Based on the preliminary sales results for single-family homes in Cape Coral during the month of April, we seem to finally be settling into our new market equilibrium after adjusting to last year's sharp interest rate increases by the Federal Reserve and the devastating impact from Hurricane ...
Mr. Feichthaler:
I listed my home for sale asking $400,000, and I received a full-price offer. The buyer wants to allocate $200,000 to the home purchase, and $200,000 to “personal property.”
