Today on Yahoo homepage

Below is an article that was featured off of the Homepage on Yahoo today. I am not sure what the point would be to write an article where you admit you dont believe in Global warming but warn people not to buy because of Global warming.

Beach-house bargains

By Jon Birger, senior writer

Mar 19th, 2008

One market where both Ross and Keith see buying opportunities galore is Florida. The best Florida bargains are in condominiums. Kerry McNulty, a real estate agent in the Panhandle resort town of Destin, says Panhandle prices have fallen 25% to 30% since 2005. A two-bedroom beachfront condo that might have sold for $600,000 in 2005 can now be had for $425,000, he says.

But before booking a flight to the Sunshine State to start your bargain hunting, consider the risks. The Florida market may have further to fall. Property taxes and insurance bills are soaring. And if you're a believer in the devastating impact of global warming (I'm a tad skeptical, but that's another column), an investment in property on the Gulf or Atlantic coast probably isn't for you.

Not only is the hurricane risk higher, but the three-foot rise in sea level predicted by most experts would swamp most Florida beaches, according to real estate consultant Climate Appraisal Services. (The West Coast and the New England coast fare best in CAS's computer models, the Gulf Coast the worst.) David Purcell, an ex-banker who founded CAS in 2006 with a trio of University of Arizona scientists, views Florida beachfront as an incredibly risky investment. "Twenty years from now," Purcell says, "if you're looking to sell, you may find there's nobody willing to step into your shoes
