We’re checking back in with our panel of realtors to get the latest on southwest Florida’s real estate market. According to FloridaRealtors.org, the market remains strong,with new home sales, median prices, and the number of new listings still on the rise.But, some economists are predicting a slowdown sooner than later. But, does that apply to us here in Southwest Florida, as our local market is pretty much an outlier as compared to much of the rest of the country?

We're joined by David Cobb, he’s Regional Director for South Florida with Metrostudy;Brad Dohack, he’s the Qualifying Broker of Gulf Pointe Properties in Fort Myers; and Denny Grimes from Denny Grimes and Company.
