10 Years and Still Going Strong!

On Nov. 18th Alice Edwards celebrated her 10 year anniversary with the Deltona Corporation.

Each month in our joint business meeting we go over the birthdays for the month and the anniversaries of those employed here. Most everything has changed in the recent years and new divisions were created – so we have very few who have been here long term. So when it was announced that Alice Edwards had been here 10 years, everyone said we should have a surprise party and that’s what we did!


The celebration took place at the Deltona Realty office in the St. Augustine shores, where there are 4 agents ready and waiting to help you with your real estate needs.

Deltona also has an office in World Golf Village in the Shoppes at Murabella. There you will find 6 more agents ready to find you a home, or take you around to Homes by Deltona‘s 5 different communities in the area: Laterra Links, San Savino, Portofino, Isles of the World, and Grand Ravine.

Homes by Deltona Giving Back to the Communty

With its reputation as Florida’s top-performing school district, the fact that homeless children attend St. Johns County schools came as somewhat of a surprise to me when I attended my granddaughter’s open house at Wards Creek Elementary.

I asked Don Campbell, the principal, what the school’s needs were, and that’s when I learned about the homeless children. With school starting, these children didn’t have the supplies they needed.

The quality of the St. Johns County school system is a major factor for our homebuyers in each of our five Florida golf communities – Laterra Links, San Savino, Portofino, Isles of the World and Grand Ravine. And while we’re extremely proud of the school system that our residents enjoy, it’s important not to overlook the needs that still exist, even in such a prosperous community.

After getting the supplies list from the principal, I’m proud to say that the Homes by Deltona sales agents stepped up to the plate to purchase the school supplies that these children needed.

There are so many ways to give back to our community, and this is just one example. How do you give back? Please share your experiences helping to meet the needs in our community and let others know how they can contribute.

SAM Tram Visits World Golf Village!

We were excited to host top Jacksonville Realtors on October 7 when the SAM Tram came to World Golf Village. The Northeast Florida Builders Association’s Sales and Marketing Council organizes the “SAM” (for Sales and Marketing) Tram two to three times a year, providing tours of new communities in St. Augustine and Jacksonville to Realtors and affiliates. On the tours, builders and developers showcase their homes and answer questions for Realtors.

On the October 7th tour, we provided breakfast at the Laterra Links clubhouse and showcased the Pinehurst model, which recently won the overall “Judge’s Choice” award at the St. Johns County Builders Association Parade of Homes. This home has 2,160 square feet, all on the ground level. It includes a screened lanai, attached two-car garage, 10-foot ceilings, three bedrooms, two baths and a large flex space that can serve as a dining room, office or den.

We also showcased the Barton Creek model in Isles of the World (pictured above), which offers five bedrooms, three and one-half bathrooms, a first-floor master bedroom, a grand room that can be open or divided with a fireplace and entertainment wall, and a large private courtyard.

If you are interested in seeing the homes for yourself, please contact Karen Palmer at 904-940-5388.
