SYLVESTER’S FISH MARKET may be closed for good, but their iconic sign will have a new home at the Avalon History Center. Bill & Bernadette Selgrath donated the sign earlier this week. If you’ve never been to the Avalon History Center, stop by. You’ll find an amazing collection of artifacts from Avalon’s past, both distant and recent!
70S AND SUNNY! That’s been the daily weather forecast all week! Warm sunshine, low humidity, and cool evenings–the stuff of September legends! The ocean water temperature remains a comfortable 73 degrees, making it ideal for swimming, surfing, or beach walks.
Coming soon! We’re looking forward to moving into our brand-new office in 2022, at our familiar 30th Street & Dune Drive location!
OFFICE UPDATE: Our next chapter begins! This week our staff moved to their temporary location at 2743 Dune Drive, where they’ll remain as our old office building is demolished and replaced with a brand-new building. We’re looking forward to moving into our new office on Avalon’s most visible corner in 2022! Our sale and rental business will continue full time during construction–contact me via phone or email anytime!

DR. STEVE SJUGGERUD posted an article in his Daily Wealth newsletter outlining the reasons he believes the real estate market will remain strong for years. Sjuggerud says “The answer is simple. While this might feel like a mania, it’s actually perfectly rational. And it will likely last much longer than most believe…” He goes on to outline his reasons, stating “It’s economics 101…It’s all about supply and demand.” He points out that there are more buyers (including millennials) entering markets across the country, and “not nearly enough houses to buy.” He also sites Covid, which caused people “to reprioritize their lives,” and the relative lack of new homes, since homebuilders “can’t fill the supply gap overnight.” Sjuggerud concludes “That means the current housing boom is more sustainable than almost anyone realizes.”
