“It’s not how much we give, but how much love we put into giving.” Mother Teresa

 

There was a huge amount of love put into giving at our Jim Davidson Annual Clay Day on October 19th. We were able to donate $150,000 to local charities that he loved. Thank you from our entire family for the love and support!

 

The September market stats from the Northeast Florida Association of Realtors show that prices remain stable, closed and pending sales are down and supply is up.

 

The median sales price of all types of properties in all six counties is $350,000 which is down 1.4% from $355,000 in August. The prices have moved up and down slightly on a monthly basis to stay in a small range for the last year.

Congratulations to our TOP Producers in September & the Third Quarter!

October 24, 2023

 | 

Summer has come to an end and so has the month of September and the Third Quarter of 2023.  We could not let it pass without recognizing our Top Producing Agents.  Once again, they have been hard at work helping customers navigate the ever-changing real estate market.

 

We are so proud of all their accomplishments!  Thanks to one of our readers for this month’s question seeking our TOPS advice: In your professional opinion what are the pros & cons of the rapid influx of people moving to our area in Northeast Florida?  How do you see this positively and/or negatively impacting our area in the future?

 

 

 

Our Top Producer for September is Bonnie Weinstein with over $2.2 Million is closings.

 

 

 

 

Bonnie – Northeast Florida is a rapidly expanding area.  With this comes Pros and Cons.  The impact of a rapid population influx depends on many factors, including how local authorities manage growth and development.  With proper planning and investment in infrastructure, education, and development, the area can see many benefits of the growing population, such as, economic growth, higher real estate and job opportunities.  Northeast Floridia has the resources to keep ahead of the negative impacts of this influx.  Many roadway extensions are in place, affordable housing is being added to help with the high cost of real estate.  There are also many new schools and hospitals being built. With continued planning and development, I see Northeast Florida with its pristine beaches, weather, and opportunity one of the best places in the country to call home! 

 

 

 

 

Our Top Producer and Top Buyer Sales for the 3rd Quarter is Reba Barkley with over $3.7 Million in closings and $1.4 Million in pending Sales.

“Do your little bit of good where you are; it’s those little bits of good put together that overwhelm the world.”Archbishop Desmond Tutu

Jim Davidson’s Annual Clay Day is coming up October 19th. We renamed our Davidson Cares shoot this year to honor Jim. Through your amazing generosity, we have already raised over $25,000 in contributions in Jim’s memory. Last year the shoot raised $101,000 so this year our donations to Jim’s favorite charities are going to be big.

We have almost sold out of teams, but if you want to participate, please go to DavidsonCares.com and buy a raffle ticket or donate. We have our cooler and cocktail raffle, the shotgun, and this year we have added a $1,000 gift certificate to the Ponte Vedra Spa. Be a part of the donations to our amazing local charities.

The Northeast Florida Association of Realtors (NEFAR) market stats for August show the median sales price of $357,000 has been stable for the last 4 months. It has only moved up or down slightly in the last few months.

The Best Rooftop Bars in Northeast Florida

September 19, 2023

Posted by in News

One of the true joys of living in Florida is the beautiful scenery we see each and every day. Northeast Florida is home to some of the best bars and restaurants that offer breathtaking views from above – skyline-baring rooftops.

 

Hoptinger Bier Garden and Sausage House in the Five Points neighborhood is a haven for what they have lovingly termed “Barverican” cuisine. With over 60 beers on tap and a full bar, they offer many fun events in their rooftop space. From sports to brats and local bands to the best darn pretzel around, Hoptinger is always up for a good time!

 

 

 

River and Fort Restaurant and Rooftop Lounge is one of downtown St. Augustine’s newer restaurants, but it’s already a staple in the historic city. With an expansive rooftop overlooking the Matanzas River and the city skyline, this experience should not be missed. Their menu features seafood and steaks with a distinctly Southern flair. Their bar has signature cocktails that showcase the region’s up-and-coming distilleries, a delicious selection of wines and non-alcoholic options.

Congratulations to our TOP Producers in August!

September 18, 2023

 | 

In the scorching heat of August, our top sales agents have once again proven their unwavering commitment to excellence. Their remarkable dedication and exceptional performance have set a blazing trail for us all to follow.  This month we asked them to share what is the toughest thing about being in real estate or the toughest thing they have had to overcome in their real estate business.  Read on they share their stories…

 

 

 

Our Top Producer for August is Rebecca Schaffer with $627,975 in closings for the month.

 

 

 

 

 

Rebecca – One of the biggest challenges I have as a realtor is making time for lead generation.  I know it is a critical function of a realtor’s job however,  a realtor encounters many unexpected things on a daily basis.  Trying to manage and schedule showings, inspections, appraisals, floor time, research for buyers and closings as well as take care of the needs of your customers is a difficult time management task.  Many of my customers are from out of state, that means I am effectively their personal assistant when it comes to all things on the property they are purchasing.  I enjoy helping my customers and take pride in serving them well, so I tend to prioritize the customer service aspect of my realtor role over lead generation.

 

 

 

 

Our Top Producing Team in Closings and Sales for the month is the Nemethy Group with Shelley and Tim Nemethy.  They had $635,000 in closings and $555,000 in pending sales.

 

 

 

 

Shelley & Tim – “With historically low home inventory levels and multiple offer situations, The Nemethy Group overcame what initially appeared to be a challenging market for Realtors and Buyers in 2021 and 2022.  We successfully met these challenges head on by creatively structuring offers for our Buyers to WIN contracts at a high percentage in their favor.
