Online resources to help you find a Central Florida home

There are numerous online resources available to you as a homebuyer searching for a home in the Central Florida area. These resources allow you the homebuyer to get a detailed view of what is available. Unlike the ‘old days’ when agents used newspapers or home magazines to advertise their homes for sale, the customer can now be confident that the homes they are viewing online are the most recent available.

A huge benefit of searching online compared to searching for a home with print media is you can see nearly every home for sale instead of just seeing a small sample of homes that the Broker chose to advertise. The following are two of the better online sources for finding a home in Central Florida.

My Website and Blog

If you are a potential homebuyer reading this blog I have a comprehensive home search feature just for you. This home search feature is free. You can access this feature by clicking on the Florida map located to the upper left of this post or by clicking here.

You will be able to search for homes for sale throughout Central Florida including the cities of, Orlando, Kissimmee, DeLand, Deltona, Windermere, Sanford, Winter Park, Clermont or Lake Mary. You will be able to search for residential/single family homes, condos, town homes, mobile homes, land, commercial property, multi-family/investment property and even rentals.

You can search for specific features including searching by price, square feet and number of bedrooms, the number of baths, waterfront homes and pool homes.

Once you have reviewed the search results you can contact me or call me to receive additional information or to schedule a time to view the home or homes. This search tool and home search feature is not only available here it is also accessible from gregstaker.com along with additional useful home buying and selling web pages.
