...So, I was on my way to the beach this morning for a nice 6 mile run. Coming out of my neighborhood I look up at the roof of one of my neighbor's homes and see this... It is an Eagle!Now not many people may know this, but at the Kennedy Space Center they have an eagle sanctuary (it is about 20 miles north of my neighborhood). We also have a neighborhood about 15 miles south of me called Eagle Lake, and it also has land set aside as an eagle sanctuary. I wonder if this big fellow (he had about a six food wing span) was on his way from one to the other? 09/03/2018

I have an 80 year old client who loves to invest in real estate. Not only has he done quite well with me (we are doing our 16th Space Coast transaction) he also enjoys the process and likes to do some of the upgrades himself (yes, 80 years old and doing the work himself...not a mistake!).He called me about a month ago and let me know he wanted to add another property to his portfolio. I found a great little condo that needed nothing in terms of upgrades. It has a new kitchen, all new appliances, washer/dryer in the unit, newer hard surface flooring throughout and a great location near everything.We closed today and are about to get on the market for lease (watch for the upcoming "for lease" post :):):)). The condo is a good sized 2 bedroom, 2 full bath unit with a dining room/family roo... 08/31/2018

My clients called me a couple of months ago to tell me it was time to put their home on the market. It is a 3/2 and they had outgrown it. The family (husband, wife and five children) was just too big for three bedrooms!I had met the husband about seven years ago at Starbucks in Indialantic. He was the manager of the store at the time. As many of you know from my blogs, I go to Starbucks almost every day to get work done. He asked me many questions about homes, and we have stayed in touch even after he left Starbucks a couple of years ago. When I came to the home I pointed out some needed repairs and some small issues that would make the home sell faster. They got everything done quickly and I come by to stage the home and get photos taken.We sold in a few days for top dollar! They close... 08/06/2018

270 Baker Rd Melbourne, FLThis was such a fun deal for me. The owner of this home had listed it a few months earlier with an out of area Realtor who promised her the world (for a reduced commission rate of course). As usual with limited service, low commission Realtors, the job did not get done! I sold a home up the block from her in 2 days and my client was so happy he told her she should call me.I went by and knocked on her door and spoke with her about her home. She told me she did not trust Realtors after her very bad experience (I will not give the details here...but I would feel the same way if what happened to her happened to me). I let her know I would love to help her, but I would let her make a decision without pressure.A few days after our meeting I wrote her a note letting h... 07/12/2018

In late May I received an email from one of my great clients. She (along with her husband) purchased a condo from me in one of my favorite condo projects here on the Space Coast. She told me that a friend in the complex had a relative that was trying to buy a unit, but was having trouble...and could I possibly help.I called to find out the actual buyer was the woman's cousin in Germany. They had contacted three other Realtors about a specific unit in the complex because it would allow her to live right next door to her cousin when she came and visited. The Realtors she contacted were not able to put a deal together and it sold to another buyer...only to fall out THREE TIMES! When I called the unit was under contract (with the third buyer). I asked the agent if I could take a look at the... 07/07/2018

I have a few friends who are vegetarians or vegans. They refuse to eat meat of any kind. I applaud them. Although I do not eat red meat or poultry, I do eat some (non-farm raised) fish. The Burger Place works for me because they have one of the best Veggie Burgers I have ever had!The Burger Place is located in Historic Downtown Melbourne, FL. It is kind of an unassuming place with a really nice outside patio. I discovered it one day riding on Rt. 192 on my way to the beachside. My boy saw a sign that said best burger in town this way! I laughed and we decided to try it for lunch.When you walk in the place you will feel like you just headed back into the late 1950s or early 1960s. It has the look of an old diner.

My buyers came in from Ohio with a very interesting story. They had been working with a local Realtor for about three months. They set up a time to fly in with the express purpose of buying a home. With about a week to go before their visit, the Realtor stopped calling them back...NOTHING, no contact at all. They became frantic and called their brother (who lived locally). I had sold the brother's home for him a year or so earlier and he told my buyers to give me a call. It was now about 9:30 Friday night (yes, I answered my phone) and they were coming in Sunday morning! I moved as much of my schedule as I could and we met Monday morning. We saw 33 homes in the three days I had available...and we hit the jackpot on the last one!The details:Three Bedrooms2 Full bathsopen concept kitchenl... 04/27/2018
