Real Estate Update From Zilbert Realty Group

Managing Real Estate Broker with Zilbert International Realty

As you relax with your Sunday brunch, here's a quick note to bring you up-to-date on what's been going on with the Miami real estate market and our company so far this year.

BIG REAL ESTATE TRENDS FOR 2012 - I have just returned from a week at the Inman News Real Estate conference in New York City, where real estate and technology titans were able to present many of the real estate trends that we can expect to see this year. Interestingly enough, the biggest point of discussion was about HOW buyers and sellers will interact with real estate people and between eachother. Here is what we learned:

  • The use of mobile tools, by buyers and sellers, will explode this year. It seems, also, that the trend is for software developers to be targeting more tools for iOS products, namely the iPhone and iPad. Expect your Apple devices to get some brilliant new tools this year.
  • Let's get social! I have been one of those people who have never really put much time into using Social Media (i.e. Facebook, Twitter, etc). Well that's about to change, and for me, at least, it changed this past week. Tools like Twitter and Google+ will be the leaders in 2012 for people just like you, and I highly suggest that you take some time, get set up, and learn how to fit social media into your everyday life. It may be a little awkward for some at first, but it very quickly makes its way into your daily routine.
  • Follow me on Twitter at @Zilbert, and add me to your circles on Google+ at http://gplus.to/Markzilbert or +Zilbert. You willl start to see news and other items appear in real-time, and you will have the chance to comment and otherwise interact with me and hundreds of other people just like you.
  • Next month I will be hosting an online seminar to introduce our clients to Social Media tools, and how they can be used in your community and/or areas of interest. I will send you an e-mail invitation, and you are welcomed to attend. There will be no fee.
  • Keep and eye on Zilbert.com, and within the next few weeks your iPad will come alive at Zilbert.com like never before. The trend with iPads is to move away from Apps and explore the web with iPad's touch-and-swipe features. This makes content like Zilbert.com available to anyone, anywhere, anytime without having to visit the App Store.
  • Soon, when you drive through Miami with Zilbert.com on your iPhone, you will be able to point your iPhone at a condo building, and you will see what's for sale. The same will be true with many neighborhoods around Miami and Miami Beach. Point your iPhone or iPad at a house, and learn all about it.

HAVE A QUICK SNEAK PEEK AT OUR NEW IL VILLAGGIO PROPERTY - Now that the winter season is well under way (and having spent a chilly week in NYC last week), I am pleased to let you know of an amazing condo for sale at Il Villaggio. It doesn't get better than living right on the ocean, right on Ocean Drive, in a private, gated, five-star community. Priced at just under $2.5M, this condo is ready for immediate use. So, enjoy Miami Beach now at Il Villaggio Unit 1107, the best in Miami Beach real estate. You can also find the site listed at www.Zilbert.com, so drop by soon.

BIG, BIG PRESS RELEASE COMING OUT TUESDAY - This Tuesday, Zilbert Realty Group will be announcing some big, big news. Keep your ears open, and look for my press release, which I will send to you via E-mail.
