Congratulations to our TOP Producers in December & the Fourth Quarter!

January 22, 2024

 | 

Another year in the books for Davidson Realty happily serving the Northeast Florida community in all things real estate and so much to be grateful for especially our agents who make it happen on a daily basis for our customers!  We want to specifically acknowledge our TOP Agents for their achievements and success in December and the 4th Quarter of 2023 and share with you their most memorable moments in real estate last year.

 

 

 

Our Overall Top Producer and Top Producer of our Jacksonville Beach Team for December as well as our Top Agent and Top Producer of our Jacksonville Beach Team for the 4th quarter is Candy Gil with over 1.2 Million in closings and sales!

 

 

 

 

Candy – 2023 was a challenging year in real estate. However, after spending many months looking for a home for a lovely couple from Pennsylvania, not having any luck, and  just when we thought it wasn’t going to happen in 2023, one comes on the market, early December, they loved it, put in their offer, was accepted,  closed on her birthday and they and family were able to celebrate the holidays in their brand new home.  It was a great way to end the year.  I look forward to a great 2024.

 

 

 

 

Our Top Producing Team in Closings and Sales for December and the quarter is The Nemethy Group.  Shelley and Tim Nemethy had over 1 Million in closings and over 3.2 Million in sales to finish Q4!

Congratulations to our TOP Producers in November!

December 19, 2023

 | 

The holiday season is in full swing much like our agents at Davidson Realty.  We want to especially recognize our top agents for November as we are so proud of all they have achieved and all they have served!  We thought it would be informative to ask their professional advice about buying or selling during this time of year. We asked them specifically: What is the number one tip or best advice you would give anyone thinking about buying or selling a home/property during the holiday season?  Here are some of their responses:

 

 

 

Our overall Top Producer and our Top Producer of our Jacksonville Beach team for November is Jennifer Todd with $815,000 in closings for the month.

 

 

 

Jennifer – The Holiday Season can be a challenge to both buyers and sellers. Access to homes could be limited to buyers for many reasons and sellers are trying to juggle family, cooking and keeping the house in showing condition. The best way to make buying or selling at this time of year is FLEXIBILITY and PATIENCE!  

 

If a buyer has really done their research with their agent prior to looking, the selection process should be narrowed down to 5 or less homes.  

 

If a seller elects to have their home on the market during the holidays, they are more motivated to accommodate showings.  

 

With that being said, make the most of the experience and have a Big Red Bow ready!

 

 

 

Our Top Lister for November is Margherite Myers with over a half million in pending listings under contract for the month.

 

 

 

Margherite – The number one tip for a Realtor advising clients on selling or purchasing a home during the holidays is to emphasize the importance of flexibility. Encourage your clients to be open-minded about scheduling showings, inspections, and closings, as the holiday season can bring challenges such as varying availability, travel plans, and potential weather disruptions.

 

For sellers:

  • Flexible Showing Schedules: Advise sellers to be accommodating with showing times, understanding that buyers may have limited availability due to holiday events or travel plans. Consider using virtual tours or high-quality photos to showcase the property, allowing buyers to get a sense of the home even if an in-person visit is challenging.

Fantastic Finish – Davidson Realty 2022 Awards

February 24, 2023

 | 

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.

Davidson Realty: Spreading Good Cheer in Northeast Florida

December 22, 2022

 | 

Since 1989, Davidson Realty has been proud to deliver expert real estate services to Northeast Florida. The same compassion and commitment given to clients for their real estate needs is also given to the greater community. Davidson Realty has created a thriving culture focused on serving all of Jacksonville and St. Augustine. 

 

During this giving season, Davidson Realty agents have been hard at work to spread good cheer to their Northeast Florida neighbors. “Our agents are true servant leaders. They have a genuine passion for helping those in need and, at Davidson Realty, we celebrate that joy for giving,” shares Davidson Realty President, Sherry Davidson. 

 

For the last eleven years, veteran agent Mirtha Barzaga, has held two food and toy drives to benefit the Homeless Coalition, an organization that provides clothes, food, and other supplies for the homeless. Mirtha calls upon her fellow Heritage Landing residents to help her support this worthy cause during her Thanksgiving drive and her many friends in The King & Bear for her Christmas drive. Several of her family members from South Florida come to support her efforts to bring joy to those less fortunate. 

 

Similarly, agents Liz Pappaceno and Reba Barkley also enjoy giving back to the Homeless Coalition. Liz held several food and toy drives this season in Sevilla while Reba held her drive in Austin Park. Both Liz and Reba were overwhelmed by the generosity in the Northeast Florida community and are constantly taking advantage of opportunities to do good in the community and that spirit is contagious. 

 

The joy of giving back to the community is a sentiment shared with all Davidson team members. Caitlyn Hawkins had a busy season of giving this year! Caitlyn organized and donated snack packs and food to the Beaches Mission House and BEAM Food Banks and donated toys and books to the local Foster Closet. Additionally, Caitlyn has spent time cleaning waterways and participating in beach clean ups throughout the year both with various organizations and independently. 

 

Stacy Cornell volunteered her time and was a sponsor for the Belles and Beaus of the River Society event this December. “I was proud to sponsor three families in need by collecting items from an angel tree and presenting those items to each of the families at the conclusion of the event. This event is a highlight in my year and so well done with various activity stations, hot chocolate station, snow machine, a movie, and letters and pictures with Santa,” shares Cornell. 

 

Doing good together is always a joy! This year, Reba Barkely, Candy Gil, Rebecca Schaffer, Jeanne Denton-Scheck, and Margherite Myers volunteered at the Northeast Florida Association of Realtors (NEFAR) Hunger Fight Pack-a-Thon event. These Davidson agents joined hundreds of fellow NEFAR members to provide 75,000 meals for hungry children, families, and seniors in Northeast Florida. 

 

“At Davidson Realty, we are incredibly proud of our team and their various philanthropic endeavors,” shares Davidson. “Ultimately, we are grateful for the continued support from the community and, as a team, we hope to show our appreciation by continuing to give back and help our community be an even better place to live.”

 

Congratulations to all our Top Producers for August!

September 22, 2022

 | 

Davidson Realty is proud to announce our top real estate agents for August.  Read on as our best for August share their professional insights on some of the most sought-after questions in our local Northeast Florida market right now.

 

 

 

Our Top Producer for July is Margherite Myers with $1.2 million in closings.  Q&A with Margherite:

 

 

 

 

Q – What is the best advice you can give for someone moving from out of state?

Margherite – Since I have done this 6 times personally there are many things to consider.   First – Schools, even if you do not have children, top rated schools bring better resales with the home you are about to purchase.   Price is a big consideration.  Proximity to shopping and hospitals is also a consideration.  I personally drive through areas at all times of the day to see which communities I am comfortable in.  I am patient so if you are interested in purchasing here in NE Florida I am here to assist.

 

 

 

 

Our Top Listing and Overall Sales Agent is Mirtha Barzaga with over $1.2 million in overall sales. Q&A Mirtha:
