The primary pros include Florida’s tax advantages, top-ranked St. Johns County schools, and a high quality of life. The cons typically involve rising insurance premiums and seasonal traffic. Our blog features a "Relocation Guide" series that breaks down these factors by neighborhood to help you avoid common "moving mistakes."

If flood resilience is your priority, look toward the mainland ridges and newer developments like Palencia or RiverTown. Our blog's "Flood Zone Guide" explains how to read elevation certificates and details the 2026 FEMA CRS discounts available to residents in specific St. Johns County zones.

Yes, but zoning is strictly enforced. Short-term rentals (STRs) are most viable in the HP-1 and RG-1 districts. We maintain a frequently updated blog post regarding St. Augustine’s shifting rental ordinances to ensure investors stay compliant with city and county regulations.

A Community Development District (CDD) fee is a non-ad valorem assessment used to fund infrastructure in newer communities. Our blog provides a comparison table of CDD fees across Nocatee, Shearwater, and Beacon Lake, helping buyers calculate their true "all-in" monthly carrying costs.

You can access our Monthly Market Snapshots on our blog. Unlike national real estate sites, we provide hyper-local commentary on Northeast Florida trends, including "Days on Market" and "Sale-to-List Ratios" for specific neighborhoods like Davis Shores and Lincolnville.
