Well done on a nice blog rickandjuliarealtors. I was searching for information on real estate Gainesville Florida and came across your post this post - not quite what I was looking for related to real estate Gainesville Florida but very interesting all the same!

Well, it's a new year - in fact it's almost the Chinese New Year. I'm still putting together the latest property portfolios for Hernando County, Florida. This year the budget allows us to purchase a few more nice looking lots on the waterfront - great investment! But we're still juggling the numbers to come up with a sensible forecast - what with the Katrina aftermath and all. Hopefully the coming year will see a bit more stability in the real estate market, particularly here in Florida.

If you do have a moment, please take a look at my new site: Florida Real Estate .

Might be an attractive proposition. A happy new year to everyone!
