Northeast Florida is a great place to live—especially now when much of the country is buried in snow—and 2015 is proving to be an ideal time to settle in our cozy corner of the Sunshine state. Here are three reasons why this could be your year to make a move to the First Coast!

1. Interest rates continue to make mortgages affordable. According to several sources including the Northeast Florida Association of Realtors, many experts believe we are currently holding steady at bottom or near-bottom rates. How long that will last is not for sure but 2015 looks to remain stable with mortgage rates currently hovering around 3.8% here in Northeast Florida. Read more

Davidson Agent Loreal Greathouse Offers Tips on Finding the Right Realtor for You!

Your credit score is up and you are ready to go! The next step is finding a great Realtor. Since Realtors work on commission it is best practice to find one and stick with them. How would you like it if you spent four weekends in a row driving someone around looking at 20 houses only to find they bought one with another agent? Not fun! Some agents will ask you to sign a Buyers Agreement which simply states that you are working with them and only them.

The best place to start your Realtor search is with friends and family. See if anyone you know has a Realtor they recommend. If not, check out a few local brokerages and interview some agents to find one that fits with your personality. You could start by reading some bios on Realtor.com for agents in your area. You want to look for someone who is experienced and knowledgeable of the market area you are looking in. However, don’t let a new agent scare you, they need to start somewhere and most are eager and willing to go above and beyond! Read more
