Another great day and big win for the Panama City area !
On Thursday, February 14th 2008 a U.S. District Court judge again denied the airport opponents’ attempts to halt construction at the new Panama City – Bay County International Airport!
Airport Authority Chairman Joe Tannehill said construction was proceeding unrestricted, in accordance with our permits, and on schedule. Read more here.
The new Panama City International airport is being built on a 4,000-acre site in northwestern Bay County on land that was donated by The St. Joe Company.
With construction again underway, the expected opening of the new airport in 2010 is back on schedule and the future is once again bright for our communities economy and prosperity!

Don't let the media scare you from purchasing property...
Nearly every day I turn on the news and find the depressing media reporting the terrible condition of the real estate market.
What they fail to report is the degree to, and which markets are experiencing these conditions.
Take Panama City Beach Florida for example...
We are a tourist and popular vacation home location. Our crystal blue waters, white sandy beaches and family friendly atmosphere has and continues to make us a popular area for purhcasing second and vacation homes.
People from all over the world, contact me to purchase real estate in my area. I continue to receive phone calls and emails from customers who realize prices will not remain as they are in the Panama City Florida Area for long!
Condo sales increased last month over the previous month and prices haven't been this affordable in years.
However, a word of caution to sellers. It is still a buyers market. If you've bought property at the height of property prices (2003-2005) and are planning on selling to make a huge profit, you may want to rethink your strategy. We are not in a real estate "flipping" market. I would advise you continue to rent out your properties for a few more months.
If however, you want to place your property on the market because you are relocating, upsizing or down sizing this may be a good time for you.
I have provided area sales statistics on my website to give you a better idea of how homes are selling in the Panama City and Panama City Beach Bay County Florida real estate market.
Contact me today for a complete understanding of the Panama City-Bay County Florida real estate market condition.
Ask for my customized Community Report for any neighborhood in Bay County, Florida. I'd be happy to send you one, no obligation!

Customer Service – Part 2: Business and Customer Service on the Internet
If you've missed Part 1, you can read it here...
As the internet and computers become more common place in our daily lives, we find ourselves with less and less interaction on many levels. Example: The item I bought for $23.50 at the store I'd never been in, I now buy on the internet and pay the shipping costs rather than subject myself to the level of 'customer service' that store provides. At the same time, the items I purchased at the store with the friendly, helpful employee I continue to purchase at that store. Can I buy those items online? Sure I can, but I choose to do business with a helpful, courteous establishment that still WANTS me to be a satisfied customer.
The internet however, doesn't offer people interaction unless you are presented with an issue that a real person must intervene on your behalf. You can't get a smile or "Hi, can I help you" from a website. The level of customer service received is really based on whether that company provides me with timely delivery, valuable services and attention to my needs if a problem arises. But it is still customer service. If they deliver my goods unharmed, continue to provide me valuable services and assist me if I have issue I will continue to do business with them.
Case in point... Recently, a service I was receiving from an internet based company I do business with has been removed. It has been replaced with a service I don't feel I can rely on and directly affects my business! A task I could accomplish before at my leisure, I now have to rely on someone at the company to perform. I've contacted the company and asked them to restore this service and was told the service is no longer available and should never have been implemented. That’s interesting… A service which a customer finds of value and uses religiously should not have been implemented. Ok, then can you say “insert loud scream here”?
To quote a well known business statute: "Increasing competition is forcing businesses to pay much more attention to satisfying customers, including by providing strong customer service."
In my business, I offer the same level of customer service to every one of my clients and customers no matter what type of or how costly a property they are purchasing. I do my best to make sure that every interaction with my customer and every transaction I do on their behalf is a rewarding experience for them. If an issue arises I promptly attend to it and do my best to resolve it to my customers’ level of satisfaction.
Why? Because in the end, I want them to be satisfied, returning customers. I want their business, not just their immediate business, but their future business. I want them to know they are #1 and I will attend to their matters promptly and professionally. I want them to confidently refer me to friends and family knowing that I will treat their referrals with the same level of professionalism they received. It is this attitude and attention to customer service that is recognizing me as a leader in Panama City Fl Real Estate.
Services I offer are based not only on what I want to provide, but also the value of that service to the customer. I agree that as time progresses business’ must change to meet new demands, but removing a service without providing a viable alternative it not good customer service.
