“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.

Davidson Cares is excited to host their eighth annual clay day fundraiser, which has been renamed this year from Davidson Cares Clay Day to Jim Davidson’s Annual Clay Day, after the recent passing of the beloved patriarch of the Davidson Family, Jim Davidson. The event will take place at the Jacksonville Clay Target Sports on Thursday, October 19, 2023. This annual sports shooting event has raised more than $577,785 for local charities that support youth-based organizations throughout Northeast Florida.

 

“We’re so honored to live and work in a community that supports our charitable endeavors, like Clay Day,” says Sherry Davidson, president of Davidson Cares. “This is such a fun event, and the funds we raise go directly into organizations that support, protect and uplift some of our most vulnerable neighbors. It’s also an opportunity to celebrate my husband, Jim’s, life. We miss him every day.”

 

Clay Day begins with registration and lunch from 12:30 to 1:30 p.m. Shooting starts at 2 p.m. Both new and experienced shooters are welcome. For a minimum donation of $400 per shooter, participants can shoot 100 sporting clay targets. Those new to shooting can shoot 50 skeet in a safe and comfortable atmosphere under the guidance of an instructor for a minimum donation of $300 per shooter.

 

This year’s Clay Day is proud to support the following charities:

 

St. Augustine Youth Services (SAYS) is a non-profit organization that serves at-risk youth through various programs, including coaching, counseling and care in family-style therapeutic group homes and outpatient community services. Opened in 1989 in downtown St. Augustine, SAYS now serves three counties: St. Johns, Flagler and Putnam.

 

 

Investing in Kids! (INK!) is the only direct support organization supporting the teachers and students of St. Johns County School District. The organization is comprised of dedicated community members who provide support through mentorship, volunteering and donations. For every dollar donated to INK! $.82 goes back into programming.
