Nocatee Farmer's Market
Nocatee has a Farmer's Market the third Saturday of every month. It's a great place to pick up your local produce and a lot of great local items. This is the only place I buy my honey.

Can you live out of town and buy a home here...you bet you can.

With a super hot housing market here in Jacksonville many out of state buyers lose out on the perfect home. I have tons of buyers who tell me they want to see the home when they arrive in town only to discover it's gone. The number of days a homes is on the market in our area have continued to decrease as a result of less inventory. And as we both know less inventory leads to higher home prices. Unlike the national average our home prices have increase about 10% from 12 months ago. What was $200k last year is now $220.
Is there a risk involved in purchasing a home sight unseen, sure there is but I'm here to help with the process. All our home listings provide aerial shots of the community and location. I can also provide additional data like percentage

Jacksonville, FL Shortsale Success
Jacksonville, FL - At the Round Table we truly believe in People Before Property and hearing from our Customers and their successes gives us goosebumps!! We certainly love to help and we love to hear back that we exceeded expectations:
This note is something I am so extremely happy to write. I have bought
and sold countless homes over the years, but working with Howard has
been a great experience. Due to the unfortunate situation of the sale
this could have been a harrowing situation. I was forced to do a short
sale of my property, last year 2011. I had heard all of the horror

requested to submit forms and paperwork time and time again, just to

Why Diana Olick Is Wrong About Housing

My Ode to Diana
Jacksonville, FL - What is an ode? I have no idea if this is one but its a soapbox nonetheless and its a microphone directed at Diana.
Oh, Diana. What you fail to realize when you recount your numbers, when you go on TV and duke it out with the
talking heads opposite you in the quatro-box or Joe's Octo-box is that you, and so many of the analysts, like Core Logic's people, S&P's etc. is that the housing market, does in fact, get local. Super local. Hyper-local if I may be du jour. So local in fact that it boils down to James and Marie (names changed to defend the innocent).

See Diana, tonight you wrote about the 2 different housing markets and how they are correlated but you leave out so

How Long Has Your Site Agent Worked for Your Builder?
Only Having an Experienced Realtor on Your Side Can Save the Day
Jacksonville, FL - This is a critically overlooked factor in how your home's build is going to go and whether or not you, the customer, will be happy in the end with the product. Remember, the home you're buying is built by a team of subcontractors that is overseen by a project manager or superintendant. This is however not your point of contact or your avenue to make sure that the build process and the end product is what you bought, what you were sold, and what you expected. It is the site agent that is your voice especially if you didn't invite a Realtor to be your advocate (which is free).
