Great Weekend In Mexico Beach

We had a little cool snap this weekend---which was quite refreshing!   It's always nice to put on a sweatshirt after a hot summer!!!       It got down into the low 40's at night but was absolutely lovely in the middle of the day---mid to high 70's.

We are back to normal today...still EXTREMELY nice.....mid 50's at night, mid 70's in the day.   Of course, as November comes we'll get cooler and cooler!!!

Three closings in the Mexico Beach/St. Joe Beach Area last week

It's definitely slowed down but we still have plenty of buyers...they are just not in a hurry, willing to wait until a great deal comes along!   It's all about the price!!!

Listing Image Number: 1
Here is a little 3 bed/2 bath home about 1/2 mile or so from the beach.   Quiet little residential area.
It's a foreclosure, listed at $159,900, so I'm sure there is negotiating room.
It's been updated with a modern kitchen, wood flooring, has lots of living space.   The only 2 things I don't care for are, the bedrooms are a little small and there are lots of pine trees!!!!!

A short golf cart ride will get you to the beach!!!!   I think a buyer is going to get a good deal with this one!!!
Give me a call/email and I'll send you details!!

Interest rates are still super duper low!!   (4-5%)

The ultimate question is.........are prices going to fall even more?     My crystal ball is broken but my answer has always been........if you have to finance, I don't think interest rates are going any lower....they only have to go up!!!     Even if sales prices fall a little bit more and that is going to be property specific, I don't think its going to be significant.   If you plan on holding on for 5-10 years...is 5-10K grand going to make a difference?   
Our inventory is low.....I don't think that means we are going to see any kind of appreciation but.....supply and demand has to kick in.....which is really why we can keep the values we have!

GOD ISN'T MAKING ANY MORE MEXICO BEACH!

Just a few thoughts to ponder:

1·  I used to eat a lot of natural foods until I learned that most people die of natural causes.

2·  There are two kinds of pedestrians: the quick and the dead.

3·  Life is sexually transmitted.

4·  Healthy is merely the slowest possible rate at which one can die.

5·  The only difference between a rut and a grave is the depth.
