Editor's note: October 2005 home sales in Florida, especially in Southeast and Southwest Florida,
were directly affected by Hurricane Wilma, which crossed the state during the last week of October last
year. Sales numbers represent totals of Realtors' closed transactions from local Realtor boards/associations
within the MSAs.

This information is based on a survey of MLS sales levels from Florida’s Realtor boards/associations.
MSAs are defined by the 2000 Census. Source: Florida Association of Realtors and the University of
Florida Real Estate Research Center.
