PLANT CITY, Fla. (AP) — Charles Todd Lee spent a lifetime going backstage at concerts, following politicians on the campaign trail and capturing iconic shots of everyone from Martin Luther King Jr. to Mick Jagger to Mickey Mantle. Today, he enjoys such freedom only in his dreams. The 67-year-old photographer has been confined to a nursing home for five years, the victim of a stroke that paralyzed his left side. And he's angry. "Most of the people come here to die, so you want to die," he said. "It is a prison. I can't escape it." ... Source: www.miamiherald.com --- 37 days ago

Homeowners across the country have been seeing their property values sink with the slumping housing market, but residents in one Florida community have a more explosive reason behind their depreciating home values. According to a Foxnews.com report from the Associated Press, an 8-year-old development in Orlando, FL, was built on a World War II bombing range that wasn’t thoroughly cleared. Now the residents are scared for their lives and investments and angry with the developers (Lennar Corp., which built many of the homes) and local government officials, who residents claim shouldn’t have allowed constuction on that site in the first place. The value of the homes — which originally cost $200,000 to $600,000 — has dropped by at least a third, residents say. That’s compared with a roughly 20 percent decline across Florida caused by the real estate slump. There are hundreds of former bombing and artillery training ranges across the United States, but few have 2,000 homes sitting on them, the AP reported. Since the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers began sweeping the Orlando neighborhoods a year ago, they’ve found more than 200 munitions and other potentially volatile remnants. Some weighed up to 23 pounds. Most were recovered on the grounds of a middle school, including one lodged beneath the landing pit for the long jump, the AP reported. Not the first time The Army Corps says it’s extremely unlikely any of the buried munitions would detonat ... Source: blogs.transworldnews.com --- 32 days ago
Florida’s median sales price for existing homes last month was $193,600; a year ago, it was $238,900 for a 19 percent decrease. But, looking back to July 2003, the statewide median sales price for single-family homes has increased 18 percent over the five-year-period, according to FAR records – at that time, the statewide existing-home median price was $164,000. Thus making an investment into real estate still safer than into stocks – as former K-Mart , Enron or Worldcom shareholders will testify, whose assets (stocks) were simply declared valueless after those companies collapsed (The median is the midpoint; half the homes sold for more, half for less). More than half of Florida’s metropolitan statistical areas (MSAs) reported increased sales of existing homes in July; seven MSAs also showed gains in condo sales. Realtors around the state reported increased business activity, including more telephone calls, more home showings and a rise in pending sales. Industry analysts predict that the housing stimulus ...

No way to sugar coat this. In a presentation to investors in late September, JPMorgan Chase & Co., hot off of announcing its purchase of Washington Mutual Bank, predicted Florida home prices would fall another 16 percent. It could get even worse. In the event of what it called a "deeper recession," the bank projected Florida prices falling another 21 percent. A "severe recession" could bring prices crashing a further 36 percent. JPMorgan assumes Florida prices have fallen 28 percent, which corresponds to what most home price indices say. So the bank is betting on a peak-to-trough decline of 44 percent in Florida (the 28 percent drop we've already experienced + another 16 percent). How rotten is this news? Consider this: JPMorgan predicts further home price drops of 10 percent in California and 8 percent nationally. So our decline could be twice as bad as the nation's and 60 percent worse than California's. Worse than California. I promised I wouldn't sugar coat the news, but I fibbed. Northern Florida is experiencing the worst home price plunges these days, so the depreciation could disproportionately affect communities like Ocala, Gainesville, Pensacola and Tallahassee. Feel better? Probably not. (Thanks to SoldierRenter for the JPMorgan tip) ... Find more results for Florida homes on RSSMicro.com |
