Southwest Florida Property Investment Opportunities

The Southwest Region of Florida is strategically positioned as the gateway to the Caribbean Basin and Latin America and is located less than a two hour drive from the major metropolitan areas of Miami, Orlando and Tampa. The Region is serviced by a modern transportation infrastructure with easy access to International Airports. Southwest Florida is one of the fastest growing population and economic areas of both Florida and the United States.

The recent downturn in the U.S. economy offers a once in a life time opportunity to acquire large tracts of property at prices not experienced since the 90's in this region.

Land values are forecast to begin climbing sometime in 2008 or the first half of 2009, upon completion of the U.S. Presidential Election and the elimination of the uncertainty associated with this change.

This area is still forecast to be the location of choice for the large number of Americans nearing retirement age. With total population in excess of 2.0 million by 2010.

Southwest Florida remains one of the few areas remaining in Florida where large land tracts can be acquired at "affordable prices"... albeit the sites are limited.

Our non-US clients have the additional benefit of the weak U.S. dollar.
