Dear 30A Neighbors,
Happy Holidays! It will be a different celebration this year, with families and friends being Covid safe. Our saving grace is that we are lucky to have all of the outdoors to enjoy. It is easy to keep 6 ft apart at the beach! Obviously, the news has spread that the panhandle of Florida is a great place to be! We have buyers moving here from all over the U.S. The numbers tell the story.
This year, we have had 6 homes sell for over $10 Million. The highest sale is $16,100,000 in Miramar Beach. There were 2 sales at $15,950,000 and $15,100,000 in Paradise By the Sea, and a $14,000,000 sale in Seagrove. There was an $11,500,000 sale in Beach Highlands and a $10,000,000 sale in Alys Beach.
