Admirals Cove has some of the most expensive Jupiter real estate for sale. But if you are an Admirals Cove seller, you should think about what I have to say in this video.
So expensive or not, flooring is a critical issue when selling your home. Remember there are plenty of great homes for sale in Admirals Cove for buyers to choose from. Many have deep water docks and soaring ceilings, but flooring can be a critical component to your successful sale. It isn't the money, it's the project and people buy houses, they don't buy projects.
Thinking of selling or having trouble selling? Let's talk. Usually just a 1% improvement in your value proposition can get you the results you need to move your life forward.

Admirals Cove homes: Test your agent...got a phone?
Several years ago when the Internet was "introduced" real estate agents began to migrate to websites to display their listings and comb the web for buyers. In fact, there is now every conceivable opportunity to look at homes on the web, now called Web 2.0. But here is my challenge: Are you really any better off?
In the "old days" real estate listings were published in a book each week and buyers had to pour over pages for small print to find possible houses.
Then the Internet allowed us all to see things quickly and easily anytime, anywhere. But consider what it has also brought us: clutter, jammed Inboxes and digital overload.
How has email made things simpler? Does your Inbox have too much stuff each day? Do you spend some time every day adding people to your blocked senders list and deleting things? Of course you do. Email has now suffered the same fate snail mail did, that is "junk mail". In fact your first task when going to your mailbox is to stop at your recycling and throw most of the stuff out.
How about your home phone...if you still have one? Many people don't even answer the phone any more since it is plagued by robo-calls that are not policed by the DNC list. They just let the phone go to the answering machine (if they still have one) and sort out what messages they want to hear at a later time.
So based on these two things, why would a buyer prowl the Internet signing up on every website only to have the results be lots of information they don't want? All the information comes from the same MLS database. IT IS ALL THE SAME INFORMATION.
Every website, whether it be personal, corporate, Realtor.com, Homes.com, Zillow, Trulia and on and on...are all providing the same information. The ONLY difference is the display format and some companies are spending a fortune to try and display it attractively. So what do I suggest? Stop searching for houses and instead search for an agent.
A great agent has tools and software that are better than anything offered on the web. A great agent knows the market, both geographically and financially. A great agent knows how to communicate and I don't mean tweeting.
Now here is the really crazy idea: If you are really serious about buying, how about calling someone? I know this is a radical idea but you can test their effective with a simple call. If you don't get a return call within say an hour or two, just move on to another agent. Hey, getting an automated email response to signing on to a website telling you how important you are is not communication.
Let's face it, given a chance everyone pushes the "0" button to speak with a Customer Service Representative so do the same when looking for a home.
OK, give me a test. Looking for a home in this area? Call me, Richard Sites, at 561-762-4073, and see how I do. I have lived in Jupiter for 25 years, I know the area and I know how to answer my phone. And as the commercials say, "No salesman will call".

Admirals Cove and Jonathan's Landing get ready for the season
Admirals Cove and Jonathan's Landing Golf Club are premier Jupiter locations with waterfront estate homes and golf courses. As we head into "the season" all our country clubs, like Admirals Cove, Mirasol, BallenIsles and Frenchman's Creek, are putting the finishing touches on their "sprucing up".
In fact, Admirals is hoping to finish a multi-million dollar renovation before the season starts which is around November 1. Our winter season is the busiest time of the social season and everyone wants to be ready for it.
The weather is perfect for golf or anything outside, the sailfish are biting on windy days and there are plenty of holidays to celebrate.
Jonathan's Landing ordered some new palms and here they are seen arriving at the Club. Jonathan's Landing shares an Intracoastal location with Admirals Cove and both have ocean access via the Jupiter Inlet about a 10 minute boat ride up the waterway.
There are over 60 homes on the market priced as high as $8+ million. Club membership is mandatory in Admirals and most clubs but not at Jonathan's Landing.

Admirals Cove and Jonathan's Landing waterfront properties
Jupiter's well known club, Admirals Cove, is a yachting community of 941 homes located along 6 miles of waterways and close to the Intracoastal. Here, stately mansions mix with Harbour Homes and villas to offer potential residents a wide variety of options. One central community is Captains Way located close to the main clubhouse and there are several properties currently on the market.
Captains Way homes are designed with 4 units per building and range in price from $299,000 to $950,000. Living square footage ranges from near 1,800 to near 2,900 feet. With such a wide range of prices, it is easy to see that the market for these homes is struggling to find itself.
However, no matter which price is in your range, all the homes for sale on Captains Way share waterfront locations, golf course and tennis views and proximity to the main clubhouse. Of course, all Admirals Cove residents also enjoy access to the Golf Village which can be enjoyed after a brief golf cart ride across Alternate A1A.
Captains Way is located on the East side of Admirals where the architectual design is "Bermuda style". The Golf Village, with it's own clubhouse, has the feel of Pinehurst or other famous golf venues. Either way there are 45 holes of golf available. The Golf Village waterfront properties have lake views as opposed to the salt water views found near Captains Way.
Membership in Admirals Cove is mandatory for all residents and non-resident memberships are not permitted. Typically a membership is sold with the house so if you don't want a full golf membership you might need to find a home offering a sports or the rare social membership. There are a very few original homes occasionally offered that do not have any membership attached to them.
If the membership obligation is an issue, you might consider homes for sale in Jonathan's Landing located on the north side of Admirals Cove. Here, over 1,200 homes priced from around $ 200,000 to nearly $ 5 million, offer lake and salt water locations and those on salt water have the same ocean access as Admirals Cove. The big difference is that Jonathan's Landing does not require membership and even the full golf membership is only about 1/3 of the cost of the full membership in Admirals. Jonathan's Landing offers the same high level of security and two clubhouses but also offers 3 full golf courses and a dry storage marina for boats to 30 feet, things not available in Admirals Cove.
