Million Dollar Homes or Condos on Longboat Key

What Will a Million Buy on Longboat Key Florida?

Yes, Sarasota FL real estate is experiencing a buyer's market. Does that mean that prices have crumbled and people are giving properties to buyers. Well there are some desperate owners who have caved into the pressure of this real estate market. For one reason or another, these sellers have sold their homes for less than what they owe ("short sale") or the lending institutions has foreclosed the home. There are also properties that are very good buys even though they don't seem to be what most buyers call a "deal."
