Today there are fantastic buying opportunities in Fort Lauderdale. The housing inventory has started diminish, and the recovery has started. I have an optimistic prespective. I see it in our office, Interinvestments Realty. We are selling double than we did last year. There are more buyers in the marketplace.

If you need mortgage to purchase your property in Fort Lauderdale, then you first step is contact your local Florida bank. It is much easier to obtain a mortgage of a single family home verses a condo. If you are in the market for a condo, then your lender needs to check which are the developments that are approved for Fannie Mae or FHA financing.

You can start doing your research online. Search for properties on Fort Lauderdale now by visiting our website: http://www.interinvestments.com we have the all the communities in Fort Lauderdale!

Over the last few weeks I have had a conversation numerous times with people in the process of selling their homes, and looking to buy into the Fort Lauderdale Real Estate market. One is involved in a short sale of their property and the other a simple regular, good old fashion equity sale. Both are going to have problems getting a mortgage, and today for realtors who prequalify as we should, neither one is a client that we would consider "ready willing and able".

Both contacts have been looking diligently on my website www.FortLauderdaleGroup.com, and are have been realistic about what they can afford. The story for each of them is different but the end game is the same. The first story we all understand. A short sale will hurt your credit for a while. The second is a client who is selling their home, opening a new business in the place they always wanted to live, but currently even with plenty of assets they look unemployed, and a mortgage is going to be tough.

After seeing this story arise twice, I realized it maybe time again to really go after the seller with plenty of equity and discuss owner financing. With the right buyer, one who has simply experienced a rare situation after years of having excellent credit ratings, a deal can be a win for everyone.

Thinking its time to buy into the Fort Lauderdale Real Estate market? We agree and are here to help with all your Fort Lauderdale Real Estate needs.

COOL POOLS: 7 Quick Tips on Pool Efficiency

Conventional pools may not meet "green" standards but there are actions we can take to use our pools optimally to reduce energy and water consumption. Here are a few tips to reduce the carbon footprint of pools and save on energy bills:

1. If installing a pool for the first time, use natural materials such a stone, especially regionally quarried, to leave less of a carbon footprint than concrete or vinyl.

2. Install a pool cover - helps keep chemicals from polluting the atmosphere, maintains pool heat and saves on cleaning time. Using pool covers made of recyclable or organic material is a plus!

3. Maintain lower water temperature: During the months you heat your pool, consider using a lower temperature and if possible, reduce the number of months you heat the pool.

4. Maintain pool equipment to optimal working condition to increase efficiency and save wear and tear on equipment.

5. Replace pool filter with a water-saving pool filter to reduce the amount of water used for back-flushing.

6. Run pool equipment during off-peak hours to save money. Off-peak times are usually weekends and between 6pm and noon weekdays.

7. If you wish to make an even bigger change, convert your chlorine pool to salt water. Salt water pools save water, reduce chemical use and minimize electric costs. Even more exciting is that an article in e-how.com offers a "moderately easy" step-by-step article on changing a chlorine pool to salt water. To read how simply and cost-effectively the conversion can be made, read, "How to Change to a Saltwater Pool" at: http://www.ehow.com/how_2034707_convert-saltwater-pool.html#ixzz0sFqMLDo1

If anyone implements and of the above-listed suggestions, let me know how the process went for you!

Happy swimming!
