Destin Florida Real Estate- The Perils Of Over PricingIs 2025 the year for you to sell your Destin Florida  vacation condo. Need every bit of equity possible to fund life's next adventure? If so, you are in a similar boat to most home sellers. Let's look at the possible perils of overpricing from the start. 1) Your Destin Florida Condo may get lost in the crowd-- Home inventory is rising along the Emerald Coast, this is more pronounced with the condo community. Ever dropped a penny into a pile of other pennies? Sort of the same theory here. Your property may get lost in the crowd. 2) Price reductions are painful- Think root canals done circa 1973 on the pain scale. As home sellers we tend to assume we will get close to asking price. Hence we will mentally "spend" the proceeds before sec...

Things To Do In Destin Fl- Destin Dog Park Getting ready to vacation in Destin Florida this season? Want to bring your furry friends along? Let's take closer look at the Destin Dog Park. Why is River on the verge of a six hour snooze? Well she spend two hours at the Destin Dog Park! After interacting with an 8 month old golden retriever and a couple of sketchy labs, she is in need of her beauty sleep. Located at 4100 Indian Bayou Trail, Destin Florida the dog park is located off the main highway (less road noise). Guests have the option of the "small breed" or "large breed" park. To be fair my 13 year old pug ignored the rules and hung out with the bigger canines. River had plenty of trees to "mark" and did her best to spread the wealth. The camera shy pug then followed and did likewise...

Destin Florida Living-The Start Of Tourist SeasonAs February turns to March, here in Destin Florida we mark the start of tourist season. With a late Mardi Gras (Fat Tuesday) we are noticing an early season. Here are some tips for getting the most out of your time on the Emerald Coast...1) Plan your trip-- Time goes by FAST on the Emerald Coast. A Saturday afternoon checkin will quickly turn into a following Saturday departure. Make a list of key places you want to visit or activities. 2) Pencil In AT LEAST one do nothing but play on the beach day-- You will thank me, leave your watch in the condo! I have friends that will park their van on arrival and not leave again until checkout. 3) Watch the weather-- Complete rain out days are rare. But if the sun is out you want to be in the water...

Getting Top Dollar For Your Destin Fl Condo Spring 2025Is 2025 the year to cash in the equity of your Destin Florida area condo? Maybe life's next adventure takes place away from the Emerald Coast. If so, let's make sure you get every dollar possible from your unit! 1) Fix what is broken, replace what is missing-- Has the primary bedroom ceiling fan made its final rotation? If so, let's go ahead and replace prior to going live. Likewise go ahead and get that quirky dishwasher a service call. Why is tip top shape so important? Two reasons, A) Destin Florida condo buyers typically live elsewhere so most do not want a project and B) There could be multiple units for sale in your building. Speaking of which...2) Price based on what has SOLD, not what is for sale--Condo inventory has risen t...

Condos For Sale In Destin Florida-Sandpiper Cove Unit 9116Located just off the beaten path in Destin Florida, Sandpiper Cove has been popular with seasonal guests and owner occupants since the beginning. Let's see what makes this resort and this unit in particular special. Located at 775 Gulf Shore Drive Unit 9116 Destin Florida, Sandpiper Cove rests off the main road (and away from the seasonal traffic) near the entrance of Holiday Isle. Guest return to their "favorite unit" year after year. So what makes this place special?  Deeded beach access-- The emerald water is one short key code away. As a resident of Sandpiper Cove I can attest that the beach is large enough even during peak season. And there are PLENTY of nice office season days that mirror the picture.  Two great onsite plac...

Let's see why the end is actually the beginning in real estate sales...1) First the cold hard facts of real estate sales. Nobody is going to give you business without MASSIVE strings attached. Nobody. So where can we get a steady source of business? 2) Turn to the people who put their trust in you-- The best source of FREE leads are referrals from folks you have worked with in the past or currently represent. 3) You get their referrals by A) earning them and B) ASKING for them. The system only works if we do BOTH. Don't assume a happy c...
