We're headed to Daytona Beach for Spring Break!!! We're really heading there to see if we can find a house for our son and his 3 to 4 friends. Being Realtors, it doesn't make any sense to rent something, especially in a good "Buyers Market".
We began our search by searching for a Realtor. Our criteria was that they had to be very web savvy, have listings in the area and respond to our phone call within 2 hours. We found the perfect fit for us about 6 months ago and have been communicating via email ever since. Matt, my new friendly Realtor, sends us homes on the market and updates on what is moving and what is not. I am becoming very sympathetic to my buyers as I have changed my mind 10 times on what's most important and where we need this house to be. Matt has been very patient, changing searches, etc.
I've narrowed it down to about 15 houses and I am about to let Matt know what they are. I'm hoping that he knows the area well enough to eliminate at least 5 of those. I'm sure that there will be some that we have missed that Matt knows about and some that we don't even want to get out of the car for. Our price point is indicative of 3 to 4 teenagers habitating here!
Stay tuned . . . More to come.
