ONE PROPERTY. TWO HOMES. ONE BLOCK FROM THE BEACH.

What if you could own a place on Amelia Island and have a second residence helping offset the cost of ownership?

That’s the opportunity at 2727 1st Ave in Fernandina Beach.

With two separate 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath residences, approximately 2,100 square feet combined, separate utilities and a location just one block from the beach, this property offers flexibility that a traditional single-family home simply doesn't.

🏡 Live in one side and rent the other.
💰 Rent both sides.
🌴 Or use the second residence for family and guests.

We're looking for the buyer who sees the possibilities.

🏡 Moving in Florida? Don’t overlook Property Tax Portability!

If you’ve owned your Florida homestead for several years, you may have built up a valuable Save Our Homes (SOH) benefit. When you move to another Florida homestead, you may be able to transfer some or all of that benefit to your new home—potentially reducing the assessed value used to calculate your property taxes.

And there’s an important detail: Portability isn’t automatic. You must apply when establishing your new homestead.

In our latest article, we break down how portability works, including what happens when you’re downsizing or moving to a home with a different market value.

Thinking about making a move? Read the full article to understand what you should know about Florida’s Property Tax Portability.

And remember, we’re Realtors—not tax professionals. We can help with market value information, while your county Property Appraiser can confirm your eligibility and exact portability benefit.

📩 Have questions about your next move? Send us a message—we’d be happy to help!

Nassau County Property Tax Part 1
You received your TRIM notice—now what?

If you own property in Nassau County, your TRIM (Truth in Millage) notice is an important document to review. Here’s what to know:

📄 The 3 columns:
• Prior-year taxes
• Current taxes based on existing budgets
• Maximum with proposed taxes

The third column often ends up closest to the final tax bill. You can also attend your local taxing authorities’ budget hearings to learn more and share your opinion about proposed tax rates.

🔎 Look at the bottom: Your notice shows your Market Value, Assessed Value, Exemptions, and Taxable Value. For homesteaded properties, assessed value is protected from annual increases of more than 3%, which can create a significant difference between your market and assessed values over time.

📅 Key dates:
January 1 – Property status, ownership & residency
March 1 – Homestead exemption deadline
August – TRIM notices
November 1 – Tax bills mailed

Disagree with the market value of your property? You can appeal with the Property Appraiser. Don't wait—address concerns between receiving your TRIM notice and mid-October.

When purchasing a home, don't assume you'll pay the seller's current tax bill. A change in ownership can reset the assessed value.

For tax-specific questions, always consult the Nassau County Property Appraiser or a qualified tax professional.

Have questions about how property taxes may affect your next real-estate move? Send us a message - We're happy to help!

📊 JULY 2026 MARKET UPDATE | Amelia Island–Nassau County

Is our local market beginning to find its balance? The July numbers give us some encouraging signs. One month doesn’t make a trend, but there are reasons to believe we may be moving in that direction.

Single-Family Homes
• 127 closed sales — down 3.1% year-over-year
• Median sale price: $470,000 — down 5.8%
• Average sale price: $644,317 — down 2.4%
• Median time to contract: 74 days — up 32.1%
• 188 new listings — up 6.2%
• 148 pending sales — up 5.7%

The increase in pending sales is especially interesting. More buyers are writing contracts while sellers are bringing more homes to market—a potentially positive sign of renewed activity.

The condo market tells a slightly different story. The median sale price increased 0.4% to $670,000, while the average sale price jumped 21.2% to $946,857. Pending sales increased 17.6%, while inventory declined 22.8%. With 6.8 months of supply, condos remain more favorable to buyers, making pricing, condition, and presentation especially important.

The takeaway for sellers: Strategic pricing matters. Well-positioned homes are attracting attention, while overpriced properties are sitting longer—and often aren’t getting showings.

For buyers, increased time on market can create opportunities to negotiate and make thoughtful decisions.
