WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO MAKE IT A GOOD BEACH DAY IN MIAMI, FLORIDA?First, as any realtor would tell you - location. Have to pick the right spot. Then, it’s food and water, as in ocean temperatures.  For us that beach spot in Miami is usually Haulover Beach in northern Miami Beach, for a number of good reasons.  The sun seems to be more prevalent at Haulover than in other locations. Why? I don’t know, but when we were leaving Midtown Miami with our beach gear yesterday, it was pouring,  and in South Beach also, as was evident by the rain clouds and radar readings. Later, when we were blissfully sunbathing on Haulover, we watched the rain clouds “unloading” farther to the south and west and even heard thunder claps in the distance.  Another huge advantage of Haulover Beach, particularly in M... 09/12/2016

The Faena Forum, a new arts space was designed by none other th... 09/08/2016

Have you ever come across a feature of home that just doesn’t feel right? Maybe a weird add-on or a bathroom that feels out of place? Most likely this was done for more personal reasons than “design reasons”. These odd add-ons and DIY projects can devalue your property.Here’s what we have to say about it…Although you may “think” you may never sell this property, there may come a time that the home needs to be sold. Always think forward and try to save the money and consult professionals to do projects correctly the first time around.
