There is no doubt that Key West has changed after Hurricane Wilma roared through on October 24th. It was the worst we had seen since Georges in 98, and the worst storm surge Key West has seen in decades. Despite the flooding conditions things here on the island have been slowly getting back to normal. Some families will relocate while others will rebuild what they have lost and still keep loving the island of Key West the way they always have.

For the real estate buyer, it is a great time to consider Key West. Despite the fact we are in the hurricane zone, Key West is a pretty quaint town with a lot of charm and warmth. We pay a high price on insurance to live here but in the end it is worth it to be living in paradise and still be able to see the clear blue ocean and beautiful sunsets.

Homes that need repairs are already being worked on and insurance companies are working quickly to settle claims and get the citizens of Key West back on their feet. When considering a home in the Keys I can certainly help you factor in and research any questions you may have about homes in the Lower Keys.
