VersaillesMilanThe Davidson team and ICI Homes, the premier Florida homebuilder and developer, is planning a progressive wine tasting event to launch three new courtyard floor plans for Bella Terra in Palencia.  The event will be held on June 26th.  Guests will “progress” through the four designer-furnished Bella Terra model homes. Each model home will feature rare wines from smaller vineyards, hors d’oeuvres and live music. Tickets are required, and anyone interested in learning more should email pdavidson@davidsonrealtyinc.com.

Bella Terra is within walking distance to the 18-hole championship golf course, tennis courts, pool, fitness center, clubhouse and other world-class amenities available in the award-winning community of Palencia in St. Augustine, Florida.

ICI Homes’ Sales Strong in 2010

Don_Wilford_Picture[1]Since Davidson Realty recently listed ICI Homes’ properties in Palencia, I decided to pop my head into Don Wilford’s office and say hi. Don is a third generation builder who started with ICI Homes as a construction manager over 30 years ago. He worked his way up to ICI’s North Florida Division President. Needless to say, he has experienced many changes in the real estate market over the years. He has seen it up and he has seen it down…so I value his opinion on the state of the market!  

When I asked Don how he was feeling about the market,  he shared he believes new construction prices have bottomed out and are starting to go up slightly. He said new construction will not go lower and he predicts that construction costs will rise at least 10% by the end of 2010. Many consumers must agree because there has been an increase in sales activity. ICI sold 10 homes in January – and six of them were new builds with an average price of $500,000. This means ICI sold more new builds in January 2010 than they did in all of 2009!
