Our prices are very attractive.   It has been years since it has been so affordable to live here.  The Europeans always liked our warm, sunny climate and this week the British pound was worth $1.58 and the Euro was worth $1.45.  The economies domestically and abroad have improved,which has made the U.S. lenders offer mortgages to foreign nationals, again.  Bank of America is offering mortgages to foreign investors much more readily than a few months ago, although the documentation is more strict.

Another reason for more sales is the EB-5 Visa Program.  This visa was created by the Immigration Act of 1990 and it allows foreigners to obtain a green card by making a business investment in the United States.

This is a good time to put your home or condo on the market because there is a much greater chance of  selling now than it has been for the past two years.  This is really good news!  If you are thinking of selling, please call me for an in depth review of your property and advice on pricing.

Miami is a mix of neighborhoods and of prices.  Find a realtor willing to help you explore the possibilities.  There’s literally a neighborhood for everyone and anyone… a right fit.    Give up a little, to gain alot.  Miami is an easy place to live!

Some are disappointed at the price they had to sell their northern home and feel they should be able to make up for it, here by getting a great property for a low price.  Comparing values in other areas is almost impossible.

These retirees want waterfront, activities nearby, and room for visiting children and grandchildren. They don’t want a sleepy atmosphere.  Most importantly, they want value for their money and a townhouse that is ready to move in and doesn’t need lots of work which is seen as aggravation. I say, townhouse, because we have so few single family homes that a townhouse is closest to the type of real estate they are accustomed to .

If they want a condo, it has to be light, airy, great views and maintenance that isn’t back breaking.  Many would be buyers are discouraged by high maintenance.  In fact, one of the major objections to condo life, is the expensive maintenance fees.

Local people who have been renting for years are buying. A family that lived in a rented townhouse in the waterways for more than five years, recently bought a waterfront townhouse at Mystic Point.  It was a great buy at $400k.

This week, I have been reading about foreign investors coming back into the Florida market.  Foreign investors are now considering South Florida Real Estate a safe investment again and they will be a crucial player in helping the South Florida Real Estate Market recover.  Buyers from the UK are among those who are trickling back into the market, looking for distressed and foreclosed properties.

The falling dollar is also attractive and international investors want to take advantage of the exchange rate.

There are bargains galore!  Go to my property search and see all that is available…

What is it about South Florida?

It has it all. South Florida is a world within itself. Although South Florida may be apart of the USA, it’s perceved around the world like it’s own country. There are expats from all over that call South Florida  home. It has the pulse of high energy and style that is so unique it has earned  recognition around the world. Miami is so well known it’s referred to simply as Miami, not Miami, Florida; as if someone may not know where it was.

South Florida is  diverse in culture, old world and new,warm weather and water, the high life and the quite. There’s sports you can participate in, and sports teams to watch. Watching the world go by in South Beach is a sport in itself; and  if you like boating  you’re in luck.

I came for the real estate too.

If timing has ever been on my side, its now. For the first time in a long time there are opportunities that haven’t existed. If you’re looking to relocate or just find that special place for a second home there is a place and a price for you.

South Beach, Palm Beach, Fort Lauderdale too. It’s like candy, sweet and so many choices to choose from. Just select what you like best, and there’s a place for you.

If you like it hot, and not just the weather, then head to South Beach with its sizzling crowds of the rich and famous. [

 Home of the beautiful people. I personally like Gloria Estefan . She’s the originial ambassador of Miami; helping put Miami back on the map of great places of the world. If you’re in South Beach and you want to experience the flavor that defines South Beach then head to her and her husband Emilio’s Cuban restaurant Lario’s. Dine alfresco but stay and have one of their Mojitos and the very hot Latin music. I’ve seen the band bring people to life, dancing on table tops, my husband one of them. When you’re dinning in South Beach don’t be surprised to see your favorite celebrity sitting several tables down. Madonna, Matt Damon, P Diddy just to name a few all call South Beach home.

The designers are here too. All of them, but then that’s another story in itself.

If you like a calmer version of South Beach, then head to Las Olas in Fort Lauderdale with it’s old world charm. I think of jazz when I stroll down Las Olas Boulevard lined with its art galleries and restaurants dotted by palm trees and old oaks.

Las Olas just held its annual food and wine festival. It’s been voted one of the 10 top annual Fort Lauderdale events. Something to mark on your Calendar if you didn’t make it this year.

What is it about South Florida that makes it so special? The people, the lifestyle? It’s impossible to nail it down. Perhaps that’s it, South Florida is impossible to hold down.

Want to live at the beach? We have it!  Just walk out your back door and you can be walking in the clean white sands of our beaches.

Want to hear the ocean as you lie in your bed? We have it! Just open your windows and enjoy the mild ocean breeze as you listen to the gentle waves break upon the shore.

Want theater? We have it.  We have three of the most beautiful cultural centers right here in South Florida offering the plays of Broadway – without the hastle of working your way through the crowds.

Want gambling? We have it.   We have casinos, with entertainment, accessible from every section of town.

Want boating? We have it.  South Florida is known as the “Venice of America.”  We have marinas and yacht clubs to accommodate each boater’s needs and desires.

Want sports? We have it.  We have state of the art Hockey Stadium, baseball, and football.  We have Polo matches.

Want Golf? We have it.  We have enough Golf Courses to keep you swinging all year long.
