You may have read my post in mid-2009 describing that we were feeling an up tick in the market. It is now clear this trend has legs with 11 of the last 12 months (and 15 of the last 17) exhibiting growth over the same month in the prior year. This is a good sign and with continued strength, we'll see supply and demand come back into line, which generally leads price stability and long term growth. One of the benefits this

area has over say, South Florida, is it does not have a huge glut of inventory from construction in the 2003-2006 and in fact, there is limited land for future expansion. This will help to increase our values and preserve the beautiful beaches and ecosystem that are unique to our slice of heaven. How many areas in the world can you see both sun rises and sun sets from the same beach?
