In spring creek village there are many makes and models of manufactured homes. It is a very reasonable way to have waterfront/gulf access property in Florida. They range in price from $117,000 to $298,000. Depending on if you want to be on the water or own a dry lot. The land is included in the sale so not lot rent. Property taxes as if it were single family homes. The city did pass an ordinance to be able to build homes on mobile home lots so in the near future the community will change. Many changes will happen and have already started. One person has an application in for the build of a home now. It is a 55+ community, that means in order to live in it one person needs to be 55 or older, but you can still buy and own the property and not be 55. Many people buy for their parents to retire to or to just keep their boats there so they can get to the gulf. Contact me for more information about this and other properties/communities in the area. As always Make it a great day......

Massage is theraputic. SW Florida Bonita Springs
Massage is a way to relieve stress, very theraputic, good for your skin and in general good health. They release toxin in the body, one thing you have to remember when you get one is to drink plenty of water. In Bonita Springs there is a school to get the education you need to get your massage therapist license. It is located not too far from the dog track on Bonita Beach Rd. It is a great place to get a full one hour massage for very small price. They are given in a classroom setting, no not a lot of privacy but as I said very inexpensive. Yes they are students and are learning but they have had schooling long before they can practice on you. I only started getting massages about two years ago and wouldn't give them up for anything now. I believe that it helps me get through my stressful times, gives me time to relax and a great way to end my day. Contact me for more information on where you can schedule your time. As always Make it a great day.........

Housing for Older Persons in SW Florida
There are a few communities in Bonita Springs, Estero, Naples, and Ft. Myers that are for people over the age of 55. The reason they can do this is because of HOPA. Housing for older persons act. It has to do with occupancy, 80 percent of the homes need to be occupied by one person over the age of 55. There is criteria the community needs to meet to be able to be a 55+ community. I have a few properties located in communities that you can buy but not live in unless you are 55. Some are great investments now and you move in later, under $150,000. Some with gulf access and others, close to all the conveniences of the SW Florida lifestyle. Gulf to Golf. Contact me for more information on these and other communities in the area.

Today is going to be a beautiful day in southwest florida, especially Bonita Springs. The sun is out, it is about 62 degrees already and the day is predicted to be dry. What a great place to be alive. Last night I went to The Grill Room, at the new Coconut Point Town Center mall, designed by the Simon Group, for the friends and family night. It was very nice. The atmosphere was great, nice lighting, decor and ambiance. The new Coconut Point Town Center is beautiful, I drive by it at night and it is very elegant looking, the lighting, the way it is designed, the landscaping with palm trees, the lakes and bridges. It is absolutely one of the nicest malls in Southwest Florida. What a great place to shop and be entertained. The grand opening is scheduled for February 16th thru February 18th.
