If you have not checked out a map to search the area...take a look out how large Brevard County is! In the very southern portion of the County is Sebastian. It sits on the river and many of it's residents love the great Indian River views. For those of us a little further north we love to head to Sebastian on the weekend...mostly because of Capt Hiram's Resort. Capt Hiram's truly is a resort...with a very nice restaurant, a marina (because it is near the inlet many boaters can head in for a weekend stay), a hotel and the World Famous Sandbar. The Sandbar is an outdoor Bahamian style bar that sits on the river (so you get spectacular views). Sandbar offers a concert stage so you can listen to some fabulous music year round. Capt Hiram's will attract some major artists at Sandbar. Add to...

Mulligan's Beach House Bar & Grill in Sebastian was our destination on Saturday afternoon. It was hot and we had been walking around the Nautical Fair for a couple of hours. All I wanted was some air conditioning and something to drink................can we say Mango Daiquiris? This restaurant is located on the Indian River, so there is a fantastic view of the water! Wonderful views, well worth taking plenty of photos! This is the type of place I like to have lunch at when I am on the road - a place with a fantastic view! The place was packed and as you can see from the photos, many people arrived by boat for lunch - that is always an advantage! We could hear the rumbling of thunder off in the distance, but the skies were blue and the sun was shining brightly over the beautiful waters o...

I would like to begin by saying this is my very first Blog.  With this blog I intend to give you a blow by blow account of the process of dealing with Chinese drywall.  I feel I can speak to you about this as I have it n my personal home.   I bought my house in 2006 brand new.  I noticed an odd smell, but was reassured that it was probably the glue from the carpet and other construction materials and it would dissipate.  After a few month I no longer noticed the smell.  We did, however have a few strange things happen.  We had to replace our Microwave after about 6 months, the key pad no longer worked; it also seemed like we changed alot of lightbulbs.    On July 4, 2009 my A/C was not cooling.  I waited until Monday to call.  They determined that the evaporator coil was leaking and was...

Statistics would seem to indicate that we have seen the bottom of this market and our day to day business is supporting this indication.  Non-short sale inventories of homes here are down in the six months supply range again and moving nicely.  Short sale homes still represent a significant portion of inventory and based on trends, many will end up in forclosure before we see the end of them, but consumer enthusiasm for investing in our market is on the rise and the first time home buyer credit which is presently good till December 1st, 2009 has helped many to realize the joy of home ownership. I also see many people forced to rent till they repair their credit and save up a down payment in the future. This would seem to indicate a good climate for investors able to take advantage of lo...

I put my Customers first and here is what they have to say... "We've had dealings with a number of real estate sales persons  in the past and you were one of the best by far.  If we ever need to use an agent again it certainly would be you..."  •-          Happy Sebastian home sellers  "You were the best and on top of everything all of the time. Many thanks again for all you did for us."  •-          Happy Sebastian condo sellers  "We wanted a card that expressed all we feel about our house sale. "Its not just that you do things, it's the wonderful way you do them!" This comes close but doesn't begin to say how fortunate we were to have you..."  •-          Happy Sebastian condo sellers  "We are so happy with our new home in Sebastian.  It's like we died and went to heaven!"  •-        ...

YEAR TO DATE, MAY 1, 2009   SALES HAVE BEEN RELATIVELY BRISK FOR THE PAST TWO OR THREE MONTHS, ESPECIALLY IN LOWER PRICED SINGLE FAMILY HOMES.  CONDOS HAVE BEEN SLOWER BUT HAVE STILL EXPERIENCED AN INCREASE IN INTEREST THAT WE HOPE WILL EXPAND INTO A REAL MARKET.  MORE EXPENSIVE WATERFRONT PROPERTIES HAVE NOT FAIRED WELL AT ALL WHILE GATED/DEED RESTRICTED COMMUNITIES ARE SLOWLY COMING AROUND. THESE NUMBERS, THOUGH SHOWING IMPROVEMENT, STILL POINT TO A STRONG BUYER'S MARKET WITH DOWNWARD PREASURE ON PRICES. A GREAT SELECTION AT LOW LOW PRICES WITH LOW INTEREST RATES AND A TAX CREDIT FOR FIRST TIME BUYERS REPRESENTS THE PERFECT TIME TO INVEST IN REAL ESTATE AGAIN! I BELIEVE WE HAVE FOUND THE BOTTOM AND THAT THE MARKET WILL SLOWLY BUT SURELY WAKE UP NOW AND CONTINUE TO DRAW DOWN INVENTORIE...

I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THE REST OF THE COUNTRY, BUT SALES OF HOMES AND CONDOS IN SEBASTIAN FLORIDA HAVE PICKED UP DRAMATICALLY IN THE PAST TWO MONTHS. With everything that is happening to shore up the economy, financial markets and home ownership, I believe that this indicates we have reached the bottom and that, sometime in the near future, we will bring down inventories to a point where there will be upward pressure on prices.  This will happen first on the most popular properties, those with the best waterfront views, the best locations, the newest and best construction and features, etc.  So, if you need a house or condo and want your choice of the best available properties at these bottom of market prices, jump on the band wagon and find your slice of paradise now! Interest rates have ...
