It Takes A Team To Facilitate A SALE!

As I’ve highly suggested before the significance of hiring a true real estate professional, it is also time to touch on the other facets that assist in closing the deal.

Have a lending expert on hand that is knowledgeable and ready to facilitate the process in a smooth manner and answer any questions or concern that may arise. Their purpose is not just to screen potential buyers.  They should have a reputation for being on abreast of guidelines and finding the best solutions for prospective clients. You need to know that when you accept an offer, the buyer can actually close and they’re qualified!

Another reason to select EWM for your real estate needs……

INDIAN CREEK RESIDENCE from RENE GONZALEZ Architect on Vimeo.

Who says home prices in South Florida have declined? I say…nay, nay!  Do you have an extra $60 million dollars lying around?  If so, here is your Miami paradise.  If not, there is still time to purchase a Powerball ticket.

Spanning 30,000-square-foot this newly constructed estate was designed by modernist architect Rene Gonzalez and sits on two acres by the bay on Indian Creek Island.

The home’s entry is surrounded by a 2,000-square-foot elliptical Koi pond filled with with rare species. And there is a full catering kitchen as well as a common folk person’s kitchen, that  is made entirely of teak. Still not impressed for $60 million? Well let me continue….You are sure to be ultimately impressed by the 3,000-square-foot master bedroom suite, the rooftop lawn and Jacuzzi, the chromotherapy spa and massage room at the waterfront, and the five-star movie theater. Is this your definition of a “luxury resort”? In the event you need some down time to enlighten yourself  feel free to relax in the  library. Of course with this estate you would need some ‘help’  and therefore a separate quarters for the live-in staff is also included. The grounds offer an area for yoga, a waterfall, and a 100-foot resort style swimming pool.

The only question is, where are you going to get a big, red bow large enough to wrap around this estate?
