Dear Friends & Neighbors,

Marsha

I hope this letter finds you enjoying a wonderful summer. Summer at The Moorings is certainly less populated, but not necessarily less busy. It seems we go from wrapping up one season to preparing for the next! We continue to list and sell property and work on new projects to enhance our capability to better serve you.

The first half of the year brought some encouraging numbers in The Moorings’ real estate market. 1/1/11 - 6/3/11 saw an increase of 75% in house sales and an increase of 9% in condo sales over the same time period in 2010.* Buyers are beginning to realize the timing has never been better to purchase a home in The Moorings. Simply put, affordability, a plentiful selection of inventory and interest rates that are at an all time low have created the perfect buying environment.

By developing an understanding of your real estate needs, our objective is to provide you with relevant ideas, advice and solutions to help you achieve those goals. Our sales team’s expertise and hard work is evident by the recent statistics from the Board of Realtors. I am pleased to announce we continue to dominate the Moorings’ market and have brought more buyers to The Moorings than all other real estate companies combined!* In today’s challenging market, it is more important than ever to work with an agent and company that has the Buyers and the expertise to create sales.

Your Moorings Sales team remains excited and optimistic as they plan and look forward to what lies ahead. You will find Judy Hargarten (and her assistant, Susie Smith) and Terri McConnell (with her assistant, Mike Baron) hard at work, along with Erika Ross, who rejoined us four years ago (you may remember Erika from The Moorings Rental Dept. where she worked for ten years) and our newest addition, Daina Sakalas Bertrand. Daina grew up in The Moorings and is the daughter of long time Moorings’ residents, Romas and Dana Sakalas. After almost 30 years, Jerry Sauter has decided to give up his office, but not his real estate license! He remains active in The Moorings, continuing to list and sell property, but is (deservingly so) spending more time on the golf course. Through these changing times, our mission remains the same; preserving, protecting and promoting a lifestyle unparalleled. We bring a wealth of resources and decades of Moorings’ expertise. Here, at The Moorings Realty Sales Co., we understand selling and buying a home is an important personal decision, which makes it important for us to provide you with the best service possible!

What’s Upstairs?

We extend a heartfelt welcome to the Serovich Family who recently purchased a home on Windward Way. Although they had lived in Vero Beach before, they have spent the last four years in Dallas, Texas. Upon returning to Vero, they knew The Moorings would provide the perfect neighborhood to raise their growing family. They have re-joined The Moorings Club and enjoy all the amenities our wonderful community has to offer. John loves having their boat in their “backyard” and the children can’t get enough of fi shing and manatee watching! In the back row, are John and his wife, Amy. In front are twins, Alissa and Brielle, 8 and John Christian, 6.
