Congratulations to Kim and Evelyn on selling their home!
Thank you both for trusting me and the EXIT 1 Stop Realty team to help you through the process. It’s truly been a pleasure working with you, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to be part of this chapter.
Wishing you both nothing but the best as you head to South Florida and start the next adventure!
One of my favorite parts of closing day is turning a successful sale into something that helps our community. In honor of Kim and Evelyn, I'll donate a portion of my proceeds from this closing to Micah's Backpack, Jacksonville , providing weekend food for one child for an entire school year!

Some closings mean a little more.

Mike has been my lifelong friend. We deployed together, served together, and even transitioned to Chief Petty Officer together. Now, I get to celebrate another huge milestone with him and his wife, Jessica.

Congratulations to Mike and Jessica on closing on their BRAND NEW home! New construction on a 1-acre lot! As Mike prepares to retire from the Navy and settle into this next chapter, I couldn’t be happier for them.

It was an honor to be part of this journey, but even more special because of the friendship behind it.

Welcome home, Mike and Jessica!

Because Mike and Jessica trusted me as their Realtor, a child will be fed for an entire school year in their name through , providing weekend meals during the school year!

We love American Legion Post 283! 🇺🇸
Over the past 12 months, they have donated more than $10,000 to support the mission of Micah's Backpack Jacksonville, helping ensure local children have food to eat over the weekend.
As if that weren't enough, they've now kicked off a peanut butter drive to help fill even more backpacks.
This is what community looks like. Veterans continuing to serve long after their military service ends. Thank you, American Legion Post 283, for your unwavering commitment to making a difference right here in Jacksonville.

Support the American Legion Post 283 Peanut Butter Drive for Micah's Backpack!

The members of American Legion Post 283 are once again stepping up to support local children by hosting a 16 oz. Peanut Butter Drive benefiting Micah's Backpack.

We invite our friends, neighbors, businesses, and community members to join the American Legion in making a difference. Every 16 oz. jar of peanut butter donated helps provide nutritious, protein-rich food for elementary school children who may otherwise go hungry over the weekend.

Drop off your donation at:
American Legion Post 283
9459 Fort Caroline Road Jacksonville, FL 32225

At Micah's Backpack, our mission is to ensure that no elementary school child goes hungry over the weekend during the school year. Peanut butter is one of the most requested items because it is shelf-stable, nutritious, and provides the protein children need to stay healthy and return to school on Monday ready to learn, grow, and succeed.

A heartfelt thank you to American Legion Post 283 for leading this community effort and for their continued commitment to serving our local children. Together, we can fill backpacks—and hungry bellies—with hope.

Construction has officially started on this Jacksonville renovation, and we’re beginning with the floors.

My customer knew there were likely flooring issues before purchasing the property. There were plywood patches throughout the house, so this was the obvious place to start. Once the subfloor started coming up, it revealed what we expected. The original flooring had rotted from the crawlspace up.

That’s not uncommon in older Florida homes. Many were built before moisture barriers were standard, and after decades of Florida humidity, the damage often starts underneath the house long before it is obvious from the inside.

Over the next several days, the old flooring will be removed and properly repaired. No shortcuts.

The yard has also been cleaned up, and it has made a big difference. Once the debris and overgrowth were cleared, it revealed a good sized yard with a lot of potential.

Jacksonville, like many cities across the country, has a real need for more affordable housing options. This home is being brought back to life with that in mind. It will not be ready right away; we are likely looking at three to four months. Once completed, seller financing will be available to buyers who may not qualify for or be able to afford a traditional loan.

I’ll continue sharing updates as the project moves forward. This one has a long way to go, but it’s already good to see progress starting.

Our Mission: Feeding Hope, One Backpack at a Time 🎒

At Micah's Backpack, we believe that no school child should go hungry over the weekend during the school year.

For many children, school meals are their most reliable source of nutrition. When Friday afternoon arrives, some face an uncertain weekend without enough food. That's where Micah's Backpack steps in.

Each week, we provide participating students with a backpack containing approximately eight nutritious meals and snacks to help sustain them over the weekend. Our goal is simple: to ensure children return to school on Monday morning well-nourished, ready to learn, ready to grow, and free to focus on being children.

Thanks to the generosity of our donors, volunteers, schools, churches, and community partners, during the 2025–2026 school year we were able to:

🍎 Serve 322 students
🏫 Partner with 20 elementary schools
🎒 Provide thousands of weekend meals to children experiencing food insecurity

As we prepare for the 2026–2027 school year, we hope to expand our reach and serve even more children and schools throughout our community.

Whether you choose to volunteer, donate, organize a food drive, or simply share our mission with others, you are helping ensure that no child has to face a hungry weekend alone.

Together, we can make a lasting difference—one backpack, one weekend, one child at a time.

Learn more, get involved, or make a donation today. Every act of kindness helps feed hope.

Mortgage rates continue to react to inflation data, and yesterday’s CPI along with today’s PPI numbers may slow down some of the recent momentum buyers have been hoping for. While nobody has a crystal ball, rates could stay a little elevated in the short term.
That’s why programs like this can make a real difference.
My trusted lender, Gary Burmeister, is currently offering a 1-0 buydown program that lowers your interest rate by 1% for the first year, at no extra cost to the buyer. It’s designed to help make monthly payments a little easier while buyers settle into their new home.
There are also no prepayment penalties if rates improve and you decide to refinance later.
