In the Beginning

Decades ago Orlando was just another central Florida town filled with orange groves. But that changed in the 1960’s when Walt Disney purchased such a spot for his next theme park, Disney World. The Disney franchise grew over the years to include MGM and Epcot to name a few. Decades later other amusements began to enter the Orlando area such as Sea World, Wet ‘n’ Wild, Universal Studios and most recent, Discovery Cove. Thanks to amusement areas such as Downtown Disney and Universal Citywalk, people living or visiting in the area can enjoy the Orlando nightlife and gain easy access to top quality acts and events no matter what time of the year it might be.

When this big business of entertainment arrived to the Orlando area so did the need for homes and condos, in addition to commercial real estate. Once a farming community of orange groves, Orlando has grown into one of the most popular travel destinations in the world.

Orlando Florida Luxury Real Estate

In addition to being one of the world's entertainment capitols, Orlando and the surrounding areas are also home to many large businesses. As a result the Orlando real estate market exploded while new areas of Florida luxury real estate continue to grow on a regular basis.

One of the largest growths in recent decades has been the vacation home market in Florida. As baby boomers retire and look for homes to avoid the cold months in the northern U.S, the snowbird population gets larger every year. Whether a buyer or an investor, vacation homes in Orlando area are a popular favorite, gaining more popularity every year as ‘the boomers’ age.

Unlike in years past where luxury homes were built only on the coasts, Orlando’s luxury real estate market has grown as captains of industry continue to make their way to the Orlando area. Today Orlando is one of the premiere markets you’ll find for luxury homes and lavish condo in Florida.

Orlando Commercial Real Estate

With the continuous growth in Orlando including the influx of all those who were a part of the entertainment world and other industries, it is only logical that the need to provide them goods and services has expanded. With that realization came a boom in the Orlando commercial real estate market, which continues to grow today. Whether its shopping centers, restaurants, doctor’s offices or a host of other commercial real estate in Orlando, the need for places to house goods and services is endless. Be it pre-built business complexes or land to house a new business, Orlando commercial real estate continues to be in strong demand.

Thanks to the warm climate other businesses, many in the technological field, took Disney’s lead and began to build in the area too. Orlando’s surrounding cities are home to a host of businesses and companies that employ thousands of people on a permanent basis.  The real estate in the Orlando area - such as homes, condos and commercial property - continues to expand.
