In the eye of the storm, it’s still a buyers’ market.
We know the housing market has seen better days, but what if you’re selling homes in a housing market right in the middle of hurricane country? The residents of the Florida Keys are being evacuated in anticipation of Hurricane Ike, as the storm heads across Cuba. This left us wondering: do people still want to buy homes in a region so vulnerable to the elements? Lizette Miller is a realtor in Islamorada, Florida and she spoke with us about the best way to sell a house in a hurricane. Guest: Lizette Miller, Realtor for Coldwell Banker in Islamorada, in the Florida Keys
