I have had a good experience with a number of realtors in south walton. Here are my picks: Bobby Johnson Vickie Dollar Michelle Joly Peter Stoddard Ron Henke Sure wish I was buying TODAY--it is a terrible time to be broke!!

I have a cancellation but must depart July 4th. Old Seagrove, 5 minute walk to Seaside. 2 minute walk to the beach---gulf view. Great place. www.goincoastalbeachrentals.com

In our beach house we use cotton quilts. Every time we stay there I wash all of them and the blankets. They are reasonable at TJ Maxx or Marhall's . I leave an extra in the closet. However some people drag them to the beach instead of using a beach towel. I gave up trying to contol what happened...

So sorry for any confusion . I did not mean to imply this home was in Old Seagrove, but it was more about the realtor and sales. Thanks for clearing up something that I made confusing by my comment. That is all.

Looks like a very nice house in a good location. Wish you the best of luck in selling and your choice of realtors. For a period of time when our listing expired I had a few offers without a realtor to buffer me from the pain. Let me just say it was not a good experience. For us it is always best...

Instead of lack of good realtors on 30a I found it difficult to select just one good realtor. We have owned one lot and three homes in the area. I know Bobby is right --"It is all about price" but being ready is being willling to take today's price . I think condition is important too. There...

I had a cancellation for that week. Check your PM's.

Excellent heart felt, very moving video!! Congratulations!

Really? Perhaps it is because the offers are no where near the asking price which may well be at or below market value and much less that the owner paid for the property. It can be insulting and hurtful. But I am a person who functions on a heart level, not the least painful way to live, but I...

How about Watercolor Inn or Seaside --Beachside cottages do nightly rentals?

Or all bleeding eventually stops.

Thanks for your interest, but we have a contract to sell it. We kept it in new condition. Hope to close soon.

Minnie, You can read it online www.lifeonshore.com Click read Bobby's articles. It is in May/June 2007. Not sure why 2007---it is the most recent. Date on article in 2008 title-- A Long Awaited Spiritual Awakening. Tears streamed down my face when I read it. But I have lost loved ones...

Those who know Bobby J will tell you he is honest, hard working, and cares about people. He is always doing the next right thing. He cares more about people than making a sale. Maybe that is what is working in this market.

What exactly do you mean "begin intense conversation with your bank. Daily"? Please advise.

YEAH, GO BOBBY!! There are some excellent buys out there. Wish I was buying now instead of selling.

I think builders are like realtors in the area---there are so many good ones it is a difficult choice. The coastal style homes are so beautiful. I always spend more time looking at homes than on the beach. Wish we had homes like these in our area. We built in 2001 in Old Seagrove with Arbor...

Thank you! Your sister was one of those great realtors who always took time to chat with me. Will always remember that beautiful smile.

One must be accountable for the choices we make. We have 2 houses we cannot sell and cannot afford. But we signed on the dotted line not the realtor. My experience with the realtors in Sowal has been excellent. It is difficult to select an agent, because there are so many good, decent, honest...

IMO the homes at Watersound and Watercolor would be expensive anywhere, any city, not even close to the beach. There are very high end homes with fine products, building materials. I do not really think they are so over priced. There are wonderful buys on 30a at this time. You can now buy a...

I totally recommend Moon CreeK Studios! Check out www.goincoastalbeachrentals.com

Sounds like your management company is better than most. May I ask which company you use ,please? Looking for a new one. Rentals a bit slow this year. Thanks

Ren, Good luck to you. Hope you find a job you enjoy while earning income.

Rates????

Anyone use Royal Beach Resorts to manage your home for vacation rentals? Or as a guest? Would like any info. They seem very nice. thanks

Even in this market, I am surprised that old, small homes still seem to sell in Seaside for over $1 million. I love Seaside and Watercolors, but not like OLD Seagrove.

Nice to see this family could keep their home. It is a primary home. The article states he had health problems. Things happen to folks, illness, death, divorce.

Our entire family loves your soap!!!! It is all we use. We try to stock up when we are at the beach(not very often lately). Once you came to our house and we purchased tons from the back of your car. Do you have mail order? Do you still have Forrest Trail? It is my husband's favorite. Thank you...

Beautiful place! Seems the lot would be worth $399K. Sure wish I was buying today. Will pass it on to a few folks in Nashville, Bobby.

I agree some prices are outrageous. I guess the selling price is what someone is willing to pay. But everyday I see listings that are below what seller paid not only in 2005-06(and short sales) but 2003-2004. Are we back to 2001-02 prices? How may people who are trying to hang on and make...

Does the same person own most (if not ALL) of these properties?

Is Greenway Park near the old storage unit area? North of 30a near Eastern Lake??

It is a very nice house. I can only share my experience. I have a similar house near ALYS Beach. It is a nice neighborhood with deeded beach access, has covered parking and storage. It has never been rented, fully furnished, hardwoods. I have been unable to rent it long term for $1200/month...

Do not know how I missed this great bistro all these years. My husband and I dined there for the first time last week. I do remember it was closed for remodeling when we made an attempt to have dinner there before. It was just excellent! We arrived early and had the place to ourselves. I was...

When I was in sowal in June there was a sign at the Seagrove Market for a missing Golden. I actually saw a small female walking across 30a near Sunset Villas. I called the number and he said she belonged to him, but he was missing her mate. This person lived on Seacrest Drive. I will look in my...

If things do not change soon we may see those prices again. I better say something about rentals or will be moved to another thread. Yikes. We had to rent our house, but if it does not improve it may cost us to rent it.

It would be wonderful to have guests like your family. I would not like a real estate agent showing the house especially unannounced. We were guests for many years before we were owners. I always left a house cleaner than I found it too. I feel awful about nice people walking into some of the...

I have an agency and as do most of the owners with damage problems. I advertise(vrbo,seaside times,mooncreek tour etc) since I refer 90% of my guests to the agency to handle I receive a 5% discount off the 25% the agency charges me. I am unaware of any agency that does a reference or...

I have had some luck with cream leather cleaner to remove ink off of a purse. Thanks for the tip about the dishwasher. I forgot we had a stove repair too--almost new. You just hemorrhage so much money you forget.

You are the people I would love to have in my home. Have a wonderful trip!!!!

Oh, I am sure it can happen. Just been lucky with my golden oldies( really black not gold--not that 60's old). It is hard to appreciate how bad it feels to have things destroyed until it happens to you. Like BR, happens over and over.

I provide sturdy plastic glasses and dishes(with beach scenes) along with all the other dishes for my guests. I have had found plastic spoons(large serving spoons) and spatulas melted from people sticking them in the dishwasher. Yes, I do provide all needed kitchen ware. I have replaced at least...

Beautiful area indeed! I love Mo Jr's face--what a sweetie.

WOW! Breathtaking! Got to check out the inlet beach area on my next trip. Thanks for the pics!

JR, "We never bring a can of paint along" :floor: You are just the type of family I would love to have in our home. :wub: Thanks for that kind message.

BR, I have NO intention of NOT calling each group of guests to welcome them until one of them purchases our home!!!!!!! AMEN to all the things you said. :clap_1: I can tell you are a nice person. If a greeting call offends a guest they have the option of leaving. I have been through too...

Thanks. I do remember them telling us about moving 98 now. The mooncreek tour was beautiful of Windmark. The beach looks more beautiful than I remember. emerald coast tours is my favorite part of this website--I check it everyday for new tours.

We visited Windmark in Oct. 2004 on our way to Carrabelle. It seemed idyllic, bucolic with few houses and only one under constuction at the time. It took my breath. After our recent trip to south walton(no computer) I returned home to over 20 e-mails about the recent release of lots at Windmark...

:idontno:

My 85 year old mother-in-law lives on Long Island. She is no longer able to travel. I have looked for a nice place to rent for a short stay for our family on the Island. Oh my goodness, people think sowal is expensive. And most of the homes are OLD!! At least in sowal you can rent a beautiful...
