The Orlando property market may be boosted by news that it remains second only to Las Vegas as a tourist destination for the Christmas holiday season.

Research by online travel website Orbitz found that the Florida city will still be ahead of locations such as New York, Chicago, San Francisco and Honolulu, the latter soaring to fourth spot this year from 13th last year.

Miami was the next highest ranked Florida destination, standing at tenth.

The figures were based on hotel and package bookings made so far for the Christmas holiday period.

Such findings suggest that the holiday property sector in Orlando still has much to look forward to.

Another boost for Orlando property came last week with news that a new property tax law has been added to the Florida state constitution.

This means that anyone fitting renewable energy or stormproof items to their property will not incur higher taxes based on the consequent increase in value of the home.
