Cornerstone Market: St. Augustine
St. Augustine isn’t simply a market we serve. It’s home.
Kurt Bogart was raised in St. Augustine and has lived throughout the area, from St. Augustine South to the St. Johns River and Matanzas Inlet. Today, Kurt and his family live in Palencia. Together, Kurt & Gavin Bogart help buyers and sellers navigate St. Augustine, St. Johns County and communities throughout Northeast Florida.
Before entering real estate, Kurt served 25 years in the United States Navy. That experience shaped the way Kurt & Gavin approach real estate today: prepare thoroughly, communicate clearly, pay attention to the details and take responsibility for the outcome.
Proven Real Estate Experience in St. Augustine
Real estate marketing is easy to create. Results are harder to produce.
According to RealTrends Verified’s 2026 rankings, based on 2025 production, Kurt completed 92 transaction sides representing $34.11 million in sales volume. RealTrends ranked him #1 in St. Augustine by transaction sides and #2 by sales volume.
The Kurt & Gavin Bogart Zillow team profile reports more than 620 completed sales, 228 sales during the previous 12 months and more than 200 client reviews with a 5.0-star rating.
That experience matters because every transaction teaches something. Inspections, appraisals, surveys, insurance challenges, financing issues, negotiations, title problems and closings all create knowledge that can be used to better protect the next client.
There Is No Single St. Augustine Real Estate Market
A home in Palencia should not be evaluated the same way as a home near St. Augustine Beach.
World Golf Village is different from Anastasia Island. Vilano Beach is different from St. Augustine South. A property near Matanzas Inlet may involve considerations that rarely come up with newer construction in 32092 or 32095.
Even within individual communities, values can change based on the section, lot, builder, school zone, HOA or CDD fees, age, upgrades and location.
That is where local knowledge becomes valuable.
Kurt & Gavin work throughout St. Augustine, St. Johns, Ponte Vedra and surrounding Northeast Florida communities, representing clients purchasing and selling primary residences, new construction, investment property, condos, waterfront homes, coastal property and luxury real estate.
Coastal Real Estate Requires More Due Diligence
Living near the water is one of the biggest attractions of Northeast Florida, but coastal property comes with additional considerations.
Flood zones, prior storm impacts, elevation, insurance costs and availability, drainage, construction type, property history and proximity to the ocean or Intracoastal can materially affect both the cost and risk of ownership.
Kurt has spent much of his life around St. Augustine’s waterways and coastal communities.
When Kurt & Gavin represent a buyer, the job is not simply to unlock a door and point out the kitchen. It is to help the buyer understand what questions need to be answered before purchasing the property.
Military Relocation to St. Augustine
Military relocation is personal to the Bogart family.
After serving 25 years in the Navy, Kurt understands PCS moves, compressed timelines and the challenges of making major housing decisions from hundreds or even thousands of miles away.
Kurt & Gavin work with active-duty military members, veterans and relocating families throughout Northeast Florida, including clients stationed at NAS Jacksonville, Naval Station Mayport and other military installations in the region.
When you are purchasing remotely, your Realtor becomes your eyes and ears on the ground. That responsibility should be taken seriously.
Buying a Home in St. Augustine
One of the easiest mistakes to make is assuming that two St. Augustine homes with similar square footage should have similar values.
They may not.
Neighborhood, lot location, school zone, construction age, builder, HOA and CDD fees, flood exposure, insurance, proximity to the beach and even the specific section within a community can substantially affect value.
Kurt & Gavin help buyers understand those differences before deciding what a property is worth and whether it makes sense for their goals.
The objective is not to sell someone a house.
The objective is to help them make a good real estate decision.
Selling a Home in St. Augustine
Pricing correctly has become increasingly important for St. Augustine sellers.
Comparable sales are only the starting point.
Kurt & Gavin analyze active competition, pending sales, recent closings, price reductions, days on market, neighborhood trends, property condition, upgrades and the characteristics that separate one home from another.
Presentation matters as well.
Professional photography, accurate property information, strong digital marketing, proper positioning and responsive follow-up can all influence how buyers perceive a property.
A successful listing strategy should answer one question clearly:
Why should a buyer choose this home over the other options available today?
Why Work With Kurt & Gavin Bogart?
Kurt & Gavin Bogart combine deep St. Augustine roots, measurable production, experienced support and straightforward advice.
Kurt’s production has been independently verified by RealTrends, while the team’s Zillow profile reflects hundreds of completed transactions and more than 200 five-star client reviews.
But production numbers alone do not make someone the right Realtor.
Your agent should understand your objectives, understand the property, know the local market, communicate consistently and be willing to tell you when something simply does not make sense.
That is the standard Kurt & Gavin bring to every transaction.
