🏡 NEW CONSTRUCTION OR EXISTING HOME? Which Is Right for You? 🔑

Nassau County is growing, and with so many new homes and communities popping up, buyers have more options than ever!

✨ New construction offers modern designs, energy efficiency, builder warranties, and customization options—but watch for extra costs and construction delays.

🏠 Existing homes often offer established neighborhoods, mature landscaping, unique character, and the ability to move in sooner. Just be prepared for potential repairs and updates!

The key? Look beyond the asking price and consider the total cost of ownership, location, maintenance, and your lifestyle.

Whether you’re dreaming of a brand-new home or a charming resale property, the spouses who sell houses are here to help you find the perfect fit!

🏡 Could You Save Money by Removing PMI?

If you purchased your home with less than 20% down, you may be paying private mortgage insurance (PMI) every month. But as you pay down your mortgage or your home’s value increases, you may qualify to remove it!

✨ Here’s what to know:
🔹 You can generally request PMI cancellation when your loan balance reaches 80% of your home’s original value.
🔹 Automatic cancellation generally occurs at 78% if your payments are current and applicable requirements are met.
🔹 Some homeowners may qualify based on increased home value, though lender requirements and appraisal costs may apply.

💰 Removing PMI could free up money for savings, home improvements, paying down debt, or your next move!

Curious what your home is worth today? Reach out! I’d love to help you explore your home’s current market value. Then, check with your mortgage servicer to see whether you may qualify to remove PMI.

Can’t wait to see this!

Today, we had the chance to sit down with local filmmaker Rachel Suissa and learn more about her feature film, "Greek Mothers Never Die" (2025), which was filmed in and around Fernandina Beach and Amelia Island!

Rachel moved to Fernandina in 2023. Her father was French and her mother is Greek, and the film draws from that Greek heritage. Nick is also of Greek descent, so the two had plenty to connect over.

We talked about Rachel’s journey as a filmmaker, what brought her to Fernandina Beach, and what it was like to make a feature film right here in our community.

Links to trailer and full-movie streaming options are in the comments. 🎬

Florida homeowners may see changes to their property taxes if a proposed constitutional amendment passes on November 3, 2026.

The proposal would increase the homestead exemption for non-school property taxes to $150,000 in 2027 and $250,000 in 2028, with future adjustments for inflation.

It would also lower the annual assessment cap for non-homestead properties from 10% to 5%.

When you establish Florida homestead matters. Those establishing residency after January 1, 2027, would generally begin with the current $50,000 exemption and qualify for the larger benefit in their fifth year of maintaining a homestead exemption.

A major potential change on the horizon, understanding how the proposal could affect your home, your property taxes and your community is worth paying attention to.

Have questions about how this proposed change could affect your plans to buy or sell in Florida? We are happy to help you understand the real estate side of the conversation.

This is an overview of the proposed amendment, not tax or legal advice.

ONE PROPERTY. TWO HOMES. ONE BLOCK FROM THE BEACH.

What if you could own a place on Amelia Island and have a second residence helping offset the cost of ownership?

With two separate 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath residences, approximately 2,100 square feet combined, separate utilities and a location just one block from the beach, this property offers flexibility that a traditional single-family home simply doesn't.

🏡 Live in one side and rent the other.
💰 Rent both sides.
🌴 Or use the second residence for family and guests.

We're looking for the buyer who sees the possibilities.
