As a resident of Robertsdale I have seen a number of listings sit on the market chasing the home buyers. The current market is not conducive to selling a home for more than the appraised value. Remember an appraisal is only valid for 6 months. I usually ask my sellers how motivated they are. If they say they just want to test the market, this probibly is not the time to sell. Remember you can not typically get a loan for 500,000 if it appraises at 400,000. From a buyer perspective why would they pay more than the appraisal? Just a few questions to think about. If I am not to late and can help you in any way please feel free to call me.

Goeff-
I love sailboat bay. It is so calm and peaceful. Do you already have a realtor hunting down the great buys out at Sailboat Bay? I would like an opportunity to interview as your buyers agent. I have been working at RE/MAX of Gulf Shores for over 4 years before that I sold real estate for Meyer Real Estate. I have lived along the coastline for over 30 years and I still am completely mesmurized everytime I am at the water. My information is listed below.

Laura,
I am sure you are aware your taxes are based on the value of property the previous year not your current tax year you are paying. Remember when we enjoyed the property going up and the property taxes remaining the same. Now they beat us while we're down. When the market began to drop the began to reassess the properties. I am sure you are aware the tax formula is 80% of the assessed value x .003 (millage rate) I hope this helps to understand. Not fair or good timing to begin raising taxes when insurance is so high and limited insurance availablility. The good new is we are starting to see relief on insurance yeah! Feel free to contact me atthe numbers below.
