Marco Island, Fla. - Canadians flocking to the warmer climate of sunny Southwest Florida are buying up Marco Island real estate deals at a 50% discount off 2005 peak prices according to one local expert.
Mike McCarty of The McCarty Group, which specializes in Marco Island properties, says Canadians as well as Americans from the colder northern states are heading to the exclusive enclave south of Naples to escape the extended winter to enjoy the incredible tropical temperatures of Southwest Florida.
"Snow birds visiting Marco Island and the Naples areas are often shocked at the good local real estate deals available today. The housing crisis and high rate of foreclosures nationwide has had the positive effect of bringing out buyers who are interested in taking advantage of the existing historically low mortgage interest rates and lower prices."
McCarty says seasonal residents often start by considering Marco Island condos, yet he's had many customers choose to purchase single family homes because of the large selection on the market and good deals available right now.
"We have Marco Island homes in our local inventory to meet any family's lifestyle, whether for seasonal or year-round residents who just want a short walk to the beach or those who may prefer a boat slip in their backyard."
He says The McCarty Group is fully experienced with helping buyers from out of state, including Canada, England and Europe.
"The currency exchange rate for British buyers is actually very good right now, leading to a potential 39% discount on the property. Now that's what I call a bargain!"
