We dodged Erika, truly a non-event, and hope the rest of the hurricane season is as harmless. Actually we have had a very lovely summer here with a slower pace and time to savor the Florida lifestyle.

We never write about what we have not experienced so thank you readers, we just had the most fun ever! Took a Palm Beach Segway Tour and loved every moment. Read all about it and try it!

Stay cool and have fun!

REAL ESTATE TRENDS

BallenIsles Sales
Florida had the nation's third-highest home-price appreciation from the second quarter of 2014 to the second quarter of 2015, the Federal Housing Finance Agency says.

Home values here rose 9.7 percent for the year, trailing only Colorado and Utah. Over the longer term, though, Florida appreciation isn't as robust. Over the past five years, Florida's 30 percent appreciation ranks seventh. And since 1991, Florida home values are up 136 percent, good for only 17th place. Palm Beach County outpaces Florida in all three time frames - up 15 percent for the year, 44 percent over five years and 149 percent since 1991.
