Thinking about buying or selling in St. Lucie County? Here's one most people never ask about: your Homestead Exemption doesn't disappear when you sell. Up to $500,000 of your Save Our Homes savings can transfer to your next Florida homestead, and the longer you've been homesteaded, the bigger that gap usually is.

General information only, not tax or legal advice, current per Florida Statute 193.155 and Florida county Property Appraiser offices.

Comment PORTABLE and I'll walk you through what this could mean for you.

Which Port St. Lucie area actually fits you? Tradition, St. Lucie West, PGA Village, Port St. Lucie, Fort Pierce, or Stuart, they're all different lifestyles, not just different price points.

Three questions, one minute, a real answer based on how you actually want to live. Free quiz link in bio, and I'm curious, comment which one you think you'll get.

🕵️ EPISODE 2: THE CASE OF THE MISSING BUYER

What you are about to read... is true.

The showing went well. Almost too well. The buyer lingered by the kitchen island, loved the layout, said the four words every agent waits to hear: "We'll be in touch."

They were never heard from again.

No callback. No text. Just three question marks on the sign-in sheet, where a phone number should have been.

Cold feet? A busy week? Or something else? I can't tell you what happened to that buyer. But I can tell you this, it doesn't have to happen to yours.

I follow the signs. I follow up. I find the right buyer. I get it SOLD.

24-Hour Buyer & Seller Hotline: (772) 475-3730 List it. Find it. Get it sold.

This case is closed.

"Is now the right time to sell?" My answer is always the same: it's always the right time. Listing costs nothing, and you're paying that mortgage either way unless the house is owned free and clear.

Comment "WORTH" and I'll get you real numbers on your house.

Port St. Lucie, St. Lucie West, Tradition, or PGA Village, they're not interchangeable. Each one solves for something different.

I've lived this area since 1988 and watched every one of these towns grow into what they are now. Comment your must haves and I'll tell you which one actually fits you.

HOA and CDD get used like they mean the same thing. They don't.

HOA covers the neighborhood, landscaping, amenities, the gate. CDD pays off the infrastructure the developer built, roads, utilities, drainage. A lot of new construction in Port St. Lucie and Tradition has both.
