Why NOW

Published by admin under Uncategorized

Is NOW the Time to Buy an Investment Home? There’s good reasons to say yes. In Florida the income needed to buy a median priced home has fallen 20%. Meanwhile, rents have risen 6% in that same time period. Couple this with the near record high number of foreclosures. Displaced families are finding refuge in rental homes. Bob DeWitt of GID Investment Advisers testified to Congress this week regarding a capital shortage to meet the demand for apartment rental units. Good news for the owner of single family investments. Because apartments builders can’t find the capital to build, more family s will rent single family homes. And finally, interest rates. If they rise, like expected, it will only fuel the demand for rentals. Looks like NOW is the time to buy investment homes.

Amazing Horse Video

Published by admin under Uncategorized

I stumbled upon this amazing horse, well he is a pony but amazing none the less. It would be great if all horses loaded up as easily as patches. Can you imagine riding around Orlando with your horse sitting next to you enjoying his face in the wind as much as a dog? My horse doesn’t like leaving our property. He gets very nervous in different environments and no doubt would have made minced meat out of us and the convertible before we left the property.

What to Look For in Stalls

Published by admin under Uncategorized

You have found the Orlando horse property you have always wanted but is the barn a good fit for your horse? Here are a few tips on what to look for in stalls. Look for square stalls at least 12 by 12 feet (14 by 14 is even better), with a 10-foot clearance to the rafters. The bigger the stall, the less its occupant walks in soiled bedding-so the easier it is to clean and the more you’ll save on bedding in the long run.

Prefab stall partitions run a standard 7 feet high, either solid or topped with bars. In Florida you’ll want the bars, they promote air flow. Between stalls, solid partitions are safer if neighbors don’t get along.

Center the stall door in the aisle wall. Then hang the feed bucket in one corner of the stall and the water bucket in another. That discourages horses from dunking their feed (a habit believed to cause colic) and so minimizes mess.

Don’t use:

Solid metal doors-unless you want to stay awake all night. You can hear a horse pawing at a metal door a quarter-mile away.
