LOVE Personalized!
Frill Seekers Gifts and Personalized Fabulous Finds
For centuries, savvy Southerners have been sporting their letters on everything from jewelry, clothing, cars and exquisite fine stationery to establish a form of identity. Ever wonder why monograms are so popular with celebrities, stylists and your BFF?

People want them for family traditions, new names upon marriage, new babies, new homes with the family’s personal home insignia or a beach house name. People love to feel connected to their ancestors and history. For many, monograms are a popular way to pass on their heritage, especially on pieces of jewelry. These personalized items become treasured heirlooms to pass down from generation to generation. The monogram trend isn’t new, especially in the South. Rulers as far back as the early Greek and Roman history would put their seal on currency to help identify from whence it came. In the Middle Ages, artists took the idea and applied monograms to their work as signatures. Even later, the Victorians also made monogramming their own to show off their wealth and status by wearing precious jewelry and expensive embroidery with their initials. Now’s the time to start your collection!

Once in A Lifetime Opportunity To Sell Your Home
Be On The Coast Real Estate Group
“When selling anything, you hope for strong demand for the item, coupled with a limited supply. That will maximize your leverage as you negotiate the sale. Home sellers are in that exact position right now,” according to Brian K. LoCicero REALTOR® with the Be On The Coast Real Estate team at Keller Williams. If you’re thinking about selling your house in 2022, you truly have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity at your fingertips. Here’s why.
Strong Demand. According to the latest Existing Home Sales Report from the National Association of Realtors (NAR), 6.18 million homes were sold in 2021, the largest number of home sales in 15 years. Demand isn’t expected to weaken this year, either. The Mortgage Finance Forecast, published by the Mortgage Bankers’ Association (MBA), calls for existing-home sales to reach 6.4 million homes this year.

Supply Is Very Limited. The same sales report from NAR also reveals inventory just hit the lowest of the century. “Total housing inventory at the end of December amounted to 910,000 units, down 18% from November and down 14.2% from one year ago (1.06 million). Unsold inventory sits at a 1.8-month supply at the present sales pace, down from 2.1 months in November and from 1.9 months in December 2020.”

Right now, savvy homeowners have maximum leverage—there may never be a better time to sell than right now. You need flexible negotiators that make very competitive offers. Tips in your favor when your house goes on the market: Competitive sales price; Flexible closing date; Potential for a leaseback to allow you more time to find a home; Minimal offer contingencies.

Now is the optimal time to list your home or condo. Contact Brian K. LoCicero, REALTOR® for a free analysis of your home and what price your property could bring in today’s competitive market: (850) 739-3800 or visit BeOnTheCoastRealEstate.com.
