The fact is, we are a destination resort area and as such people buying property here are looking for what the area has to offer. They are not just buying another home.
When asked how this affects Key West Real Estate Tina added-Well, everyone has a dream of sometime retiring to somewhere warm and sunny and enjoying a less stressfull environment. That is definitely what we have always offered-so there is only one Key West.
