It's the morning after the night before when Sushi descended from the Bourbon Street Pub to welcome in the New Year in Key West.
I found the Sushi photo on Instagram where someone posted it as "best photo ever". I took the photo below. Note the two city workers guarding the police barricades to prevent someone from walking away with a couple of hundred pounds of iron. (I had to wait seven to ten minutes to take this photo. Two garbage trucks stopped in front of the bar while workers picked up yellow trash containers and loaded them on the trucks. Two huge street cleaning machines and five or six "chase" vehicles stopped to wait for the workers to complete their pickups. The work crew reluctantly picked up their pace, loaded the trucks, and left. The machines swept and sprayed the street. The chase vehicles followed. The two guardians of the barricades did not move an inch.)
In a few days I will write my year end summary of real estate sales in Key West. But for now I'll simply say what is quite obvious to the real estate agents and "active" buyers who are seeking a place in Key West, the pickings are slim and the prices are rising. Several properties I have written about in the past few weeks went under contract within days of being listed.
CLICK HERE to search the Key West Association of Realtors mls. This is the real website that Realtors post listing information. Viewers see what is available in "real time" as opposed to other shadow sites that sometimes offer stale or dated information. If you want to buy, you need real time information.
