Last night was pretty special 💙

We had about 50 clients, friends, and supporters come out to Clancy's Cantina to celebrate Locals Summer with us, and I’m incredibly grateful to everyone who took the time to join us.

One of my favorite parts of the night was seeing clients from all different stages of my career. My very first real estate client from back in 2017 was there, all the way to some of the clients I’ve worked with most recently. Having Walter, our broker, and Paul, our Business Development Manager at RE/MAX, there made the night even more special.

And of course, I couldn’t have pulled this together without Brianna, who put a ton of work into making the night happen, and my wife Stephanie, who is always there supporting me and our business!

The whole point of the evening was simple: get together, catch up, have some fun, and say thank you.

Thank you to everyone who has trusted me with your home, referred a friend or family member, supported The Travis Ford Group, or simply continued to follow along with what we’re doing here in New Smyrna Beach.

I don’t take any of it for granted.

A big thank you to our sponsors who helped make the evening possible:

Laurie Roshelli | CLA Title�
Lacey Stone | Motto Mortgage�
Vince Cardone | Residential Inspections�
Brandon Lester | Brightway Insurance

We missed Brandon last night, but appreciate his support!

And thank you to everyone who came out. It was great seeing so many familiar faces in one place.

Good people, cold drinks, great conversations, and Locals Summer in New Smyrna Beach. What more could you ask for?

That’s Living the Dream 🌴

The number of homes sold in New Smyrna Beach was down slightly in August...

But that’s not the whole story!

In fact, some of the other numbers from the latest market report tell a very different story:

• $58.0M in closed sales volume, up 28.9%
• 95.7% of original list price received, up from 92.0%
• 37 days to contract, down from 69 days last year
• New listings were up 12.5%
• Active inventory was down 22.3%

So while there were 90 closed sales compared to 94 last August, the total dollar volume was significantly higher, and homes that went under contract did so much faster.

There’s another interesting piece to the story. We’re seeing more new listings come onto the market, but overall inventory is still down by more than 120 homes from this time last year.

And the median sale price? Down 5.8%.

The average sale price? Up 34.6%.

That’s a pretty good reminder that there isn’t one number that tells you what’s happening in the New Smyrna Beach real estate market.

Price point, property type, and location all matter.

That’s why when we’re looking at the market, we’re paying attention to more than just whether prices went up or down.

If you’re thinking about buying or selling, we’d be happy to show you what the numbers actually look like for your part of New Smyrna Beach.

And just like that… we’ve reached the final stop 🥪

You guys voted, and Manzano’s Beachside Deli was the clear choice for our final stop in the search for the Best Sandwich Shops in New Smyrna Beach.

And after five stops, a whole lot of sandwiches, and more recommendations than we could possibly fit into one series… we’ve officially got to call it a wrap!

From Big Joe Subs to Paco’s, Gatto’s, Mon Délice, and now Manzano’s, this series ended up being about a lot more than finding a great sandwich.

It gave us an excuse to get out around town, try some of the places you recommended, meet the people behind the businesses, and highlight the local spots that make New Smyrna Beach feel like home. 💙

And we know we definitely missed some favorites. There are way too many good sandwich spots in NSB to fit into just five stops!

So now that the sandwich series is officially wrapped… what do you want to see from us next? 👀

New restaurants? Hidden local gems? More NSB businesses? A completely different kind of series?

Tell us in the comments. We’re listening. 👇

That’s what we call Living the Dream. 🌴

What happens in our community matters. And understanding who gets to make those decisions matters, too.

Tonight, the New Smyrna Beach Residents’ Coalition is hosting a free public forum on Home Rule | Our City, Our Choices.

The discussion will cover the history and legal foundation of Home Rule, how changes to local government authority can affect citizens and locally elected officials, and how residents can make their voices heard.

📍 Brannon Center
105 S. Riverside Drive, New Smyrna Beach
🕠 Tonight | 5:30–7:00 PM
🎟️ Free & open to the public

Whether you’ve followed the Home Rule conversation closely or this is something you’re just learning about, it’s an opportunity to listen, learn, and better understand how local decisions are made.

If you live in New Smyrna Beach, it’s worth knowing what’s happening in your own backyard.

POV: You live in Florida for the sunshine… and then Florida gives you a week of rain. 🌧️

All we want is a little sunshine so we can get back to living the dream!

Until then, we’ll be patiently waiting for the clouds to clear and our regularly scheduled programming to resume:

☀️ Bikes
🏖️ Beach
⛳ Golf
🌴 Living the Dream

A little rain is great for the grass, the golf courses, and the water levels… but come on, Florida. We have a Dream to live! 😉

Three closings. One new contract. And a week that reminded us why we love what we do. 🥂🔑

These transactions don’t happen by accident. They take strategy, clear communication, and relentless follow-through from start to finish.

🏡 13 Hillside Drive – Closed | Represented both Buyer & Seller
🏡 2237 Hawks Cove Circle – Closed | Represented both Buyer & Seller
🏡 287 Caryota Court – Closed | Helped our sellers secure their next purchase
📝 0 Tatum Boulevard – Under Contract | Representing Seller

But honestly, the biggest win isn’t the number of transactions.

It’s when a seller trusts me to help them with their next purchase, or when both sides of a transaction trust me to navigate the process all the way to the closing table.

That kind of trust means more than any number ever could.

Thinking about making a move this season? Comment “MOVE” or send me a DM. Let’s start the conversation.

$100,000,000 🤙

When I started my real estate career, I never imagined that one day I'd look back and see $100 million in closed sales...

Today, that milestone has been met!

But when I look at that number, I don't think about the number itself. I think about the people behind it, the buyers and sellers who trusted me with some of the biggest decisions of their lives, the clients who became friends, and the incredible people I've had the privilege of working alongside.

Every closing represents a story, a new chapter, and someone who put their trust in us. That means far more to me than any sales number ever could.

To every client who has trusted me along the way, thank you 🙏
To my team and business partners, thank you for your hard work, dedication, and the care you bring to every client we serve!

I'm incredibly grateful for this journey, proud of what we've built together, and humbled by the people who have allowed us to be a small part of their stories.

Thank you for helping me Live the Dream. Here's to what comes next 🌴

Every local has that sandwich shop they'll defend no matter what. 😅

We're on stop #3 of our search for the Best Sandwich Shops in NSB, and this time we checked out Gatto’s Family Deli in Edgewater. From the family history to the fresh-made sandwiches, it's easy to see why they've already built such a loyal following.

The comments on this series have been awesome, and you've given us plenty of new places to add to our list.

Now we've only got two stops left...

👇 If you could only recommend ONE sandwich shop to someone new to the area, where would you send them?

No explanations. No runner-ups. Just your one pick.

Tag them below and let us know what to order when we go! 👀
