real estate in st augustine: Short Sales …are they worth looking at? - 04/03/11 09:18 AM
I have been successful in closing 100% of my short sales, and yes, I have closed more than just one.  Condos are a bit trickier....when there are monthly assessments that have not been paid for a long time adding up to a very large sum of money.  With persistence, a lot of phone calls, and lots of e-mailing of documents and re-e-mailing of the same documents because they get lost in the big black hole of the banking world, short sales usually can get pushed through.  Sometimes you have to inform negotiators of State laws, such as seller will still be … (0 comments)

real estate in st augustine: I Have How Many Square Feet? - 03/21/11 06:56 AM

THERE’S A NEW AIRPORT IN NORTHEAST FLORIDA ! Well.., not really, but if you haven’t paid much attention to the news in St. Johns county in the last several months, you might think so. Recently the St. Johns County Airport just north of St. Augustine on U.S. 1, underwent an exciting new change.
