History of Niceville/ValparaisoEvidence shows that perhaps up to 10,000 years ago Native Americans were living in the area now occupied by the City of Niceville. A number of projectile points have been found and burial mounds dot the area offering mute proof of times long past. Conflict arose between these native populations and the European explorers who began arriving in the area around 1500-1700. This was a time of proud Native Americans, conquering Spanish conquistadors, and thieving pirates. By the early 1800s the new American government had settled in, and established its own systems of politics, religion, and trade, much the same way the Native Americans had done centuries earlier. During these times the fishing industry thrived on mullet caught in the sandy-bottomed bays of the ...

Archaeological evidence suggests that American Indians lived on the land where Niceville currently resides as far back as ten thousand years ago. Many arrowheads and burial mounds have been located around the area silently telling the story of years past. The native peoples clashed with European settlers who arrived on these shores in the 16th century, a time of Spanish conquistadors, proud Indians, and devious pirates. The early 19th century saw the rise of America's government and its systems of religion, trade, and politics, mirroring the rise of Native Americans centuries before. In this era the early fishing business depended on mullet, who made their homes in the sandy floors of local bays. One of these bays came to be called Boggy Bayou because of a large peat deposit at Juniper ...

The details of the housing bill were a disappointment for most people in the housing industry.  It does very little to keep home values from falling or stimulate home purchases.  Seems to be a whole lot smarter to support home values so that those in trouble can sell their homes instead of having to be "bailed out'.  If home values were not falling and there were more buyers we would not have a foreclosure crisis.  Two things make a foreclosures 1. economic hardship on the borrower (loss of income) 2. inability to sell the house for more than what is owed on it."Toxic assets" is a moving target.  As more people lose their jobs and home values continue to fall, more and more of the assets become "toxic."  The "value" of real estate is not a set number.  It moves as the "supply and demand...

Lenders are required to give a buyer a good-faith estimate of their closing costs within three days after they apply for a loan. Some will give such an estimate even before they apply if asked. Even if it is no guarantee, this written estimate will give an idea of what kind of fees the buyer can expect to pay, as well as an opportunity to negotiate for a better deal. If the buyer is a good credit borrower they can challenge fees if they seem excessive.  Lenders don't control many fees that show up on the statement. Keep in mind that the good faith estimate doesn't include such out-of-pocket costs as state mortgage taxes, homeowners insurance and property taxes, which the buyer may be expected to pay at the time of closing. In fact, the total tab at closing could be several times more th...

Hi Wendy, I'm a First Time Homebuyer in Niceville Florida (or rather am seeking to become one) and my wife and I found a house that is a short sale.I've been researching the ins and out of buying a short sale but there are of course more questions then answers :) The information I was given was a BPO of 290K, the home is listed at 230K, with an offer of 200K. This information was given freely by the listing agent. The home is beautiful but it has since been vacated. No utilities, the home has since been broken into and vandalized, the refrigerator is tainted with an unholy smell and must be replaced, and the owner left a ton of debris behind when he/she moved out.  Is this common in a short sale? Is this really a foreclosure? From what I have been reading it seems like people continue ...

With the economy struggling, apparently Home Depot sees room for improvement as they plan to put a new Home Depot over the bridge in the city of Niceville with construction to begin next year.  Destin has a Home Depot but it is the only one around for miles unless you want to drive to Panama City.  The new Home Depot according to sources say that it will be located in Niceville off of the John Sims Parkway near Rocky Bayou Drive.  This is great news for the economy of Niceville and should help to bring some much needed jobs to the area.  This should also bring people to the area in need of housing and help our real estate sales in our area.

Today I received an email from an attorney in the Niceville and Destin Florida area regarding helping homeowners facing foreclosure.  The attorney, Mark A. Violette, noted that there are several federal laws that will protect the homeowner, notably the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.  He said that lenders are required to provide a copy of a loan history report to the borrower upon request.  Most mortgage lenders use loan servicing companies, and these companies are unable to comply with such a request.  The good news is that if the lender does not provide the report, collection efforts and the impending foreclosure are halted.  Attorney Violette kindly provided the following example: Step One: Lender files a Foreclosure Complaint. Attached to the Complaint is a Notice Pursuant to th...
