Lake Minneola in Odessa Florida is a place to enjoy everything there is about lakfront living. Boating, jet skis, canoeing, water sports, or just relaxing in a couple of chairs with fishing poles, this area has it all. Buyers, sellers, and long time residents consider it golden. Enjoy the privacy of country living, and the closeness of the popular growing new Trinity Area. The Suncoast Parkway is only a short drive away to take you anywhere.
The Palm Harbor Florida Real Estate Networking Group had their monthly meeting tonight at Fairway Pizza on Alt. 19 in Palm Harbor. The guest speaker tonight was Dean Davy appraiser, who gave a lot of infomation on real estate appraisals and FHA loans. More than seven listings were pitched, and others brought their buyer needs to the discussion. And the food at Fairway Pizza Palm Harbor is always great. Tri County Mortgage and Star Title of Palm Harbor Florida sponsered the Networking Group.
My new recent listing at 11427 Orleans Ln., Port Richey Florida was my pitch. See details here at http://www.mlsfinder.com/fl_psar/donmoore/index.cfm?action=listing_detail&property_id=7415893&searchkey=1a750a2d-c91c-8726-01b2-9f4d3b36a2e3&npp=10&sr=1

Don't we all have a choice?
When it come to tomorrow, do we look ahead with vision and set goals and plan for our dreams? Or is our focus behind us on our memories.
Max Lucado made a point that when your memories become larger than your dreams, your life is over.
My dreams are my tomorrow.
Have a GREAT tomorrow!
Wow!, Two million people added to the State of Florida in two years!
That is a lot! And that is fast!
I was just reading an article by Florida Association of Realtors that said "Florida's total population was 18.3 million in 2008, and, according to the Census Bureau estimates, will reach 19.3 million by July 2010"
Just last month Florida Trend magazine wrote that Florida will soon be the third largest state in the nation when it reaches 20 million residents.
So are we ready?
Well, we have been saying for years that "there is no land left in Pinellas County to build on", and to an extent that is true. Just a few years back we had seen many older properties and structures torn down to make room for newer ones. Renewal is not a bad thing. Our greatest cities have all gone through renewal. Pinellas County has a protected share of natural green spaces and protects its residents and their quality of life.
Where then are the additional residents going to live?
We will see more expansion of the major cities. The suburbs will see growth. Planned developments will come to fruition. New developments will evolve, and we will get better as we go through each cycle of growth. Cities like Dunedin, Palm Harbor and Tarpon Springs will stretch beyond their current maturity. Pinellas County will look to the government and civic leaders, builders, developers, conservationists, Realtors, and a host of professionals to keep the right balance.
And Florida, and its people and its businesses and its economy and its beauty will see growth.
Where is there a better place to live? When was there a better time to buy property in Florida?
