Buying Florida property

Buy with the team that manages what it sells

Global has been a leader in the Central Florida vacation home and real estate industry since 1993. Whether your goal is income-producing property, a true second home, or something to hold for long-term appreciation, the Global team helps you every step of the way.

Why buy with Global

We know these homes because we run them

Global Vacation Rentals manages over 350 short-term vacation rental homes in some of the most upscale resort communities in the Kissimmee/Orlando area, and Global Real Estate Services manages over 400 long-term rentals across Central Florida. That means your buyer's agent can tell you what a home in ChampionsGate or Storey Lake actually grosses in a season — not what a brochure hopes it will.

  • Real occupancy and rate data from homes we manage today
  • Corridor, harbor & Ocala specialists in three local offices
  • Agents who speak English, Spanish, Portuguese & Chinese
  • Financing, inspection & closing partners who know vacation homes

Investor programs

Three smarter ways to fund a Florida purchase

We recommend you talk to an expert before making any decisions — we'll connect you with advisors for due diligence, and handle the real estate side. Deep-diving the 1031? The Tax Advantage Center has the calculator, the timeline, and six plain-English guides.

EB-5 Visa Program

A green card through investment — for you, your spouse, and children under 21.

Since 1993, Global Real Estate, Inc. has helped foreign nationals find viable opportunities in Central Florida. The EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program is one of the quickest paths to a U.S. green card: an investment of $500,000 plus fees into an approved Regional Center program can secure permanent residency for your immediate family, with a path to citizenship in about five years. Our agents speak English, Spanish, Portuguese, and Chinese, and we work alongside the advisors who handle your due diligence.

  • Green cards for investor, spouse & children under 21
  • Live, work & study anywhere in the U.S.
  • Path to citizenship after ~5 years
  • We help identify approved opportunities

1031 Exchange

Sell an investment property elsewhere, defer the capital gains, buy in Florida.

IRC Section 1031 lets investors sell a qualified property, reinvest the proceeds in like-kind real estate, and defer all capital gains taxes. Vacation rental homes in prime Florida locations are an exceptional replacement property — usable personally and optimized for returns when you’re away. We work with preferred qualified intermediaries to keep the 45-day identification and 180-day closing windows on track.

  • Defer capital gains taxes on investment property
  • 45-day identification / 180-day acquisition windows
  • Preferred qualified intermediaries on call
  • Trade into income-producing vacation rentals

IRA Real Estate Investment

Buy Florida rental property inside a self-directed retirement account.

Real estate can be held inside a self-directed IRA: the account purchases the property, rental cash flow returns to the account, and gains compound for retirement. The rules are particular — title, purchase money, expenses, and income all must flow through the IRA, and personal use is prohibited — so we work with custodians and advisors who administer these purchases correctly.

  • Rental income flows back into your IRA
  • Roth structures can grow tax-free
  • Cash purchasing power in a competitive market
  • We coordinate with your custodian & advisor
