"This was my first investment in Real Estate
and it was a scary venture. Joe walked me through
all of the steps, set me up with the right people
and told me I could more then double my money in
close to 12 months. I put around $21,000 down on
a town home in a new community and watched the equity
grow as the builder raised their prices. In 14 months
the home I paid $210,000 for is now reselling for
$255,000-$289,000. Joe said by summers end the same
home should be worth over $300,000. He has been
right on target on all market prices and look forward
to making an $90,000-$100,000 profit in less than
2 years. Not bad for only $21,000 down."

"We are retired but did not want to invest
in the stock market. Joe told us how he was making
great returns on new home construction in Southwest
Florida and how hot the market was. We were a bit
hesitant not knowing much about real estate, especially
in Florida but the way Joe explained it, it made
a lot of sense. He said with only 10 percent down
in the $200,000 range for a condo, we could make
between $30,000-$70,000 on our $25,000 investment
in close to a year. He guided us to a new community
and we got in at $206,900 in January 2004. The builders
price for the same unit is now $233,900 with 10-15
more price increases to come before sell out. This
is better than the stock market and much safer.
It is fun to watch the appreciation in our condo.
Joe is a thorough professional, always has our best
interests at heart and is great to work with."

"We thought Joe was feeding us a line when
he said this new community would be the hottest
selling community in Sarasota and if we purchased
the 3-bedroom home in the $250,000 range it should
be worth over $400,000 in 2 to 2 and a half years.
The market price is now climbing to $360,000-$389,000
in 2 years and is on target to surpass $425,000
by summers end 2004. Joe knows his Real Estate and
is a straight shooter. We recommend his services
to everyone and trust him with our home."

"We purchased 3 homes in the same community
on the advice from Joe and have seen great appreciation
on all 3. We live in one and rent the other two.
We were uneasy about making the commitment and stretching
ourselves but Joe convinced us that money was cheap
enough to borrow and if we could not find renters
then we could flip them and make a nice return.
We will keep them for 2 years then sell them off
and take a nice long vacation. Joe is very good
at what he does and would come highly recommended
from us.
