Real estate shoppers got into the spirit of Black Friday and Cyber Monday and did some bargain shopping this week here along the coast, closing two sales and writing up four new contracts. Sellers listed three new properties and changed the price on just one other. Between new contracts and expireds we managed to whittle our inventory ...

 I hope you had a terrific Thanksgiving with family and friends. It was a gorgeous day on the Cape, balmy, sunny and clear. Lots of people here for the holiday, with this traditionally being when our many absentee owners who rent their homes block the week out for them and ...

Posting a day early as I’m going to be of of town Friday and Saturday.   It has been fairly slow which doesn’t really seem surprising being the week before Thanksgiving when most people are busy with travel plans and menu planning.  We managed to close three sales and secure two new ...

What a wild and tumultuous week. The 22-month campaign marathon finally, mercifully came to an end, and hopefully, with that unknown outcome settled, people who have been on the sidelines waiting to make real estate decisions will return to the marketplace.  We had just one closing, but did manage to write up five ...

Buyers seemed to stand on the sidelines this week as our campaign-weary nation finally nears the finish line of The Longest and Weirdest Campaign Season Ever. Three sales closed on schedule, but only two new contracts were written up. We added nine new listings and changed prices on eight others. Our inventory swelled by ...

I was beginning to wonder if election angst might be slowing things down a bit, but we had a decent week, closing three sales and writing up four new contracts. Sellers added seven new listings and changed prices on eight others.    Our inventory remains unchanged closing once again at 269, with 93 homes and 176 lots listed ...

October may just be my favorite month of the year here on the Forgotten Coast. I love how the air is cool, the humidity is low, and the skies are crystal clear. It just puts you in a good mood. Seems a lot of folks were feeling pretty good about the ...

What a difference a week makes!  Fortunately Matthew drifted well to the east of us leaving in his wake a week of absolutely gorgeous autumn weather.   Buyers were out and about  shopping for parcels of paradise to claim for their very own, with six stepping up to the closing table and ...

As I write this, all eyes are on Matthew as he makes his way slowly up the Florida coast towards Georgia and South Carolina. So sad to see the footage and photos of the serious flooding in St. Augustine, one of my favorite places of all. I’m hoping the storm ...

Autumn arrived today as a dry front moved through the area last night ushering in blessedly cooler and drier air,  with forecast lows tonight in the 60’s. Very nice indeed. Our market cooled a bit as well, closing just one sale, and adding five new contracts.  Sellers added two new listings, and changed ...

We had an unusually quiet week for some unknown reason, with no closings at all, and just four new contracts. Sellers added five new listings to the mix, and made two price changes.  Our inventory whittled away three, closing at 265, with 96 homes and 169 lots listed for sale in the ...

As summer begins to fade and the quieter days of autumn return to our beaches, the sizzling hot action of the past few months simmered down a bit giving us a moderately active week with two closings and six new contracts, six new listings and seven price changes.  All that activity added three to our inventory, closing the ...
