Spring Home Sales by Destin Real Estate

The team at Destin Real Estate is happy to congratulate these Spring home buyers and sellers on their new purchases and sales. After a stressful few months, the restraints on the market were lifted and it was back to business as usual in the Destin market. You'll notice from the "Days on Market" that these Destin and surrounding Emerald Coast listings weren't on the market for long.

The following Destin area homes and condos have either been "Sold" or accepted "Under Contract" in the last 2 months.

 Don't hesitate to contact Tim, or any of the team at Destin Real Estate to set up a private viewing of any Destin or nearby homes that interest you.
