Pet-Friendly Homes in Boca Raton, FL  ARE YOU LOOKING FOR PET FRIENDLY HOMES IN BOCA RATON FL? People searching for pet-friendly homes for sale in Boca Raton FL often run into problems.  I know; I get the calls.  Pet friendly can mean different things to many people. The condo you saw online may accept one cat but no dogs, or it may accept one dog with a maximum weight of 25 pounds or two dogs maximum 60 pounds. You need to know up front what you are dealing with. What are the pet regulations of the community you are looking at?  Do you know?  Don't take, Oh, it's fine as an answer.    Otherwise, you are wasting your time.  It happens all too often.  People fall in love with a house in a gated community that accepts one pet when they have three, or a condo that is pet friendly to cats, ...

Thank You Officer Patterson and the Boca Raton Police What started out as a visit to the dentist today ended up with my phone being stolen.  Hard to believe but true.  After making a followup appointment and entering it on my calendar, Maggie reminded me to take my phone, which was on the counter. I took the phone and made a stop in the ladies room downstairs.  On my way out, I noticed two women in scrubs had come into the bathroom.   When I got to my car, I realized I did not have my phone but I had my iPad.  Luckily, I had downloaded the app Find My Phone which showed my phone was still in the building.  I headed back to the ladies room.  The women and my phone were no where to be found.  There was a man working on his laptop in the lobby who gave me managment company's number.  No an...

Buying a house is a difficult process — there are large sums of money involved, the transaction costs and hassle of moving mean that you can’t just buy another house if you don’t like the one you end up with. The best you can do is to educate yourself in all aspects of the house hunt, keep a clear head, and buy a house that best fits your criteria. There are plenty of articles full of useful tips for first-time homebuyers. I am not going to repeat them. Instead, I will list the lessons I have learned over the past 30 years of working exclusively with buyers that are not often covered.   For full article visit:  http://www.optimaproperties.com/?p=3149

Testimonial - Woodbury in Boca Raton FL - Toledo Park                     Loved our home sale   Elyse was fantastic from start to finish.  She did a great job of putting together the MLS listing with effective photos, descriptions and positive features of the house and community.  Once listed, she conducted about 14 showings in a very short time, one of which resulted in an offer and eventual purchase.    Elyse's follow up throughout the process was fabulous, keeping everything on track and making sure that we did what we needed to do to move things along and meet our time frame for closing.  She understood the area and I believe presented us with good comparable sales that allowed us to price the property correctly.  I would highly recommend her as a Realtor.   Barry D Hahn
