When selling Boca Raton luxury homes properties or others, there is a strategy for negotiating the best purchase price.

All of these factors come into play when trying to set the right price and negotiate offers that will hold up and not fall through.

Smile for the day--Amazing Facts   If you yelled for 8 years, 7 months and 6 days you would have produced enough sound energy to heat one cup of coffee. (Hardly seems worth it.) If you farted consistently for 6 years and 9 months, enough gas is produced to create the energy of an atomic bomb. (Now that's more like it!)The human heart creates enough pressure when it pumps out to the body to squirt blood 30 feet. (O.M.G.!) A pig's orgasm lasts 30 minutes. (O.M.G.!!!) Is that why they are always squealing?A cockroach will live nine days without its head before it starves to death. (Creepy) (I'm still not over the pig.) Banging your head against a wall uses 150 calories an hour. (Don't try this at home;   maybe at work.) The male praying mantis cannot copulate while its head is attached to ...

If you’ve got new construction in your area, like the Boca Raton luxury homes market does, chances are you are receiving a number of bites from prospective home buyers. At least, you should be when looking at the latest report from the Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA).Tallies from the MBA Builder Application Survey show a significant boost in home buyers applying for mortgage applications this past February. The survey examined applications put in for new home purchases, which was up 24 percent from January 2016 and 12 percent from February 2015.

Every house should have at least one carbon monoxide detector. This is particularly important during the winter months when those living in Boca Raton luxury homes may choose to light a fire without realizing the home’s chimney and connector pipe may not be in working order. Even if lighting a fire outdoors, this can be a problem.With over 200 deaths attributed to the odorless, colorless gas (some estimates place it closer to 4,000), it is critically important that home owners be aware that the winter months are when many of these types of accidents occur. Attached garages also can be the source of this killer anytime during the year.Get tips on what to look for, what are the leading causes, and how to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning from happening in your home at the Berkshire Hathaw...

Saw this stove in a condo near the beach.  It piqued my interest because its electric, self-cleaning with an analog clock.  Tried to do some research but could not find anything.  Just curious, does anyone know anything as to its age?  1960s? 1970s?
