 Broward County Neighborhood Information
What is a Neighborhood? What does it mean? What can you tell me about it?
Neighborhood names are used and referred to by everyone, but often you cannot even find them on a map. So, where do neighborhood names come from? Historically, neighborhood names are taken from the subdivision names or plat names (a plat name being the name assigned when the application to subdivide a parcel of land into lots and streets is made). Some plat names are partial legal descriptions and are not easily used as neighborhood names. Some neighborhood names are taken from the most popular or established street name in that area, while other neighborhood names come from a development, subdivision or individual of notoriety.
The following list of the more commonly recognized neighborhoods is taken from the nearly 50,000 plat names recorded with Broward, Palm Beach and Miami-Dade County.
For information about a neighborhood (you have interest in), or finding a neighborhood (meeting your criteria), Call Lynne Knapp (954) 647-5335.

First Time Buyers >Making Your Dream Home Come True
Is it time to initiate the purchase of your first home? You may be starting a family and outgrowing your small apartment. If the time seems right to seriously consider buying a house, but you are afraid you don't have enough cash, don't worry!
Real estate agents are experienced in helping first-time buyers locate the financial resources to make such a move. The first step is to sit down with an agent who is familiar with available loan programs. You will need money for the down payment, and your income must be high enough to meet the lender's qualifying standards.
Real estate agents may be able to minimize the amount of cash needed with a little help from either the sellers or the loan company. You might be able to include some of the closing costs in your mortgage. The sellers might consider a lease/purchase agreement which would allow you to rent for a few months while accumulating the funds you need. If you are ready to buy your first home, let your real estate agent assist you in making your dream a reality.
