When questioning the worth of your Orlando home you may be surprised by the answer. Orlando areas home values can vary greatly from Apopka to Winter Springs  When pricing your home you must realize that prospective buyers often may place a different value on certain aspects of what is of "value" than you do.

Internet Home Valuation Sites Can Miscalculate Values

Internet Home Valuation sites can add to the confusion for Orlando homeowners. They often value at a higher level because they don't understand the nuances of your Orlando Community. In actuality, Real Estate is very local in nature and you need a local expert to understand the differences in values and what is happening in your market. Orlando Realtors watch and understand the markets within the areas they serve.  Sometimes you can find a considerable difference in home prices within just a few miles, and a local Realtor will know exactly what is the reasons for this difference.

Are we at the bottom yet?   Well all indications that the massive price reductions are slowing and the number of homes that are selling quickly are on the rise.   According to a recent Trulia report the number of home owners keeping their price steady are on the rise.

The average discount held steady at 11 percent.

Trulia reports a 50 percent drop in cities with price reductions of 30 percent or more on average, with only seven major cities reporting such cuts at the beginning of the month.

Regionally, 20 percent of listings in the South and 22 percent of listings in the West, Midwest, and Northeast experienced price cuts.

 "I expect reductions to rise again as the tax credit extension deadline approaches, but I also expect mortgage rates to rise, so they may cancel out the savings [from list price reductions]," says Trulia CEO Pete Flint.

Apopka Florida Update for March 2009

Apopka is a fast-growing city and is expanding in all directions. Most notable are the new Lowes and Home Depot DIY stores to the north of the city on US 441 in the location of the previous Dunn Citrus grove (the stretch of 441 which runs through the city is named after Fred N. Dunn). Other businesses on the former Dunn Citrus site include Staples office supply and a second Chili's restaurant. The new Apopka bypass (to be named after Mayor Land) will relieve some of 441's traffic, taking the route from what is now the 441 junction with SR 429, and then passing south of the city to rejoin 441 at its junction with Maitland Blvd. south of the city.

We have included a monthly snapshot for Apopka including condos, townhomes, single family, villas and multifamily homes.
