Sharon and Frank work as a team. We are Certified Distressed Property Experts and can help you or your referral with their short sale. 

With over 20 years' combined experience, we have what it takes to navigate this challenging real estate market.  Let us tell you about this great place to make your next home!

As Certified Distressed Property Experts, we are able to help you if you are in a distressed situation with your home. Perhaps you are eligible for a loan modification. We will explain all your options and then you can make the best decision for you and your family. If your decision to sell, our experience can guide you through the process. We love relocating Buyers! With you, it's about way more than the house. It's about the commute, the schools, the shopping, the cultural activities, dentists, doctors, the vet and more. We love you! Our patience never runs thin and no question is unwelcome. Ask away, that's what we're here for! If we don't know the answer, we'll get it for you.

What sets us apart is our attention to detail, our continued follow up without being pushy.  We want to build relationships, not just get a paycheck. Our goal to Buyers is that you receive outstanding service and find your dream home. Our goal to Sellers is to sell your home in the fastest time with the least amount of inconvenience to you, and put the most money in your pocket.

People contact us years later to sell or buy because of the meaningful relationship we developed. 

We equip our Sellers and Buyers with the knowledge they need to make educated decisions, then negotiate hard on their behalf. 

Our internet marketing is above and beyond most other agents in the business.  Even though we're not the youngest agents in our office, we're some of the most 'techy!'  Our Multiple Listing Service guy labeled us as "Power Users" when we recently and often ask them for better services from the company they employ. 

We are fun to work with! 

No question is too unimportant, and you will be treated with courtesy and respect. 

We are easy to reach! 

We like people!

We are honest! 

We will tell you the truth even if it means it's a deal breaker.  We also recommend inspectors who are 'deal breakers' because we don't want you to buy a house without having the most thorough people we know looking it over.

Frank graduated from the University of Florida with a Bachelor of Science/Business Administration in Accounting. Sharon attended Rollins College and graduated from Georgia State University with a Bachelor of Arts in English Literature. Frank pledged Delta Tau Delta and Sharon pledged Pi Beta Phi.

Frank grew up in a Navy family and lived in California, North Carolina and Florida. Sharon grew up in Virginia and Atlanta, Georgia. After 20 years in Florida, she is ready to call herself a Floridian! Frank was born in Key West, making him a 'Conch.' Frank's family moved to Jacksonville when he was 11, so this is his 'home town.'

Certified Distressed Property Experts - we can help you or your referral with their distressed property.

We are experts in residential homes and also have considerable experience in listing and selling vacant land.

We list bungalow to high-end homes, including waterfront properties.  Each property has a different marketing plan, as each one has an individual target market and should be treated accordingly. Staging is key and a passion of ours. "The way you live in a home is not the way you sell a home." You are marketing to the masses, and the home must be more generic and less personal. We can help you with that.

 We absolutely love working with relocating buyers.  With you, it's about way more than the house.  It's about the neighborhood, the schools, the shopping, the commute to work, the vet, dentist, etc.  It's about getting a feel for the entire area in a sliver of time.  We can do that.  Military Relocations are a specialty. Frank grew up in a Navy family and we have Navy family and friends all around us. We understand your special needs.

Repeatedly, relocating buyers tell us, "Yes, we really do have a feel for the community now, we do understand the layout of the city and the advantages and disadvantages of the different areas we could consider living in."  See, when you're moving to town, you aren't tied to any area yet.  Great!  You can pick the part of town that works best for you and we know the WHOLE area so you won't be pigeon-holed and say six months down the road, "I wish I had known about this area when my realtor showed me houses."

Frank and I work as a team, so our testimonials may be for one of us or both. In 2008 and 2009, we have won the coveted Five Star Best-in-Client Satisfaction Award from Jacksonville Homebuyer magazine.
