*A mobile home is only eligible to be in the MLS if there is land being sold with it. There are almost no mobile homes with land left on the island of Key West.

**When a property is relisted with the same broker, it is supposed to be re-listed under the same MLS# so the DOM is accurate. Doesn't always happen. When a seller changes REALTOR®s, there is a new MLS# assigned, in which case the only way to get accurate DOM - which is a critical component of a sale - is to research that address. If you want an address researched, please ask.

Solds Since 17 April 2007

According to the MLS, there have been 74 Key West residential properties (single family, multi up to four units, condos/townhomes) sold since my last update 4/16.

In the interest of getting this data to you instead of just meaning to, I exported them into a spreadsheet and pdf'ed it here: Download 2007_july_6_solds_since_april_17.pdf. The old way with pictures and remarks was prettier, but waaaaaay more work and took me hours.

Unfortunately, you cannot find more detail on a property than what is in this pdf. If you want more, send me the MLS#, I'll look it up and send you the data sheet. I won't make you buy a house in exchange. No obligation, no kidding.

If you do want to buy a house or business or, gosh, ANYTHING, let me know what you are looking for and I'll recommend the best agent on the ground there. I know them all. Yes, they pay me a referral fee. Trust me, THEY DON'T MIND.

It's another beautiful day in Paradise - Key West and Costa Rica. Enjoy yours!
