Not too shabby… Especially for such a rough year (for affordability) in real estate and getting knocked off my feet (with idiopathic intracranial hypertension IIH) for 3 months. Proud to be awarded #3 team @johnrwoodislandpalm
We’ve done it again! John R. Wood Christie’s International Real Estate is officially the #1 brokerage in Southwest Florida for the fourth consecutive year.
2025 BY THE NUMBERS:
• Total Sales Volume: $4.1 Billion
• Market Position: #1 Brokerage in SWFL (4 Years Running)
One, 4 days early. The other, 7 days behind schedule.
What was the reason?
The lender.
Sometimes the money you think you’re going to save on the interest rate gets flushed down the toilet… like when your movers pick up your items and have no place to take them. And then you have to buy an air mattress and sleep on the floor in your empty home, or throw down on a hotel room for a week.
Just sayin’….
Experienced agents know this. That’s why we cringe when we see contracts come across our desk with certain lenders who are notorious for delays. We let our Sellers know about the risk and factor it into the offer equation.
Some people are willing to trade their sanity for a few bucks. Others of us are not.
Rich. Elegant. Smart…. those are the 3 words I would use to most describe this house I`m selling in Somerset at The Plantation. Kimberly took this Pulte Vanderbilt and leveled up! First the custom pool with zero edge spa and outdoor kitchen… then the motorized kevlar shades on the lanai… then all new impact rated windows and sliding glass door. And that was after the Restoration Hardware fixtures, hardwood floors, extended kitchen and California Closets® in EVERY SINGLE CLOSET IN THE ENTIRE HOUSE…. I`m talking walk-ins, linen closets, pantry… heck there`s even custom storage in the garage. And the nature views are peaceful and private with an actual preserve behind this home.
A new bill proposed by Representative @juancarlosporrasfl would let some Florida Homeowners dissolve their HOA! #floridarealestate #hoaproblems #abolish #hoalife
5% cash-on-cash returns and another 5-10% anticipated increase in value over the next 12 months make this investment make sense. #newyearsresolution #investinrealestate
Listing your home for sale during the week of Christmas is not a bad idea as long as you follow these expert tips.
If you’re going to live in Florida, there are two things you can’t skip 🌴👀
This Bridgetown home has both – and you feel it the second you step outside.
Would this be on your must-have list? 🔥💦
