Candace and Rick are affiliated with Alice Collins at Century 21 Collins Realty, Inc., St. George Island, FL.  Alice has been in business on St. George Island for over thirty years.

The "Forgotten Coast" on Florida's Panhandle is Florida the way it used to be:  beautiful beaches with more birds than people, low density development with no high rises and charming port villages where sailors and fishermen flock to the marinas.  St. George Island is the crown jewel of the barrier islands that grace the "Forgotten Coast."   Four miles out in the Gulf of Mexico, St. George is one of the last unspoiled sea islands of Florida.  St. George offers stretches of beautiful uncrowded beaches for sunning and shelling, clear Gulf waters for swimming and sailing, excellent fishing in the Gulf and Bay and pristine marshes and wooded areas for birdwatchers and wildlife lovers.

However, the "Forgotten Coast" is no longer forgotten.  It has been discovered and is attracting investors from all over the country. Property values on St. George have risen dramatically in recent years, but are still bargains compared to many coastal areas in Florida. The low-density controls that are in place with no high rises protect values and make St. George the perfect island investment.  .

St. George has a robust vacation rental market. Rental income can be substantial, making an island home more easily obtainable.  Collins Vacation Rentals, Inc. handles bookings and maintenance, so renting your home can be hassle-free.

Retirement accounts can be used for the purchase of certain investment properties.  If you own investment property elsewhere, you may want to consider a Section 1031 Tax Free Exchange.  Additionally, you may want to join together with friends or others investors to purchase property.

Whether you're looking for investment property or that dream home, you'll discover why investing in St. George Island and the once "Forgotten Coast" will be the "jewel" of your portfolio Contact us and we will be happy to send you more information.
