This week, our ever-busy local realtor, Christian Guerrero, was showing a tourist some “beachfront” properties.
House #1: The guy looks around and says, “But this isn’t beachfront.” Christian grins: “Sure it is the beach is right there, just squint past the mangroves and pretend.”
House #2: One lot over, nice spot… except there’s a big wooden house blocking the ocean. The guy frowns, “But I can’t see the sea from here.” Christian shrugs: “Don’t worry, you will right after the next hurricane.”
House #3: Finally, Christian takes him to a condo with a “panoramic view.” They get to the roof, the tourist looks out and says, “Wait… that’s a cemetery.” Christian beams: “Exactly! Ocean in the front, eternal peace in the back. And hey you’ll never have to worry about the neighbors playing music too loud.”
