The Flagler County Commercial Committee announced that a database of available commercial property in the county will be made live June 30, through Enterprise Flagler.
Margaret Sheehan-Jones, Flagler County Association of Realtors chairperson and head of the Parkside Realty Group’s Commercial Division, is in love with her current project.
After six years of talking about it and a year of planning, she said, Flagler County will finally have an all-inclusive, specs-included, centralized base on which to advertise every piece of its available commercial real estate — raw land to leases — to prospective buyers.
If this works — and there’s no reason it shouldn’t, she said — the system won’t just benefit those who “speak commercial,” but also contribute strokes of color to the grander portrait of regional economic development.
“It makes nothing but perfect sense to be involved,” she said. “This is a chance to have information about your properties available to the site selectors, corporations, people coming to the area. It’s a tremendous, tremendous marketing opportunity.”
Enterprise Flagler Director Greg Rawls, whose organization will host the new database on its website, agrees. “It’s going be a huge tool,” he said. “I can’t see it not helping promote sales.”
The former system just wasn’t efficient, according to Sheehan-Jones. It was every organization for itself. Real estate ads were being posted independently on disjointed sites and servers. Yes, the Multiple Listing Service was available, but its commercial section was always the “stepchild” of the rest of the system, she said, an afterthought to residential listings.
But the new “state-of-the-art” Navica-based system, which is scheduled for launch through Enterprise Flagler’s site by June 30, will establish a one-stop shop for buyers local and out of county.
“We have never had one location where (prospectors) from out of the area could really access what’s here on the market, what’s available, and what’s the status of every parcel of land,” she said. “It’s always been fragmented.”
But not anymore. According to Rawls, “It’s definitely going to help.”
“Marketing is all about exposure,” Sheehan-Jones said. “Our exposure increases, our hit rate increases.”
The Commercial Committee solicited input from developers, real estate agents, banks, title companies, the Chamber of Commerce and other organizations to make the system as rounded as possible. Hundreds of volunteer hours have been poured into the project, Sheehan-Jones said, and she looks forward to seeing that collective vision come to life.
“It’s all part of the bigger picture, which is economic development,” she said. “It’s really giving Flagler County yet another advantage.”
Enterprise Flagler staff will work as a survey team to ensure that certified sites remain updated in the system; individual real estate agents will be responsible for upkeep of the MLS.
“The timing of this is perfect, with all the positive economic development growth going on in Flagler,” she said. “… We’re more than a little bit excited about it.”
