Home owners don't realize how much harder a vacant home is to sell. In today's market, you have to win the beauty contest. Vacant houses simply underperform staged homes and the increased sales price provides an excellent return on what staging costs. Choosing to stage your home should be an easy decision in today's market. Take a look at its top five reasons why selling a vacant house is often a mistake in today's market:   1. People don't simply buy houses; they buy the next chapter of their lives. This is an emotional experience and emotion influences what people buy and how much they will pay. Vacant houses are devoid of life, and the chance to make an emotional connection is lost.   2. Vacancy distracts buyers from looking at the house itself. They wonder: "Is this a divorce?  Why ...

Movies in the Park in downtown St Petersburg are the fare for May. As part of the St Petersburg Parks 100th anniversary celebration there will be a free movie every Thursday evening in North Straub Park, along Beach Drive NE just north of the Museum of Fine Arts. Live Florida folk music will start at 7 pm and the movies will start at dark. You can bring a blanket or you can rent a chair for $5. You can bring your own picnic or you can buy food there in the park or you can get a Meal To Go from any of the surrounding restaurants. What a great place to enjoy a movie - look out over the yacht basin and Tampa Bay, see the lights of the downtown luxury condos as they come on, and hopefully enjoy a balmy breeze. North Straub Park is right across from our ALVA International, Inc. real estate o...

Stop&Shop Market has the best Cuban sandwiches in downtown St Petersburg. It's at the edge of downtown, at the corner of Fifth Avenue N and 1st St N (432 1st St North) and is very unpretentious. Yet - people line up for their hot pressed Cubans - I like mine "Original", thanks. They make lots of other sandwiches to order, so if you're going in to pick it up at lunchtime, you should call ahead (727) 822-0276. Then take it back to your office, your condo, your hotel, or even better - take it to one of the parks and enjoy the Florida weather and lifestyle. There are no tables inside or outside Stop&Shop Market so it's Take Out only. Downtown St Petersburg has lots of waterfront parks, so enjoy your lunch, peoplewatch and boatwatch, maybe get a walk in for a little exercise, and enjoy your ...

An Eleazer book signing in downtown St Petersburg Florida is scheduled for Saturday, May 1st, from 10 a.m. til 1 p.m. at The Simms Team real estate office, ALVA International, Inc. in downtown St Pete at 238 Beach Drive NE, St Petersburg, just across from the Museum of Fine Arts. Bill Eleazer is a St Pete resident and was a professor at Stetson Law School for many years. His legal acumen as well as his Georgia upbringing are evident in this crime thriller, Savannah Law. Enjoy the legal strategy when a law student is pitted against a notorious national criminal attorney; watch the foibles at a dysfunctional faculty meeting; feel the warmth of the local Cheers bar. Eleazer builds plot suspense, inside and outside the courtroom, as well as memorable characters and has us hoping that this w...

Kahwa Coffee in downtown St Petersburg Florida continues to be a favorite neighborhood place - so popular, in fact, that they've opened a second place 7 blocks away, also in downtown St Pete. Just recently Kahwa Espresso Bar at 475 2nd Street North in downtown St Pete celebrated their second anniversary - and to thank their customers, gave away coffees for the whole day: coffees, lattes, espressos, etc. I was there that morning, sitting at the counter, and enjoyed watching the reactions of the surprised customers. I splurged with a croissant that morning, wanting to give them some revenue. Thank you, Kahwa! Mornings bring a mix of people having coffee there - business meetings, arts discussions, people on their way to work, people there to read the newspaper or check their email on the ...

Yes, Chihuly is coming to downtown St Petersburg and the opening of the Chihuly Exhibit at 400 Beach Drive is scheduled for the Fourth of July. The Chihuly Gallery will be at the corner of Beach Drive and 4th Avenue North, taking the vacant corner space as well as the space previously occupied by Davis Anthony Home & Garden, which has moved to another location in the same building, just around the corner on 4th Avenue N. The Chihuly exhibit at the Museum of Fine Arts, also on Beach Drive in downtown St Petersburg, a few years ago had crowds lined up along the waterfront park, waiting to get in. They passed along umbrellas to keep the sun off. Downtown St Petersburg and Beach Drive in particular are becoming the Place To Be.  The "art district" which overlooks Tampa Bay will be anchored ...

Last night I attended the Grand Opening of the Cassis Brasserie restaurant in downtown St Petersburg - it was certainly worth waiting for. Two rows of tables line the sidewalk under green umbrellas, overlooking the marina, the park and the bay. Inside it inviting seating for 150 people. The decor is certainly reminiscent of the Paris brasseries we enjoyed so much. Flowing champagne was enhanced by a touch of cassis, and waiters carrying enticing amuse bouche circled through the crowd all evening. My favorite was the scallops, that just melted in my mouth, followed by the tuna tartare and the steak tartate. I also enjoyed the lamb chops, the shrimp cocktail, and so much more. Dinner this week is by reservation only, and lunch starts next week. Judging by the comments of the guests last n...

Will Power won the 2010 St Petersburg Grand Prix yesterday, showing lots of will power. This Australian driver for the Penske Team recovered from a broken back to win the first two Indy Races this year, the first in Brazil and the second here in downtown St Petersburg Florida. He had the fastest qualifying times, started in pole position, and won by nearly a second. The St Petersburg Grand Prix brings spring excitement to downtown St Pete - roads and a runway are turned into tracks for this race, streets lined with concrete barriers, tires and high chain link fence. You either love it or hate it! This year the Grand Prix in St Pete had some completed races on Sunday, but torrential rain and lighning as well as up to 6" of standing water on some parts of the road caused a postponement of...
