Davidson Realty is proud to welcome new faces to its team of real estate experts. “At Davidson Realty, we are passionate about serving people above everything else. Our commitment to serving both in real estate and the community sets us apart,” shares Davidson Realty President, Sherry Davidson. Davidson Realty is delighted to introduce two new members to the family!

 

 

Jessie Forga

Minnesota native, Jessie Forga has resided in St. Augustine, Florida since 2018. With a passion for serving the area, Jessie is ready to help with your home buying and selling needs. As a proud member of Davidson Realty, Jessie carries the values of hard work, integrity, and outstanding client service into everything she does.

 

When Jessie isn’t making homeownership dreams come true for her clients, she enjoys spending time watching her two children play sports or exploring the area with her family. Her daughter, Ainsley, plays softball and does weightlifting while her son, Lachlan, plays on his school baseball team and on a travel team.

 

Jane Dulisse

Jane Dulisse was born in Burlington, Wisconsin, and grew up on an agricultural farm surrounded by dairies and vast amounts of open land. This was instrumental in developing her strong and determined work ethic that she touts to this day.

 

Upon graduating, a move to California was imminent, as she wanted to be a part of big city life and the new up-and-coming boom of business that was happening there.

 

Jane started her career in the mid-1980s selling and listing residential properties in the San Jose, California area. Starting her business on the west coast opened her eyes to a whole new knowledge of real estate in the fast-paced life in California.

 

Several years went by, business was exceptional, and homesickness set in. You can’t take the country out of the country girl, sooo..

 

After moving back to Wisconsin, she acquired her new real estate license. Over the next twenty years, Jane expanded her real estate knowledge to include commercial, business, and vacant land transactions, in addition to the residential market.

 

As time marched on, another move brought Jane to St. Augustine, Florida. Loving real estate she could not resist acquiring her Florida Sales Associate License.

 

Jane is very committed to community involvement in her area. At the World of Golf Cascades community center, she is part of the events committee, beautification club, and assists in the pottery and ceramics studio.

 

Currently, Jane and her husband live in World of Golf Villages and love the idea that they will never shovel snow from their driveway or sidewalk again. They also love knowing that they can golf, go to the beach, and enjoy outdoor activities year-round without wearing a parka. Florida is truly a great place to live, work, and play.

 

Jane enjoys working with clients to help them find the perfect home, business, commercial building, or parcel of land to build the dream house they’ve always wanted.

 

Davidson Realty has the perfect tools needed for her to list, market, and sell your property with as little disruption to your life as possible. Jane looks forward to meeting and working with you. Your satisfaction is our main concern and what we strive for.

Congratulations to all our Top Producers for February 2023!

February 2023 continues to be active in the northeast Florida real estate world especially here at Davidson Realty.  Our team continues to be at the forefront helping our customers buy and sell all types of property.  We want to congratulate our TOP Producers for a successful February!  As we spring forward into March, we thought we would ask our top performers for their favorite top spring break “staycation” spots in our area.  Please read on for their “go to” recommendations!

 

 

 

Our Top Producer and Top Lister for February is Bonnie Weinstein with over $1.1 Million in closings.

 

 

 

 

Bonnie – My husband and I believe in staycations! Whenever we find time to take a long weekend, we book an oceanfront room on St. Augustine beach. We come home feeling relaxed and refreshed. However, staycations are not the only way we enjoy the beautiful Old City. Dinner outings in downtown St. Augustine are a classic. My favorite spots to grab a bite are Casa Reina, when I am in the mood for the best tacos in town, and The Raintree, when I am looking for a moonlit date night. Whatever I am doing, I am always happy to be doing it in St Augustine!!

Fantastic Finish – Davidson Realty 2022 Awards

February 24, 2023

Posted by in Awards, Events, News, Staff, Top Agents

Each year, the Davidson Realty family feels a renewed sense of gratitude for the Northeast Florida community and each other. In addition to providing expert real expert services to the Northeast Florida community, Davidson Realty held more than thirty charitable and customer appreciation events in 2022, including the Davidson Cares Clay Day event which raised more than $100,000 for local organizations. The 2022 Davidson Realty calendar stayed full with more than twenty-eight training sessions, twenty-six sales meetings, eighteen bible studies, twelve birthday celebrations, and ten pizza and notes sessions. Davidson Realty also proudly welcomed ten new agents to the brokerage. 

 

The annual Davidson Realty Awards Banquet is a special night dedicated to celebrating and reflecting on all that was achieved in the past year. This year, Davidson Realty agents and staff voted for a banquet theme of “Party Through the Decades” and everyone was inspired to dress up accordingly for the occasion. The Tringali Barn in St. Augustine, Florida was decorated with centerpieces and party favors from the 20s, 50s, 60s, 70s, and 80s, including lifesize Rubix Cubes and old-fashion car cut outs. The party featured a popcorn and candy bar, build your own root beer float station, Italian food and desserts, and a custom decades cake from Cinottis. A big thank you to the awards committee: Andrea Gallagher, Matt Burkhart, and Mirtha Barzaga who spent months creatively planning. On the day of the event, the committee had additional help and support from Liz Pappaceno and Andrea’s parents (Mike and Mary DelPrete). It gives us great pleasure to acknowledge the hardworking agents and their accomplishments in 2022.

Congratulations to all our Top Producers for January 2023!

February 20, 2023

Posted by in Top Agents

January 2023 has started out with a bang.  Our team is hard at work selling lots of real estate as usual.  We want to congratulate our TOP Producers for a successful January!  Our top performers have years and years of expertise and have seen their fair share of some pretty crazy shake of the head or laugh out loud moments.  Please read on as they share the funniest, zaniest, or most off the wall experiences they have had in their real estate business.

 

 

 

 

Our Top Producer and Top Overall Sales Agent for January is Mirtha Barzaga with $5 Million in closings.

 

 

 

Mirtha – Do you want to hear about the time I walked into a house that was supposed to be unoccupied and a couple of teenagers one being a relative of the seller decided to have a little afternoon delight in the uncle’s house while he was out of town?

 

Or maybe not, I’ll tell you about the Gopher Tortoise instead.

 

About 5 years ago I had to relocate a gopher tortoise larger than 2 feet out from under a house I had for sale which backed up to conservation.  The tortoise had created a tunnel under the house that went all the way from the front to the back.

These tortoises are a protected species and I had to go through the wildlife department to obtain the protocol that was involved in relocating them.  We had to hire someone licensed to catch it and relocate it.  After that we had to get a structural engineering company to come out to the house to do a sonogram study in order to figure out if the foundation had been compromised and to know how much of the tunnel had to be filled in with concrete.

This was a very lengthy process not to mention costly in getting this entire incident resolved.

I guess you can say there is never a dull moment in Real Estate.

 

 

 

 

 

Our Top Producing and Top Sales Team for the month is The Nemethy Group with Shelley and Tim Nemethy with $750,000 in closings.

 

 

 

Shelley and Tim – Having been Realtors for many years, the zany stories seem to flow in new frontiers! It’s difficult to narrow in on just one, so we have created a Nemethy Group poem. 

 

A beep awakes the slumbering team as their email takes off with problems and pleas.

 

“Good morning!” says one. “I have a slight problem. A tree has fallen overnight and a roofer I’m calling!”

With the closing scheduled and the walk through approaching, mother nature had other plans with a tree now encroaching!

Congratulations to all our Top Producers for December & the Fourth Quarter in 2022!

January 25, 2023

Posted by in Top Agents

Happy New Year!  We hope 2023 will be your best year ever.

 

We want to congratulate our Top Producers for December and the 4th quarter of 2022!  We are very proud of all their personal and professional accomplishments and can’t wait to see what they achieve in 2023.

 

Please read on as the share their personal take and professional advice for anyone just starting the process of buying or selling a home in 2023.

 

Our Top Producer for December is Ron Savarese with $1.4 Million in closings. 

 

Ron – My best advice for anyone starting out is to find the right real estate agent professional to help navigate the home selling or buying process.  Being educated in market conditions, inventory, financing options, to name just a few, whether you are a buyer or seller is critical and necessary when trying to make the best decision in any real estate transaction.   Also having a skilled local professional manage the process and handle the volume of details involved is more important than ever.

 

 

 

Our Top Producing and Top Sales Team for December and the quarter is The Nemethy Group with Shelley and Tim Nemethy.  They closed over $3.6 million for the quarter.

 

Shelley & Tim – The decision to buy or sell a home is exciting and opens up so many possibilities for the buyer and seller. Just like any important decision in life, one should take the time to do their homework so the experience can be positive and successful! It is so much more involved than just putting a sign in your yard or calling a name on the sign of the home of your dreams. A trusted and experienced Realtor can offer a wealth of knowledge and advice along with helping you navigate through the process. There is so much to consider such as, accurate pricing, smart negotiating, savvy lending, prequalification, contract knowledge, inspections, professional pictures, legal timelines, and title work just to name some of the things you would be experiencing in buying or selling.  Remember, we do this every day, so ask a professional when you are ready to begin!
