<p>Orlando is a city in the U.S. state of Florida and the county seat of Orange County. Located in Central Florida, it is the center of the Orlando metropolitan area, which had a population of 2,509,831, according to U.S. Census Bureau figures released in July 2017. These figures make it the 23rd-largest metropolitan area in the United States, the sixth-largest metropolitan area in the Southern United States, and the third-largest metropolitan area in Florida. As of 2018, Orlando had an estimated city-proper population of 285,713, making it the 71st-largest city in the United States, the fourth-largest city in Florida, and the state's largest inland city. The City of Orlando is nicknamed "the City Beautiful," and its symbol is the Linton E. Allen Memorial Fountain, commonly referred to as simply the "Lake Eola fountain" at Lake Eola Park. The Orlando International Airport (MCO) is the thirteenth-busiest airport in the United States and the 29th-busiest in the world. Orlando is one of the most visited cities in the world primarily driven by tourism, major events, and convention traffic, in 2018 the city drew more than 75 million visitors. The two largest and most internationally renowned tourist attractions in the Orlando area include the Walt Disney World Resort, opened by the Walt Disney Company in 1971, and located approximately 21 miles (34 km) southwest of Downtown Orlando in Bay Lake; and the Universal Orlando Resort, opened in 1990 as a major expansion of Universal Studios Florida. With the exception of Walt Disney World, most major attractions are located along International Drive with one of these attractions being the Wheel at ICON Park Orlando. The city is also one of the busiest American cities for conferences and conventions; the Orange County Convention Center is the second-largest convention facility in the United States. Like other major cities in the Sun Belt, Orlando grew rapidly from the 1980s up into the first decade of the 21st century. Orlando is home to the University of Central Florida, which is the largest university campus in the United States in terms of enrollment as of 2015. In 2010, Orlando was listed as a "Gamma?" level global city in the World Cities Study Group's inventory.</p>

<p>A Post Office opened at Windermere in 1888. The Post Office closed in 1901, and reopened in 1911. Windermere was established as a residential development in 1889 and chartered in 1925.</p><p>During late 2007, the Town of Windermere filed a proposal to annex&nbsp;Isleworth&nbsp;and Butler Bay, both wealthy subdivisions. This was met with extensive debate from town residents and an objection from&nbsp;Orange County, which stood to lose millions of dollars of property tax revenue. After lengthy discussions, and battles with the county, Isleworth remained unincorporated, but Butler Bay was annexed into Windermere, with over 90% of its residents approving annexation via a mail-in ballot.</p>

<p>Maitland is one of the oldest incorporated suburban municipalities in central Florida. The area was previously inhabited by Timucuan Native Americans. The town was originally named for a nearby Lake, which honored Captain William Seton Maitland, who fought in the Second Seminole Indian War, and was slain in the battle of Wahoo Swamp. A small military outpost was built in 1838 on the western shore of Lake Fumecheliga (later Lake Maitland) during the Second Seminole War. After the Civil War, new residents arrived in the area. Christopher Columbus Beasley, perhaps the first permanent settler, arrived at Lake Maitland in 1871. A post office opened on January 2 of the next year and operated in his home.[6] Around this post office, a small town grew. In the closing decades of the nineteenth century the area was put into extensive citrus production.[7] Lake Maitland was incorporated as a town in 1885, the third such town in Orange County to do so. In its infancy, Lake Maitland was often characterized as a rural village, with streets lined with large oak trees planted by early town aldermen. However, the old town began to rapidly modernize as Orlando's suburban sprawl reached the town in the mid 1920s. A Street Corner in Lake Maitland, ca.1926 During this period the town grew rapidly as new houses and roads were built. In 1959, Maitland was incorporated as a city. Maitland is a suburb of Orlando. The town's "historical corridor" encompasses old residences still standing and occupied in the Lake Lily-Lake Catherine area and extending through the central portion of the city. Examples of these century-old structures include "The Church of the Good Shepherd" (1883); "William H. Waterhouse House" (1884), and the "Maitland Art Center" (1937) . The area has always been a vacation spot because of its climate, location to theme parks and people. However, Maitland has recently become a location where affluent individuals have come to reside. Maitland has many picturesque parks along lakes, which attract many boaters.</p>

<p>During the 1870s, Hamilton Disston of Philadelphia took an interest in developing the region while on fishing trips with Henry Shelton Sanford, founder of the city of Sanford. Disston contracted with the Florida Internal Improvement Fund, then in receivership, to pay $1 million to offset its Civil War and Reconstruction debt. In exchange, Disston would be awarded half the land he drained from the state's swamps. He dug canals and, in 1886-1887, established St. Cloud sugarcane plantation, named after St. Cloud, Minnesota, although many long-time locals state the town was named after Saint-Cloud, France, located fairly close to Paris. Diston opened the Sugar Belt Railway to the South Florida Railroad in 1888 to carry his product to market. But the Panic of 1893 dropped land values, and the Great Freeze of 1894-1895 ruined the plantation. Disston returned to Philadelphia, where he died in 1896. The Sugar Belt Railway merged into the South Florida Railroad. An attempt to cultivate rice in the area failed, and for several years the land remained fallow. Then in 1909, 35,000 acres (14,000 ha) were acquired by the Seminole Land &amp; Investment Company as the site for a Grand Army of the Republic veterans' colony. St. Cloud was selected because of its "health, climate and productiveness of soil." It was first permanently settled in 1909 by William G. King, a real estate manager from Alachua County who had been given the responsibility "to plan, locate and develop a town." On April 16, 1909, the Kissimmee Valley Gazette announced the "New Town of St. Cloud", a "Soldiers Colony" to be near Kissimmee. The newspaper called the purchase by the Seminole Land and Investment Company "one of the most important real estate deals ever made in the State of Florida." It was reported that the officers of the company had searched all over Florida for the perfect site for a veterans' colony, particularly one especially suited for "health, climate, and productiveness of the soil". It is believed that many of the streets were named for states from which the Civil War veterans had served, but the street names were already assigned to the platted land before settlement occurred. On June 1, 1915, the Florida Legislature incorporated St. Cloud as a city. Its downtown features landmark buildings by the Orlando architectural firm of Ryan &amp; Roberts, a partnership consisting of two women. The buildings by Ryan and Roberts and others in the downtown area are predominantly Spanish Revival. St. Cloud has tried to separate itself from neighboring cities, and particularly the theme parks, by promoting an image of small-town life, and by attempting to make itself economically less dependent on Kissimmee. On March 6, 2006, St. Cloud introduced CyberSpot, a program which gives residents free high-speed wireless Internet access. The city then ended Cyberspot, quoting "it's too costly". The city is served by the Osceola Library System.</p>

<p>Kissimmee is a city in central Florida's Osceola County, just south of Orlando. It&rsquo;s defined by its proximity to the region&rsquo;s multitude of amusement parks, including the massive Walt Disney World Resort complex. The city lies along the northwest shore of Lake Tohopekaliga (nicknamed Lake Toho), and its verdant Kissimmee Waterfront Park encompasses walking paths, playgrounds and a fishing pier.</p>

<p><strong>Winter Garden</strong>&nbsp;is a city 14 miles (23&nbsp;km) west of&nbsp;Downtown Orlando&nbsp;in the western part of&nbsp;Orange County, Florida, United States. Established by Henry Harrel of Alachua in 1857, it was formerly called Beulah. It is part of the&nbsp;Orlando–Kissimmee–Sanford, Florida Metropolitan Statistical Area. Its population was 46,051 as of 2019.</p><p>Winter Garden has a warm and humid&nbsp;subtropical&nbsp;climate, and there are two major seasons each year. One of those seasons is hot and rainy, lasting from May until October (roughly coinciding with the&nbsp;Atlantic hurricane season). The other is a cooler season (November through March) that brings more moderate temperatures and less frequent rainfall. The area's warm and humid climate is caused primarily by its low elevation and its position relatively close to the&nbsp;Tropic of Cancer, and much of its weather is affected by the movement of the&nbsp;Gulf Stream.</p>

I would like to recommend William J. Rogan to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. My son and I purchased a small home in Cocoa, Florida in October of 2019. I do not reside In Florida, but Mr. Rogan made the process simple. Although this was probably at the lower end of home purchases Mr. Rogan typically deals with, we were treated the same as if this had been a million-dollar purchase. William’s knowledge of all things surrounding the buying and selling process provided a wealth of assets to us during our purchase. He was able to advise us on how to go about obtaining the survey, what home and insurance inspections were necessary and where to find them. He also advised us on the home warranty process. He prepared the written contingencies needed after the home inspection so that we would be happy with our purchase at the time of closing. William’s approach to the home sale process is unique in that one of his goals is to bridge the gap between the Seller and the Buyer amicably so that both parties are happy with the end result. The Esign documents William provides are easy to use and understand. We felt like during the whole process William had our back. In the end we were the beneficiaries of William’s vast knowledge and experience in all things real estate related.
Thanks again for All you do,

Sincerely,

John Lee

Mr. Rogan made the process simple!
