With 23 miles of pristine beaches and 300 miles of inland waterways, Fort Lauderdale is awash in natural beauty and distinctive charm. From its early days as home to the Seminole Indians to its current fame as a fast growing business and cultural hub, this ultra-cool, cosmopolitan city has retained a vibrant sense of community and a casually elegant style.

The greater Fort Lauderdale area is a very diverse community that attracts people from all walks of life. It is particularly attractive to the ever growing gay and lesbian community which has settled largely in the revitalized island city of Wilton Manors and now spreading out into the surrounding areas of Oakland Park, Victoria Park and Palm Aire.

The Fort Lauderdale/Wilton Manors Real Estate market is robust and property values continue to appreciate daily. Currently, property values are appreciating at a rate of between 20 and 30 percent annually. For those wanting to call paradise home, there probably won’t be a better time to purchase your south Florida dream home than the present.
