Long ago (2004) I became a Realtor. Why? Why not? I have lived in beautiful South Florida for too long and I have seen this town grow up. Imagine the sensation of being uproot from New Yawk in junior high school and being place in the middle of Little Havana, imagine the sight of flat land with very few skyscrapers. I thought I was gonna die!

Fast forward to today where Miami is on the map! Miami is on the radar of the jet-setters, people in the know and of those who know where to go. Music, art, fashion all call Miami home but it wasn't always that way. Art Basel Miami Beach, Ultra Music Festival, Winter Music Conference, Boat Shows, South Beach Wine & Food Festival, Film Festivals, and...... have helped to make Miami the place to be seen. This city has so much to offer, waaay beyond its famous beaches. Having jumped back into the industry for my slice of the pie I feel it is important to promote South Florida's positives and help people find a home. Shelter is one our basic needs with so many foreclosures and short sales happening people still need to find a place to live. It's wild to see other agents balk at working with rental properties they give them away to other's (i.e. moi) who are able and willing to work hard (compared to sales). Recently I was "given" a rental client a lovely lady wanting to try living in Miami she was looking for an oceanfront condo in Miami Beach to rent for a few month and asked what condos go for, my answer: "from 20 million a month or less" I liked that reply because 1. it's true, 2. I didn't know what her budget was so I didn't assume and 3. how exciting to know if someone has $20 million to drop a month on rent they can find a place in Miami!

We all make choices, mine is to help others buy, sell or rent property in South Florida even if your budget isn't $20 million a month.
