Well, summer is officially over here on the Forgotten Coast as Friday was the final day of Scallop Season. A good number of the business calls I made yesterday were to mobile phones of colleagues “working” from their off shore offices. Scallop Season may be over, but the real estate ...

Lots to write about as we head into the busy Labor Day Weekend. We’ve all been working hard around here this week moving a lot of real estate; we closed two sales, wrote an impressive six new contracts, listed eleven new properties, and launched a classic Labor Day Weekend Sale ...

School’s back in session so the beaches are quieter but as far as sales are concerned it seems a lot of people have enrolled in Real Estate Investing 101 as we had a banner week with three more sales and three new contracts. With just two new listings our inventory ...

Had a really full day yesterday showing property to several parties all day long and into the evening hours but it ended with writing an offer and getting verbal acceptance so that always makes the day feel worthwhile. Unfortunately, overnight, my buyers suffered an early onset of buyers remorse and ...

Our summer season slows down as the kids here and in Georgia head back to school, so it was a fairly quiet week with just two sales and one new contract, five new listings and eight price changes. Now onto our two sales, both of which are on the Cape, ...

It is good to see so many visitors enjoying their summer vacations here at the beach as we’ve been worried that people would stay away because of all the fear mongering from the media. Thankfully, for now at least, our coast remains clear. Folks weren’t all just soaking up rays, ...

Another great week here on the Cape with clear skies, clean beaches, happy vacationers and folks shopping for real estate. We had one person go to closing, two new contracts, thirteen new listings, and seven price changes. Our inventory shot up over three per cent, unfortunately, gaining 13 over last ...

The watching and waiting continue as we still remain mercifully untouched by the oil. There are small armies of BP contractors patroling the beaches daily even though the nearest oil reported is all the way over on the western edge of Panama City Beach. So our beaches are still beautiful ...

.What a difference a week makes – much quieter this week, with somewhat slower sales activity compared with what we’ve been seeing recently, with only one sale and one new contract, and just four new listings and three price changes. As a result, our inventory is virtually unchanged, up just ...
