Leave a comment » Jacksonville Florida Median Home prices 2008 and 2007Where are the Home values in Jacksonville Florida going?Market reports aren’t complete until you’ve talked about home values. The chart below shows what the median home prices are for Jacksonville in 2007 and 2008, from January to the present. 2008 numbers are in red. What does median home price mean? We’ll use January as an example. $163,900 is the median home price (homes that sold) in January 2008, it represents the the price at which half of the homes sold are more expensive and the other half are less expensive. This gives you a general idea of where our values are. To really get an accurate number for your home though, you need to look at the homes that have sold in your neighborhood.

Leave a comment » Before you purchase or remodel an older home in Jacksonville Florida........Asbestos Removal and Greener Alternatives
There are many things to consider when remodeling or purchasing an older home. Homes built before 1980 have the strong likelihood of containing asbestos. Due to a steady progression of technology and green sustainable methods, there are many ways to ensure your home or property is asbestos free. If you are interested in saving money, remodeling and improving your carbon footprint, here is some information to get you on the right track. Used in millions of homes throughout the last quarter of the 20th century, asbestos insulation can become a real dilemma for homeowners due to causing a variety of health problems, including Peritoneal Mesothelioma and Malignant Mesothelioma. These types of cancer take the lives of thousands each year. Non-regulated asbestos material can be legally performed by homeowners, regular contractors, or licensed asbestos abatement contractors as long as the National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) are not violated. Asbestos removal in public facilities, homes and workplaces must be undertaken by a licensed asbestos abatement contractor. Once the removal is complete, green insulation options should be given serious consideration, such as: Cellulose, Cotton Fiber and Lcynene. The United States Green Building Council (USGBC), in a study conducted in 2003, estimated a savings of $50-$65 per square foot for well-constructed green buildings in the U.S. (see table below) during that year. The numbers continue to improve as more eco-friendly options become available, and those kinds of figures have finally begun to attract those who thought eco-friendly construction was just a bunch of hogwash.
