That's a rap. 2020 is done, and so many are thankful for it. But in the year, let's not forget that so many blessings unfolded.

Here, the team at Live 30A has provided a reflection on the wildly-active real estate market here on 30A in 2020 including numbers, and an opinion of the what, why, and what to look for in 2021.

Enjoy!
