Sarasota Florida Makes Coastal Living's Hot Spot List

Once again Sarasota makes a major magazine's list of best spots. In the April issue of Coastal Living magazine, now on newstands, Sarasota Florida is listed as one of the best coastal spots in North America for 2007. Snuffy Smith and I regularly walk on the bayfront pictured in the article. With the marina, skyline and water views, we are always in awe of our surroundings. We are lucky to live in such a "hot spot!"

"Lots of Northerners head to Florida for the temperate climate. But transplants to Sarasota, located on the Gulf Cost some 60 miles south of Tampa/St. Petersburg, take advantage of the cultural climate, as well. It's unlikely that any other city this size --- especially among destination cities for cold-weather refugees -- boasts as sophisticated an arts environment."

With articles beginning to tout a buyer's market and positive endorsements as the one mentioned, inventory of Sarasota homes will decrease over the next few years.
