This time of year many people that are interested in a new home are looking, and everyone is looking for a bargain. The good news is that there are plenty of bargains on the market, now and those that will be entering the market in coming months. Foreclosures can be an excellent value, they can also be money pits that cost more to repair than they are worth once they are repaired. A good inspection is always in order. The good news is usually that the banks often have already brought these homes up to standards in regards to carpet, paint, appliances etc. They have already deeply discounted these properties and adjusted not only the price but their expectations. This is not the starting point, but usually very close to what they will accept from a buyer.  Short Sales almost always look ... 06/17/2010

How did Valrico get its name? How did a city that’s name sounds like it has a Spanish background, but has loads of southern charm get its name from a northern man? There's also no other town quite like it, it is unique. Valrico is one of a kind, and it’s the only community with that name in the entire country. Valrico began as a region of cotton plantations before the Civil War. The area surrounding what is now Valrico Lake was first known as "Long Pond".  Thus Valrico area was known as Long Pond. The arrival of the Florida Central and Peninsular Railroad in 1890 brought many new immigrants from points north. William Tousey, a philosophy professor from Tufts College, gave the community its current name, Spanish for "rich valley", even though there's really no valley here. When the railr... 05/26/2010
