THE CHURCHILLIAN: COOLER DAYS ARE HERE AGAIN

As the Palm Beach County housing market cools faster than hot fudge on a Carvel ice cream sundae, more and more houses are on -- and staying on -- the market. Here on Churchill Road, there are five houses for sale (see photos below) between Dixie Highway and the Intracoastal Waterway.
The Churchillian's Real Estate Special Investigative Team interviewed dozens -- well, not that many -- real estate experts. We asked them for an explanation of why the boom is busted and how long this real estate ice age will last.
But it wasn't until we interviewed local Real Estate expert Ginger DiPaolo that we got real answers.

GINGER DIPAOLO, REALTOR,
PALM BEACH COUNTY

Ginger recently obtained her Real Estate License and operates from a pool-front office on Churchill Road. She is known for a keen eye for residential real estate and for sniffing out building trends.
She also likes to eat old socks.
"Listen, pal, it don't take a seeing eye dog to see this crash coming," said Ginger, lounging with a cold one on a recent afternoon. "Too many houses, not enough buyers. It ain't brain surgery."
When asked for a real estate buying tip, Ginger leaned over and whispered two words:
"Dog parks."
