Yesterday my wife and I decided to visit some Parade of Homes properties in Viera, Florida.  This is the first time I have ever seen a sand sculpture in a million dollar plus home.  This is the model by Christopher Burton Homes in the gated Wyndham at Duran golf course community in Viera, Florida. By the way, today is the last day of the Parade of Homes event. (The picture was taken with my Blackberry so it may not be the greatest quality!)

There is new construction available in Viera's premier 55+ community of Heritage Isle for those not wanting  re-sale properties.  Heritage Isle is relatively new so the "oldest" properties were just built in 2004! When one thinks of new construction these days they think long waits.   That is because the scenery has changed since the days five years ago when builders were selling homes faster than they could build them in Brevard County, Florida! If you are in the market for a 55+ gated community in Florida, then Heritage Isle offers re-sale single family homes as well as new construction!  Currently 21 re-sale single family homes on the market with list prices from $159,900 to $449,000 including about seven short sales. But if you prefer new construction  I just saw a brochure advertis...

You are not always in control what happens to you, but you are always in control of how you respond. Your attitude is the only thing you have control of 100% of the time. What you think about leads to habits. Your habits develop your character and your character develops your future. It all starts with your attitude and your mind.The sky is the limit if your attitude believes.

Buy New - The pitfalls of buying a Foreclosure.......  Maybe you have seen this ad recently? That's the latest ad campaign from many National Home Builders. While the Home Builders are using this campaign tactic to drum up new home sales, there are some valid points that any prospective home-buyer should consider when performing a home search. Now to take a neutral stance, there are some great Foreclosure Deals out there if you have a good grasp for this process or a very saavy agent, and quick reaction. I believe the dilemma is less of an issue if your area lacks an over supply of homes and not burdened with excess Foreclosures. For instance, here in Viera, Fl, the lack of existing Foreclosures/existing homes has sparked a mini New Construction Housing Boom on the West side of I-95.

The Fairway Lakes development in Viera offers gated, golf course living on one of Brevard County’s most desirable course – Duran Golf Club. Fairway Lakes homes are being built by some of the most desirable custom builders around – like Christopher Burton Custom Homes, Arthur Rutenberg, and Viera Builders.   Although not presently building any new homes at this time, many of the resale properties were constructed by Toll Brothers. Remember to take your own real estate agent with you when considering new construction.  The on site representative works for the builder (seller) not the buyer. Located near The Avenues at Viera shopping mall, the new Viera Hospital, Viera High School, and more, Fairway Lakes offers homeowners a great location, quality homes and very reasonable prices!
