Orlando Real Estate: The Hidden Gems

When most people think of moving to Florida and begin to consider the Orlando area their first thoughts are of Disney, Epcot, and millions of tourists each year. Who would want to contend with all of that traffic and sun burned out of towners? But if that's what your thinking you could be short changing yourself and choosing a great place to live. These are the hidden gems of Orlando real estate.

So, just how do you find these great towns and communities? Your first step is to contact real estate agent Doug Packard. And why is Doug so different from any of the other agents in the greater Orlando area? First and foremost, Doug only represents buyers. Most agents fall into the category of Transaction Broker and provide extremely limited representation to a buyer, seller, or both in a single real estate transaction. Transaction brokers cannot represent either buyer or seller in a fiduciary capacity. Some large firms choose to represent buyers as transaction brokers because it limits their liability. A transaction brokerage is another form of dual agency, where the broker can collect both sides of the commission.

On the other hand, a Buyer's Agent (or Single Agent) like Doug Packard has full fiduciary duties of dealing honestly and fairly, loyalty, confidentiality, obedience, full disclosure, and accounting for all funds. Single agency is the only form of agency that creates a client-level relationship between the buyer and real estate agent. A Buyer's Agent is always acting with YOUR best interests in the real estate transaction.

Finding Your Orlando Dream Home

Your next step is to review the Orlando area neighborhoods including Altamonte Springs, Lake Mary, Longwood, Oviedo, Sanford, and Winter Springs. Not only does Doug provide the detailed information on each town and residential community, but he also goes above and beyond by providing you his own personal insights so that you can get a better feel for the area.

Finally, when you have a better idea of what you can expect to find in the area, you can search the Orlando MLS and review thousands of homes and arrange for property tours. Better yet, give Doug a call today and let him know your wish list - he'll find you the home that meets or exceeds your expectations. After all, he's always working with your best interests in mind.
