south florida: Tips For Sellers In A Buyers Market
- 04/17/07 02:09 PM
So how long have you had your home on the market? This is a common topic of conversation lately in Ft Lauderdale. Many people have had their homes on the market for months without an offer. In years past all a Realtor had to do was put a home on the MLS (multiple listing service) within hours the homeowner would be presented with multiple offers. The Fort Lauderdale market has changed, almost over night we went from a sellers market to a buyers market. This happens when the local inventory of homes becomes greater than the demand for those homes. While … (0 comments)
south florida: Photography Tip’s and Tricks
- 04/14/07 02:44 PM
Good Pictures are priceless when it comes to the marketing of a listing. You don't have to spend much time on Realtor.com to realize there's a bunch of bad photographers out there and most Realtors don't value what good photography can do for their image and sales. Tip 1Wait for a good day, blue skies sell houses. I've seen million dollar houses photographed in the rain. Tip 2Take your front shot with the sun to your back, your skies will be bluer and your image will look much crisper. Front shots should not have cars parked in the driveway and the … (43 comments)

south florida: Another Reason To Love South Florida
- 04/12/07 02:24 AM
Just North of Trump Hollywood on the left hand side of Ocean Drive is another reason to love South Florida, Giorgio's Bakery & Market. Giorgio's was the first restaurant I ate at after moving to Aventura from New York five years ago. Since then I must have eaten there a hundred times. I have a lot of great memories there, good friends and good times. Giorgio's has a great Greek bistro atmosphere and it overlooks the Intra-Coastal waterway. On any given day you can sit, eat and watch million dollar boats float by, the whole atmosphere is very inspiring. It's a great … (2 comments)
south florida: Trump Does Florida "again"
- 04/11/07 02:33 AM
Yesterday after leaving the office at Keyes Ft Lauderdale I decided to go take a sneak peak at Donald Trump and Jorge Perez, of the Related Groups, latest joint venture, Trump Hollywood. I was not disappointed. Trump Hollywood will be a magnificent glass and concrete tower coming out of white sand to stand 40 stories over looking the Atlantic Ocean. Glass and concrete does little to make me think of home but some how these moguls have pulled it of, standing in the show room I could easily picture myself living there. The plans scream luxury and yet conveys excellence and elegance. … (3 comments)
