The Right Real Estate Agent

People don't talk about it a lot. But finding the right real estate agent can be the difference between a happy, stress-free home buying or selling experience, and an unhappy, stressful experience.

We hope that our site and the information provided will help to reduce some of the stress and anxiety that you may feel in starting a search for the Amelia Island or Yulee area home or property you are looking to buy. On our site, you will find our personal listings, but you are also able to search the entire Nassau County Multiple Listing Service (MLS) - Amelia Island, Fernandina Beach, Yulee, Callahan, Hilliard and all the areas in between. And just a note for those that may not be familiar with our area: Fernandina Beach is the incorporated historic city on Amelia Island. Yes, Fernandina Beach and Amelia Island are one and the same place - take a look... A Tour Of Amelia Island

Ready - you'll want an agent ready and able to make a full-time commitment to you.  We can and will do that. Mary Caserta and Jim Caserta work together as a team so that we can give you, our customer, our best professional real estate service. Quite often, while Mary is showing customers properties in the Amelia Island and Yulee areas, Jim will be responding to customer real estate inquiries, returning calls, and performing other activities to provide the service our buyers and sellers need to have a stress-free real estate experience. We believe our customers should expect full-time professionals to provide them the service they should expect. When a person is making one of his or her most important purchase or selling decisions, why expect less than a full-time professional.

Willing - you'll want an agent with the experience needed to know the local neighborhoods, schools, market conditions, ordinances, etc. With our years of experience in the local market - we have the expertise and track record of success you need.  Mary and Jim have both been with CENTURY 21 John T. Ferreira & Son since they started their real estate careers - Mary since December, 1988, and Jim since March, 1993.  We look forward to helping our buyers and sellers through their real estate transaction. Let us help guide you through the sometimes very complex maze of buying and selling – issues that can range from flood zones, types of inspection(s) needed, boundary irregularities to wetland and lowland questions, resolving house and building deficiencies, reviewing covenants, restrictions and disclosures, writing the purchase and sale agreement in your behalf to answering simple questions like, “Is Amelia Island a nice place to live?” Our answer: “We love it here – it is such a special place!”

Able - you'll want an agent who embraces the convenience of technology without losing the personal touch. You'll love the resources available on our website and the e-mail alerts that we send, but these will never replace the time we spend with you, serving as your personal guide through this exciting process. Technology continues to advance every day, and it has forced many of us to change the way we communicate. It is more likely we will “Google” information versus “look it up.” Today, buyers trying to find Amelia Island real estate and local area properties can find that information through the internet in just minutes.  We will do our best to help you shorten your search even more. We use e-mail and the internet to effectively communicate with you to keep you up-to-date while you are working with us. But at some point, technology will take a back seat to personal contact and conversation. We look forward to meeting you and making a personal connection to help you find the property you will call "home."
