Congratulations to Our FIVE STAR Agents in 2010!

Posted by Peyton Davidson in Awards, Top Agents

We are so proud to announce that four of our St. Augustine Realtors have been named FIVE STAR Real Estate Agents by Florida Homebuyer Jacksonville magazine for 2010! Over 19,000 recent homebuyers in Jacksonville and 250 mortgage and title companies were surveyed and asked to evaluate real estate agents based on nine criteria: customer service, market knowledge, closing preparation, communication, integrity, marketing of the home, finding the right home, negotiation, and overall satisfaction. And, with this very rigorous research process, our agents came out on top! We couldn’t be happier for Pauline Cake, Juana Husted, Dottie Lay, and Michelle Gonzalez!

pcThis is Pauline’s 5th time being honored as a FIVE STAR Agent! Her customer service cannot be beat, which everyone who has worked with her knows. She has been helping people find their perfect home with Davidson Realty since 2001.Juana Husted

Juana has been named a FIVE STAR Agent three times now!  Due to her technical background, she is very good with details and always goes the extra mile for her customers.

dottieDottie is a four time FIVE STAR Agent now!  Dottie was born and raised in Jacksonville Beach, so she is very familiar with all of Jacksonville FL real estate and is happy to help you find your dream home!michelle g

This is the first of many times Michelle will be named a FIVE STAR Agent! Michelle has had a great year and we know we will see even more from her in 2011!

Less than 7% of actively licensed agents in the Jacksonville area made the FIVE STAR Agent list, so we are very proud to have four of them be part of The Davidson Team. All four of these women are Certified Distressed Property Experts, which means they are extremely knowledgeable in Short Sales and Foreclosure prevention. Please contact them or any of our great Realtors if you have real estate related questions or need help buying or selling your home.

Posted by Caryn Best in Awards, News

DSC_0137Pardon our cheering but sometimes you just have to grab the bullhorn and get the word out!  Check out these 5 things to know about our Jacksonville FL real estate company and you’ll understand our enthusiasm.  Don’t get us wrong, things could definitely be better for the real estate market, but we are proud of the following:

1. In the past 12 months, our Agent staff has doubled.
2. We continue to be the biggest lister in World Golf Village, and now we’re the top lister in Palencia too. 
3. Our reach has expanded beyond St. Johns County and St. Augustine to include Jacksonville Beach, Ponte Vedra and even Flagler County.
4. According to the Jacksonville Business Journal, Davidson Realty is now among the top 10 real estate agencies in the area.
5. Most of our Agents now hold CDPE (Certified Distressed Property Expert) designations, so they can shrewdly advise clients on the ins and outs of today’s market, including short sales and foreclosures.

The Davidson Companies Celebrate 2009

Posted by Peyton Davidson in Awards

DSCN0349I just posted a blog recognizing all of our agents’ accomplishments in 2009, but we have to talk about our staff and how great our awards banquet was this year!

We put together a silent auction for the event and almost every agent and staff person donated something – we got a variety of services and gifts. The most popular items weren’t the IPOD or Flip Mino Video camera; they were dinner at Pauline and Woody Cake’s house, a day of skeet shooting with Jim and Sherry Davidson, and a Cuban dinner for 4 at Ed and Candy Gil’s.  It just shows how much we really are a family at Davidson, where we actually want to spend time together outside of work!

Every item given was claimed and it was really cool that people donated things that meant so much to them, like Shirley Barber, Master Gardener, donating a beautiful Agave Parryi plant or Juana Husted giving an amazing framed photograph she took in Australia. What a great night!

I mentioned before that Davidson Realty’s goal is to “Value People First…Before, Over and Above Everything Else”, which is why Rick Pariani took home the award for “Most Exemplifies our Core Values”. LizAnne Rung always “Values People First” and Cindy Vaughn and Mattie Zebendon go “Above and Beyond” for The Davidson Companies. (more…)

The Davidson Companies Not Only Survived, But Shined in 09!

Posted by Peyton Davidson in Awards

DSCN0363I don’t know if it was the large crowd of agents and staff that showed up to our company awards banquet or the survivor theme that made it so fun, but we all had a great time celebrating our hard work in 2009!

The night started off by recognizing people that have been with the company for five years; Lyn Sappington, Dottie Lay, Bob Lay, Jeannie Sockwell, Doug Duggan and Laura Hendricks. The company would not be the same without them!

Davidson Realty’s mission is to “Value People First…Before, Over and Above Everything Else”, so we thought it would be perfect to acknowledge the people in our office that do that best! The agents awarded were voted on by all our agents and staff. Beverly Morse and Dottie Lay were honored as “Most Exemplifies our Core Values”. Carol vonRabenstein was awarded “Values People First” and Mirtha Barzaga was recognized for going “Above and Beyond” for anyone who needs it.

Pauline Cake was recognized for over 5 million in closings and Dottie Lay for over 4 million in closings. Doug Duggan, Carol vonRabenstein, Ted Tyndall, and Jock Ochiltree had over 3 million in closings. And, Jennifer Todd, Mirtha Barzaga, Beverly Morse, and Suzy Evans got over 2 million in closings. All their hard work is truly paying off! (more…)

Davidson Announces Five Star Agents

5 Star AgentsDavidson Realty is so proud to announce that five of our agents were named Five Star Real Estate Agents for 2009! Pictured left to right: Lyn Sappington, Pauline Cake, Dottie Lay,and Juana Husted.

Each year, Florida Homebuyer Jacksonville magazine lists the top real estate agents in Northeast Florida and each year Davidson agents make the list. The agents are chosen by an independent survey completed by recent homebuyers and other industry experts to find the best in client satisfaction. The survey asks recent homebuyers to evaluate their real estate agent based on communication, customer service, integrity, finding the right home, negotiation, marketing the home, closing preparation, market knowledge and overall satisfaction. Less than 4 percent of more than 10,000 licensed agents in the Jacksonville area make the cut, so we want you to meet the best!

Dorothy Lay is an all around asset for Davidson Realty. Her work ethic goes over and beyond the call of duty. This will be her third time accepting the Five Star Agent title. In 2008, she was awarded the company’s “President’s Award” for overall outstanding achievement. Dorothy specializes in St. Johns County and the surrounding areas.

Carol VonRabenstein (not pictured) has now been named a Five Star Agent six times, not to mention being one of the top producing agents at Davidson Realty! She and her partner, Ted Tyndall, specialize in new construction. They are (more…)
