I think he said the villa was built around 2003-2004. Still fairly new. He set aside 20,000 USD for repairs etc but got new carpets very cheaply and a fantastic price on painting, interior and...
Very, very unlikely.
For some people, especially those who held off buying a "place in the sun" because they either never got round to it or they thought they couldn't afford it, Florida real...
Phil, I have a friend from Berkshire that also raves about this shop. It is a must stop everytime he is in Florida. He advocates the rental of a car. Very highly. It's extremely easy to reach by...
Scotti, you've asked some very involved visa questions. that's why everyone is talking about MC charges. The short answer is that you need to talk to some specialists. The problem I foresee with...
Anorak, the Far/Bar purchase and sale agreement is in standard use throughout the state. You will almost always (except on the unusual occasion when someone proposes use of the far contract) see...
Personal experience Anorak. I have also looked at many, many rental properties and yes, some of them are obviously only "cosmetically" cleaned up. Nothing like the old black mold stain in a bedroom...
If you have family to live with and to assist in supporting you, the move is more likely to be successful. At least you will have something of a safety net during the period of time you are trying...
This is a difficult question to answer. When you say "in Florida", what part of the state are you talking about? Rents in Orlando, for example, will be different from a similar property in...
Elaine, would you PM me with the villa address?
Happy to help.
Elaine, very sorry to have heard of Terry's discoveries at the villa. I was going to pop round with some tools but didn't know if you all have made the decision to walk away from the property or not.
My Florida air con bills are running about $550 per month. I can usually see a decline in bills in October but not the last two or three years. It was 15 degrees above normal in Florida a few days...
Martin, sorry to hear about your child. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
Yes, some people can flourish in a recession but I am seeing far fewer of them in the current...
I saw online that the Orlando Sentinel reported a few days ago that for the first time since World War II, Florida is actually losing population. The state's economy rests on a very narrow beam of...
Julie, in answer to your questions, I suspect that you will be covered by health insurance by your sponsoring hospital or medical facility where you will be working. I would make sure you have a...
If you read the newspapers in Florida, it doesn't seem like the crime problem is noticeably worse. I did hear that "concealed weapons permits" applications have increased substantially. There is a...
Jeff, the property is very much as cheap as that in Kissimmee! The unit I was referring to was one I personally took a look at on the Legacy Dunes Condo - minium (just to avoid those pesky auto...
No need to be unpleasant. However you make my point: with 45,000 Americans dying every year, it is difficult to accept your theory that most Americans are happy with their level of care. In fact,...
There haven't been any serious hurricanes in Florida for about FIVE years now....
I think the travel agent is being a bit paranoid!!!!!!
The following story was prominently reported in the New York Times this past weekend:

A 32 year old middle class woman who basically...
definitely the smaller villas.
Everyone can spread out a bit.
Cram everyone into one villa and it's a recipe for a fight of some sort.
Chrizzy, I've been watching the "town hall" meetings in America on cnn. I'm not sure poor people in America are "happy with very little". At one televised meeting in Michigan, a man pushed his...
In October, there can be a big difference in the water temperature between Cocoa and Clearwater. The west coast with the Gulf tends to be much warmer. Cocoa in October could be a lot cooler. I...
I think that what we are all going through is one day going to be called The Great Recession. Europe is going to fare better in coming out of this than the US. America is having a very, very...
Why is it part of human nature to always take things just one step too far? You are sitting in your sun lounger next to the pool on a lovely Florida afternoon and suddenly that thought creeps into...
