Florida property is the first choice for overseas investors coming
to America. TheMoveChannel.com's At a Glance infographic confirmed as much this
year, showing that the Sunshine State attracted 57.91 per cent of all US real
estate enquiries between August 2011 and July 2012.

With buyers fixated on Florida real estate, competition is high,
so you have to be careful where you choose to invest. To help you make the
right decision, TheMoveChannel.com breaks down the Florida market into easy
bite-size chunks.

Here are the most popular property destinations in Florida:

Orlando

When
international investors think of property in Florida, they usually think of
Orlando which has over many years developed into a tourist hotspot attracting
millions of visitors each year. Orlando has always been a good investment,
offering home owners the best returns in Florida due to the strong demand for
rental property close to the attractions. This makes it a magnet for both
second home purchasers and buy-to-let investors.

Keys

Florida Keys is a coral archipelago located just south of Miami. The
tiny islands span Monroe County and Miami-Dade County but offer residents a tropical
climate that's closer to the Caribbean than the rest of Florida. The chain of
islands are connected by the Overseas Highway, as well as a public bus service.
