Irish Roots
Happy St. Patrick’s Day! Â
On my father’s side: my grandmother was born in County Clare in the Republic of Ireland, and my grandfather grew up near Ballymena and the Antrim Coast in Northern Ireland. A real mixed marriage!
They met and married in Philadelphia, and vacationed in Stone Harbor each summer while raising 6 children (pictured in front of their rental cottage).  In the 1950s, my grandparents built a year round home in Avalon. A family business brought the sons and daughters (some with spouses and young children) from Philadelphia to Avalon shortly thereafter.
After visiting the beautiful windswept coast of Northern Ireland, I can totally understand my grandfather’s love of the shore.
Sand in our shoes… and salt air in our lungs 😉
Sláinte!

Counting Down to Spring
Plumbers are turning on the water for property owners, business owners are on site preparing for opening day, and I just ordered my beach tags. Â It MUST be spring 🙂

Email issues
My email accounts went rogue – and even created some messages in Spanish!
Passwords have been changed and all back to normal.
Technology is amazing…when it works properly!

Seller’s Market
Yes, you read that right!
After years of bumping along with a steady market, sellers are benefiting from strong buyer interest, and sometimes even multiple offers.
Buyers are savvy, and recognize a well priced sale listing.
If you are thinking about selling (maybe it’s time to move up??) please give me call to discuss values.

Spring at the Shore
The 70 degree temperatures forecasted this week are not likely for locations close to the ocean.
That wonderful sea breeze we appreciate all summer long often makes for cool spring weather.
If you are riding down and planning a walk on the beach…bring an extra layer to block the chilly air!
