amanda ronWe have quite a few “couples” in our Jacksonville, Florida realty office. Now when I refer to couples, I am not just referring to married teams like Pauline and Woody Cake or Carly and Bruce Weddle from Davidson Realty or Elsie and John Evans from Davidson Property Management. We have “couples” made up of new and seasoned agents. To help our new agents, we have a Mentoring Program to offer anyone joining our team a unique experience of one-on-one training. Amanda French shared with me that our new program was one of the reasons why she joined our team.

Amanda French also shared with me that her mentor, Ron Saverese, is very accessible, always available to ask questions and is as invested in her success as she is. “Ron has taken the time to help me with different marketing strategies, paperwork, contracts and listing agreements” says Amanda. Ron joined in the conversation giving Amanda props that she made it easy because of her enthusiasm. Read more

Davidson Realty is Working with The Northeast Florida Builders Association to Market Two Affordable Jacksonville Homes Recently Renovated as Part of NEFBA’s Annual President’s Project

Academy-1Davidson Realty is honored to be chosen by the Northeast Florida Builders Association (NEFBA) to market two affordable single-family homes recently renovated by NEFBA as part of its community-focused President’s Project.  The homes, which are part of Jacksonville’s Neighborhood Stabilization Program, are being offered for $85,000 and $110,000 respectively and buyers may qualify for up to $40,000 in down payment assistance. Qualified buyers may purchase one of these homes for $500 down.

 The refurbishment of the homes was lead by NEFBA President Michael Bourré and his company Bourré Construction Group. “Given the current economic and market conditions, we wanted to support efforts to help existing neighborhoods right here in Jacksonville that were hit especially hard with foreclosures and neglect,” said  Bourré.  “This is the first time the annual NEFBA President’s Project has renovated an existing home rather than build new and the response has been very positive.” The annual NEFBA President’s Project is an opportunity for the group to both give back to the community and raise funds for its own educational and growth efforts.

Davidson Takes on the Jaguars!

Jaguars 005I know we aren’t the only people ready for football and excited to support the Jags! The Davidson Companies have a three year season ticket contract for four Jaguar tickets and we love coming up with new ways to use them. Last year we did a drawing at our sales meetings for the tickets – two went to agents and two to the staff. This year, the partners (Sherry Davidson, Jim Davidson, Rick Pariani, and Ed Gil) are using the tickets to spend more time with our agents and staff. Each partner has picked two games to take the employees of their choice to. What could be better than bonding over football and beer?

Jaguars 020We are also using the tickets to get more blood donors to participate in our upcoming Blood Drive. If you come out and give blood on October 18th between 10:30 am and 3:30 pm your name will be entered into a drawing to win two tickets to the Jaguar/Houston Texans game at Everbank Field on November 27th! The Blood Drive will be hosted outside Davidson Realty’s office building.  

Jaguars 013The pictures are from the Jaguars vs. Tennessee game yesterday. Rick Pariani and wife Susan had a blast with agents Pauline and Woody Cake. They had a great time watching the Jags win!
