I've had my house for sale in South Florida for 11 months now. I've dropped my price to 60% of the original listing price, and still no takers.

I'm in the new section here in the villages and have few neighbors because I'm surrounded by unsold spec homes.
I know parts of Florida haven’t been hit as hard in home prices as some areas like West Palm Beach or Cape Coral. Friends in Coconut Grove have it so bad they have pulled their house off the market. It’s all related though. It seems many are attempting to move back up north with their families for their last final years. Things just aren’t great for anyone trying to move away from Florida right now.
