At the same time, the National Association of Realtors (NAR) reports inventory has dropped 4.3% from one year ago.These two statistics are directly related to one another.

Early morning walk in Fort Myers Beach. Orchids, Eucalyptus, jasmine, the back bay or Estero Bay. Short clip of Lovers Key. Sometimes we may need to take a step back and smell the roses, lift one's eyes and just enjoy what is around us and smile. Its a simple feeling. Sometimes simplicity is what we most crave for and often we walk away from it. When we do come back to that feeling a sort of peace and strength radiates again within you. We know we can always come back to it.      Fell free to call LLoyd, your local expert. Fort Myers Beach condos $179 K to $550 K   06/23/2017
