Most people know of Orlando as the home of the Disney characters from all the popular fairy tales. Real estate investors know of Orlando as the place where they can receive at least a 25% gain on a capital investment. Returns like this are rarely seen or heard of in other investment arenas. Orlando real estate investments provide higher returns on the money in a shorter period
of time than many stocks that are available to the public.

Orlando real estate is located in Florida, one of the fastest growing states in the United States today. Many people are beginning to consider Orlando as much more than a place for summer vacation for the family; they are starting to move to the city permanently. This is good news for investors seeking to invest in Orlando real estate because it means an increase in demand for Orlando real estate.

In the absence of demand for Orlando real estate, only investors with the time and patience to wait a few years until the market picks up would receive any gains from their investment. Even in this case, the amount of return would not be as great. Currently, the average home price for Orlando real estate is around $260,000. This is a growth of 34% since last year. Investors who bought Orlando real estate around this time last year and held on to it can now sell their Orlando real estate for a much higher profit than they would have received otherwise.

Investors seeking to invest in Orlando real estate can purchases houses then sell them for a higher price to make a profit. Orlando real estate investors can also purchase houses that have been foreclosed. This kind of investment can sometimes be more profitable than regular Orlando real estate investments because the price of foreclosed houses is most often much lower than the market value of the home. You can often sell foreclosed homes at or above the market value for a sizeable profit.

There is still good news for investors that did not get in on Orlando real estate before the period of growth. Since the Orlando real estate market is only expected to increase in the coming years, investors can still purchase Orlando real estate now and receive moderate profits from the investments. Unlike coastal areas like Miami and Key West, the Orlando real estate bubble is only starting to blow up.
