St Augustine Real Estate Information

Jacksonville - is one of the fasting growing cities in Florida. Our housing activity has slowed some what but homes sales are picking up. It's a great time to buy with interest rates still low and home prices stabilizing. Homes are selling at approximately 5% lower than ask price. Properly preparing and pricing the home for sale continues to be important because buyers are well informed and know the market. The average price is hard to determine in Jacksonville because the area is so large and there are so many different communities. Communities are springing up all over Jacksonville. Some of our areas of town include: Mandarin, San Jose, Southside, Westside, Northside, Baymeadows, Julington Creek, Argyle, and of course the beaches, Fernandina Beach, Atlantic Beach, Neptune Beach, Jacksonville Beach, Ponte Vedra Beach and Vilano Beach.
