Linda Miller is the Broker at ROSEMARY BEACH REALTY and proudly

represents the premier Traditional Neighborhood Development on

beautiful SCENIC HWY 30-A. Located on the "synergistic East end" of

Scenic 30-A, Rosemary Beach is only 25 minutes from the new

Northwest Florida Beaches International Airport (ECP). Rosemary

Beach was named the "wealthiest zip code" in Florida by Florida Trend

magazine in April 2014 (32461).

Linda Miller began "living the dream" of life in "Paradise" in 1998.

After growing up with the happiest memories of family times at the

beach, she fulfilled her childhood prediction that "one day I’m going to

live here"….The sugar white sands and crystal clear waters of the Gulf

coast etched in her mind, she knew this was the place she belonged.

Her appreciation for Seaside, Florida and the Traditional Neighborhood

Development (TND) concept led to her hobby of learning all about this

type of planned development that started over 30 years ago. These

Traditional Neighborhood Developments have grown into thriving

communities like Rosemary Beach & Alys Beach. Watercolor &

Watersound are also successful communities developed by St. Joe on

Scenic 30-A.

In 1998, she got her Florida Real Estate license and began selling

"Paradise" on 30-A. Linda has 16 years of experience and over $250

million in career sales. She was Realtor of the Year in 2004 & 2005

awarded by Emerald Coast Assn. of Realtors and her sales were are the

top 2% of ECAR’s 3000 agents. She was elected to the ECAR Board of

Directors and served for 3 years. IN 2004 & 2005, her sales exceeded

$55,000,000 each year and she was #1 Sales agent in her brokerage

Blessed with 6 Grandchildren, Linda loves the fact that they always

want to visit "Mimi" at the beach….and they bring their parents along

too. She would love to help you find a home for you & your family to

start making memories.

Linda is known as the "Smile of 30A". The map of Scenic Highway 30A

resembles a smile and she says "When you own property on 30A, you'll

be SMILING too!"

Linda Millers 17 Point Marketing Plan

Nine out of ten people begin their real estate searches online. According to the

National Association of Realtors, 92% of home buyers used the Internet as a

source of information during the house hunting process. Online marketing opens

doors for new clients long before a home buyer opens any doors.

But online marketing consists of more than just having a website. It involves

creating a presence, promoting your brand and engaging your audience. Linda’s

marketing plan is based on the following three (objectives)

1. Location, Location, Location. The three most important things in a home

also rings true for your digital marketing practices. In the summer of 2014,

Google updated its search algorithm to place a greater emphasis on local

results.

2. Go Mobile. The latest major update Google made to its algorithm gives a

rankings boost to websites that are mobile-friendly. All Linda’s web site are

optimized for smart phones and tablets.

3. Socialize. There's no ignoring Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Pinterest in

everyday life. Linda has a strong presence with all the social media

networks...Linda Millers Marketing Plan

The core of our marketing strategy is your custom website. With its unique

website address, buyers have direct access to HD photos and information

about your property.

Rosemary Beach® 20th Anniversary 20th Anniversary Celebration Issue

IT’S NOT TOO LATE…..

Twenty years ago, Rosemary Beach® was a "well-planned dream" for a

community that started with a plat map of land, a sales trailer, and a flag pole.

“Come build a community with us” was the theme to entice the first property

buyers and home builders. People familiar with the early success of Seaside

were the first to invest, I would guess. Brush covered the property where

rosemary grew wild, hence the name Rosemary Beach was a natural fit.

I remember riding in a golf cart with a Realty agent and picking out the $80,000

lot on the south side that I dreamed of for months. I would visit every time I was

here to watch the progress, and see that the prices went up each sales cycle.

And just like in the early days of Seaside, I missed it! I couldn’t find the funds or

the courage to “just do it!"

Now, 20 years later, IT’S NOT TOO LATE!! Some famous person said “they are

not making any more beachfront property”…and that’s true. But they also

aren’t making any more Rosemary Beach property and we are sold out of

vacant land, except for two lots with existing carriage houses. No matter where

you start your investment, you can move up gradually. We have a lot of

homeowners who start on the north side and then move closer to the beach

when the time is right.

My architect friend was one of the first buyers here. He saw the potential and

put a group of investors together to buy one of the first 35-foot gulf front lots

that was sold here in December 1996, for $265,000. Three years later, he was

offered $898,000 for his lot, sold it and the fun began! With his profits, he

bought a lot on the north side to build his home.

In 2000, Southern Accents magazine built a “Dream House” on the Gulf,

featured it on their magazine cover, and people came from all over the

Southeast to walk through. Rosemary Beach was on the map! That Southern

Accents house is the perfect example of what a great investment is…look at this

history for that gulf front 5-bedroom home:

In 2001, the first buyer paid $3,100,000.

In 2006, the second buyer paid $6,300,000.

(Note that the first buyer doubled their investment in 5 years)

In 2011, the third buyer paid $7,333,400.

It was recently listed for $11,700,000.

That’s over a 50% increase in four years, and almost four times what it originally

sold for 14 years ago.

Wow! Now, that’s an INVESTMENT.

As I said in the beginning, IT’S NOT TOO LATE for you to start your investment

strategy to become a Rosemary Beach homeowner. The examples above prove

what a great investment it can be, plus you get to own a beach house -- a place

you and your family can return to every year and holiday to make memories!

Real estate values come and go, but memories last forever.

What started out as a "dream with a plan" has now become a community with

2,500 feet of Gulf front property, 38 retail shops, 10 restaurants, 5 pools (one for

owners only), 8 clay tennis courts, a post office, and a fitness center. Over 150

full-time residents are "living the dream" everyday here…when will you?

Come by the Rosemary Beach Realty office and let us show you how…we love to

talk about real estate. You will be greeted with a smile, promise !
