Good Question!

CDD stands for Community Development District.

The short definition is: New Communities are taxed by the city in order to pay for the improvements necessary to accomodate all of the new residents that will be moving into that area. Now the developers of those communities do not want to pay that tax, so they are passed on to the home buyers whom purchase their New Homes. The CDD tax is a fixed amount, and is spread out in smaller amounts that are added to your annual tax bill. When a New Owner sells the home, the remains balance is transferred to the new owner. That is my definition of CDD... for a definition from a much smarter person, see below. ;)

A Community Development District (CDD) is a local, special purpose government…

This morning I snuck into the new LaMorada Model Home... The Bougainvillea. And my goodness is it pretty! Keep in mind it's about 95% done BUT, I wanted you guys to see it first. :)

This coming Sunday we are hosting an Open House and I couldn't be more excited.

This First Floor Unit offers incredible views of the Gulf of Mexico and is literally a few steps from the sand. Rarely available unit in one of the most sought after locations in Naples... Gulfshore Blvd.

During my last visit, I was having a conversation with a fellow agent in the living room and in the corner of my eye, I see a Dolphin. This is truly a special unit!

Can you spot the dolphin? :)

OH KALEA.


I visited Kalea Bay today and have fallen completely in love with the development. Every aspect of Kalea Bay is impressive... The Amenities, the Actual Units, the Views, the Rooftop Terrace, the Staff and the Residents. I arrived during a special timeframe, Tower One was just recently completed and many residents were moving in. Felt like there was a lot of excitement in the air. I visited the clubhouse and there were residents out by the pool with their kids/grandkids, other residents at the poolside bar and others having lunch from the Clubhouse Cafe. I was given a tour by the sales staff assistant, Christina... she was very down to earth and informative. Let's go over a few things I learned and found note worthy!

Figuring out when to plunge into the real estate market can be quite intimidating—especially when prices are high, choices are limited, and history urges restraint.

"We’ve seen two or three years of what could be considered unsustainable levels of price appreciation, as well as an inventory shortage that resulted in a record-low number of homes for sale across the country," says Javier Vivas, director of economic research for realtor.com®. "When you factor those together, you have a market that has to either explode or see some relief."

Comforting, right? Well, take heart: Experts agree that relief is indeed on the horizon.

New predictions for 2018 forecast more moderate gains in home prices and rising inventory levels, while low unemployment and…
