   I wanted to keep you updated on the current status for bank owned inventory in the area.  In our market there are two hot words: Bank Owned and Gulf Front.  Some of the most incredible values have fit in this combination.    Below I am providing you with the current bank owned gulf front inventory on 30A as well as Destin/Sandestin.  These properties include both condos and single family homes in any price range.  I think there will be two things that are surprising (1) The quality of the product (2) How few there actually are in such a large area. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask.  Destin/Sandestin Gulf Front Bank Owned 30A Gulf Front Bank Owned

It seems to be warmer than normal this Thanksgiving.  In my area, there will be plenty of visitors at the beach, on the golf course, boating and fishing.  Red Snapper and Triggerfish are abundant at this time of the year in the Gulf of Mexico. My nail technician yesterday commented that the house is going to be so warm this year when her family comes to visit that they may even have to run their air conditioning.  This is highly unusual in late November. It is already evident that the visitors are in town and occupancy rates are way up.  It is good to see and I welcome you to come and join us in this beautiful area. Happy Thanksgiving to All !

  The Cash Buyer Deserves a Deal - Santa Rosa Beach, FL Foreclosures Destin and Santa Rosa Beach Foreclosure and Short Sale Search - Click Here.   Lets face it, cash buyers expect and deserve great deals.  Bottom line, they can stroke a check and stroke it quickly.  I work with alot of buyers and I have had some success with financing, but the majority of the deals that go south are due to financing.  Cash buyers must provide proof of funds to be taken seriously. Sellers of Real Estate should be thrilled when they receive a cash offer with proof of funds.  Banks understand this and they often reward the cash buyer.  I have seen a situation where there were two offers, one with a financing contingency, and one with a solid cash offer that was 20% less on a bank owned property.  The bank ...
