A Growing Family's Dream Home: How Heather Buckman Helped Longtime Clients Find the Perfect Fit in San Marco

Helping families find a home that grows with them is always a rewarding experience, especially when they’re clients you’ve worked with before. Recently, our Broker and Owner Heather Buckman guided a family through their next chapter, securing a spacious mid-century home in a kid-friendly neighborhood that perfectly meets their needs. Here’s how Heather helped them land this beautiful family retreat.


A Familiar Partnership

Heather first met this family years ago when they moved back to Jacksonville with their young children, eager to put down roots. She helped them find a home at that time, and as the years passed and their needs changed, they decided that they needed more space.

Priorities: Family, Space, and Location

For this move, location was a top priority. With family nearby in San Marco, they wanted to stay close to loved ones while also finding a home with the right layout and space for their family of five.  They found all of that on Granada Boulevard - a stunning mid-century home on a welcoming, kid-friendly street with plenty of room for everyone to enjoy. This property also featured a pool—a perfect addition for the whole family to enjoy Florida's warm weather.

Overcoming Challenges with Expert Negotiation

While the home was in excellent condition overall, it did have an extensive flat roof that posed a unique challenge. Heather worked diligently to address her clients’ concerns and protect their investment. Using her expert negotiation skills, she helped the buyers secure a credit to cover a new roof -  ensuring that the family could move in with peace of mind and a strong foundation for the future.

A Family’s Forever Home

Heather’s dedication to finding the ideal property and securing the best possible terms made this transaction a success. This family’s journey highlights her commitment to guiding clients through each stage of their homeownership experience, whether they’re new to the area or expanding for a growing family. Heather’s knowledge, patience, and unwavering focus on her clients’ needs helped turn their dream of a spacious, family-oriented home into a reality.
