April showered us with a steady flow of real estate activity, especially in the residential arena.   It’s time to recognize our top agents who made it all happen. We asked our best this month to give their pick on the best value of real estate property out there in the northeast Florida market.  Please read on as they share their “Best Buys” for the month.

 

 

 

Our Top Producer is Bonnie Weinstein with $789,900 in closings for the month.

 

 

 

 

Bonnie -Currently,  the best value in Northeast Florida in my opinion are condos with short term rental options.  Many people moving to the area are looking for part time residence “snow birds”.  With the option to rent when they are not there.  The Residence in WGV has 7-day rental options making it one of the best values in WGV.  The Residence is a gated community with many amenities including King and Bear amenities.  The community also overlooks the pristine Slammer & Squire golf course.  

 

 

 

 

Our Top Lister and Top Overall Sales for April is Jennifer Todd with over $1.9 Million in pending sales.

“Intelligence is the ability to adapt to change.” Stephen Hawking

 

The real estate market has given us an incredible opportunity to adapt to change over the last few years.

 

The Northeast Florida Association of Realtors market stats for April show a slight increase in prices of homes, fewer closed and pending sales and a small increase in inventory.

 

The median sales price for April is $339,995 which is down 2.9% from last April and up 2.4% from March. In the National Association of Realtors first-quarter report, nearly seven out of 10 metro markets had home price gains.

 

Locally, active inventory of 5,938 homes is up 4.5% from March. Many of those homes are new construction and not completed. The supply of existing homes is very low because many homeowners with loans well below current mortgage rates are electing to stay in their homes.

Davidson Realty Welcomes Two New Professional Realtors to Team

Posted by in Agent Feature, News

With over 30 years’ of experience, Davidson Realty continues to be the dependable name in real estate in Northeast Florida. And with a full complement of the most talented Realtors around, Davidson is a full-service office ready to guide buyers through the home buying process in Jacksonville, Ponte Vedra, St. Augustine, and throughout St. Johns County. The office is thrilled to announce the addition of two seasoned Realtors, Angela Strauss and Mike Kryachun.

 

Angela Strauss comes to Davidson Realty with more than 25 years’ of experience. She built a solid foundation at the University of Miami, where she earned her Bachelors and MBA. In addition to being a real estate agent in Florida, she is also a real estate broker in California. She has dedicated her career to helping her clients navigate the real estate market, both residential and commercial.

 

 

 

“Two of my great passions in life are home remodeling and gardening,” shares Strauss. “It gives me an edge in the real estate market. I can really look at a property and see its intrinsic value, what it can or can’t be. This is extremely beneficial, whether I’m working with a first-time homebuyer or a client looking to expand their investment portfolio. That’s what I love about being a real estate professional – helping my client find a property that can become their dream home or business.”

 

 

Mike Kryachun’s introduction to the world of real estate was a truly organic process, with all of his previous life experience leading him to Davidson Realty. He was raised with a strong appreciation for foundational skills. His childhood was spent learning all about mechanics from his father. As a young adult, Kryachun went on to hone his skills in framing homes and crafting fine cabinetry, before realizing his talents could best be used in real estate.

 

 

 

“As one of twelve children, I’m used to absorbing a lot of different input all at once,” laughs Kryachun. “I enjoy working with clients to flesh out exactly what their needs are. My background helps me examine a property from a very technical perspective, which in turn means that I can really assist my clients in understanding what they’re looking at and, more importantly, what they can expect.”

 

Davidson Realty was founded in 1989 by Jim and Sherry Davidson. Leaders in the Northeast Florida market, they have a dedicated and professional group of Realtors and support staff to assist clients with their real estate needs.

Congratulations to all our Top Producers for March & Q1 in 2023!

March and the end of the first quarter in 2023 came in and out like a lion at Davidson Realty with a flurry of real estate activity.  It’s time to recognize our top agents who made it all happen.  We are so proud of all their accomplishments!  We asked our best this month to dispel a common myth they encounter frequently in their real estate business.   Read on as they share their insights that you may just find useful.

 

 

 

Our Top Producer, Top Lister, and Top Overall Sales for March and the first quarter of 2023 is Mirtha Barzaga with over $9.3 Million in closings and $5.3 Million in overall sales.

 

 

 

 

Mirtha – Myth: Listing a property high to set the stage for bargaining room or listing a home at a much higher price than what comparable reports show, or what your real estate expert provides seems like a good idea to make sure your home sells for all its worth. “Sellers commonly will say, “It’s easier to come down than to go up.” I say this is proven to be the wrong strategy to take.  Homes will bring real market value price. Asking that plus 10% is more likely to cause the home to stay on the market longer, generate less activity and interest, and ultimately sell for less than the market. We call that chasing the market and it’s never a good practice. 

 

 

 

Our Top Producing Team for the March is Vern and Deb Shadowen.

Top Four Music Venues in Northeast Florida

April 20, 2023

Posted by in Events, News

Locals on the First and Historic Coasts have a secret – over the last decade, it’s become the spot for musical artists wanting an intimate performing space. From smaller local artists to big-name performers, the area from Jacksonville to St. Augustine has become a destination for concert-goers wanting more than a traditional stadium show. So while you’ll still need to travel to Tampa for Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour, you’ll find the charming and historic venues of Northeast Florida offer an atmosphere all their own.

 

Florida Theater

 

Easily the oldest of the four venues, the Florida Theatre evokes the days of dressing for an evening performance. This historic venue opened in 1927, was added to the National Historic Register of Historic Places in 1983 and still maintains the original Art Deco vibe. The Florida Theatre hosts a wide variety of artists and performers, with something for all ages. Theater pieces like Madagascar, musical greats like Tom Jones and Clint Black, comedians the likes of Jim Gaffigan, specialty shows featuring Alton Brown and Cary Elwes, musical competitions, love recordings of popular podcasts and non-profit programs that offer free summer shows for children – there is literally something for everyone.

 

 

St. Augustine Amphitheatre

 

Lovingly referred to as The Amp by locals, the St. Augustine Amphitheatre may be as unique as they come. Nestled in the crook of one of Florida’s top state parks, Anastasia State Park, and situated on a barrier island, The Amp is an open-air venue, surrounded by the beach, historic oaks and wide swathes of palm hammocks. It offers one-of-a-kind experiences – where else can you enjoy sunrise yoga on the beach, led by Michael Franti, in the morning and enjoy his show in the evening? The Amp also offers two complimentary performing spaces – The Backyard Stage, a general-admission-only space for up-close-and-personal performances, and The Front Porch, a deck for community gatherings and acoustic performances during their Farmers and Night Markets.
