December Newsletter: Season’s Greetings

December 22, 2020 by Team Fedeles

Season’s Greetings from St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands!

The U.S. Virgin Islands was just named the Destination of the Year in the Caribbean Journal Caribbean Travel Awards 2021!

For anyone planning to travel to St. Croix in the coming month, be sure to visit the USVI COVID-19 Travel Screening Portal. This will give you all the information you need to travel to the U.S. Virgin Islands. American Airlines recently started offering at-home testing through LetsGetChecked. We look forward to seeing you and would be happy to schedule a COVID-safe home showing if you’re in the market for St. Croix real estate!

This Fall, Governor Bryan announced his USVI Vision 2040 economic development strategy. Vision 2040 is an interactive, participatory process to produce a long-term economic strategy and action plan that positions the U.S. Virgin Islands as a vibrant, desirable place to live, work, and visit, and as a prosperous business location that is competitive based on its abilities to develop, retain, and attract a skilled workforce with creativity and imagination. There are many opportunities to share your ideas, priorities, and concerns for the future economy of the U.S. Virgin Islands, so be sure to participate in a virtual open house or submit comments.

In September, our own Stephen Swanton received the Good Neighbor Award from the St. Croix Board of Realtors. Stephen was recognized for his work with Virgin Islands Triathlon Federation. He was awarded $1,000 to support VITF’s mission and Coldwell Banker Schmidt Family of Companies matched the donation through their Schmidt Community Fund. As many of your know, Stephen exhibits the same focus and eye toward success in real estate as he does in competition. Team Fedeles is lucky to have him on board! Learn more about the Good Neighbor Award and Stephen’s work with VITF.

As a member of Ha’Penny Bay Beach Club, I’m excited to share our holiday offering of a one-year membership for half price! Become a member of The Club for $650 per person and no initiation fee. Club benefits include monthly lunches, dinners and brunches, use of The Club for private events, holiday and special events, use of the facilities when visiting Ha’Penny Beach, and more. Of course, for now activities and events are somewhat limited due to COVID; however, our open-air dining room is the perfect place to spend socially distanced time with new and old friends!

The St. Croix real estate market is very active right now. Congratulations to our Sellers of Romney Point and Meggie Hill! If you have been on the fence about listing, now is the time! In fact, according to the latest Market Watch, houses sold for 28% more and condos sold for 25% more as compared to the same period last year. Contact info@fedeles.com for an assessment of your property and to discuss how we can assist, whether to sell or to buy…it is a great time on both accounts!

Wishing you many joys this holiday season and a prosperous 2021!

Warm regards,
Team Fedeles

Caribbean Travel Awards 2021

December 15, 2020 by Team Fedeles

The US Virgin Islands have been named the Destination of the Year in the Caribbean Travel Awards 2021 by Caribbean Journal. This is the 7th annual edition of the awards and it’s exciting to see a photo of St. Croix’s Protestant Cay right there on the home page!

The article points out that, “in six months, the Caribbean has largely set a global example for how to reopen in a careful, focused, safe manner — providing its signature sanctuary for travelers and an important injection of economic energy.” Then goes on to say that, “the USVI has been a model for tourism reopenings around the region…”

The USVI Travel Portal can be found at www.usvitravelportal.com.

Stephen Swanton Receives Good Neighbor Award

September 30, 2020 by Team Fedeles

Congratulations to our own Stephen Swanton for receiving the Good Neighbor Award from the St. Croix Board of Realtors! Stephen was recognized for his work with Virgin Islands Triathlon Federation. He was awarded $1,000 to support VITF’s mission to serve youth in the community through multi-sport education, clinics, camps and events, engaging youth to instill habits of health, fitness and recreation.

As an accomplished triathlete, a certified triathlon coach and elite cyclist, Stephen has been involved with VITF since 2015. He has served on the Board of Directors for four years and is currently the Vice President STT/STJ.

I have found that participation in sport not only instills habits of health, fitness and recreation, but also develops a sense of good sportsmanship and mental fortitude that carries into many facets of life. This organization welcomed me with open arms and made me feel at home on St. Croix since coming here in 2015.”

As an added bonus, the Coldwell Banker Schmidt Family of Companies matched the $1,000 donation through their Schmidt Community Fund. Giving back is at the core of Coldwell Banker St. Croix Realty’s overall mission and values. Many of our agents are active within the St. Croix community, donating time, money and resources to various charities and non-profit organizations on island.

Stephen pointed out how helpful the award has been, especially during a time when most of the organization’s fundraising efforts have been put on hold due to COVID-19. “We allocated the donation to Junior-Tri VI program and hope to begin hosting events for our junior athletes as soon as it is safe to do so.”

September Newsletter: Grab Your Toothbrush

September 14, 2020 by Team Fedeles

We hope this note finds you healthy and in good spirits. As St. Croix moves back into a “Safer At Home” mode, Team Fedeles continues to take precautions as we help our clients’ dreams come true.

If you’ve looked at The Wall Street Journal recently, you may have seen a spectacular St. Croix villa featured in the Mansions section. This was none other than our listing, La Belle Hortense, and our wonderful clients, The Stapleton’s, in an article about luxury turnkey properties. But don’t take WSJ’s word for it — grab your toothbrush and come to St. Croix!

We also received the kindest praise from The Jensen’s, who have owned two plots of land and two Villa Madeleine condos over the past 18 years. Team Fedeles recently negotiated the sale of one plot of land and, prior to that, their condo.

This has been a strange year to say the least. One of the highlights for me has been carryout and socially distanced meals from Ha’Penny Bay Beach Club — and I’m really looking forward to getting back to good times with my Ha’Penny friends this Fall. Tuesday dinners by Chef Loni are phenomenal (my mouth is watering just thinking about her chilled cucumber soup). Thursday game days are fun and again with Chef Loni’s amazing food for lunch! Our annual night with the Governor is such a special opportunity — here’s a photo of me with Governor Bryan taken at Governor’s Night. And I can’t imagine holidays without my Ha’Penny family. If you are looking for ways to connect with new island friends and would like to consider membership, check out the new Ha’Penny Bay Beach Club web site and like the Club on Facebook.

Are you ready to sell your St. Croix property? Per the Real Estate Market Watch below, home, condo and land sale prices are up, up, up! Contact us today for an assessment.

Featured Client: Turnkey Properties

September 8, 2020 by Team Fedeles

The Wall Street Journal recently featured our clients, The Stapleton’s, in an article about turnkey properties in the Mansions section. The article, In the Caribbean and Bahamas, Turnkey Properties Are the Biggest Luxury, shares how vacation-home buyers in hard-to-reach destinations opt for fully furnished properties.

Turnkey properties, or as the article calls them, “toothbrush ready,” are pretty common on St. Croix. As such, many homes are sold furnished or partially furnished. This 8,000 sq. ft. residence in Estate Shoys, named La Belle Hortense, is offered with tasteful art and furnishings, so you truly only need to bring your toothbrush!

The main house of this turnkey property has 4 bedrooms and 4 en suite baths. Plus, there is a detached one bedroom with one bath guest house. Outdoors is a beautiful courtyard, pool, BBQ and wet bar. Meanwhile, inside is a gourmet chef’s kitchen, deluxe wine cooler, spacious closets, and the finest in amenities and finishes. The home is a practical investment, too, with solar and net metering, private well and drinking water filtration, and hurricane resistant windows.

Perhaps one of the most important features…La Belle Hortense is just steps away from sandy Shoys Beach.

Featured Client: No Strangers to St. Croix

August 28, 2020 by Team Fedeles

Vinnie and Anita Jensen, of Dawsonville, GA, are no strangers to St. Croix. they have been long-time visitors and have owned property on St. Croix since 2002. In fact, they have been two-time lot owners and two-time Villa Madeleine owners over the years.

Team Fedeles recently worked with them to sell a Villa Madeleine condo and a plot of land. The land transaction required several rounds of negotiation and resulted in a favorable outcome for our happy clients.

The Jensen’s have visited St. Croix frequently over the years. They had originally intended to move to St. Croix; however, family medical issues have led them to keep their main residence in the States.

Their favorite things about St. Croix are the beautiful blue water, which they had sweeping views of from Villa Madeleine, and the restaurants. Two of their recent favorites are Duggan’s Reef and The Buccaneer.

We asked Vinnie and Anita if they’d be willing to share any details about their experience working with Team Fedeles and they said:
