Advertisements [?]

The first major payout from the BP Oil Spill Fund has been announced and it will go to realtors who say the disaster has hurt their income.

According to Florida Realtors, the 115,000 member organization that represents real estate professionals in Florida, $16 million would now be available to pay claims to real estate professionals in the state.

“This is great news for Realtors and real estate professionals in Florida, as well as those in our neighboring Gulf Coast states, who are suffering from the loss of their livelihood because of the oil spill crisis,” said 2010 Florida Realtors President Wendell Davis, a broker with Watson Realty Corp. in Jacksonville in a statement.
