Snartmove is good and easy. Set up the account and get their email and Smartmove takes it from there and you get the results in a very short time directly from smart move.

Just say NO to condo IMHO! Too much out of your control.

Hi Like,
First of all, well done for your accomplishments to date!! Not many your age can claim to have successfully built a business! I am responding also because I too reside in Atlantic Beach, and my wife is a local realtor. We have raised one entrepreneur son, who is in his 20's and already owns 3 properties and is partner in a General Construction business, so we admire and encourage that spirit in young people. You haven't specified how you envision entering this field. If you think either my wife or I can help, please send me a message and maybe we can explore your interests further.
Regards,
Gene

We use mysmartmove and have for several years with good results.
Give Lisa Kemp a call 9044449717. My wife and we are investors also with many years of construction and buy/sell experience. Can't hurt to have coffee and see if we can help. Keller Williams affiliate.

Its not for everyone, but I know it gives me monthly income, provides tax benefits, capital appreciation. Will the market write you a monthly check? Will a house suddenly drop 40% unannounced (if bought correctly)? You have to decide. I'm retired and I'm leaving the market for the young and foolish.....it is just too much out of my controlb as anymore.
www.sunbiz.org will get you pointed in the right direction.

@Walter Key, my wife is a local Keller Williams agent and would be happy to give your wife the local scoop if she would like to call her or have coffee sometime. Lisa Kemp, Keller Williams Atlantic Partners. PM me if she would like her number. BP won't let me post that. She has the same opinion of the local culture as Matt seems to.
