2017 is a good year to buy luxury real estate in South Florida, experts say

Here is a great article I found about South Florida Real Estate.  It certainly is a positive read! It’s a good year to snatch up some luxury real estate. According to ONE Sotheby’s International Realty’s year-end report, 2017 will be a buyers market thanks to an abundance of luxury options available. Sellers are expected to reduce their prices, particularly in the $1 million to $5 million range. That is thanks in part to the end of the election season and an increase in consumer confidence, said Anthony Graziano, senior managing director for Integra Realty Resources — Miami/Palm Beach, which produced the report. “I think a lot of people delayed purchasing decisions, waiting to see what was going to happen in the economy and the election and everything else,” Graziano said. In 2016, Miami-Dade County had 36 percent more single-family homes available in the $1 to $5 million range than in 2012, according to the report.

Tips for packing and moving

I love to move, it invigorates me! A friend recently commented that since we move so often we must be pros at it. I have never given it a second thought, but yes, I guess we are pros at it. :) Through each move we learn something different, and have thus developed quite a few tips and tricks. Here are just a few of the handy things we do when we move: -Out with the old and unused!! First of all, sort through ALL of your things. Yes, this can be a tedious process but is so rewarding in the end. Get rid of those things that you don't use any more, that don't bring you joy. By getting rid of these things first, your move will be lighter and you won't have to pack as much stuff.

1 Comment Must-Have Moving Checklist and Tips

After my next move, I will have moved 4 times in 1.5 years. The moving checklist I am sharing with you today has saved my life during this stressful time. MOVING, MOVING, MOVING My first move was from college back to my parents. In order to graduate, I had to do an intern-ship at my old home town station and work as a news producer. I spent three months there before I moved again. My second move was to my first big girl job in Alabama. In Alabama, I had the chance to really focus on my blog. I was posting 2 times a day, every day of the week. My blog was flourishing with new content. When the opportunity arose to move back to Texas, I jumped for it. This meant after 8 long months in the south, I was packing all my things together to trek back to my home state. After 10 months in my beloved townhome, I am now moving AGAIN. This time to a more permanent living situation. I am buying a house in the same city I live in now, making my moving distance tiny compared to the last three moves.
