Our inventory is high and our prices are adjusting. With interest rates still staying low now is the RIGHT time to purchase your island home! Just think, winter is only a couple of months away and for some it means shoveling snow and dark, dreary days but here in the Florida Keys our average temperature is 70 degrees and the sun shines almost everyday. Come and enjoy our beautiful weather and our quaint little towns and unique lifestyle.

I have an opportunity to receive consultation fees for an out of town seller who is using an out of town listing agent. In order to post the listings on our local MLS I must be listed as either the agent or co-agent. I will be the local contact for showings but the listing agent will do all of the other work. Has anyone else done this?

I have a potential listing of a short sale. The problem is that Indymac holds the first mortgage and Bank of America the second which is actually a line of credit. Has anyone else come across a similar scenario and if so what advise can you give me? Nowadays our time is stretched thin, we get paid less commission if indeed the short sale closes and I'm wondering if this is worth my time and effort. Any comments, tips would be greatly appreciated!

I have afriend who wants to sell his 2 bedroom houseboat located just outside of Key West. He and his wife have a new baby girl and would like to buy a home on "the rock" They love the boat but need more to provide for their daughter. Please visit my website @ www.paradisekw.com if you know someone looking for the laid back lifestyle that we are commonly known for. It is a FSBO and you or your customers can contact the sellers directly for more info.
