Florida Homes and Condos for Sale

Sometimes it is OK to ask for directions...

mapIn the old days (pre-GPS) we often had to rely on paper road maps.  Yes, Virginia, we really did!

And somehow I always seemed to end up taking the scenic route.  This is where I also confess I never stopped and asked for directions...that is giving up!

TOMTOMToday I continue to unintentionally take the scenic route even with the use of my genuine TomTom GPS (with a very fake sounding Homer Simpson voice telling me where to go!).

I can’t really blame Homer either…you see I sometimes will try to go it alone because I know the area somewhat. 
 

Sometimes even when I am using the GPS I choose to disregard the “recalculating” and continue on my own refusing any assistance whatsoever!

Sometimes I arrive where I intended.  Sometimes it becomes necessary to turn on the GPS after I have obviously made a wrong turn somewhere or have reached the point of maximum tolerance!

If you are selling your Brevard County, Florida home in this market as a for sale by owner (FSBO) you may find yourself on the scenic route or reaching a point of maximum tolerance!

It may be time to GPS – Get Professional Support – hire a local Brevard County Real Estate Agent/ Realtor®.

And if your Brevard County home for sale listing has expired, maybe your GPS needs “recalculating.”

Call me if you are considering buying or selling your Brevard County, Florida house or condo!

If you are considering selling your home in Brevard County including short sales, email me if I can help in any way.

It is OK to ask for directions.........

Brevard County Florida Real Estate–The post that never got written!

**Brevard County Florida Real Estate–The post that never got written!

I started out this morning with the intent to write an article about something but I have forgotten what it was supposed to be about!  You see, I started reading some of my 1,800+ posts on this blog.

I went back to the beginning in early 2006 (OK, it was not that long ago!).  And then I started reading some of the oldie posts.

There were times I was perhaps a bit aggressive in my self promotion.  There were times where the posts seemed to be off topic.  There were plenty of times where I was “inspired” by some event or transaction.

Some were meant to target the For Sale By Owner sellers (FSBO) who would eventually, in about 85% of the time, call on a Realtor® for assistance.

Sometimes FSBOs don’t quite understand the marketing process like when I wrote…being a FSBO with an MLS entry is no different than being a FSBO with nothing else.

And then some FSBOs reject Realtors® strongly.  They insist on going it alone.  I was told rather bluntly back in 2008 “I don’t need no stinkin’ Realtor®.”  Of course, I was only offering free advice!  [I still offer to assist FSBOs in Viera and Rockledge.]

A favorite blog topic of mine centers around frequent discussion when I work with out of town buyers in Suntree and Viera - Deed Restrictions, Homeowner Associations and the like... Help or Obstacle?    Even in 2009 I followed up with my Homeowner’s Association – a necessary evil?

Through the years I have written lots of times about the 55+ communities in Viera.   Actually I think as of today 251 times 55+ communities in Viera has been mentioned (about 14% of the posts in this blog) including specific posts about Heritage Isle, Grand Isle and Indian River Colony Club.

I guess I have written a post for my blog for today after all.

Although it contains no new information, I invite you to look over some of these old topics.

They are as relevant today as back then if you are considering buying or selling a house or condo in Brevard County, Florida.
