International real estate investors Florida is ripe

For awhile, real estate boomed all over America until 2006. The year saw the market slowing down. The slump can be attributed to the oversupply of new and resale properties. This was most evident in South Florida, one of the hottest markets in previous years. Although there are some isolated areas that are still seller’s markets, most of the area is now a buyer’s market. This is good news for property investors and buyers because this is the right time to get in.

According to an annual state of the market report for Southwest Florida, realtors from the Re/Max-Ellis Team in Ft. Myers, oversupply caused prices to go down significantly.


Another thing that is also noted in the report, found at http://topagent.com/2007sotm.htm, is that the decline in new home building will lead to the rise of prices as soon as demand keeps up with the current supply. Prices may rise again in the year 2008.

Based on these reports, now is the best time to invest on property. Investors might want to look at the Miami/Fort Lauderdale area on the east coast. Prices are also looking good at the Palm Beach communities, north of Fort Lauderdale. Properties in the cities of Fort Meyers and Port Charlotte on the Gulf of Mexico are also worth looking at.

Another point of consideration for international real estate investors is the decline of the dollar in the past months. The depreciation of the dollar has given foreign investors an advantage when it comes to buying in America.
