First, we covered how to start your career in real estate with a video from Davidson Realty President, Sherry Davidson explaining the cost of getting licensed, how to get licensed, and earning potential in the industry. Now, we want to share why some of our agents chose a real estate career and why they love what they do!

In the video above, you will hear from Maxine Levy, Carly Weddle, Robin Rawald, and Doug Duggan. Every one of our agents has a different reason for what led them to real estate and what makes them so happy doing it. Some of them are new to real estate and some of them are experienced. I think they can all agree that making their own hours is a definite perk of the job!

Real Estate is a great career choice for moms, teachers, recent college graduates, or anyone that is looking to run their own business and be their own boss. If you have any questions about starting your career in real estate please contact Sherry at (904) 940-5000 or SDavidson@DavidsonRealtyInc.Com. We are always looking to add great agents to our team!

Many people are very intrigued by the idea of a career in real estate. Who wouldn’t want to be in charge of their own schedule? No one to tell you how long your vacation has to be or how much money you will make this year. Don’t get me wrong…a career in real estate is not for sissies, but what you put in you will get out! You have to work for what you earn, but the beauty is you decide what, when, where, how, etc.

Above is a video of Davidson Realty President, Sherry Davidson explaining how to get started in this new endeavor – how to get licensed and then how to be successful in this business. After all, it is YOUR OWN business! She even takes you through earning potential.

We have career opportunity events every month where you can find out what a career in real estate is really like. Sherry will go more in detail through the process and a new and seasoned agent will share their individual experiences with you. This is a very “no pressure” way to learn and ask questions.

July 21st: Wine & Cheese – 6:30 – 8:30 pm
August 11: Wine & Cheese – 6:30 – 8:30 pm
September 22: Wine & Cheese – 6:30 – 8:30 pm

Posted by in Agent Feature, News

We’re thrilled to announce that we’ve added four new Agents to our growing team of real estate pros.  A warm Davidson Realty WELCOME to Anna Decker, Kodi Merrell, Amber Overstreet and Maxine Levy!

Anna Decker_DSC_1820When Anna Decker‘s son enrolled in college recently, she took the opportunity to embark on a new career in real estate.  Anna brings top-notch customer service experience with her, gleaned from many years as a travel professional and a small business owner.  Community-minded Decker helps with fundraising and events for St. Augustine’s St. Francis House.  She enjoys sailing, skydiving (we love her adventurous spirit!) and gourmet cooking.Kodi Merrell

We suspect that our World Golf Village location attracted Kodi Merrell to our team, but that’s fine with us.  Florida-native Kodi Merrell is an accomplished golfer who competed on the Flagler College Men’s Golf Team.  He joined Davidson Realty after graduating from Flagler and we love that he brings the dedication and focus he learned on the golf course to his work as an Agent.  Kodi does volunteer work with The First Tee of St. John’s County.

Amber OverstreetAmber Overstreet came to Jacksonville from Roanoke, Virginia where she was born and raised and we love that she reminds us all the time how lucky we are to live here.  Amber has embraced the Florida lifestyle, even taking up surfing.  Amber is a graduate of James Madison University.  She came to Davidson Realty from Merrill Lynch where she obtained her Series 7 license. She’s devoted to Max, her German Shephard/Lab rescue dog, and also enjoys drawing and playing sports.maxine

Maxine Levy is an experienced pro who provides her real estate clients with sharp financial advice.  Prior to embarking on a real estate career with Davidson Realty, Maxine spent 27 years in the financial industry in Jamaica. She managed the Retail Lending Unit for a major banking institution where she drove strong results year-after-year ensuring the branch was always in the top 10 performers out of 41 branches. Maxine dove right into the Davidson family, participating full-heartedly in charitable events and company outings!

We’re looking to add more self-starters to our Davidson Realty team.  Give us a call (904.940.5000), send us an email (pdavidson@davidsonrealtyinc.com) or stop by our office to learn more about a career in real estate.

Tonight we will enjoy wine, eat some good food, and talk real estate from 6:30 – 8 pm. We know this time won’t work for everyone interested, so if you miss it make sure to join us for either of the next two events in April:

                                                         April 15th: a Davidson company cookout at noon
                                                         April 22nd: 9 am breakfast

These events are planned to be very casual and to just open the floor for your questions and concerns. It’s a “no pressure” way to learn more about selling Northeast Florida real estate. If none of these dates and times work for you, be sure to contact Sherry Davidson at SDavidson@DavidsonRealtyInc.Com and she will be able to answer any of your questions.
