UCF - By: joshua dubin

In February of 2010 activity and interest is beginning to start for UCF parents who want to invest in a property for there student.

Instead of throwing rent down the drain on a local apartment, the sharp price decline in the UCF area has allowed parents to not only a great deal on a home but save money monthly. When purchasing a 3 or 4 bedrooms home, 2 or 3 of the rooms can be rented to friends in the range of $500 dollars per month.

This allows the parents to pay less per month for their child’s housing, give them the opportunity for a big payoff when they sell the property and offers their child a much safer / study friendly environment as opposed to off campus apartments.

These types of properties can be purchased somewhere north or south of $150,000, with many townhomes in the low 100,000 range. Be warned inventory in these areas gets very low in the summer time as parents from all over the United States, especially South Florida come into town to stake their claim on the perfect home.

UCF is the 3rd largest college in the Country; this has dramatically helped grow the East Orlando community. During 2001-2006, the UCF housing market experienced tremendous appreciation, some homes doubled in price within a year or two. Just as fast as home values went up they came back down. This has caused many homeowners to go into foreclosure and be forced to sell their homes at discounted prices.

Many parents and students understand the opportunities that this has created for them to purchase homes while attending the university. There are wide selections of neighborhoods that are conveniently located to UCF that are in the first time homebuyer’s price range.
