Hello October

Image item
 
Fall has arrived in Florida
 
It is one of the best seasons for us as humidity levels start to drop and festivals begin.
 
One thing we have seen this year that we haven't in a while is the return of natural seasonality in the Real Estate Market. We had a decent “season” during our winter months and our summer was slower, while Northern states had their high selling season. As we enter into October you will start to see more listings come to market and more buyers looking. We have seen an uptick in activity ourselves. 
 
As we enter the season of Trick or Treating, thanks giving and holiday rush, remember this is a season for appreciating what we have. Even if this year looks a little different.

TESTIMONIALS

 
We worked with Alexis over a year to find our home.Traveling from New York to Florida, Alexis kept us up to date on listings and was always available to us when we were in town. We couldn't have found a better realtor to help us! We are so happy with our new home and can't thank Alexis enough for all her hard work and help. We definitely recommend her!
 
– Sharon
 
 
My wife and I were introduced to Alexis as our buyer's agent when we started our search for a vacation home in the Sarasota/Bradenton Florida area. Alexis listened to what we were looking for and only showed us homes that met our criteria. We found our perfect home in Bradenton and she helped us negotiate an offer that was accepted. Additionally, Alexis helped us through all the painful steps in preparation for closing - home inspections, purchasing reasonably priced home insurance, etc. etc. etc. Nine months later...we're so happy with our new home and glad we got to meet Alexis. We highly recommend her as a realtor.
