NBA Lock-Out’s Effect on Orlando

ORLANDO – The NBA has been in a lock-out and has already missed the first couple weeks of the season. Orlando has a lot at stake if the NBA does not work out their differences. The NBA All-Star game is scheduled to be in Orlando early next year. That weekend alone is expected to produce $80M – $100 Million of economic impact in the Orlando area.

Here’s a breakdown of who is working at the Amway Center besides Dwight Howard and his high-priced buddies:

- 550 hourly food service employees, and 21 who are salaried.

- 66 janitors.

- 125 ushers or ticker takers

Buddy Dyer took charge along with other NBA city Mayors and wrote a letter to David Stern and the NBA. Below is their letter:

An open letter to the National Basketball Association and the NBA Players Union from America’s Mayors:

We are the Mayors of our country’s NBA cities.  Every year, our residents pack the arenas where our teams play.  They buy the NBA’s products.  They cheer for their favorite players with passion and intensity.  They attend games and make lasting memories with family and friends.  Many own or work at small businesses that depend on NBA games for survival.  No matter how you look at it, our NBA teams are a vital part of the economic and social fabric of our cities.

Unfortunately, lost in the debate over a new NBA collective bargaining agreement, has been the perspective of those very residents and the negative impact a cancelled season might have on them, our cities and our local economies.

We know the issues being discussed between NBA owners and players are complex and need to be addressed to ensure the long-term wellbeing of the league.  We are not interested in taking a side.  The United States Conference of Mayors has always maintained impartiality in major leagues sports negotiations.

Rather, we respectfully ask that you consider the consequences to our cities should the lockout continue.  We ask that you work quickly to find a way to compromise so that we might salvage the upcoming NBA season.

We are proud to call our cities home to NBA franchises.  As basketball fans, we know winning and losing is part of the game.  Rest assured; everyone loses if there is no season.

If we can be of any help to the process of securing the upcoming season, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

Sincerely,

Mayor Gregory A. Ballard, Indianapolis

Mayor Buddy Dyer, Orlando

Mayor Kevin Johnson, Sacramento

Is it a good time to sell? - 5 Reasons to sell now!

Your House Will Get More Exposure Now Than the Winter

Housing sales usually level off in the summer and then regain momentum in September and October. The spring buyers’ market has passed. Don’t miss the early fall market. It has consistently outperformed the winter season.

Distressed Properties Will Impact Prices

Distressed properties (foreclosures and short sales) on the market will increase this fall and winter. This will put tremendous downward pressure on prices for at least the next 12-18 months. Get your home sold before they become your competition.

Mortgages Will Become More Difficult to Attain

Lending standards are continuing to tighten. There is legislation currently being considered that will make it even harder for buyers to qualify. Less demand will equate to lower prices.

It is the Perfect Time to Move-Up

With prices where they are and interest rates at all time lows, there may have never been a better time to move-up into your dream home. If you move into a more desirable home now, you will be in position to gain larger equity as prices eventually appreciate.

You Get to Move On with Your Life

Probably the most important reason to sell is so you can get on with your life. You are considering selling for a reason. Do not allow a less-than-stellar housing market prevent you from reaching your goals as an individual or as a family. Think about the reasons you are thinking about moving. Are these reasons really important to you? If you have to take less than you were originally hoping to get for your house, your family has a question to ask each other: Is the dollar difference in sales price worth putting off our plans? Only you and your family know the answer to that question.
