Sawgrass Players Club – More Than Championship Golf

October 28, 2011

sawgrasssignThere are a lot more reasons than golf to call Sawgrass Players Club home. With 1,900 units and 16 neighborhoods including single-family homes, condominiums, patio homes, and Vicar’s Landing retirement community, you are sure to find the perfect fit for your lifestyle.

The 1,200 acres of serenity is home to three world-class golf courses (The Valley Course, TPC Stadium Course, and Ponte Vedra Golf & Country Club at Sawgrass), the PGA TOUR headquarters, and extensive waterways off the intracoastal. So, if golf isn’t your thing give boating, fishing, or shopping at  Sawgrass Village a try! And, if that isn’t enough, how about the beautiful beaches of the Atlantic Ocean being less than 2 miles away from your new home?

Your new community is also home to many recreational facilities like an aquatic center, parks, playgrounds, ball fields for a variety of sports, and a pavilion with picnic tables. The Tournament Players Club 77,000 square foot Mediterranean-Style Clubhouse is breath taking and offers a variety of dining options, an expansive gallery, banquet room, meeting spaces, and a golf shop.

Make a Difference Day Makes a Difference for Volunteers Too

When my Mom told me that I would have to volunteer this past Saturday (Oct. 22) for Make a Difference Day, I wasn’t exactly excited.  I play tennis at Ponte Vedra High School on most Saturdays and then hang out with my friends or go to Vilano or St. Augustine Beach.  But as a student at Pacetti Bay Middle School, I am required to do some community service so I figured I may as well get involved with Make a Difference Day.

We teamed up with Davidson Realty who does a lot of community service.  Last year they built wheelchair-friendly access ramps for homes.  This year they connected with the St. Johns Housing Partnership to paint one of 12 homes in need in the St. Augustine area.  We met up Saturday morning at 8:30 at a small house just off King Street in St. Augustine.  Read more

Why Choose Davidson? Learn Why You Should Join Our Team!

September 20, 2011

We have now covered how to get into the real estate industry, why it’s a great career choice, and what our agents love about their job. The final video in our career opportunity series covers why you should join the Davidson family. So, let’s take a look at what makes us different than the rest!

In the video above, Davidson Realty President Sherry Davidson runs through company awards and explains the family environment here at the office. Davidson Realty has been on the Business Journal’s Best Places to Work list seven years in a row and has topped the list twice. We have also been included on the Florida Trend’s list of the 100 Best Companies to Work For. In 2009, we were ranked number two!

Next, we hear from a few of our agents on why Davidson was the best fit for them. For Anna Decker and Michelle Santorelli, it’s the agent support and teamwork that made Davidson stand above the rest. For Amanda French, it’s our community involvement.

We then hear from Listing Coordinator Kristen Calhoun on everything she does daily to support our St. Augustine Realtors. And, we end on a great note as Sharon King talks about what makes Davidson so fun. We bowl, we boat, we putt putt, we go to the IMAX, and we all welcome the wine fairy on Fridays! The important thing is we do it together and we enjoy not only working together, supporting one another, but also being in each other’s company.
