Most agents drive to Palatka for a closing. I work here — iHeart Realty is headquartered at 423 St Johns Ave in the middle of downtown — a few blocks from the riverfront, the murals, and the barbershop conversations where half this town’s real estate news travels first. If you’re buying or selling in Palatka or anywhere in Putnam County, you want someone who knows which streets flood, which blocks are turning over, and what a fair price looks like here — not what a Jacksonville algorithm guesses.

Small town. Big river. Real value.
The St. Johns River
Riverfront and river-access living that would cost multiples of the price closer to the coast. Boating, bass fishing, and sunsets over the water are everyday life here.
Historic downtown
St Johns Avenue’s storefronts, the downtown murals, and community events like Boo on the Avenue give Palatka a character newer suburbs can’t copy.
Ravine Gardens
A state park with dramatic ravines and azalea-covered trails, right inside the city. Not many towns this size have anything like it.
Room to grow
Putnam County recently approved a $200M motorsports complex — a signal of the jobs and attention headed this way.
My office is on St Johns Ave.
Working out of our downtown Palatka office, I’ve helped families buy and sell across Palatka, East Palatka, San Mateo, Interlachen, Crescent City, and the rest of Putnam County — and I invest in this market myself. When I price a home here, it’s from closings I’ve stood at, not a spreadsheet.
Whether you’re selling a riverfront home or buying your first place with down payment assistance, you’ll get straight answers and a plan.

Budgets stretch further here than almost anywhere else in Northeast Florida. First-time buyers: Florida’s assistance programs can help with your down payment, and veterans may qualify for $0-down VA loans. Run your numbers with my free affordability calculator.
Selling in Palatka
Pricing a Palatka home takes local judgment — river access, lot, and block matter more than online estimates understand. I’ll build you a real market analysis from actual Putnam County comps, free and no obligation.
Let’s talk Palatka.
Buying, selling, or just wondering what your place is worth — I reply personally, usually the same day.
