New Smyrna Beach is our neighbor to the South. But it is a remote neighbor. It is on the other side of Ponce Inlet, and this is where our part of the Intracoastal, called Halifax River, ends and Indian River begins. New Smyrna Beach presents itself as a quiet relaxing place away from Daytona’s buzz, but within 20-minute drive. This a bit over 20K residents coastal town is filled with vacationers – 1 Mil visitors a year. You will love those beachside tree-lined streets, have fun on Flagler Ave. Like Daytona, they have a lot of condos on the beach. We drove to New Smyrna Beach on Sunday to look at some properties coming up for the auction in October. Driving along the ocean, I suggested that we stop at Chases on The Beach, a very popular oceanfront establishment with live music and a pool...

I Will Never Pay Full Price… I have known this guy for 5-6 years. He is a retired college professor. He and his wife have bought a unit in condo-hotel and live there since then. Sufficient to say that I do not know of anyone in Daytona area, who has money and lives in the condo-hotel. Time from time he would start talking about buying, and every time he smiles from ear to ear and tells me that this should be a deal. And then a new listing pops up in St. Regis subdivision of Venetian Bay in New Smyrna Beach. Exclusive area of Venetian Bay, all houses are over 2,500 sq. ft., slate roof, pavers in the driveway, masonry. The house is on the lake, absolutely gorgeous. Viking appliances, and restaurant grade Viking hood… The house was originally purchased for over $600K. They listed it at onl...

Last time I wrote about Tuscany Square Condominiums in Venetian Bay (New Smyrna Beach) was in March last year. While the majority of that information is accurate, time changes, and there are few nuances that I want you to know about. I received a call from a gentleman, who was asking about Tuscany Square Condominiums. He found me on Active Rain. I knew that the blog was written long ago, but I was in a car, and I promised to call him after getting to the office and checking with MLS. There were 5 units for sale in March 2010.

New Smyrna Beach FL: Mr. Greenthumb himself, Sonny Yambor of Sunsplash Nursery has gone organic! Fresh vegetables are available now and are being harvested daily. Corn-squash-cukes and more are looking wonderful and have been grown with no pesticides. Sonny has even managed to bring this produce to market at prices that you would pay for non-organic produce. Why would anyone choose to ingest pesticides when you can eat vegetables that have not been chemically treated? Healthy and nutritious and locally grown is the way to go. You can call ahead and see what is being harvested or drop in and pick it up fresh, on site! Sun Splash of NSB is located at 617 Ingham Road, New Smyrna Beach FL 32168 (Call ahead: 386-427-9816  Off, 386-428-7061  Fax, syambor@cfl.rr.com; www.sunsplashnursery.com )...

This boathouse embodies all that comes to my mind when I'm on the Intracoastal Waterway- affectionately referred to as "the river" by all us locals. This private dock is situated near the New Smyrna Beach- Edgewater line on scenic Riverside Drive, The boathouse, dock and gear is lovingly maintained. Obviously the owners, like so many of us who appreciate nature's beauty and that serenity found only on the water, away from phones and faxes and e-everythings recognize and revere this sanctuary. Their plackard reassures us as we drive by to..."Be Still....." and everytime I see it, that still small voice inside finishes the verse:...."and know that I am God." We are so blessed to live in this paradise.

Home of the Monster Cookie! If there is one thing I am passionate about besides real estate...its cookies! I have been known to bake Christmas cookies in the hundreds, year after year just to give them away box after box to the children large and small of baking impaired mothers. Nothing can brighten a face like a cookie...put a cookie in a kid's hand and you have made a friend for life. I baked cookies once with my nephews and niece when they were 4 and 5 years old. They did the measuring and the stirring. They did the placement on the cookie sheets. I did the dangerous part that involved the hot oven. We had flour from one end of the house to the other. That day though, we made more than cookies, we made memories. Those kids grew into adults and I had long forgotten the day but they ...

Tuscany Square Condominiums in Venetian Bay - New Smyran Beach. Venetian Bay is the first and so far the only Neo-Traditional style development in Volusia County. Administratively in New Smyrna Beach, it borders Port Orange on the North, and residents have a choice of going north to Dunlawton Ave, which will bring you to the heart of Port Orange and Daytona Beach Shores Beaches, or going South to SR 44, which will either take you to I-4 at Deland (the County Seat), or will take you to the heart of New Smyrna Beach and the beaches. Going to the beaches is a 18-20 min drive (or 12 if the ticket is not a concern). It is a large development (14,000 acres according to a hesitant developer's representative). planned for 1,800 dwellings including single family homes, townhomes, condominiums, g...

I could write another typical real estate post, extolling the usual reasons to buy a house, condo or townhouse in this unique community. But I'm opting for a slightly unconventional approach. Rather than give you the recent statistics and data, how about we appreciate the beautiful nature, and not-so-wild-life I found wandering around the community one rainy afternoon. =) If you're interested in buying a house, condo or townhouse in Venetian Bay, or anywhere in New Smyrna Beach, or the Daytona Beach area, Lisa Hill is a Dayton...

Bank Of America made great strides in the past week to exit the TARP program by selling new stock to raise capital. Citibank, the last of the "Big Banks" in the program without a clear exit strategy, has made overtures in the last 24 hours that they will attempt a similar exit strategy. The program that will be forever know as the Big Bank Bailout, seems to have accomplished many of its goals, and the mood of the nation seems favorable toward the propping up of the financial system to come to a close. It will be interesting to monitor interest rates, as well as the ability for consumers and businesses alike to borrow money, as TARP winds down.

Monday, October 26, 2009  The Venetian Bay Auction was a great success over the weekend. The Auction started with 8 pre-sales, and heavy bidding on the first unit on the block. The opening bid was $176,000 and quickly went up to the winning bid of $231,000 for a 2 bedroom 2 bath condo. Unfortunately for the seller this was the best sell he had for the day. The remainder of the sells favored the buyers. The next unit, a 3 bedroom 2 bath sold for $187,100. By the end of the auction, 6 more units were sold for a total of 16 including the 8 pre-sales, with the best buy of the day being the last unit sold. A 2660 sq ft 4 bedroom 3 1/2 bath condo, the Barcelona. This unit once listed for $553,900, the winning bid was just over half that price at $277,750.Post Auction sales over the weekend ad...
