PAUL OWERS is a West Palm Beach native who graduated from the University of Central Florida in 1989. He covers the housing market for the Sun Sentinel after spending seven years on the real estate beat for that daily paper just up the road. He has impeccable timing, arriving at the Sun Sentinel on the very day that Hurricane Wilma pummeled South Florida. The real wrath came in early 2006, from readers, when he wrote that the five year housing boom was over. They argued, cursed and complained before grudgingly admitting he was right.
