In summary the listings in Broward were less for single and multi-family and the sales were more
than the previous month. In Palm Beach county the listings were a little higher for single family,
but so were sales for both categories.
With the President moments away from signing the $8,000 Tax credit for 1st time home buyers and an additional bonus for homeowners who have owned a home for the last 5 years (with income and price range limitations), the chooses are still GREAT for buying and investing in real estate.

AUGUST SUMMARY: I enjoy doing this because even I find the differences fascinating and often very encouraging for market conditions. I am frustrated by the computer data as the variances are drastic OFTEN. I ran the numbers this morning and I was concerned with the Palm Beach numbers as they were way to vastly different. I ran them again at noon and they were much more aligned EXCEPT for the Multi Family Homes for sale. The disparity from June to August still was too great. I am NOT AN Economist. I report the numbers as the computer gives them to me. Since there is a margin of computer and human error, please bear with me.
Here is the synopsis....Broward Single Family Listings are Less and the sales are just a little less. For Multi-family in Broward less listings, but more sales.
In Palm Beach County the single family listings are less and the sales are more. In Multi-Family the listings are substantial more but that is the computer generated error. Keep in mind we are only reporting the cities we sell in for Palm Beach as indicated above. The good news is that sales were higher in August over July.

The transaction closed today and I did the SNOOPY Dance!
Four hours on Friday for a closing and the HUD had to be recalculated because the escrow for the taxes was wrong....mind you it wasn't a HUGE error and the Buyer agreed they could have handled the mistake when the bank discovered it come January, but the Closing Agent said Re-Do it!
It was a Foreclosure property so of course there was a city lien of $11,000 (that was the re-negotiated amount). We won't even get into the three issues that were resolved that no one checked or knew about so when they came out to re-inspect; Code Enforcement added three more issues!!! Bottom Line they held $10,000 of the Seller/Lenders money and $1,000 of the Buyers $$
It gets better...We looked AT A LOT OF HOMES for months...Found one that worked sort of, desperate to secure a place we went back and said; Offer OK. Closing came and went and the Seller never showed up or moved out....Said they couldn't find a place to relocate to. Meanwhile my Buyers are left renegotiating their rent.
A month later we find another suitable property and ask the previous seller to sign off on our $5,000 deposit release. They WILL NOT sign because they want their listing agent to release them from the listing (after 2 years). In other words they are holding us hostage to manipulate their listing agent/company to release them. Company agreed, but agent in their infinite wisdom said No, we will not release them, because when they go into foreclosure, we will get their listing. Obviously they've never dealt with REO's before or they would realize how it works (We had already pleaded to no avail & that's OK, life has a full circle effect).
End result - We filed an EDO.....Another story....Plead all you want....you are going through the EDO BUREAUCRATIC Process!! My 1st in 25 Years..First aren't always Fun!!
Friday when we were supposed to close and the Buyers closing cost were $350.00, but they wired $3000.00, thank goodness, but still a nightmare....We were short $636.00 to close. We hurried and emailed the bank statements to show proof of funds. The bank wanted to know why there was a $1,000 deposit on Monday instead of Friday. The wife asked for an early paycheck because she was closing on Friday and wanted to have funds cleared money for improvements. We had to get a copy of the check.. WE DID EVERYTHING THEY ASKED-But it was Friday night and 6 pm..everyone went home and left us with a OH SORRY - YOU Can't Move IN. I now have a Homeless Family.
We'll end the story there and tell you that we made everything work, but it took Friday till Tuesday to get it done. I'm glad that we are tenacious but the process to get it done is still RIDICULOUS!!!!!
I'll add that there were A LOT of people that worked VERY HARD to "GET ER DONE", but the Bureaucratic Process stopped Every-ones efforts.
Hugs and Kisses in the end, but I lost weight over this one (Okay so that ain't such a Bad thing ;-) I'm Buying the Buyer the book, "The Secret", we need to work on these natural laws of positive attraction ;-)

We are a Brother/Sister team focused on finding you the best value in a home or business in Broward and Palm Beach counties. Trust Your Family's Move To Our Family's Expertise!
We are a Team of three and a family of many! Joy has been a resident of Coral Springs for 25 years, where both her girls have been through the Broward county school system. Jeff lives in Palm Beach county (Boynton Beach) with his family which makes it easy to serve our Palm Beach county customers. Jeff is frequently in Broward because Mom lives with Joy.
Julie completes the office team of three as "Eagle Eye, Detective Mello"! She is unbelievable with details and very proactive with streamlining processes! Julie has been active in real estate for over 20 years. Originally from Hungary, she speaks the language fluently. Our clients really enjoy her wit and call her the entertainment factor in their real estate transaction.
Licensed since 1985 and honored with multiple designations and accomplishments, Joy is described as, "Miss Community". Passionate about proving that REALTORS are good, honest caring people, she is active on multiple boards such as Affordable Housing, Chamber of Commerce, Kids at Risk and anything that she feels will make life better for others. A lousy golfer and a passionate reader, she loves to read anything positive, motivating and encouraging. She attributes her success to her Mom, who helped raise her two girls, while Joy was building their future.
Jeff should have been a professional mediator. He is amazing at keeping all parties of the transaction focused and happy to make sure everyone benefits in the end. Licensed since 1989, he is dedicated to making his clients get what they want. Jeff's passions are water sports, trail biking and ANYTHING that involves his family.
Like most professions there are the top ten percent in performance or productivity and there is a good reason for this. It is usually because the Top 10% do much more than is expected of them.
You've also heard that knowledge is Power. Wouldn't you want that Power behind you when you are making one of the biggest decisions of your life - finding a place you'll call "Home"?

There is so much more to selling a home than putting a "For Sale" sign up in your yard, a lock box on your door and putting your house in the MLS, then sit back and wait for it to sell.

We use every bit of this and then more on the multiple websites that we market to, for added exposure, because the internet is where the process starts.

The most valuable help for me was that you were able to diffuse a difficult, family situation, while selling my elderly parents' home in Boynton Beach. Thank you.

This is the fourth home I've purchased and this was the most professional experience of them all. You anticipated and managed what needed to be coordinated. (Very valuable to a single, woman, who works.) I loved that you had full-service vendors for me to use - home inspector, roof repair, etc.

Your team gave us very good updates (accurate comparisons of current listings and sales, also market trends) of our area during the listing process. These updates helped us to determine what prices we should list our homes at, in order to sell them quicker. You served and satisfied our real estate needs.

This was our first experience with Realtors and as long as we are in Florida, it will be our last....Joy and Jeff are OUR Realtors! We had their guidance from soup to nuts and they were very thorough. Mark & Nora Swanson 2/22/05
We want to thank both of you for the amount of work, effort and probably lost sleep that went into both selling our old home and buying our new one. You both went beyond the call of duty. Thank you for guiding us through a rather nerve-wracking process.

Joy and Jeff are the best realtors I have ever worked with....they were honest and fair and great communicators. (We sold and purchased four properties with their team.)

Excellent! Better than I expected from previous Realtors. Jeff and Joy truly cared abut the transaction. They kept me well informed throughout the sale to closing process. They did an awesome job!

Don't change a thing....you guys are great...you're a real dream team! It's great to know that there are still people out there who love what they do for a living and it shows!

Joy and Jeff were the second real estate agents we hired to sell our home....we wish we had used them from the beginning.

The seller of the home we purchased even made a comment on how professional Jeff was.

Joy's professionalism, concern and follow-up were key elements in the smooth relocation of my family. Joy was patient and helpful as she educated us on the South Florida real estate market. Your help and assistance went well beyond "normal and reasonable".
