If you have been sitting around waiting for the time to buy to get even better than it already was, then it is really time to stop waiting. Experts have been saying that “now” is the time to buy for the past year, and all signs indicate a recovering market that will only continue to improve over the next coming months.

There are some people who really enjoy a good movie. We all have friends like this, who head out to the movies week after week to catch the latest blockbuster in the theaters. When we head out to trivia night, they are the ones who know the ins and outs of the movies and actors. And many of those movie lovers have a film or two that stays incredibly close to their heart. Sometimes, those films become worth their weight in gold—particularly when a fan turns a multi-million dollar mansion into a commemorative piece worth an Oscar on its own.
This week it was announced that the SEC will bring the women’s basketball tournament to Jacksonville in the spring of 2016. This is exciting news for the city of Jacksonville, who ever since the Super Bowl in 2000 has been making constant improvements to the sporting facilities and accommodations and has been bidding for other large sporting events to come to the First Coast.
Recently, the United States Census Bureau released the population estimates for the nation’s largest cities, and it would appear that Jacksonville is getting passed in the population department by a good handful of towns and cities across the country. The reason for this may be due to the many foreclosures in Jacksonville, which could have artificially reduced the population numbers for the First Coast over the past several years. However, with as many property sales in Jacksonville as there are, we can expect our city to continue to grow and to regain its former population level in no time at all.
Michael J. Fox will be among the speakers at a Florida Forum that will benefit the Wolfson Children’s Hospital this coming October.

Fox has been in the media periodically making speeches about medical research and funding for uncured diseases.

Property sales in Jacksonville are looking strong as we head into the summer season, but not all the news coming out of Jacksonville is looking as great. Of course—it all depends on the way you look at it. Several years ago Jacksonville was considered the worst city in the country for pedestrians. As of this week, those rankings are out again and Jacksonville has improved—at least in the rankings.
Property sales in Jacksonville are booming. The First Coast is filled with opportunity for investment property income, and the neighborhoods of Riverside and Avondale are especially great for rental property opportunities.

Following One Spark, there are a lot of people who have their attention turned to the urban core at the moment. This is an exciting time for downtown Jacksonville, especially in regards to real estate development and property sales. There are a decent amount of improvement projects that are underway at the moment, and this is exciting news. New projects means new opportunities for the development and growth of downtown, which has earned a special place in our hearts, as it is the heart of the First Coast.
Jacksonville is looked at as one of the hottest real estate markets in the country right now, winning the title of the foreclosure capital of the entire United States. But what does this mean for the average Jacksonville resident who is hoping to get into the housing market? It is actually great news!

Don’t be surprised if your new property sale in Jacksonville gets a visit from an Amazon delivery drone next year. That is, if Amazon’s plans are able to move forward as currently planned. The multi-billion dollar online company announced at the end of last year that they are indeed experimenting with drones, and what is more, Jacksonville is going to be one of their test markets.
Jacksonville is a large city–the largest in the country when you measure by square footage. This means that there are a lot of people who live in Jacksonville, and when you put a lot of people in one area, then you are more likely to see higher crime rates.
Whether you recently purchased a traditional property sale in Jacksonville or have invested in a Florida foreclosure, there is one thing that you are likely going to encounter—home repairs. Even the most fixed up model home is hiding a few scratches and dents somewhere within the couple hundred square feet of living space. After spending a great deal of money on your home while purchasing your property sale or foreclosure, the last thing you will want to do is contact a contractor when the smallest things go wrong. But that doesn’t mean you are up for ignoring the blemishes as they make themselves known.
What’s for dinner tonight? This is something that most of us ask each other just about every day of the week, and more often than we may prefer, the answer usually comes from a take-out menu or drive-thru window. Life gets busy, and that makes it incredibly difficult to find a chance to learn new recipes and cook a healthy dinner for your family. However, the lack of time to prepare a fresh dinner doesn’t mean that your family is left with burgers, fries and pizza, yet again.
For years we have heard a lot of talk about how great of a market it is right now
for buyers. This is still true, but slowly and surely the market is making leaps and
bounds. With every month that passes by we hear about how property sales in
Jacksonville are getting more and more expensive. A lot of people are unsure as to how fast prices will continue to rise over the next several months and even over the next couple of years.

Riverside is officially one of Jacksonville’s most sought after neighborhoods to buy property sales, and not everyone who is buying is looking to live in the unique historic district.
According to housing experts, home prices in Riverside are expected to increase by as much as 8 percent over the course of 2014. This is a hefty increase, especially in relation to housing prices in other areas of Jacksonville.
Jacksonville is by no means a small town. In fact, by square footage alone our first coast ranks as the largest city in the whole country. Yet, there is still so much about jacksonville that preserves that small town feel. The few choices in fine night – life establishments downtown make that easy to see.
However, believe it or not, this is not the way jacksonville used to be. There is a rich history of fun places to spend your free moments across the first coast, and now there is a new bar in town to celebrate part of that history.
If you are looking for property sales in Jacksonville, then you have probably already been to the bank to talk about mortgage rates.

It’s not a joke –buying a house can get stressful. As you go around from neighborhood to neighborhood comparing property sales in Jacksonville, you may quickly grow more in the mood to start pulling your own hair out than to inspect the size of another bedroom.

All across the world, people are drawn to historic communities so that they can live a bit of their own history. This is just as true in the United States as it is in the older parts of Europe. People gravitate towards the old Victorian style mansions and plantation homes in the New England and Southern areas, respectively. However, despite how grand and old any of those communities are, none hold the distinction of being the oldest in America. That privilege belongs to the First Coast of Florida—including St. Augustine and Jacksonville.

Life under the bridge hasn’t been as lively over the past couple of months as the Riverside Arts Market took their annual break from the festivities of RAM and left us with the weekly skeleton of a show that is winter RAM.

One of the advantages of buying a property sale in Jacksonville or finding rental property management in Riverside or Avondale is being within walking distance of this fun market!
