On the beautiful and unspoiled portion of SouthHutchinsonIsland lies one of the best kept secrets in MartinCounty. Located on a pristine 37 acres that reaches from the Atlantic Ocean to the Indian River (Intracoastal Waterway).

Sandpebble Condos consist of 3 OceanFrontBuildings and 7 River Front buildings. A total of 5 heated pools (3 river side and 2 ocean side), along with deep water docks for 66 vessels. Docks are available to residents only on a first come first served basis and are available for lease at a very reasonable $1.50 per foot per month.

On the spacious grounds there is plenty of green space for outdoor activities, two hard court tennis courts and a fully equipped club house with kitchen and on-site management. Both Oceanside and riverside sections are gated for secured entry only. Residents have the use of both the river and Oceanside sections regardless of the location of their own units.

Construction of the Sandpebble complex began in 1982 and just recently all buildings were completely refurbished with metal roofs, Hardi-Plank replacement for exterior wood surfaces, complete concrete (re-bar) restoration, the installation of a bulkhead protecting and enhancing the river-side property and structures, updated landscaping and the painting of all the buildings.

For additional information and availability of Sandpebble Condominiums and other attractive Oceanfront Homes, Condos or Vacant Land, contact Gabe Sanders and/or Susan Maxwell of Premier Realty Group

Attackers Beware, this Real Estate Professional is Armed with Awareness in Safety!

How many times have you pulled into a parking spot, blabbing away on your Blackberry, just getting out of your car, lock it, without thinking about your safety being at risk? I know that I am guilty! Did you know the main reason a criminal attacks Person A over Person B is because Person A is not paying attention to his/her surroundings?

On Friday of last week, I had the privilege of going to a Safety Seminar/ hosted by the Martin County Board of Realtors. The Guest Speaker was Andrew Wooten, Safety & Security Consultant who does seminars for Realtor Safety, Identity Theft, to name a few. I had the privilege of listening to him briefly at a WCR District Forum in July.

In this class, Andrew mentioned that he has interviewed so many criminals, and the number one reason that they choose one person over another to attack, is that the victim wasn't paying attention to their surroundings. Criminals rely on the element of surprise. Andrew showed us how someone could get out of their car, immediately get physically picked up, and carried away into a van parked next to the victim's vehicle, never to be seen again. It's that easy, folks! To all my Real Estate Professionals… and everyone else out there, PAY ATTENTION......it can save your life!

Ciao 4 Now!!
