Have You Made Someone Smile Today?

John EvansRecently I was reflecting on one of the things I love most about my job as a property manager: the people.  I so enjoy getting to know our owners and tenants on an individual basis and hearing about the new baby, a job promotion, family visiting, a new grandchild or other moments that make life special.  I’m also inspired by customers who make me smile with simple gestures that mean a lot, like:

– One of my customers who lives in Washington State knows that I come from Philadelphia originally.  I once told them one of the things I missed about Philadelphia was the first snow fall – not the day after, but when it’s actually snowing, and how beautiful and quiet it is.  Those clients email me a picture of the first snow fall each year in Washington State and it’s all the reminder of snow I need!
– With another client who lives in Pennsylvania, I’ve chatted about the striking color change of the leaves in the Northeast each Autumn.  This Fall, I opened a card from them and a bunch of different colored leaves fell out, with a note that said “Now you can enjoy Fall color, also”.
– Last week, I heard from a client who lives out of state and only gets to visit World Golf Village once a year.  They called to say they wanted to take me to dinner when they’re in town to thank me for never having to worry about their property because they know it’s in good hands with the Davidson Property Management team.

These are just a couple of stories that make me as a property manager smile and make the job we do worth it.  Have you touched someone and made them smile today? It can really make someone’s day and yours also.

Northeast Florida Market Trends for February: The Highest Number of Pending Sales Since April 2010!

“I’ve got a great ambition to die of exhaustion rather than boredom.” Angus Grossart

I have been saying for almost 32 years that I could never be bored married to Jim. There is no way to predict what he will do any day and he somehow always convinces me to join in whatever adventure he creates. Something new I am working on is to find some joy in every single day. I hope you will also.

I found some joy in the Northeast Florida Association of Realtors Market Stats for February. The most exciting news to me is the increase in pending sales of 27% over February 2011. For the last 12 months we have averaged 1,493 pending sales and in February 2012 there were 1,750 contracts written. This is the highest number of pending sales since April 2010. Interestingly, based on a rolling 12-month total the $500,000-$1M price range had the highest percentage increase (over 17%) in pending sales.

The inventory has continued to decline. There were 14,321 active properties available in the NEFAR market area in February 2011 and there are 30% less properties available in February 2012 with only 9,977 active properties. The months supply of inventory dropped 35% from 10.3 months supply in February 2011 to 6.7 months supply in February 2012 very near market stabilization. The price range with the largest decrease in number of properties and months supply is the under $150,000 price range with a 5.3 month supply. Read more
