October 2020 Newsletter

With the onset of Fall, the question is what will our usually busy season look like this year. There has been a lot of discussion recently about the enormous influx of people moving to Florida. I did some research on just where all these home buyers were coming from, and you can read about that in one of the featured articles below.
 
Sarasota continues to receive national recognition, most recently being ranked as the No.1 Place to Retire in the U.S. according to U.S. News & World Report, and Condé Nast Traveler has named Longboat Key among the 15 best islands in the United States. Buyers are calling me from all over the country looking to move to this area. If you are planning to make a move, right now is the time to list your home for sale.
 
All me and let’s discuss – you may be surprised what your home might be worth in today’s market.
