Matt's running it but as far as I know his parents still actually own it. They've been traveling the world and Mr. Bullington is doing photography as a hobby now. Good people.

That's just the way development goes, but I prefer to look at million dollar homes than trailers. It also ups the value of the surrounding houses. In time, that's all that will be down there, so all the prices will continue to become inflated heh
yeah, its how greedy development goes. what really burns my ass on this deal was the fact that the kids blatantly disregarded contracts that the dad had with his tenants and basically gave them 30 days to get the fuck out. these are people that had lived there for 20+ years, most with not much money that bought their lots to retire and die there.

they basically just paid fines for kicking them out. bullshit. but, its what happens when a county feels that since about 80% of their tax revenue comes from one man-made resource, they can allow it.

i knew four people that lived there worked on the SML project in the late 70's. how would you feel if something you helped build would run you out of your home 25 years later?

and the whole thing with new homes upping the value of existing ones, well, that is a good thing, but it can also be a bad thing. unchecked real estate prices will cause problems later in life. increasing equity is a damn good thing for most people, but there are some people that built on SML a while back that are having to sell their houses because the taxes are too high due to increasing real estate values.

You couldn't pay me enough to ever set foot in one of those places again.

that seems to be a trend in business owners from this area.

Did it really go that far down hill? It's always been spotty, but you're making me not want to go on the 4th... I'm going to Daytona in mid July too.

In the last five years, that place has gone to shit. Which sucks because it used to me be nice back in the day and now there's a fucking Wings on every corner.
