Did someone say summer is over? You’d never know it around here as the thermometer seems stuck around 90. While some parts of the country will see their first dusting of snow this weekend, we’ll be heading to the beach which is where I think most of our buyers must ...

Autumn’s in the air and it has been another glorious week here in paradise. The air’s a bit drier, the nights a little cooler, and the sunshine has returned. Buyers also returned bringing a flurry of sales activity with five closings and three new contracts. We end the week with ...

We welcomed the arrival of autumn this week and look forward to a little cooler weather as it has been another hot, summery week, though thankfully sunny again after all the drenching rains of late. The market hasn’t cooled off yet, either, as we managed to have another three closings ...

Like most of the rest of the southeast, we’ve been inundated with rain, rain and MORE rain again this week. As I woke up on Tuesday to yet another rainy morning, I wondered if I had somehow been transported to Seattle. All this liquid sunshine has done little to dampen ...

Summer may be officially over but luckily our buyers apparently didn’t get that memo as they were still here snapping up great real estate deals. It’s been another good week, with three closings and three new contracts. Only four new listings and eight new price tags. Unfortunately, though, our inventory’s ...

It’s Labor Day Weekend and that means we’re counting down our final five days of Scallop Season 2009 as it draws to an end on Thursday, September 10. This upcoming week should be pretty busy as people hurry to stock their freezers with several last bags of the succulent little ...

Today marks the second anniversary of Cape San Blas Blog, having uploaded my first post on August 29, 2007. I started getting a feel for doing these weekly updates the following month, and in the first review in September 2007 we had 200 houses and 355 lots for sale in ...

Georgia went back to school and the Cape’s a quieter place this week. No closings, but there were enough people around to write up six new contracts, so all in all, another good week. Our inventory crept back up by 12 to a total of 399 active MLS listings in ...

I tried to get most of the work done on the update today, but ended up showing property until 7 pm and Saturday morning have another appointment to show right at 9 am followed by an afternoon showing which will also looks as if it will go late so we’re ...

Luckily Miss Claudette turned out to be a big rain event only, dropping over 9 inches on the Cape during her approach and visit. 50 mph gusts for a couple hours on Sunday around dinner time and a power outage that lasted only long enough to force a candlelight dinner. ...

Maybe it’s all the rain we’ve had, but suddenly buyers are mushrooming all over the place. I feel like I’ve time travelled back to 2004 when it seemed we were cranking out contracts 24/7. This week I’ve had back to back to back appointments for showing property, which is why ...

What a difference a week makes. This week was as hectic as the last was quiet and we have a lot of territory to cover, with four closings and five new contracts. Now that’s some serious activity! Our inventory is once again moving in the right direction, downward, coming in ...
