This is downtown Vegas at night during one of their shows.  What makes this so special is that when the strip went up it probably hurt downtown's business, but instead of standing by and watching its own demise the powers that be came up with this brilliant idea to bring people back downtown and keep them there.  By enclosing the entire downtown area with a roof that sports video and music shows periodically the roof lends itself to not only an entertainment venue, but also protects from the elements.  This keeps customers there and coming back.  I know it worked for me.   Now, how to incorporate this same idea into the Sawgrass Mills Oasis section of the mall in Sunrise, Florida?  This section of the mall is technically dead with the exception of the Cheesecake Factory and Ron Jon.  St... 06/24/2011

If this isn't a remarkable view and condo I don't know what is.  For years condo conversions were all the rage in South Florida and literally sold out within days for truly ridiculous prices.  Now, those same condos are mostly in default.  Ahhh, but not this one.  Tao condos of Sawgrass in Sunrise, Florida is the first I have seen at least, that is going from new construction sales back to rentals only.    This happened because buyers simply were not snapping them up and the builder's timing couldn't be any worse to sell new condos.  But it's okay because eventually these will come back with a force worth reckoning with partly because of the location and partly because of it's beauty.  Usually, these types of buildings are found on the coast or South Beach, but this is different.  It's ... 06/16/2011

  Wannado City® at Sawgrass Mill in Sunrise Florida- A Kid's Place You Will Not Want To Miss Out On!    Our homeschool support group planned a group field trip for the kids to Wannado City® last week. It worked out great for us because we hired a new buyers' agent who works in Weston Florida and that is right close to Sawgrass Mill in Sunrise. Sawgrass is absolutely my favorite shopping mall in the world besides all the shops at Disneyworld. ( we are Disney Fans), but more about shopping at Sawgrass in another post. I am not a big shopper. I like to buy online and I don't buy anything I don't really need or that does not serve a purpose, and absolutely no dust collectors.  So our plan was to spend a day with Julie Locke our new buyers agent in Weston. We asked her to take us on a tour s... 11/14/2009

Blogging in my opinion is definitely a fun and effective way of marketing on the internet. I am usually excited when an ideal topic of interest pops into my head during my day. That ideal is usually very specific in nature, something that I can really focus in on and create great content with. However, sometimes you may have your entire blogging game plan mapped out and still not have the ability to produce a single sentence to your satisfaction. Sometimes I sit at my screen with my notepad and I sit and stare for about an hour before I begin writing anything at all. It happens to us all. I think the key to being able to produce content is to just relax! Do not make blogging a chore. Even if you have an extremely busy schedule, at the end of the day when you check your email like most p... 10/26/2009

This weekend the South Florida Sun Sentinel featured a story about Howard Mallinger and his wife Sheryl. Howard never imagined that his retirement years would end up like this.  His wife was diagnosed with Stage IV brain cancer and the medical expenses are crippling his life. His home is in pre foreclosure, his electricity has been shut off, his social security income doesn't cover his expenses and he has to go to local food banks for food for him and his two mentally challenged sons. I've inserted more details of his heart wrenching struggles which you can read and listen to by clicking on the link below:  Sun Sentinel story on the Mallingers I met Mr. Mallinger yesterday with my family and he's a man that still has great faith and hope even after all that he has been through.

It seems there are plenty of people who have been cheating the systems. (What's new?) It looks like people who have moved away and have been renting out there homes. It makes sense with the inventory still so high to at least cover the cost of the mortgage. Here is the problem. Since they moved away its no longer consider a Primary Residence. So you are to report when you move away and you will be taxed differently. This money is used as our school money and for fire and police for starters. So here we are losing money because they haven't updated there records. So the property appraisers office is going through all the records and heading out to the homes and looking to see if people are still in there homes or if someone else is there. The City of Sunrise was able to recover $181,000.... 03/10/2009

The other day I meet with some buyers. We set up to meet in Sunrise to view some HUD homes they were interested in. I made my showings calls and all was set. We were viewing all the properties I had layed out for them. Things were going well. Once we were done with the list I had the husband asked if he coud drive me by a property they noticed the other day that was not on my list. My reply, But of course! So we headed out to take a look and it was vacant. Perfect, and I noticed it was on Supra, Even better! Well I open my glovebox in my truck and pull out my Activekey and to my surprise DEAD. Dead as a door nail. I looked for my car charger that is usually in the glovebos as well and of course its not there. Great now what do I do? I explained that my key is dead and my charger is not ... 03/05/2009

I guess it had to come to this! Realtors who are involved with Short Sales,Foreclosures and REO`s are convinced they should be able to render legal opinion quoting make believe law. Recently, I`ve seen Realtors place insane prices on homes justifying what they`re doing by saying they can convince the lenders to agree to a sales price, assist in negotiating the sale,and advise their clients to offer commissions that the lenders would never agree to! When offers are sent to some Realtors they seem to decide for themselves which offer is worthy for the seller, not quite understanding "Present all offers".. We sent in a cash offer on a condo located in Sunrise,Florida the other day. The offer was $10K below the asking price. The agent called us telling us the offer won`t fly for the lender,... 02/11/2009

So Quaterdeck will be serving free wine on Saturday Valentine's Day. How great is that! When you purchase an dinner entree they will serve you free wine. You will be limited to 3 glasses a person. I don't know about you, but 1 glass usually gets me dizzy. I don't know if I could handle 3, but its good to know I can be served 3. I think its great they are doing this. Quarterdeck is one of my favorite places to eat at. I may stop by on Saturday.
