And the island is BUSY!!
Don’t forget to purchase your seasonal beach tags before the end of the month 🙂

On this day 22 years ago, I joined the Tim Kerr Sotheby’s International Realty team.
We were Tim Kerr’s Power Play Realty at the time- a small boutique agency with an office in Avalon.
In recent years, we have expanded to 4 offices from Cape May to Sea Isle City, yet remain independently owned and operated by the Kerr family.
Our franchise affiliation with Sotheby’s allows us to compete on a higher level with professional marketing and exposure. Our staff of experienced local experts provides a superior level of service. The best of both worlds!
I am so fortunate to work in my home town, along side great co-workers and friends.

Exceptionally well maintained upside down style home.
Unique rear yard oasis featuring a custom outdoor kitchen and sitting area.
4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, plus an extra family room with a built in bar.

There have been a few news pieces regarding the 2024 rental season at the Jersey Shore.
The most recent: https://www.inquirer.com/newsletters/shore/jersey-shore-rentals-boardwalk-20240711.html
A few thoughts: Owners with repeat tenants who kept their price increases to a minimum are experiencing a solid rental season.
Property owners new to the rental market (or those with weeks not rented by January or February) have felt the shift in our market the most.
Adding amenities (that are ironically considered the norm in most other vacation rental markets) such as sheets and towels, some paper products, beach tags, beach equipments, etc. definitely helps. Being open to allowing a pet (with references) may also fill un-rented weeks.
The Jersey Shore rental environment has been slow to evolve. Look how long it took for change over cleaning to be included in the rent!
Yet we have to keep up with tenant expectations, and provide good value, in order to be competitive with other high end travel destinations.
