We alway's recycle when ever possible. I find my self driving out of my way to recycle anything I possibly can here in Melbourne, Florida.

  • Recycling Saves Natural Resources - By making products from recycled materials instead of new materials, we conserve land and reduce the need to drill for oil and dig for minerals.

  • Recycling Saves Energy - It usually takes less energy to make recycled products; recycled aluminum, for example, takes 95% less energy.

  • Recycling Saves Clean Air and Water - In most cases, making products from recycled materials creates less air pollution and water pollution than making products from virgin materials.

  • Recycling Saves Landfill Space - When the materials that you recycle go into new products, they don't go into landfills or incinerators, so landfill space is conserved.

  • Recycling Saves Money and Creates Jobs - The recycling process creates far more jobs than landfills or incinerators, and recycling can frequently be the least expensive waste management method for cities and towns.

Skip Trowel textured ceilings are getting popular in Brevard County, Florida

Paul Peck: Builder-Contractor in Melbourne, FL

I've been doing skip trowel for about 15 years here in Beautiful Brevard County,Fl. It's very similar to a light stucco finish. It's done by hand and I use a 12" knife and a hauk.
That's how we do it here in the Melbourne,Fl area. But, The name "skip trowel" is a regional thing. It can be a totally different texture depending on where you are located around the United States.

Here's a picture of my Skip Trowel.

After applying the skip trowel texture, it is necessary to prime and paint the ceilings after they have been skip troweled.

To Buy or Not To Buy?

Steve Vitani- Viera Fl Rockledge Suntree Brevard County MLS Search Viera: Real Estate Agent in Viera, FL

So is this really the year to make that move up or purchase for the 1st time? I know, we have heard this each of the last 3 years as the market has continued to slide. After all a broken clock is right twice daily, so maybe the clock will be right after this :-)

There are always two sides to this kind of subject. I can only hope that to those out there do not put off their purchase because they think rates will stay low or they think home prices will keep falling. Now is the time to take advantage of a home in the area you want to live in, on the street you want the home site you want. Real Estate is a long term investment and to be able to buy a home at price levels not seen in years, in some areas prices are 50-60% below the peak price. Couple that with super low rates plus tax credits makes this the chance we may not see for a very very long time.

If we dig deeper than just emotions we can find some strong facts that would support a very favorable time for those looking to buy a home. The slow down of home building due to all the short sales and foreclosures have forced home builders to become much more lean in order to compete with the short sales and bank owned properties. New Home Builders are able to make some really good deals right now, this can be a great time to get a home with Lot's of upgrades and the energy efficiency that many other homes do not have.

In parts of Florida some areas the home builders our at prices below where they were before the boom started in 2002-2003. There are home builders that offer homes starting at $99,000 complete with homesite. These are fantastic deals for FIRST TIME BUYER that can have a payment for under $800.

For the higher price homes there are also some really good deals, there are many homes that were over $1 million now selling for close to $500,000 due to the overwhelming supply we had caused from the easy lending back up to 2006. Once again the home builders have been virtually shut down for the last 3 years and since the supply has come down along with prices. The home builders are offering huge discounts in this price category and even in some cases you can build a new home for less than what a resale would go for. This type of situation is what it will take to re balance the markets again. in 2001-2004 you were able to build new for less, thus the influx of new home buyers building and then flipping at higher prices.

If your clients might be in the market for a new home In Central Florida, please send a message and I will send you some information and help in anyway possible. LET'S SELL HOMES!!!
