If you read economic forecasts from our Realtor Economists and banking friends, 2012 projects to be a starting point for what is expected to be a steady, albeit slow, housing recovery. Values are projected to stabilize, new construction is expected to show improvement and banks are more aggressively expediting short sales and foreclosures. The mood here in Ponte Vedra Beach is for a stronger year than 2011 as buyers take advantage of the great opportunities that still exist. As the inventory begins to dissipate, prices will ultimately begin to increase, which should ultimately lead us into a stronger Seller’s market. The message should be clear to all the “fence sitting buyers”, which is BUY NOW while both prices and interest rates are low. Ponte Vedra and the beaches real estate has proven a strong resale track record and we will expect that trend to continue.

Our Diamond Jubilee 75th Anniversary is about to begin on January 1st, 2012, and we will be spending the year reminiscing about all the amazing changes in our Ponte Vedra Beach real estate market. Back in the day, our company consisted primarily of the Broker, 2 to 3 sales associates, and a secretary. Even as recently as 2002, the company only consisted of the Broker and 8 sales associates. Today, we have 65 sales associates, an office manager, a marketing coordinator, and an administrative assistant. The growth has allowed us to branch. The dramatic growth in the size of our staff has allowed us to expand our market to include St. Augustine, Vilano Beach and South Ponte Vedra , as well as all the gated golf & tennis communities throughout Ponte Vedra Beach. We also service Jacksonville Beach real estate along with Neptune Beach and Atlantic Beach properties. Our offices are conveniently located on Ponte Vedra Boulevard in our Sales Center which is located across the street from the Atlantic Ocean and the famed Five-Diamond Ponte Vedra Inn & Club. Our offices are open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., seven days a week to better serve your real estate needs. View our properties on our website at www.pvclubrealty.com.

Ponte Vedra real estate prices have, for the most part, stabilized. Interest rates are at historic lows. There are any number of motivated sellers that have come to grips with the realities of the market, and are willing to sell at pre-2005 prices, in many cases. So what are buyers waiting for? In a nutshell, confidence in our economy. In my 35 years of real estate, I have never witnessed a better opportunity to maximize both below market prices coupled with historically low interest rates. When the economy does begin to recover, even if prices don’t bounce back immediately, interest rates certainly will, and everyone will be kicking themselves for not acting sooner. Even if you could make the case that prices might still fall even slightly, those gains would more than be erased with increased mortgage payments arising from increased interest rates. Whether you are seeking to find Ponte Vedra Beach oceanfront, single family homes, condominiums, land or intracoastal properties, there is more than ample inventory to meet every need.

Ponte Vedra Club Realty, founded in 1937, was eventually acquired in 1983 by Gate Petroleum at the same time that they were purchasing the famed 5-diamond Ponte Vedra Inn & Club. The company remained small and intimate, known throughout the Beaches as a boutique operation with generally 4 to 5 sales agents. By the late 1990’s under new management, the firm grew to 8 agents. Under new management again in 2002, they began to grow significantly, shedding their boutique image as they approached 40 agents by 2005. In 2006, they acquired Stockton Real Estate and brought an additional 20 sales people on board, and it has grown to and maintained its current level of 65 ever since. Ponte Vedra Club Realty has managed to maintain a dominant local market share in Ponte Vedra Beach over the past 5 years. They specialize in oceanfront residences and condominiums, single family residences throughout Ponte Vedra Beach, condominiums, residential land and building lots and intracoastal properties.
