You have probably heard about our new Davidson Cares foundation, where we offer support for our outstanding St. Johns County public schools, including Mill Creek Elementary, Wards Creek Elementary, Palencia Elementary and Pacetti Bay Middle School. The program launched this month and we are currently collecting grant submissions from each of the four local schools for their chance to win $500 to $1,000 for a great idea benefiting a classroom, a grade level, or even the entire school. In addition to the grants, Davidson Cares will host local fundraisers to raise even more money to be split amongst the schools. We are extremely excited about our first fundraiser that will take place at Mile Marker Brewery on Friday, November 9th! Read more

Here at Davidson Realty, we pride ourselves on our outstanding Realtor training programs, from Buffini & Company’s Peak Producers where our agents develop the habits, attitudes and skills of a Peak Producer, to our Mentoring Program to get new agents on their feet in the real estate business. In the video above, Davidson Realty President Sherry Davidson is joined by one of our Mentoring Program teams to explain the benefits of our excellent program.

Our Mentoring Program pairs a new agent with an experienced agent to assist in learning the ins and outs of the real estate business. New agent Maxine Levy explains how experienced Realtor Mirtha Barzaga held her hand through the entire process – building her confidence, reinforcing things she had learned, and answering any questions she might have. Maxine was able to ride around with Mirtha to listing and showing appointments and to learn the Northeast Florida area. Maxine says it best, “The mentor is your guide, not the book.” Read more
