Santa Rosa Beach Bay Front Lot | JUST SOLD! I just sold another Bay Front Lot in Santa Rosa Beach Florida.  I represented the sellers in this transaction and they are very happy with the outcome.  This large estate sized lot is located in Driftwood Estates.  This lot is special because it has great trees, amazing sunset views, and this one is not required to be in the Driftwood HOA.  The lot borders Sandestin Resort and it is a very short boat road to the Sandestin Marina and the Village of Baytowne Wharf.  I actually live very close to this lot on the bay and I really enjoy helping Destin and Santa Rosa Beach Florida Bay Front buyers and sellers.   I have a very similar Bay Front Lot in Driftwood still listed.  Check out the link below.

Market Recoveries are Happening - What Should You Expect and What Can You Do to Embrace the Shift? I am an Active Real Estate Broker in Destin and Santa Rosa Beach FL.  We were one of the first ones to get hit hard by the Real Estate crash and found ourselves deep in the weeds in late 2006.   We saw land prices decease by as much as 90% (THiS IS NO LIE) and many homes and condos went down by 60 to 70%.  It was the craziest thing I have ever seen.  This was when I began working as a Real Estate Broker full time and I did very well focusing on Destin and Santa Rosa Beach FL short sales and foreclosures.   My step father was a developer and went through the crash in the 80s, so when the market crashed, he gave me some great insight on what was about to happen.  He always said, "In Destin a... 04/06/2013
