Save with Southern Residential Leasing!

If you’re not ready to buy a home for sale in Pensacola just yet, look to our friends at Southern Residential Leasing. With long term rentals in Mobile, Gulf Shores, Perdido Key and Pensacola, they can help you find a great place to call home.

Speaking of great things, now is GREAT time to apply for a home or condo in the area as Southern is running a month-long move-in special in honor of Veteran’s Day. This year, our team of property managers has decided to waive the standard $50 application fee as a way of thanking the brave men and women who have fought and continue to fight to protect our nation. The discount applies to all rentals and fees will be waived for all active-duty, medical discharge, honorable discharge and former military members. If you are former military, you must be able to provide DD214.

In the grand scheme of things, it’s just a small way for us to say thank you for all that you have done and continue to do. If you have questions about Southern’s Veteran’s Day Special, or are interested in applying for a rental in the area, contact our property managers directly at 855.981.7516 or visit SouthernResidentialLeasing.com.

*Special Runs Through November 30, 2015.

Realtor.com’s Mobile, AL Real Estate Forecast

WaterfrontSweet home Alabama never rang more true, at least according to a recent article released by Realtor.com. Large homes, affordable prices – who wouldn’t want to own real estate in Orange Beach, Gulf Shores, Fairhope or any of the neighboring cities in the great state of Alabama?

Well, that’s not the only reason real estate is “looking rosy in Mobile.” Job creation is a huge draw. The Airbus Factory is projected to create 4,000 jobs, and according to the New York Times the “plane maker has received more than 18,000 applications,” already.

“If manufacturing continues to grow, Mobile may just become a destination for people looking for an affordable place to live,” said the author Lisa Davis. Affordable is an understatement when you compare market prices to similar areas around the Gulf Coast. The average home price in Mobile is $125,000. The average sold price is $119,000 – $190,640 less than the national average.

It’s an exciting time, and we’re happy to be here on the ground floor. If you’re thinking about buying a home for sale in Mobile, Alabama, now is the time to do it! Contact one of our real estate agents for advice and tips and area information.
