Amendment 4....It's all the buzz....
You’ve seen the signs all over; what do you think? How will you vote on Amendment 4 on November 2nd? It is only a few days away. At first glance, Amendment 4 seems to give more power to the voters. This seems innocuous, doesn’t it? Isn’t that just what America has been built on? Democracy for the people, by the people. What could be wrong with this? Opponents are calling it the “Vote on Everything” initiative. They are saying that Amendment 4 advocates just want to stop growth at any cost and turn development projects into political campaigns for the benefit of special interest groups.

 Roughly a 3.5 hour drive away on the other side of the state sits the gorgeous beach town of Sarasota, Florida. This is a great place to unwind your knots and sit on the beach listening to the soothing waves of the Gulf of Mexico. John Ringling, the circus mogul, developed much of Sarasota and is responsible for creating a rich arts and cultural scene. People from the northeast who are used to big city amenities enjoy those same luxuries in Sarasota yet found in a smaller town.

Sarasota, Florida real estate is very diverse. One can find a palatial waterfront estate, a chic condo downtown, a beachfront studio for a weekend getaways, a golf course villa with majestic vistas or a luxurious penthouse condo overlooking the famous Siesta Key beach.
