Beat The Heat At The Ormond Beach Splash Park

Located in Ormond Beach Florida is a splash park and playground. The splash includes dumping buckets, a spash tunnel and water cannons. A very quaint, small and fenced in park perfect for playgroups or just trying to cool off from the Florida heat.

The Ormond Beach Splash park is open from noon to dusk and open seven days a week but don't worry no water will be wasted as the water is on a timer helping the community to conserve water.

City Commissioner Troy Kent that park would be a worthwhile addition to the city of Ormond Beach. A great place in Ormond Beach to have a party or a picnic!

Ormond Beach REALTOR | Daytona Beach REALTOR VS. Daytona Real Estate Agent

There is a big difference between a real estate agent and a REALTOR. A real estate agent is licensed through the State and can practice real estate as long as they are affiliated with a real estate company.

Real estate agents who are not a REALTOR will not have access to the multiple listing service, will not have keys to open locks to show your home.

In most cases it will limit showings and exposure to get your home sold. Not only am I a real estate agent I have chosen to be a REALTOR.

So what is a REALTOR? A REALTOR is a real estate agent who has taken additional training and steps to become a REALTOR. I have joined one of the largest organizations in the country, the organization would be the National Assocation of REALTORS.

Although not a requirement if you are practicing real estate and would rather be a REALTOR than just a real estate agent, we know we must become a member of NAR. There are several advantages with working with a REALTOR.

  • REALTORS must join their local board. I am a proud member of the Daytona Beach Area Association.
  • REALTORS must join their state board. I am a proud member of the Florida Assocation of REALTORS
  • Must become a member of the National Association of REALTORS
  • Have access to all mls listings available on the market
  • Access to use the mls to market listings to fellow REALTORS
  • We offer protection by using documents that are approved by the Florida Association of REALTORS and these documents are approved by attornies too.
  • We take additional training

  • We take an oath to abide by The REALTOR CODE of Ethics.

As you can see there are many advantages of working with a REALTOR vs. just a real estate agent. More training, more accountability and access to all mls listings on the market today.

While I am a real estate agent I am also proud to call myself a REALTOR.

If you have a home that you are interested in selling or in themarket to buy make sure the real estate agent that you use is a REALTOR too! If you have additional question or concerns or would like to work with a REALTOR, contact us.

We would love the opportunity to help you.

Our beaches are active and caution must be taken because Daytona Beach allows parking right on the sand.

Here are just a few safety rules you should follow to get the most out of The World's Most Famous Beach!

  • Because it is not uncommon for people to walk on the beach, there is a speedlimit you must follow. In order to appreciate the beauty and site seeing it is helpful to follow the speed limit on the beach. 10 mph
  • Because we share this beach with plant life and marine life its important to park in designated areas as well as leave the natural habitat alone unless of course you are fishing.
  • There clearly is a path where cars drive so make sure and do not sunbath in their path.
  • One thing is certain there is a time frame in which you can drive on the beach, no night driving leave that to the beach patrol and other emergency vehicles as well as the city.
  • No pets or acholic beverages on the beach. Don't worry plenty of places to get yourself a cold one and cool off!

  • You can grill but just clean up after yourself so the next person who wants to enjoy the beach will have the opportunity.
