80 Dodge-Beverly Hills Plaza Construction Begins

Roy Kotz (NPDodge) — Mon, 28 Jul 2008 12:30:24 -0500

We are excited to announce that the construction of the new facade of the Beverly Hills Plaza has begun. Darland Construction has begun tearing done the shake shingled roofs and pouring new concrete sidewalks. They will work from the Jerry Ryan store at the East end down to the Play it Again store on the West end. Once they reach the West end, the bay that is currently Play it Again Sports will be tore down. This is where the new 80 Dodge building will soon emerge as the west end cap of the plaza. The construction of this new facade is expected to be complete by November.

Once the Beverly Hills Plaza has received it's face lift we will begin the demolition of the old Vatterott College building at 80th and Dodge. The new 80 Dodge building will have a foot print that will follow the contour of Dodge Street on the South and cover the area that is currently occupied by the old collage building.

On Thursday, July 24th, Steve Jensen, the Omaha city Planning Director, spoke to several potential residents about the vision and overall plans for the 72nd to 90th Street corridor. Click the link below to read a little about what he had to say.

80 Dodge Update

Roy Kotz (NPDodge) — Sat, 03 May 2008 09:58:57 -0500

The 80 Dodge Condo project has been an exciting project to be a part of, and now things are really starting to get moving.

Part of the overall project is the reconstruction of he facade of the Beverly Hills Plaza. The owners of this retail space have accepted bids on the construction and are expected to begin the transformation in early June. The contractor that is choosen will be staging their equipment in the parking lot adjecent to the old Vatterott College building which must come down to begin construction on the first 80 Dodge tower. As the renovation of the Beverly Hills Plaza is completed, the developers of 80 Dodge will begin preparing for the demolition of the Vatterott building. I expect this to begin as space in the staging area allows. Bellow are a few new renderings of the project. Including the 4th floor indoor pool, 4th floor terrace, and an updated view of the 80 Dodge tower from the 80th street and Dodge corner.

Our model is open 7 days a week from 11-6 and is located on the Third Floor of the Access Bank building at the corner of 78th Street and davenport. For more information or a private showing please call Roy Kotz at 402-639-2059 or e-mail your questions to Roy@RoyKotzRealtor..com

Nebraska Beats the National Average

Roy Kotz (NPDodge) — Fri, 15 Feb 2008 15:25:51 -0600

A report on KPTM.com and statistics from the National Association of Realtors show what many of us around the metro area have been saying since the market started it's correction. You can not base local real estate sales on national news. Real estate markets conditions are localized.

The doom and gloom that has been reported in the East and West has created concern and I feel in many cases confussion among buyers and sellers in our local markets. Who should you believe, the national news reports, they have to tell the truth, right, or your local REALTOR, they are just in it for themselves, right?

No, Nebraska did not have an increase in 2007 over 2006. However, the numbers are encouraging when compared to national figures.

Nebraska showed a decrease in # of existing sales of 4.9%, National sales dropped 12.8%. I think we did pretty well. And, the clouds are clearing.

Smoke Free Nebraka

Roy Kotz (NPDodge) — Sat, 09 Feb 2008 21:17:43 -0600

OK, it's not that I have anything against smokers, I don't. Many of my family members smoke, and I just lost my uncle to lung cancer which was undoubtedly caused by his addiction to cigarettes. He was a great man and the fact that he smoked was, I am sure, largely due to the fact that it is so hard to quit. However, I would rather not breathe the smoke when I go out. So, I have attached the text from an e-mail I received from GASP (Group to Alleviate Smoking Pollution). For those residence of Nebraska who would like to support smoke free businesses, you can follow the instructions and send a letter to your senator, and ask him /her to support (LB395) to end smoking in businesses.

To make this very easy for you, a sample letter that you may cut-and-paste is below, how to learn the name of your Senator and your Senator's email address. To multiply our Grassroots Power, please forward this to your friends and family throughout Nebraska. To be effective, this message needs to reach many people in every city in Nebraska very soon! If you want smoke-free restaurants and bars, please take just five minutes right now to make it happen. It is up to YOU! This is it, now's the time, the political "window of opportunity" is wide open and we are closer than ever to having a smoke-free state! Seventeen other states have already done this! The bill (LB395) to end smoking in these businesses is about to be debated by Nebraska's Senators. All it will take to tip the scale in our favor, and pass this bill into law, is for each Senator to get many letters from people in their district urging them to support clean indoor air for all workers. Will your letter be one of those or will you kick yourself later for not sending your letter after you read that your Senator voted NO? Please help and cause letters and phone calls to pour into the state Senators until you have heard the Governor has signed the smoke-free bill into law. Please encourage your friends, family, neighbors, and co-workers to do so, as well. Cut, paste, modify and send by email the following letter to your senator with a copy to the governor and GASP. (Please add your own comments at the top of this letter, telling your Senator where and/or how smoke bothers you and your family, so they don't all look the same.)

Dear Senator,

I do not like breathing other people's tobacco smoke. I know doing so harms my health. Employees who work in smoky businesses should be guaranteed a smoke-free workplace at all times because working in a smoky environment could kill them. Too many nonsmokers in Nebraska get sick and some die every year because they breathe other people's tobacco smoke. Passing a simple, strong and fair smoke-free law could easily reduce these illnesses and death toll.

Would you please work to modify the smoke-free bill, Legislative Bill 395 (LB395) so it will not exclude any businesses such as tobacco stores, bars, keno locations or any other business? Smoking should not be allowed in any business, like a tobacco store, because:
1) all employees deserve smoke-free air at work, and
2) if it is allowed, many businesses will suddenly claim to be tobacco stores so they can allow smoking. This could lead to many needless court cases.

LB395 also needs to be modified so no city or county may have a weaker ordinance than the state law. However, the rights of the cities and people must be preserved if they want to be more protective of their citizens' health by passing a stronger ordinance.

Respectfully,
Your name
Your address
Your City/State/Zip Code
Your Phone number
Your Email address

Cc: Gov.Heineman@gov.ne.gov        Info@SmokeFreeNebraska.org

WHAT IF I AM UNSURE OF WHO MY SENATOR IS?

If you don't know your senator's name, go to http://www.votesmart.org and enter your 9 digit zip code on the left side of the page, under "Find Your Representative:", hit Enter and scroll down until you see "State Legislative" - your senator's name will be right below it.

New Manager in Plattsmouth

Roy Kotz (NPDodge) — Fri, 25 Jan 2008 11:15:15 -0600

I would like to introduce myself. (I know many of you on activerain are already familiar with who I am, however the residence of Cass County am be wondering).

My name is Roy Kotz, and I am the new manager of the NPDodge Plattsmouth Office. Although Mary Jane will still be assisting many of you with your real estate buying and selling needs, she has chose to retire from management and I will attempt to fill her shoes.

I am originally from a small town in South Dakota, Presho. After receiving an education in Civil Engineering and Business Management I became a manager of a retail store that took me from Rapid City SD to Willmar MN then to Bismarck ND and finally to Council Bluffs IA. Upon accepting the Council Bluffs store my wife, Christina, and I moved to Bellevue and we bought our first home. This home buying experience peaked my interest in real estate and after six years in management I chose to leave my retail position, obtain my real estate sales person's license and work with the a company with deep roots in Eastern Nebraska/Western IA, NPDodge Real Estate.

My decision to join the NPDodge team was not difficult. I knew going in that I wanted to work with a company that was well known, established, and that not only truly cared about the success of their agents but also empowered them to make decisions that would most benefit their clients. You see, I learned in retail that customer service and customer care are the two most important things in a relationship building business, and when I interviewed with NPDodge it was obvious that they recognized this.

After 4 years in real estate I started to get the itch to manage again. Since I had started I had always been more than willing to help other agents with marketing and tech questions, and soon agents were coming to me for my opinion on questions they had with contracts, questions on negotiations, and other real estate specific problems. I found that I had never really lost my desire to teach and help others, so in 2007 I began taking pre-licensing courses and tested for my broker's license. In November I passed the exam and in January was asked to manage the Plattsmouth office.

So, next time you are by the NPDodge office, located just west of the Cass County Bank, please stop in and say hi. I would love to meet you.
