BTW, property values in all the areas covered by Zillow have not

Tell that to the people in SW Florida

According to Zillow, values in SW Fl are down 25 to 30%. I have a buddy in
Cape Coral that bought in the Spring of 06. He's trying to get out with a
50k loss +RE fees. Unfortunately comps. in his area are 200k under his
ask. It's not a good time to sell in Fl unless you are just upgrading or
changing location within Fl.


Hey, Jim,

To the best of my knowledge (as of a few months ago) the "Ranch House" we
had is still the last house that has sold in Ranch Colony. We got out in
the nick of time, even with the delay caused by "Wilma".
