In today’s Service For Life ! ® Free consumer newsletter, you’ll learn about some old pieces of money-related advice that you should probably ignore. You’ll also get advice about how to get comfortable asking for help (even when it’s hard), tips to avoid overeating when you’re working from home, and some house plants that are incredibly easy to grow – plus fun facts, a trivia challenge, and lots more. Here’s what’s happening in your neighborhood. Here are the sales statistics for the beach/marina area, which includes: Mandalay shores, Hollywood Beach, Silverstrand Beach, Mandalay Bay, Seabridge, Westport, Port Marluna, The Colony, HarborWalk, HarborWest, CI Waterfront Homes, Harbour Island. Note: Inventory less than 6 month s is considered a seller’s market; more than 6 month’s a buyer’s.
