"When you are dissatisfied and want to return to youth"

"Think of Algebra" Will Rogers


Cocoa Beach, home of Kelly Slater and Budwiser

We should face the fact that I can give you deals on the water that compares to 10 years ago. You can have a nice canal home in Cocoa Beach in the mid $200,000's or you can have a nice canal home on Merritt Island for less than $200,000. This may not be your dream but it could be something to consider.

There are a few Real estate agents who will straight up tell you that it is time to buy. I have to qualify that with it is a good time to buy if you don't overpay. Find a agent who will take the time to do the comps and write the offer based on the market and not on hype. We can do this together.

There was a home on the ocean with 3 bedrooms 2 baths and needed updating but this was direct ocean with a large lot and endless potential. Priced at $599,000, we tried to get a lot of people to pull the trigger to no avail, it is now under contract and with $100,000 in upgrades it will be a jewel on the ocean.

It is just a shame that more people don't find a agent who will work for them and not the commission.

Peace out!
