Most of the homes are 2 bedroom, 2 bath homes with an average size of 1,626 square feet. Out of these 16 homes, it looks like only one is a short sale or bank-owned property. None of these properties has sold yet, though one has a pending contract.

There's a lot of misinformation and speculation out there about the housing market right now. Opinions can vary wildly about where our market is, what it's doing and where it's going. But, as always, the truth is in the real numbers. So starting with this blog I'm going to begin to take a look at some of our local neighborhoods more closely and examine the recent market statistics and see what, if anything, we can determine from the real numbers.

One of the best things that I've found about starting this blog is that it gives me the opportunity to talk about some of the wonderful neighborhoods here in Central Florida that may fall through the cracks. An internet search can give you all the stats and maps in the world, but nothing beats the knowledge of a Realtor on the ground who has lived in the area and knows the neighborhoods.
In my opinion, one of the best kept secrets of Casselberry is the Sausalito community. In the heart of Casselberry is Lake Howell, a large beautiful spring-fed lake that is the perfect spot for a day of fishing, skiing, or boating. It also happens to have a large amount of waterfront property around it. And nestled comfortably in its Northern shores is the cozy…
