Florida Keys Real Estate and Information

Looking to buy your dream home in the Florida Keys? The time could not be better. Bank sales or REO’s have slowed down and now fair market sales are price competitively with what was sold in the foreclosure market. More homes are being short sold instead of the lender going through the costly procedure or foreclosure.
