Now that one of the coldest February months I can remember is over, March is
beginning to feel like Spring. February was busy with building floats for Mardi Gras
parades, balls and parties.
As rare as the cold weather was (and we all felt it) buyers were out looking
to buy. Interest rates are still low and pricing is the same. The first time
home buyer tax incentive helped those clients become homeowners this month.
“Snowbirds” are purchasing condos and many people from New England and the
Mid West are inquiring on a daily basis about property in Pensacola, Perdido
Key and Pensacola Beach. We expect a busy spring and summer once the snow
and ice melt. Even though we had a “chilly” winter to say the least, we had
no snow. Saturday was a great day for the beach on Perdido Key to play
Frisbee, take a long walk or search for goodies the tide brought in. The sun
was shining, a gentle breeze off the Gulf was comfortable and the water was
sparkling like brilliant diamonds.
Pensacola truly is a great place to live no matter what the weather!
