Florida onshore fishing license

Florida's saltwater anglers who fish from shore are now required to pay about $9 for a state fishing license. The shoreline license took effect August 1, 2009 and is better than paying a $15 - $25 federal registration fee. The Florida Legislature arranged for this state's anglers to be exempt from the federal fee.

There are 14 with contracts pending closing and some of these have been in pending status for a while. Of the 11 sales the highest price paid was for an 11th floor Ormondy unit at $205,000. The lowest price was $97,900 for a 2 bedroom townhouse at the Spinnaker. Overall the average sales price was $159,210, counting only the condos on the westside of A1A the average sale price was $153,033. Buyers seem to be looking for a deal. All of the sales this quarter are relatively spacious and some have upgraded kitchens or storm shutters.
