New Construction, Existing Home, Condo, Investment or 2nd Home – that’s the question

New Construction, Existing Home, Condo, Investment, or Family Vacation Home: Some questions need answers

When you move or invest in NW Florida or Coastal Alabama, you have some decisions to make. Some questions need answers.  

Will you move downtown, Pensacola, neighborhood, beach home or condo? Will you choose Pensacola, Perdido Key, Gulf Breeze, Orange Beach or Gulf Shores, Alabama?

And, of course, budget, HOA fees, taxes, and if an investment property, what’s the rental potential or projection?

Each of these decisions comes down to personal preferences and Southern Real Estate Sales Agents listen to your needs and wants. But, one step further, Southern Rentals & Real Estate is a custom boutique brokerage that allows you one stop shopping.

The U.S. Navy Blue Angels drew a record crowd to the sugar-white sand and turquoise water of the Gulf Coast earlier in July. The “Blues” annual Homecoming Air Show in Pensacola Beach which has a reputation as a tourist destination is rivaled only by its military heritage. The Blue Angels are hometown heroes to the locals and this amazing elite, high-flying team with their aerial maneuvers and laser point precision is a spectacular show for all ages. Naval Air Station Pensacola is located just west of the city’s downtown and has trained generations of airmen and the home base for the Blue Angels. Pensacola is a city with such deep military roots, few things arouse more pride than the sight of the Blues soaring high above the Gulf Coast.

With record crowds, Southern Rentals and Real Estate has the most productive agents and team to host guests to the area.

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.
