boca raton: Florida Mortgage & Real Estate | Opportunity Costs in a Bad Market - Why to buy now
- 11/20/07 04:31 AM
This post was born from an old comment... in February, right when I started here on ActiveRain... it was on one of Caleb Mardini's posts. Shortly afterwards, Colleen Kulikowski wrote a post that quoted my comment. Yesterday, a freelance writer asked to use the same quote in a marketing piece she is writing for a Master Planned Community in Lakeland Florida - Oakbridge. So I guess that despite the changes in the market in the past 10-11 months, the same adage rings true! Read this post on my main site as well: Florida Mortgage & Real Estate | Opportunity Costs 101 … (1 comments)
boca raton: Boynton Beach Florida | Pollo Campero ~ New Restaurant Opening Soon!
- 11/14/07 07:42 AM
Boynton Beach Florida is about to get a highly anticipated new restaurant chain - Pollo Campero. Located in the Boynton Town Center, with direct road frontage on Congress Road north of Boynton Beach Boulevard. Pollo Campero - translated from Spanish - means "County Chicken"... this restaurant is the Latin American version of Kentucky Fried Chicken. The menu varies from KFC in that they offer plantains (patacones), rice and beans (arroz con frijoles), flan and other traditional Latin American dishes.

boca raton: Boca Raton Florida | Pregnancy Tips from a Dad who has been there
- 10/19/07 11:04 AM
When my wife first got pregnant in April 2005, we endured a long and complicated journey that most first time parents will surely understand... running all around Boca Raton Florida and even Coral Springs, Boynton Beach and other cities in South Florida to get this or that test run. One of the scarier tests we had to think about was called the Ashkenazi Panel. It is a test for Jewish people of Ashkenazi descent - generically those that come from the Eastern part of Europe. The other tough part of this test is that it was one of the more expensive … (5 comments)

boca raton: Florida Mortgage | Fixed Rate Loans with Interest Only Option
- 09/04/07 02:43 AM
Adjustable Rate Mortgages (ARM) are not very unpopular right now thanks to the media bashing them. To make things worse, they currently (August 31, 2007) have higher rates than Fixed Rate Mortgages. This poses a problem for people that want a lower payment but now are demanding the secure rate of a Fixed Rate Mortgage. The answer to this problem is found in Hyrbid Mortgages. These loans combine the security of a long-term rate with a lower payment in the early stages of the loan. My favorite Hybrid Mortgage program is a 30 year Fixed Rate with 10 years or 15 years of Interest Only.... hence the Hybrid moniker. The Features of the 30 year … (11 comments)

Hurricane Season is upon us once again in South Florida.

This past Sunday, I ventured out of the house earlier than my 17 month old son usually allows. I headed down to Miami's South Beach to meet the guys from Sellsius Real Estate that were in town on their Blog Bus Tour. Being that living and working in Palm Beach County, Florida keeps me about 50-60 miles North of South Beach, I figured I would make a stop in "my" cuban cafe just off South Beach Florida's famous Lincoln Road Pedestrian Mall. I walked from Alton Road down Lincoln Rd and hung a left on Meridian. Half a block down is where you will … (10 comments)
