Will Rogers on Real Estate"...out here I had been putting what little money I had in Ocean Frontage, for the sole reason that there was only so much of it and no more, and that they wasnt making any more..."

This is the most "famous" of the Will Rogers quotes on land or real estate.) Closer to home... I'm sure you've heard prices are way up.
