Our Beach Towns

We often tell our sellers – “When friends and family visit; they see YOUR home. But when a buyer visits; they should see THEIR home.” Selling can not only be stressful; it’s also a highly personal experience. One of the best things you can do as a seller, is to step back and take a long, hard look at your home through “buyer eyes”. Then implement strategies to ensure you minimize distractions and make it easier for the buyer to envision making your home theirs!

Here along the Gulf Coast of Northwest Florida & Scenic 30A, our sales team work with sellers everyday offering ideas and advice on what they can do to maximize the impact of showing their home while it’s on the market.

From the moment potential buyers arrive, you want them to feel

You might be asking yourself, “Why spend money on a vacation house every year when we could have our very own “Slice of 30A”?

While owning a home at the beach is appealing to many, we advise our clients to plan for and consider the implications of beach property ownership as the first step in their search and purchase process. Finding the right home along the beaches of South Walton and Scenic 30A Florida depends on a lot of factors including; the home style you want; if all the related homeowner costs fit your bigger financial plan; use of the property as a second home, or vacation rental. 

To help determine if owning a South Walton Beach Home is right for you, we’ve compiled a list of 5 questions as a starting point.

[There are many subtle design elements about Rosemary Beach, FL that make it a distinctive and unique gulf front community. In the mid 1990’s as it was being planned, a great deal of care and effort was made by the development and landscape design teams to feature the native plants and trees that thrive in the area and to create inviting open spaces, parks and greens for everyone to enjoy. With this week’s post, we’ve invited one of Rosemary Beach’s original landscape designers, Stephen Poulakos, to share insights on the parks and green spaces he designed.]

Rosemary Beach, Florida is a beach town built for the ages. It holds a dear and special place in my heart and is where my infatuation with New Urbanism began. Having grown up in suburban Atlanta,

Our family has owned our beach cottage in Seagrove since May of 2002. We have traveled many miles going back and forth through the years, and we've created a lot of memories for family and friends here. When our kids finished college and all moved to different cities, it was finally time to move to the Beaches of South Walton full time. Having a Seagrove Beach home means lots of visits from your kids, so we knew we would still see them a lot.

Making the transition to beach living from Overland Park, Kansas has been very exciting. Everyone loves to talk about how beautiful and special Scenic 30A is - that’s understandable, because it is so true. It's also true that property purchased in one of 30A’s beach communities can be a very good decision
