buying a villa

[wildwood]

Myself and DH are going to see a property company on sunday with the view to buying a villa in orlando i am very scared about making the purchase but something we have wanted to do for so long i was wondering if any one had any tips !

The only tip I can offer you is to do as much research as possible and speak to several different people/companies. Get as much information as possible about every aspect before buying and good luck!

Find out as well if there are any restrictions over how long you can rent it out for etc, i.e if you can only rent it out for 10 months out of every 12, also if they have any recommendations on companies that will look after it for you for changeovers, security etc

I have some friends who bought there. They said you need to have enough money in reserve to be able to manage for a year without rental income - it can take a while for the business to come in regularly - that's if you are planning on renting it of course!

Good luck and have lots of fun choosing the right property for you.

Simon's book on Orlando has quite a bit of information on buying a house in orlando (or at least the last edition did...i assume the new edition also does)..

i suggest reading that along with your other research...
