TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – July 10, 2008 – Florida homeowners facing foreclosure have access to a lawyer and free legal advice through a program offered by the Florida Bar and Florida Legal Services.
According to Florida Legal Services Inc., 77,000 state homeowners are in foreclosure, making Florida second in the nation only to California. And many others are at least 30 days past due on their mortgage payment, which places them at risk of having their loans foreclosed.
Florida Legal Services and the Florida Bar Association have partnered in establishing a toll-free hotline – (866) 607-2187 – that consumers can call. They’ll be asked a few initial questions about their situation to ensure accurate placement, and then be sent to a free attorney. The attorney will then negotiate with the lender on behalf of the client to keep the home from being foreclosed.
“I applaud Florida Legal Services and the Florida Bar for offering this public service,” says Florida Agriculture and Consumer Services Commissioner Charles H. Bronson. “Any effort that helps families keep their homes in this uncertain economy is beneficial.”
More than 10,000 Florida attorneys have volunteered their services in the program, according to Florida Legal Services Inc.

Qualified Renters, That’s Who!
Are you thinking of renting your home in the Orange Park, Fleming Island or Jacksonville area? Then think Perkins Realty Property Management! “Property Management is a business that requires day to day involvement with landlords and tenants. It’s a lot more than finding a renter and collecting rents. The most important thing is to save the landlord time and money while maximizing the return on their investment dollar. It just makes sense to Pick the Perkins.” - Roger Perkins
Here’s what we guarantee at Perkins Realty:
Tenant Placement - We find more tenants because we do more advertising. Marketing is the key to any successful search for a renter. As anyone in Clay County knows – no one advertises more that the Perkins!”
Multiple Listing Service (MLS) - All local Realtors will know that your house is for rent.
Electronic Lockbox - We make it easy for Realtors to show your home. They would rather show homes with a lockbox than have to go across town to pick up a key.
Tenant Screening - Credit, criminal, eviction history and more.
Lease Preparation - Through a Florida Attorney specializing in Landlord/Tenant law, at no additional cost to you.
Escrow Services – We escrow the deposits and account for all funds.
Repair Requests – We personally inspect problems when a tenant calls. Our policy is to go to the property and see if we can make the repair at no cost to the landlord before we orders repairs. Sometimes it’s a very simple fix that we can do ourselves and avoid calling a licensed contractor. You don’t need to call an electrician to turn a tripped breaker back on. Often it’s an easy fix and will cost you nothing.
Rent Collection – We collect the rent and pay you by check or direct deposit.
Showings - 7 Days a week, whenever convenient for the prospective Renters!
Free Truck – Often this is the deciding factor when making a decision on which house to rent. The truck gives them an option with minimal out of pocket expense.”

Many Floridians will be firing up their propane grills for a traditional backyard barbecue this summer. To help make the grilling experience both safe and enjoyable for consumers, Florida Agriculture and Consumer Services Commissioner Charles H. Bronson, along with the Florida Propane Safety, Education and Research Council, has compiled a list of propane gas grill and cylinder safety tips:
Propane Grill Do’s:
- Always read and follow the grill manufacturer’s instructions and keep written materials and manuals in a safe, accessible place.
- When not in use, make sure all grill burner controls are turned off and that the cylinder valve is closed.
- Never attempt to move a hot grill.
- Make sure the grill is shut off and cool to the touch before covering it after use.
- Always use or store cylinders outdoors in an upright, vertical position.
- When you fill or exchange your cylinder, have your supplier check for dents, damage, rust or leaks.
- Before using your propane gas grill, check all connections for tightness using a leak-detection solution.
- If you experience difficulties in the operation of your gas grill, contact your local propane provider for service.
Propane Grill Don’ts:
- Do not smoke while handling the propane cylinder.
- Do not allow children to tamper or play with the cylinder or grill.
- Do not use, store or transport your cylinder where it would be exposed to high temperatures. (This includes storing spare cylinders under or near the grill.)
- Never store your cylinder indoors, especially in a garage where temperatures can be high and ignition sources may be present.
- Never leave your grill unattended when in use.
For a copy of the department’s free brochure, “Safe Cooking with Propane Gas Grills,” call the Bureau of Liquefied Petroleum Gas Inspections at (850) 921-8001.
