To my friends, neighbors, and clients across the Emerald Coast,

I’ve been thinking about all of you since Hurricane Isaias came through. Our home took a pretty hard hit too, so I know how exhausting these past few days have been. The cleanup, the stress, waiting on power and insurance. It’s a lot.

So many of our neighbors are still without power or haven’t gotten the help they need yet. If that’s you, or someone you know, please reach out. I’m happy to connect you with a trusted roofer, tree service, or contractor, help you sort through an insurance claim, check on a home if you’re out of town, or just lend an extra set of hands.

No sales pitch. I just want to make sure everyone is okay. Call or text me anytime at 850.699.8891, or send me a message here.

We’re a strong community, and we’ll get through this together. Stay safe, everyone. 🙏

STOP WAITING FOR THE MARKET TO “GET BETTER.”
Start looking at the data. 👀📊

If you’ve been waiting for the perfect time to buy or sell on the Emerald Coast, the latest numbers tell a pretty interesting story.

Here’s what happened through August 2026:

🏠 Closed sales are up 14.31% YTD
💰 Closed dollar volume is up 25.03% YTD
📝 Contracts written are up 15.54% YTD
📈 Contract volume is up 24.98% YTD
🏡 New listings are essentially flat — up just 0.15% YTD

But there’s an important wrinkle…

August showed some moderation. Closed volume was down 2.27% YoY, and new listings were down 9.64% YoY for the month.

Translation?
The market isn’t standing still. It’s changing.

For buyers, that can mean more opportunities to negotiate and make thoughtful decisions while demand remains active.

For sellers, buyers are still out there—and homes are still moving—but pricing and positioning matter.

The takeaway isn't “buy now” or “sell now.”

It's this:

Don’t make your decision based on yesterday’s headlines. Make it based on today’s numbers.

Want to know what these numbers mean for your specific home, neighborhood, or buying budget?

Stop waiting for a "better" market and check out the data from the Emerald Coast Association of Realtors.

Here is exactly what you need to know:

Sellers hold the leverage: New listings taken are nearly flat at +0.87% YTD. This extreme inventory shortage means if you are listing in Destin, Fort Walton Beach, or Crestview right now, you are stepping into a market with high demand and low competition.

Buyers need to prepare for price power: Closed volume (+29.12% YoY) is dramatically outpacing unit growth (+15.86% YoY). What does that mean? Higher price points are fueling this market. You need a bulletproof pre-approval and an aggressive negotiation strategy to win.

As a listing specialist with Keller Williams Emerald Coast, my bottom line to you is this: Growth is normalizing, but the market remains significantly stronger than it was in 2025. The time to capture your market share is right now.

Are you positioned to win, or are you just browsing Zillow?

Before you move to Destin for the emerald water, let’s look at the math and the fine print that doesn’t make the real estate brochures.

From 4-figure windstorm quotes and salt air corrosion to the beach access "Sand Wars," we broke down who should actually buy coastal—and who is way better off heading inland.

Watch the full 8-minute breakdown on YouTube (link in comments)! 📲

Did I just call moving to Destin a mistake?! 🏖️🤦‍♂️

Look, emerald water is incredible—until your first windstorm insurance quote arrives and looks like an accidental phone number. Before you sign your life away to coastal carrying costs, let's talk about what doesn't make the glossy postcards.

In this breakdown:

Elevation vs. Insurance: Why Flood Zone X is saving homeowners thousands every year.

Environmental Depreciation: How Gulf salt air and humidity quietly corrode everything you own.

The Sand Wars: The messy legal battles over who actually gets to use the beach.

The Final Verdict: Who should buy coastal, and who should look inland?
