Pending Sales in Rosemary Beach Up 350% | SoWal.com - Guide For The Beaches Of South Walton & Scenic 30A

Recently, I reported that the pending sales for South Walton homes, condos and townhomes increased 66% in July. (Remember that pending sales are properties under contract which have not yet closed.) A closer examination of the home, condo, and town home sales reported to ECAR reveals that the pending sales in Rosemary Beach increased 350% in July compared to June....

Yes, Ray, it sold for $7.25 million and ranks #4 for the highest price home sales in the 30A area of South Walton. It was right behind #3, which was the "tear-down" Gulf front home in Rosemary beach, that sold for $7.88 million back in 2007. (That house was indeed demolished after the purchase and a new home has been built on the lot. For the amount of money he has in it, it probably would rank as the most expensive house on 30A, even more than FedEx CEO, Fred Smith's, which sold for $9.15 million.)

Do you mean the new beachfront home between Seaside and 395 that is landscaped to the max and went on the market soon after completion? It's gorgeous.

The huge stucco house with the tile roof and all of the palms. I think it's on one of the lots that Doodle sold before he died.

I'm sure that if the Hilton house were to go on the market, the lookers would have to be pre-qualified. I don't qualify. :lol:
