Orlando Shows a Promising Trend By Bucking The National Realty Meltdown


There is excitement in the air as the property agents in Orlando witness better sales since sometime. While some firms managed to sell only 2-3 homes during the first quarter of this year, they have now managed to increase the sales to more than 4 times that so far. With infrastructure improvements, better facilities, and lower Orlando bank foreclosures are now bucking the realty meltdown.

Orlando, Florida

There is a renewed sense of hope in Orlando, while many ZIP codes such as 32827 and 32832 including areas such as Lake Nona, Moss Park etc see an uptick in the summer sales. On sale are all types of houses including foreclosed homes, new constructions, and town houses etc. The cost of homes ranges from over a million dollars and depends on the ZIP codes and the size of the property. Considered as a positive sign, the realtors are being upbeat about the current situation.

In areas such as the Orlando International Airport/Lake Nona, there are 54 real estates under contract in the price range of $150,000 to $4.5 million. Besides this, there is a luxury market development just outside city and there is a growing interest among people of all levels in this property. Even as property prices are stabilizing in Orlando, the city is still witness an increasing number of foreclosures. Following the foreclosures by state trend, Orlando’s ZIP codes such as 32827 reported 85 foreclosure filings, 18 auctions, and 4 bank foreclosure listings from October to last month. Additionally, ZIP code 32832 witnessed 262 preforeclosures, 54 foreclosure auctions, and 24 bank repos.

Fortunately, these are almost insignificant numbers as compared to the 27, 515 preforeclosures, 6, 152 auctions, and almost 4, 500 repo homes reported from across the US.
