Real Estate Doesn't Get Any Easier Than This
Can buying a Watercolor foreclosure or a Rosemary Beach Short Sale get any easier than The Moran Team's Name Your Price program?
Here's how Name Your Price works:
Simply use the form (click here for the form) to tell us if you are a buyer or a seller, what you would like to buy or sell and what you are willing to spend or take for a property.
For example: I'm a buyer looking for Grayton Beach Real Estate - a 3 bedroom house and I am willing to pay $800,000 - or - I am a seller who owns a two bedroom Seacrest Beach Florida condo and I would sell it for $350,000.
We will then go to work looking for sellers or buyers that meet your requirements.
Once we find a potential match, we will contact you to begin the negotiation process.
You end up with a successful deal, or we move on and continue looking for another buyer or seller.

Of course if you own a vaction home or condo at the beach in South Walton County Florida, or any real estate At The Beach, you are going to need insurance and even though State Farm is no longer writing policies there are still companies that will.

Five Reasons Rosemary Beach is Unique and Special
Rosemary Beach Florida is the kind of place where you simply can't be anything but easygoing and relaxed. There are no cars need, simply park, unpack, change into beach clothes and head to the beach - walk with the kids or ride a bike, it really doesn't matter because you will get there in a few minutes either way from almost anywhere in town. So what makes Rosemary Beach so specical?
The Architecture
The incredible architecture employed for both homes and businesses demands that you slow down and look around. The details of the design are proudly on display in the odd shapes, sloping angles and unexpected curves found on virtually every structure in town. You certainly do not have to be a student of architecture to understand that Rosemary Beach Florida is a very special place.
The Green Spaces
I challenge anyone walking past one of the green spaces not to stop and roll a game of Bocce Ball on the lawn, toss a football around with friends or simply watch time stand still as you wrestle with your kids in the soft grass.
The Dining
On the way back from the beach you may want to stop and get a quick snack at one of a number of great little eateries and food shops that fill out Main Street. Of course, don't eat too much because there are also some great fine dining places as well.
The Shopping
Stroll down Main Street and take in great shopping for yourself, the kids and even your home. There is something for everyone in Rosemary Beach Florida.
The Beach
Splash in the waves and build sand castles in the snow white sand with your kids at one the most beautiful beaches in the world.
