Over in Highland today, The locals call Highland Beachsimply Highland. Anyways I was showing Highland Real Estate. To a nice couple who are going to move down from New York in a year or two. We were at Toscana in Highland and also at the Highland Beach Club. We also showed them other buildings in Highland. Casurina, Villa Costa, Trafalgar, etc. Anyways, when we were at the Highland Beach Club. We saw a Manatee swimming a little ways out from there day dock. This made for a nice memory for them for Highland Beach. They had never seen one before. Unfortunately most people do not realize what a gentle creature they are. With how most boaters, go thru this area. They are at risk.

First let me tell you once again. Before hiring a contractor, check them out with the Better Business Beureau. You should also check them out with the Palm Beach County Dept of Consumer Affairs or the Broward County Department of Consumers Affair. Now this will not guarantee that they will be ethical or finish a job as promised. However, this will improve your odds quite a bit. Also, get contractors that have done work for people you know. A good contractor that will do it for less. Will give you far less than you ever bargained for. Also, Remember that even though you are paying the contractor. You have to make sure they pay the subcontractors and suppliers. If you don't, there will be liens on your property. You may, also have to pay two times to get one job finished.

I was in the Wellington, Royal Palm Beachand The Acreage area this weekend showing properties on an acre or more. I am pleased to tell you that there are still properties that are available that are very nice starting around $299,000. and up. There was a very large 2.5 acre parcel for $399,000. that is a pre foreclosure. Actually it was a mini jungle.
You would probably have to take a bulldover to it. Anyways, I had a very sweet couple who I was showing homes to. We found an acre mini estate in Palm Beach Ranchettes this is a oasis of calm in what is now the hustle and bustle of Lake Worth in the Western Suburbs. Palm Beach Ranchettes is located just west of the turnpike and north of Lake Worth Rd. This is a community worth checking out.

Well its happening. Everthing and nothing in Boca Raton plus Highland Beach and of course Delray Beach. There is no consistency in the market place. Most of the sellers are still greedy. Wanting to make 25% profits compounded over the last 4 years. While the buyers still think that everyone is one step away from foreclosure and will have to losse hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Neither side is going to have it their way, it may be to late and the market is just muddled down. When both sides see that they have to find a win win situation it may be to late . There are good deals if your going to live in the property. Plus its to late to think your going to buy and flip and walk away a millionaire. If this is what you think. Buy a lottery ticccket.
