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 […]

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 […]

What to do, What to do… Election Day is Around the Corner in South Miami!

Tomorrow is election day in South Miami.  I am still not 100% sure who I will be voting for – every time I get a candidate’s “hate card” I vow not to vote for them, but now they are all generating “hate cards”,  so I’m conflicted.  The winners in this […]

Oh Dear, It’s Election Time in South Miami Again!

Our ever-colorful, passionate, and ‘fit’ Commissioner Bob Welsh (aka Bicycle Bob) was peddling around my South Miami neighborhood (behind Dante Fascell Park) on Saturday delivering  a plug for re-election of Commissioner Walter Harris, an unofficial dog park survey, and more  minutia about ex-Police Chief Orlando Martinez (ousted in August, 2013).
