In news that may interest those considering investing on Fort Myers property, it has been reported that optimism is still high concerning property development in the area.

Those behind such developments, government officials and businesses are still upbeat about the development along the new Treeline Avenue, reports news-press.com.

Reasons cited for this are the proximity of the area to Southwest Florida International Airport, Interstate 75 and a range of shopping centres.

The Fort Myers area is one that has seen a lot of recent investment in recent times as part of the Gulf Opportunity Zone.

Earlier this month the head of business development at Rightmove Overseas Carlo Walther said the city was a retirement hotspot which had seen around 60 golf courses built.

Such a development is good news for those investing in rental property, he stated, explaining: "Because of the golf courses you can also get some good long leases during winter."
