ORLANDO, Fla. --- Prices for luxury vacation homes, second homes and retirement homes in Brevard County near Orlando are down 40-60 percent from the market peak, offering some of the best opportunities in a lifetime, says Kim Tillett, International Luxury Home Specialist with Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty.
Tillett said choice oceanfront and riverfront properties are selling for record low prices. The hottest segment of the market is in the $200-400,000 price range, she added.
Homeowners in Brevard enjoy easy access to golf, boating and beaches. There is also the close proximity to Orlando, theme parks and international airport. Brevard County offers the Port at Cape Canaveral which includes restaurants, shopping and cruise ships that depart throughout the week. Kennedy Space Center is only a short drive away. Homes in Brevard are currently priced among the lowest in the state, Tillett said.
“We are seeing the bottom of the market in Brevard County and the pricing on waterfront and oceanfront residential properties are among the lowest we have ever seen,” Tillett said.

Home Sales Hottest in Three Market Sectors: Distressed Sales, First-Time Buyers and Vacation Homes
Home Sales Hottest in Three Market Sectors: Distressed Sales, First-Time Buyers and Vacation Homes
ORLANDO, Fla. - Central Florida home sales may still leave a lot to be desired but three market segments are warming up fast, according to Roger Soderstrom, founder and owner of Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty in Orlando.
“About half of all home sales in the Central Florida market today qualify as distressed sales,” said Soderstrom. “These include short sales and foreclosures,” he said.
That’s no secret, Soderstrom said, but two emerging market segments are much more promising.
“First-time home buyers seeking houses priced under $400,000 are mostly younger buyers, under 34, who were priced out of the market from 2004-2007, but are now able to purchase a home due to a 40-50 percent drop in the median sale price,” Soderstrom said.
Today’s up to $8,000 tax credit for first time home buyers is also enhancing current sales activity, he said.
Families seeking vacation homes, pre-retirement and retirement homes are starting to heat up the market, Soderstrom added.
“Many Americans, Canadians and U.K. residents are looking for homes priced from $125,000 to just under $300,000,” Soderstrom said, “and generally they prefer new homes or recently built homes and condominiums.”
“We are seeing substantially more activity in all three of these market sectors, but at the same time we’re seeing some recovery in the upper tier – $1,000,000 to $3,000,000 range – that Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty (http://www.stirlingsir.com/) is most recognized for. There are some amazing values and opportunities in the market right now and I don’t know when it will be a better time to buy a home,” he explained.
“It will be many years before we see a return to 2005 levels but we are seeing many bright spots here and there,” Soderstrom said.

Hotels in New York, Washington, D.C., Florida offer Valuable Packages, Special Incentives to Improve Bookings during Summer Travel Season
Hotels in New York, Washington, D.C., Florida offer Valuable Packages, Special Incentives to Improve Bookings during Summer Travel Season
MAITLAND, Fla. - CRSHotels.com, one of the nation’s largest online select hotel reservations systems, reports that hotels in New York, Washington, D.C. and Florida are developing valuable packages and special incentives to improve bookings during the summer travel season.
“Many of the packages and special incentives are uniquely valuable because smaller, select hotels are competing with major chain properties for guests,” said Carlos Giraldo, president of CRSHotels.com.
The online booking agency, which posted sales worth more than $18 million last year, is working with hotel clients to develop and promote the packages, Giraldo said.
“Select hotels can offer substantially more value in a package or incentive offer because they aren’t governed by corporate mandates and chain hotel requirements,” Giraldo said.
