Mandarin's roots are said to date back to the Civil War. The building that is home to the Mandarin Community Club was rebuilt in 1872 after a fire destroyed an earlier building on the site. Harriet Beecher Stowe, famed author of Uncle Tom's Cabin and longtime winter resiendent of Mandarin, led the project.

There are numerous choices for home buyers throughout the area ranging from the mid-$100's to several million dollars for waterfront estates. Many of the properties boast canopies of huge oak trees tha put on an incredible natural display for local residents.

Quality education is a priority for many of these families and the area schools reflect that commitment providing among the best scores in the area. In addition to the excellent public schools, Mandarin is home to several private and parochial schools for every grade.

There Is A Difference in Jacksonville

Specialties Include:

First-time Buyers: Perhaps you've just moved out on your own or you're just tired of helping someone else pay their mortgage (When paying rent, you are essentially just paying the landlord's mortgage... think about it). Whatever your reasons, you're ready to take that step toward The American Dream of purchasing your own home.

If you're anything like we were when we made our first purchase you probably have a million questions and concerns. Well take a deep breath and relax. With help it won't be nearly as confusing as you may fear.

Now, don't get the impression that we are going to try and answer all your questions on our website. That would probably take up way too much bandwidth. But we have included enough information on our website and in our FREE special reports to get you started.

You may be thinking... "What Realtor® is going to want to help me. I can't afford a big, expensive house. He's not going to give me as much attention as someone who's spending more."

Well, if that is what you're thinking, think again! Over the years, we've had the pleasure of working with many first-time buyers and we love it. There are very few things in our business more rewarding than helping someone find and purchase their first home.

Relocation Specialists: Both of us have lived in Jacksonville for more than 40 years. We know the area well and love our city and what we do - help people find the right home for themselves and their families. Susan has over 23 years experience as a licensed Real Estate Sales Associate and was an RN prior to that. Tim has a background in education, counseling and business development. Our careers have provided us with hundreds of well-placed contacts throughout the Greater Jacksonville Area. Let us introduce you to our great city!

Investors: In addition to owning numerous rental properties, we have purchased, renovated and resold several homes over the years. We work with investors on an individual basis.

To enhance your investment strategies, it’s our job as real estate professionals to provide you with as much information as possible. It is essential that the investor be aware of all aspects of the real estate investment market before making major decisions.

We're here to help make this process as rewarding as possible. We invite you to access any or all of our informative articles today. And be sure to check back frequently as we will be adding to them as we find the time to write.
