When you are not redecorating your new apartment home or lounging at the pool, come out and enjoy Orlando’s night life. Orlando offers absolute total relaxation with endless pristine restaurants and a wide variety of museums, festivals and recreational entertainment. From East Orlando to the Southwest side of town you will experience the explosion of flavors from our many new restaurants in this exciting city.

Come join me for a bite to eat at Orlando’s newest European Bistro – La Creperia Café. This fab Bistro is centrally located in the Fashion Square Mall on East Colonial Drive. Your mouth will rejoice at the dazzling selection of nearly 70 items focusing on the sweet and savory crepes to mouth watering Paninis.

After enjoying the latest in cuisine, take a stroll with me around Lake Eola. You can walk off those extra pounds you acquired during your food fest while enjoying the lights and festive atmosphere the Lake has to offer. Be careful, you might fall in love with this area and want to claim it for your own. It gives you a big city atmosphere with a small town charm.

Join us weekly for more of the night life in the city beautiful. Until then I’ve got dinner to eat and lakes to walk.

Ciao!!!

A recent article in the Tampa Tribune warned “apartment rents are on the rise”.

The quote from the CEO of a large apartment builder and management company may seem ominous but on closer inspection he is talking about “in three to five years”.

What we are seeing right now and expect for the next year are terrific deals for the renter.

While some apartments are raising the rents slightly they are also offering some incredible incentives to lure immediate renters. We have many communities that are offering one, two and sometimes three months FREE.

Oftentimes they will prorate part or all of the special over the lease term, effectively lowering the monthly rent. The decrease can be dramatic!

For example a $1,000 apartment that is offering 2 months free prorated over a 12 month lease will cost $833 per month. That is a tremendous discount!

So, I’m not sure what will happen in three to five years, but I know right now is a GREAT time to be looking for an apartment.
