There have been two closed sales since my last Cocoplum Market Update.  The first is located on Los Pinos Boulevard in the southern section of Cocoplum (non-waterfront).  This beautiful home came on the market back in January at an asking price of $6,250,000.  The owners just sold it for $4,500,000 which makes it the highest sale in Cocoplum all year.  The second home to sell in Cocoplum since my last market update is located at 286 Costanera Road.  The owners purchased the house in 2008 for $2,125,000 and sold it for $1,650,000 last month.  As I tell my clients, luxury real estate is at an all time low.  It is evident that homes in Cocoplum have not escaped the downturn. There are 50 homes for sale in Cocoplum ranging in price from $16,000,000 to $1,300,000 - to view them click here. A... 08/11/2010

  When you hear the word "waterfront" the first thing that most people think of are sweeping views of Biscayne Bay.  But in fact, Coral Gables offers three different types of waterfront homes: Bay Front, Canal Front and Lagoon Front.  Surprisingly of the 35 waterfront homes that have closed this year only 5 had views of Biscayne Bay.  Coral Gables - Bay Front Homes Aside from the homes located on North/South Prospect, East Sunrise Avenue and Sunrise Drive, most of the bay view properties in Coral Gables are located in gated communities such as Cocoplum and Gables Estates.  To view a list of homes that have views of Biscayne Bay, please click here.

To view this post in its original form, visit my Coral Gables Real Estate Blog.  Coral Gables has more "Old Spanish" style architecture than anywhere in South Florida.  In fact, it is hard to drive down a street in the Gables that does not have at least one Old Spanish home or building.  People seem to gravitate towards them because they are so charming and have a feeling of warmth that other styles do not.   Characteristics of Old Spanish architecture include stucco walls and chimneys, low pitched barrel tile roofs, arched windows, arched hallways, courtyards, terra cotta flooring and accents, iron trim, double hung windows and canvas awnings.   To view a list of several Old Spanish style homes that are currently for sale in Coral Gables, click here.

1. Minimize The Damage To Your Credit A Short Sale will affect your credit but not as detrimental as a Foreclosure will. A Foreclosure comes with a Final Judgment which remains on your credit report for 7 years. A Short Sale usually is reported as a “settled” account on your credit report. By maintaining prompt payments on other credit lines and diligently working on improving your credit score, you may be able to rebound to a decent credit score within a couple of years. 2. Your Personal Well Being Experiencing a Foreclosure can be emotionally disheartening. The feeling of losing your home to the bank or possible eviction by a bank can lead to many sleepless nights or even tension within your family. Living with the effects of the Final Judgement or Foreclosure on your credit report fo... 06/26/2010

  STOP :  Listen clearly... this has only been approved by the House.  The Senate still needs to approve this.   The House has passed another temporary extension for Flood Insurance. Let me repeat, (because of the misleading posts about the Tax Credit from last week ) a temporary extension has been approved by the House, good through September 30th, 2010.  The Senate still needs to vote on this extension. The program has been suspended since May 31st, 2010. Many of us in the real estate world know how important this is.  But why is the government having such a hard time coming together on this, or at least adding the appropriate provisions in order for this to work. This issue has stopped 1,000's of closings from taking place lately and or putting many in jeopardy that live in flood are... 06/23/2010

In fact anything is better than a foreclosure, but specifically a short sale is an excellent option because you have both parties working to accomplish the same goal. This scenario is a win win for both parties after the likelihood of modificaion false thru. This is the case the majority of the time. The benefits to the buyer allows the them to get a fesh start sooner than later. It will minimize damage to your credit and allow that same homeoner to purchse again in 2-3 years. Lenders prefer a short sale than to foreclose. They are not in the real estate business. They lose money foreclosing on homeowners. Which is why they would rather short sale than foreclose. Plus the rate of return is greater in a short sale than in a foreclosure. 06/19/2010

Foreclosure is one of the most devastating financial challenges that a family can face and one that many times can be avoided now more than ever. Your lender does not want your property and would rather have the homeowner find a solution so they do not have to foreclose. The options available are many, including but not limited to short sale. Following is a brief explanation of these solutions: Reinstatement A reinstatement is the simplest solution for a foreclosure, however it is often the most difficult. The homeowner simply requests the total amount owed to the mortgage company to date and pays it. This solution does not require the lender's approval and will 'reinstate' a mortgage up to the day before the final foreclosure sale.Forbearance or Repayment Plan A forbearance or repayme... 06/19/2010
