Too Tired to Walk On Halloween?

I’ve had a couple of clients who recently moved to Miami ask me where they can relax and enjoy a Halloween Party with their kids. If you live in Coral Gables, Coconut Grove, South Miami, Pinecrest, or Palmetto Bay you are in SO much luck! These communities are so exceptional, […]

Miami Home Prices Up 10.5% in August!

That was tucked away on page 3 of the Business Section in the Miami Herald today (had it been bad news it would have been plastered across the front page!). That 10.5% increase is reflective of the Miami real estate market since August 2013. I have been selling residential real […]

Trick or Treat on “Happy Street”!

I put my Halloween wares out last night. Actually, we carved a pumpkin about 10 days ago but with all the rain and heat it didn’t fare so well – it had a melt-down so to speak. Our house on “Happy Street” is ready for the Halloween Parade, which is […]

It’s Throwback Thursday!

In 1997 I sold this home in South Miami to very good friends (seems like a lifetime ago). It wasn’t the ‘dream house’ we had been looking for but it had all the makings for it: a beautiful half-acre on a quiet winding street, good floor plan, a giant detached […]

Citizens is Giving Citizens a Break!!!

I read last week in the Miami Herald that Citizens Property Insurance Corporation is ending the 1% surcharge they imposed on most homeowner’s policies in 2007 because of the damage from the last of the hurricanes we had in 2005 (Dennis, Rita, & God-awful Katrina and Wilma). That “storm […]

It’s Throwback Thursday!

Well this was a dramatic change, especially in South Miami! The original house was built in 1961 and occupied by the most wonderful family for over 50 years. Bettie and Frank may have been my very favorite neighbors, and when we sold this sweet house on the Snapper Creek Canal […]

It’s Throwback Thursday!

This house in South Miami has had nine lives and lots of kids since I first sold it back in January, 2004. Originally built in 1952 with a ‘hacienda’ flair, it had been partially updated when I listed it in 2004 and then again when I sold it in 2010. The current […]

It’s Throwback Thursday!

This one definitely got better with age. I sold this home just behind Dante Fascell Park near Epiphany School the first time in 1994 and then sold it again in 2011. The current owners have excellent taste; the interior is as beautiful as the exterior, and the landscaping is simply […]

It’s Throwback Thursday!

This is probably my favorite throwback in South Miami because it goes ALL the way back! Every time I drive or walk by this home I think, “You’re not getting older, you’re getting better”! I love this place (and its owner) and the gorgeous 15,000sf corner lot it sits on. Had […]
