seaside: Took a Dip in August
- 09/12/12 11:57 PM
Walton County Florida Sales Report is out for August. Thank goodness it was just not me that felt the drop in sales activity. The entire area had a slight drop over July figures. This can sometimes be attributed to the fact that parents are busy wrapping up the summer and getting their children prepared for school. Let's take a look at the numbers: Total Single Family Home Sales gained slightly in August by almost 20% over same period last year. However, Condo Sales were way off the mark. They were down 15% from the month of July and down over 20% … (0 comments)

- 06/27/11 03:09 AM
Looking at the area along the beautiful scenic Hwy. 30A and the South Walton Beaches located in Santa Rosa Beach, FL zipcode 32459, the inventory is disappearing quickly. We are down to just 14.73 weeks of inventory in the condo category. Today there are only 299 total condos for sale.
