This is just a sampling of the properties we have.

We also have other 1 and 2 bedroom condo's located all over the Miami Beach area, from South Beach all the way to Canyon Ranch, the premier destination spot in all of Miami Beach.

Let me now what you're looking for... I'm sure to be able to provide it for you.

Heat? What heat...

What does Miami Beach conjure up when you think HOT?

• Is it the Miami Heat basketball team? (who almost won it all until Lebron James fell asleep)
• Is it the HOT water at the beach (which is so warm right now it feels like a bathtub...)
• Is it the HOT nightclubs people from all over the world come to frolic and enjoy in?
• Is it the HOT restaurants that are world-reknowned and have won numerous awards?
• Is it the HOT latinos that have so infused this city with their dynamic mix of "alegria" and zest?
• Is it the HOT people you see walking around seemingly everywhere you go in Miami Beach?
• Is it the HOT properties that are vintage Art Deco with their splashing colors and dynamic style?
• Is it simply that Miami Beach has epitomized "HOT" for decades now... going back to the throwback years of Jackie Gleason in his heyday when he and his cronies would come here to have a great time.

Miami Beach right now is one of the HOTTEST places you can travel to right now. The city has gone ALL OUT to make it an unforgettable experience for you. From the multi-million dollar renovation of South Pointe Park, to the unforgettable experience of walking in Lummus Park right next to Ocean Drive... you name it and Miami Beach has it.
When you're ready to come and experience our HEAT... and you want to stay in affordable luxury that is a cut above your typical hotel room experience... then give me a call. We have several homes that will exceed your expectations while keeping your budget in check.
Hope to see you soon!

Too Cold for Miami Beach!

Brrrrrrr!!!

So now I know what it's like in the rest of the country to suffer from cold winter conditions. Usually at this time of the year, we'll get a cold front come through that dips the temps down to the 50's maybe, then after a couple of days its back up to the mid 70's with lots of sunny skies.

Well, this cold snap we've had has been the worst on record (at least it feels like it to me). I'm talking consistent temps in the 30's now for the past week! What?!?

If we're going to have this much cold, the least it could do is snow, right? Well... there's no hills so what's the use...

Seriously, we're just not prepared for this kind of cold here... at least I'm not. I'm hoping in the next week that it warms up... I don't think I can take this much longer... ;-)
