La Casa Real Estate Inc Update for September

09/07/2014 By La Casa Webmaster

Submitted by Marilyn Kulibert, President

Previous columns have mentioned that our La Casa Real Estate website notifies us of how the people who visit our site find us. For one week in late August we had 899 visits, averaging 128 people a day. Internet search engines such as google.com, yahoo.com, bing.com, aol.com, comcast.com provide 58% of our visitors.

This means that people may be typing in “mobile parks Florida” or “senior mobile parks” or manufactured homes for sale” etc, in addition to just “La Casa”. The search engine will provide them with a list of places to look at, with La Casa among them. Of that 58%, half of them have been on our pages before, according to the report.

Those who know the website address (www.lacasaswfl.com) amount to 28% of the visitors. The new www.lacasaroc.com website provided 9 visitors that week and Facebook.com provided 8 visitors.

We have always had ads on seniormobiles.com, which has a link to our website. They provided 33 visitors that week in August, and 29 of them were new visitors. The internet has changed how people look for homes and we are right up to date in helping them find their Florida home and lifestyle.

December is a month when we count our blessings

December is a month when we count our blessings. At La Casa Real Estate we are blessed to have a loyal crew of volunteers who take time from their day to help us show off our park to prospective residents.

If you’d like to join our group of volunteers, please stop by the officer and sign up. We are always in need of new people to help us out. Because everyone is so busy enjoying the La Casa lifestyle, it sometimes is hard to reach a volunteer when we need one in a hurry. This past year with so many sales and increased interest in our park, it has been especially busy and we have no reason to think it will be slowing down.

Florida real estate laws restrict what volunteers can and cannot do or say, so we will be having a training for all the volunteers, both new and experienced, to refresh everyone’s memory and help our new people learn the rules. Watch for announcements of the training date.

We have had a fantastic couple months

We have had a fantastic couple months of sales so far in 2012. Our volunteers have been busy showing homes and the park‘s amenities, and the office has been swamped at times with people wanting to see what La Casa has to offer. This is good news for those who are selling their homes and those who may have to sell in the future.

Did you know there is a special financing program set up in La Casa so that you can purchase the share your home is on at a very good rate of interest? In addition, you can finance it over 15 years. It might even work out to a lower monthly payment than your current lot rent is. La Casa does the financing instead of a mortgage company or a bank. If you want more information, contact Gary Beeler in the La Casa Real Estate office.

2011 has been a turn-around year for LaCasa Real Estate. We sold 51 homes and lots in our community. We also sold 12 shares to new homeowners who wanted to become a part of the shareholder community. Remember if you want to buy your share, instead of renting from La Casa, favorable terms can be arranged to help you pay for it over time if you see the office for details.

January 7, 2012 we will have a training and refresher session for all the people who volunteer to show our park and homes to prospective buyers. This will cover all the laws pertaining to what a volunteer can and cannot do legally under a real estate license. We will also show the volunteers how to run those new golf carts that we use in our trips around the park. Refreshments will follow the meeting, which is at 9:30 am in the Clubhouse. We are also looking for new volunteers to supplement our existing group. Both groups need to attend the training and refresher session. Deadline to sign up for the session is January 5.

In the near future we will have a TV with a CD/DVD showing photos of our park running continuously in the office waiting room, plus the availability of mailing a copy to prospective buyers who contact us by mail and email. We are going to update our website so it is more user friendly and include some of the new pictures.

The LCRE board is always looking for marketing ideas, so if you have any suggestions, please share them with our broker, Gary Beeler. We are anticipating another

More Training for La Casa Real Estate

On January 7 we conducted a training session for volunteers who will be showing our park and homes to prospective buyers. We were excited to see so many persons who love the park sign up to be a part of our volunteer group. Last year our volunteers were busy participating in all the great activities La Casa has to offer, and there was a shortage of names to call, especially during the week. Our real estate office cannot function without our great volunteers, so we have increased the number of available persons for 2012. The board would like to thank those who participated in our training session.

The Real Estate office now has a DVD of the park to show prospective buyers when they arrive. It is shown on the new flat screen TV in the reception area and has been sent by e-mail and mail to people who inquire about the park.

In addition to the DVD, there are some other things we are doing to help market our lifestyle and homes. If a buyer closes on a property by April 30, they will receive 6 months free cable. We have new flags in front that will call attention to our Open Houses. We will be redesigning the La Casa website this year to make it more user friendly.

Ideas are always welcome. Let us know if you have ideas to help sell our La Casa lifestyle and homes.

April 2012 La Casa Real Estate Update

Interest in our LaCasa lifestyle has been tremendous so far this year. People are finding their way to our part of Florida and are expressing their desires to become a part of our community. We usually have our busiest month for sales in April, but so far in February and March we have exceeded interest shown in previous years.

The LCRE board has been working on various promotional items that will direct more people to our website and through our front door. These promotions have been paying off with increased sales of homes. If you haven’t seen our video, go to www.youtube.com and enter “La Casa North Port” in the search box to see it. We are approaching 1,000 views and growing day by day.

One of the things people like about our park is the spaciousness of the lots and the lakes. Our homeowners do a good job in keeping their homes looking attractive and neat. The HOA maintenance staff keeps our buildings and grounds in top condition. All this contributes to a positive first impression when prospective buyers are taken around the park. It is one of the things that set us apart from our competitors. We would like to thank everyone for doing their part in keeping LaCasa looking so nice. It’s great to live in LaCasa!
