The island is filling up, the restaurants are getting crowded and our showings have gone through the roof in the last four days. All across the property spectrum the activity level has risen. The Canadian presence is a key driver thus far. Both first time buyers and those seeking a more valuable property are abundant. The keys this year? A reasonable listing price, a property in excellent condition and choosing the Leading Edge Marketing System.
