It's a great time to be a BUYER in Gainesville.  We have all been so bombarded with negative media coverage about a slow real estate market, record foreclosures, and bad press etc.  But, I am on my "soap box" and screaming that it's a great time to be a buyer!!  Can you all hear me?  Real estate professionals need to be advising all their clients that this is a great "buyer market".

Do you know anyone that would like to be in a new home for Thanksgiving or Christmas?  Now is the time to get looking!  Gainesville and Alachua County surrounding communities have so much to offer.  Yes, our inventory of homes & condos for sale is higher than before - our market has adjusted, and is on the upswing! Let's get looking!

I do my best to keep my selling clients up-to-date on our market here, and to put their best foot forward in terms of pricing and incentives.   For example, I have a fabulous Hailey Gardenscondo on the market at a dynamite price and a buyer incentive of $4,000.  This 2 BR/ 2.5 Bath condo is in move-in condition and competitively priced.   If you want a large family pool home with location close to UF - then check out this listing in Landmark Woods.   Perhaps you want a great "family community" in the west side of Alachua?  Then you will want to see this beautiful brick home in County Way, or a one-acre home in Newberry Hills.  If you are looking for a private, luxury estate home, please view this home in Stonegate!

If you are wanting "Horse Properties", we have that here in Alachua County also.  Please visit my web site and see the virtual tours of the horse properties I have on the market now.  One of these has "Two homes on 12.5 acres" - and that is very rare for the Gainesville area!  Many sellers in today market are motivated.

Well that's a summary of some of my personal listings - so now a bit about our total market here in the Gainesville-Alachua County MLS and Board of Realtors. As of today, there are currently over 2,700 single family homes for sale AND over 1,100 condo/town-homes on the MLS database.  It's a great time to buy. 

Please call me and let's talk about real estate!  I am never too busy for any of your referrals!

Please call or email me with any questions about the real estate market here in Alachua County.
