    W.G. LASSITER, Jr., Appellant, v. Lester KAUFMAN, Irene Kaufman, and Blanche Fink, Appellees.
    No. 88-2467.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.
    June 27, 1990.
    James E. Weber of James E. Weber, P.A., West Palm Beach, for appellant.
    Wilton L. Strickland of Ferrero, Middle-brooks, Strickland & Fischer, P.A., Fort Lauderdale, for appellees.
   ON REHEARING

PER CURIAM.

We grant appellant’s amended motion for rehearing and clarification, and substitute the following opinion for the majority view of our original opinion:

AFFIRMED on the authority of Palm Pavilion of Clearwater, Inc. v. Thompson, 458 So.2d 893 (Fla. 2d DCA 1984). See also the dissent in Contos v. Lipsky, 433 So.2d 1242 (Fla. 3d DCA 1983). Because we recognize a possible conflict with the Contos majority, we certify the following question to the supreme court:

IN THE DETERMINATION OF FAIR MARKET VALUE OF LEASED PROPERTY AT THE TIME OF THE EXERCISE OF A LESSEE’S OPTION TO PURCHASE, MAY THE TRIAL COURT CONSIDER THE PRESENT VALUE OF THE FEE UNENCUMBERED BY THE LEASE?

STONE and GARRETT, JJ., concur.

DOWNEY, J., concurs in part and dissents in part with opinion.

DOWNEY, Judge,

concurring in part and dissenting in part:

I concur in the court’s decision to grant rehearing, but adhere to my dissent attached to the court’s opinion issued February 14, 1990.
