Ever wonder what’s the latest news from Cape San Blas? I know I did before I was able to move here full time in 1994. I’ve set up this blog to be your eyes and ears on the Cape to keep you up-to-date on the latest happenings in real estate, local issues, and maybe even a smidgen of gossip from time to time. Feel free to let me know if there are specific issues you’d like me to address or if you have suggestions for improving this blog. Enjoy!

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 the MLS in the Cape San Bla...

  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 the Cape San Blas, Indian Pass and C...

I tried to get most of the work done on the weekly 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 looking once again at Sunday for the ...

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. That's pretty much my defini...

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 this is a Sunday rat...

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 at 394 (152 houses and...

I've decided to do this update monthly rather than weekly so we'll do it on the first Friday of each month. No sales since our last update on July 3, but there have been a few price changes. Currently there are fifteen townhouses for sale in the MLS, ranging in price from $184,500 for a park-sid...

After a string of weeks with better-than-average activity, things finally came to a halt this week and we had the slowest week in real estate we've seen in some time. No closings, only one new contract, a measly two new listings, but an impressive fifteen price changes.  Our inventory took a nice...

It's been another busy week around the Cape with lots of people in to look at property. I did manage to sneak away for a few hours, though, and get in some much needed kayaking and fishing on Thursday. Good to be reminded of why we live here. Apparently a few folks decided they want to be here as...

  We had a water-logged start to the week with heavy rain all day Monday, Tuesday and the better part of Wednesday, but the rain apparently wasn't enough to dampen buyers' appetites for real estate as we managed to have a respectable showing, with one closing and four new contracts. I was sorry t...
