Here is a photo shot around Christmas time a few years ago. I like it because it captures our shores in the winter. A piece of Spanish moss, sandy beach, boat house and sun setting. It's really beautiful here on Fleming Island and Doctor's Lake is a big part of what makes it so great to live here.

This was one of my first waterfront shots, taken from the dock by the Waterfront Park in Eagle Harbor. It is still one of my favorites. Both of these photos show up on Google and both of them have been grabbed and used without permission on various sites. I guess it's a form of flattery, but it would be better if they bothered to check the source and see that they are not public property. I know what Lenn says. I need to register them, right? Anyway, enjoy them, and come visit us on Fleming Island sometime!

Eagle Harbor Market Report September 2011- Single Family Homes

87 Active Single Family Homes

143 Single Family Homes Sold 9/30/10 to 9/30/11

The absorption rate* for Eagle Harbor Single Family Homes is 7.3 months.

*This means that it will take 7.3 molnths for all the Active homes (87) to sell if no other homes come on the market.

A balanced market is between 6-7months of inventory, so Eagle Harbor is approaching a balanced market.

If we do not have many more distressed properties come on the market, then prices in Eagle Harbor will continue to stabilize.

Eagle Harbor is a golf community with 2800+ homes, everything from condos to waterfront homes, one of the best tennis programs in the area, three water parks and five day docks. There is a public boat ramp right by the community and RV/boat storage (based on availibility). Schools are all A-rated, with Fleming Island Elementary in the neighborhood. Clay County Soccer Fields are next to the School. Basketball, Volleyball, and Playgrounds throughout Eagle Harbor are just a few more of our amenities. Our full-time Activities Director plans wonderful activities for every age group. Shopping and restaurants are right outside our community - and we even have our own movie theatre on Fleming Island.

Eagle Harbor homes have held their value more than many other Jacksonville communities, and if the decline in inventory stays where it is, then prices will not only stabilize but may begin increasing again.
