I’ve been selling since 1997, and I’ve never seen anything like this. It’s very exciting to have so many people this dedicated to buy their beach dream home. It’s also a very challenging market! Despite what it looks like, finding the buyer is a very small percentage of what an agent does for a seller. With increased regulations, rules, financing challenges, and buyer expectations, having a good agent on your side, truly is instrumental to getting the transaction closed. If you have any questions about buying or selling in this market, please contact me.
