US property buyers advised to try Kissimmee

Kissimmee in central Florida is a favourable place to buy US property, it has been suggested.

Road House Realty said the city offers good health benefits due to the very low level of atmospheric pollution compared to other urban areas in the US.

The firm noted: "Kissimmee has one of the highest air quality percentages in the United States which means you can breathe fresh air within the city," suggesting this makes it a good place for those with children, as they can grow up in a cleaner environment. Kissimmee is located close to the city of Orlando, which may mean that those looking to buy there may enjoy the benefits of being close to the attractions of the city, including Disney World and Universal Studios.

Those buying in the US may be able to benefit from falling prices in urban areas.

Last month's Standard & Poor's/Case-Shiller Home Price Indices revealed a 19.1 per cent year-on-year fall in prices during the first quarter of 2009, the largest such fall in the 21-year history of the survey.
