, pest control, oil change, ....
