Growing up in Kentucky, we would often vacation here — and The Summit was one of the places we would stay. The building, and the east end of Panama City Beach in general, have always remained close to me. This is where I specialize my practice. I know this building from the ground up. What started as a destination quickly became part of my life and career, and I’m proud to now serve the very community that meant so much to me as a kid.
Whether this is your investment property, your retirement plan, or a family getaway, I understand how important choosing the right agent can be — and how much trust it takes to hand someone the keys to that process. What follows isn’t just a sales pitch — it’s a snapshot of real data, real results, and the real advantage of working with someone who understands this building and this market on a deeper level.
Proven Performance at The Summit
I’ve sold fifteen (15) units at The Summit over the past five years and know this building inside and out — from floorplans and stack positioning to seasonal buyer behavior and pricing dynamics.
So far in 2025, The Summit has seen nine closings, and I’ve personally represented three of them.
Of those three, two were also my listings — and both went under contract in under fifteen (15) days. These outcomes are the result of a focused strategy: targeted marketing, consistent professional communication, and honest, transparent guidance throughout the entire listing process.
Understanding Today’s Market
The Summit remains — and will continue to be — a staple of the Panama City Beach community. Its Gulf-front location, amenities, and rental appeal make it a consistent draw for both investors and vacationers.
But it’s a different time, and a different market to sell in. Buyers today are more value-conscious. Inventory is rising. Additionally, the properties that are not properly priced and positioned are simply sitting with no offers coming.
As of June 9th, 2025, there are 27 active listings at The Summit — and not a single unit is under contract. That’s a clear signal: strategy and specialization matter. The market exists, but something is lacking: the pricing, the communication to the prospective buyers or reaching the right buyers.
I am a condo professional more than anything else. Over my seven-year career, I’ve sold in 43 different condominium complexes across Panama City Beach — giving me unmatched insight into pricing trends, seasonal demand, HOA considerations, rental potential, buyer behavior… And what makes The Summit unique and desirable.
Condo sales require a different approach than single-family homes, and sellers at The Summit deserve representation that understands those differences down to the details.
When you work with me, you can expect honest guidance, open communication, and a tailored strategy that puts your goals first. I take pride in making the process clear, professional, and as stress-free as possible — and I welcome the opportunity to show you what that looks like firsthand.
Opportunities Still Exist
Yes, the current market feels slower — and to many, it looks like a downturn. But perception doesn’t always equal reality.
While pricing has corrected and buyer activity is more measured, opportunity hasn’t disappeared — it’s just shifted. Properties that are marketed strategically, priced appropriately, and guided by experience are still selling.
I’m not here to promise unrealistic outcomes. I’m here to help you navigate this market intelligently, transparently, and with a plan that works. If you’re ready to have that conversation, I’m here to help.
A note from Olivier Monod, CCIM – Broker and President of the Anchor Family of Companies Since 1990
Dale began his real estate career at Anchor on the eve of Hurricane Michael—literally on October 9th, 2018. As it turns out, it was a fitting omen. After many successful years selling Panama City Beach condominiums, Dale, like all condo owners, was hit hard in 2023 when the market stalled. Unlike many who stepped away, Dale stayed the course and remained loyal to his specialty as the “PCB Condo Pro.”
2024 was a tough year, but Dale still managed to close numerous sales. As his broker, I spoke with him more than once about possibly re-orienting his practice toward single-family homes. Each time, he politely declined, doubled down, and continued producing in a market where few others could.
Now, at the midpoint of 2025, Dale has proven both his talent and his perseverance. Give Dale a try—you’ll experience what true professionalism looks like.
