Brent's Cove Development Bryceville Florida Real Estate

Brent's Cove if developed will be on my commute to work each day.  I drive this route daily and it is very rare that I have issues with traffic.  However, several times per week, I do get held up by the CSX trains that seem to last forever when you are in a hurry.  Over the years I have watched as the back up of vehicles at the train has risen from 1-2 up to more than 20.    The tracks are about 3 miles east of Buckhead located on a curve.  Should this development pass, I can see many issues with the traffic due to Ford/Plumber road being two lane and there is no way to get through when there is a train on the tracks. 

I understand that many are fighting the Brent's Cove development.  However, if…

Building a new home can be a very stressful process.  The level of your involvement depends on the type of program you choose.  There are many home builders that will finance the construction of your new home.  However, if you are looking to build a custom home, most builders will require that you supply the funds.  This type of financing is referred to as "construction/perm".    You will need a lender that provides the services of a construction loan.  Wayne Morgan at Peoples First Mortgage has been very helpful to me in the past.  Unfortunately, I met him through a Mortgage Broker which  cost me a great deal of money.  I am posting this blog in hopes that others will not have as difficult of a time as I did…

Being the new family in a community can be a lonely feeling.  You do not know anyone and with the busy life that most people lead, you may not even see your neighbors outside in their yards.  Most real estate agents do not provide the service of introducing you to your neighbors and you find yourself sitting on a new piece of real estate that you are now calling home, yet it just doesn't feel too much like home.  This situation can happen to anyone of us in any area.  From the crowded areas of Jacksonville to the country areas such as Bryceville,  Macclenny  or Callahan and anywhere else in the country.  If you are the type of person that likes to…

    I am not very mechanically inclined which most of us are not.  When our vehicle breaks down, most of us go to the local mechanic to get rolling again.  We all have specific talents and strengths.  In many situations special training or a certain skills are needed in order to achieve the best results.  However, if you are like me, the cheapest route is always the most attractive.  Most of us consider the amount of effort, time, cost and experience needed to achieve a task before we make the decision on how we meet our goals.  Many people think that it will be easy to buy or sell a their home on their own.  The only differences in selling your home and achieving any other goal are the legal risks and investment risks associated with a real estate…
