Welcome to

A group of Realtors headed to the state capitol Wednesday with good news, kind of.

Governor Charlie Crist held a round table discussion with a dozen real estate agents from across the state. The realtors told Crist home sales are up as much as a hundred percent in some areas, but prices are way down. Crist says several bills to put property tax reductions on the ballot could help the market rebound.

“I think the timing is fine and I’ll tell you why. If these things get to the ballot it’s up to the people to decide, who better to know and they can make the decision if they want more dog parks or not, or more money in their pocket,” said Crist.

The realtors asked Crist for more out-of-state advertising to entice retiring baby boomers to spend their golden years in the Sunshine state.
