For instance, just last month I posted this breakdown of everything you need to consider when buying a home.

As always, it is my pleasure to assist you in buying and selling real estate in any way I can!)

Why Amelia Park is So Wonderful

From a heavily treed pasture in the center of Amelia Island came a breathtaking sub-division known as Amelia Park.  Amelia Park was named after the Island and the daughter of one of the first explorers to discover the beautiful NE Florida Barrier Island.  Amelia Park is truly a park like setting within the city limits of Fernandina Beach, and boasts timeless coastal architecture of days gone by.

The values of the area are built on neighbors and community.  The lifestyle is quiet while vibrant.    [Read more...]
