Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty Sees Increase in Luxury Home Sales at Lake Forest in North Seminole
ORLANDO - Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty reports that sales of luxury homes in Lake Forest in north Seminole County have been increasing at a steady clip.
Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty Associates Sally Andy and David Warren, who focus on the luxury community located off SR 46, said 17 luxury homes have sold at Lake Forest during the first six months of 2010 at an average sale price of $397,000. (View market stats at http://www.stirlingsir.com/video/uneek/Postcards/Lake%20Forest/Lake%20Forest%20Powerkard.pdf).
Only 10 homes sold at Lake Forest in the same period of 2009.
Since January of this year, 33 homes at Lake Forest have been listed for sale and almost a third of them — nine sales — are currently pending, Andy said.
Warren said the highest sale price for the first half of this year was $683,616 compared to the $1,040,000 highest sale reported at Lake Forest in 2009.
“In 2009 the average Lake Forest asking price listed was $499,145. Today, the average asking price is $480,170, only a small variation,” he said.
The difference between the average asking price and the average sale price is approximately 4 percent, Warren said.
“There’s been a big increase in the number of visitors touring the community and the sales speak for themselves,” said Andy and Warren. “There may be a little room for negotiation, but Lake Forest pricing is pretty stable, and asking prices are pretty realistic,” they added.

Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts is critical link in Downtown Orlando resurgence, John Crossman says
ORLANDO - The Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts is one of Orlando’s “Big Three” projects to redevelop the downtown district. The new Amway Center is set to open in October and work to renovate the Citrus Bowl is scheduled. The open parking lot across from City Hall where the Center for Performing Arts will be located is now fenced off with construction to commence shortly, said John Crossman, CCIM, president of Crossman & Company, the Orlando firm that ranks as one of the largest third-party retail leasing and management firms in the Southeast.
Crossman recently moderated a panel discussion at Embassy Suites Hotel on Pine Street in downtown Orlando to discuss the Dr. Phillips Center for Performing Arts and the future of downtown Orlando. Speakers included Davon Barbour, assistant director of the Downtown Development Board/Community Redevelopment Agency, Alexis Jackson, vice president of communications for the Dr. Phillips Center and Walter O’Shea, vice president of development for Hines.
“Sports facilities are important as business generators, and the Orlando region will turn out to support our sports teams,” Crossman told the group. “But long-term, the educational, community and cultural growth that will emanate from the Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts will result in more cultural and educational enrichment and greater long-term benefits,” Crossman said.
