Orlando Home Stats

ORLANDO, Fla. – Oct. 23, 2009 – Florida’s existing home sales rose in September, which marks more than a year (13 months) that sales activity has increased in the year-to-year comparison, according to the latest housing data released by Florida Realtors®. September’s statewide sales also increased over sales activity in August in both the existing home and existing condominium markets.

If you find yourself asking whether it was the second or the ninth house with that great fireplace, then you may need a better way to organize your observations. One of the best ways to do this is by creating a checklist. Consider ranking elements like the home, neighborhood and schools on a scale as either "good", "average" or "poor".

Orlando Restaurant Review

I went to Pleasure Island the other night, and ghosts followed me.

The old clubs are gone, the nightly New Year’s countdown is silenced, Disney cast members hawking Jell-O shots have moved on to other, presumably less alcoholic, pursuits. I stood on the steps of the deserted and much-loved Adventurers Club, where a man pointed out the chained doors to his young son and then sadly walked away.
