Yesterday, we reported about creative Florida  real estate and the $1 million coupon, I just had to mention the Dan Marino deal for his Ft. Lauderdale house with the $1.5 million dollars of  free designer furniture and a signed football from the former Miami Dolphin. 

Apparantly, it's a good time to shop in Florida, folks.

The Marinos are downsizing, which is the new buzzword.

Giving up 10 bedrooms and 12 bathrooms plus two powder rooms adds a whole new definition to "freeing".

Price is currently $13.5 million for now.  (That could change- again).
