About the BRITISH HOMES GROUP Florida
The BRITISH HOMES GROUP Florida is based in Orlando, Florida and
is the UK's favourite one-stop shop for all their Florida property needs.
Together we all hope to make your dealings related to Florida as
simple and as stress free as possible. As you will see by the flags
below we nearly all come from the UK and have 'made the move' to the US at varying
times over the last 15 years.
Thank you for putting your trust in our services and, if you take
a moment to read our client testimonials,
you can see that we all take your interests in purchasing or financing
Florida property very seriously indeed.
Our goal is to help everyone achieve their dream of owning a little
piece of the 'Sunshine State'.
Yours sincerely,
The BRITISH HOMES GROUP team

in Orlando to assemble a team of British and American property
and finance professionals that has become the United Kingdom's
favourite one-stop shop for British villa owners in Florida. |
