Legal advice for property in Florida

Florida’s glorious sunshine and gorgeous sandy beaches have attracted millions of visitors from all around the whole for almost a century. Over 60 million visitors went to the state last year alone (including nearly 1 million from the UK) and had a direct impact on the Florida real estate market. So much so that the median price range of Florida property has increased 75% over the last five years and the high and growing demand for Florida investment property shows no sign of dissipating.

Couple steady and growing demand with historically high UK pound values against the US dollar and its no wonder that homes can be snapped off the market in as little as one day!

The benefits of buying in Florida are:

• Florida has a legal system which is similar in ways to that in the UK. The words may change but the sentiments are the same.
• The strength of the sterling pound against the US dollar. Even if this fluctuates, villas and condos in Orlando, are still good value for money.
• The availability of management companies which make the process of buying a property and maintaining it from the other side of the Atlantic a realistic and even relaxed option.
• The quality of construction and finish is high as the USA is one of the most discerning markets in which to do business. Building Companies in Florida have big competition and so must deliver on property quality and price.
