Wise Guys and Black Eyes

Recently, while representing the seller, Bradley E. Arnowitz, P.A. & Associates http://www.arnowitzproperties.com/seller-info.asp has been negotiating with several buyers and their representatives. As always, providing our clients with unbiased, straight forward, practical advice.

Purchasers on the other hand, seem to get caught up in the hype of the news of the "doom and gloom" without first doing their "do diligence". Making offers, at times, which proves my theory that they are ill informed or not informed at all.

Now, we a Arnowitz & Associates are all about dialogue. However, let us share with you FACTS about the marketplace. Time is precious, find a Realtor who will guide you not just appease you. STOP wasting your time. Kicking tires is fine, throwing offers that are entirely ridiculous on luxury properties that are not in distress, however motivated a seller may be will only hurt your chances at making a great deal.

Recapping, if your real, and you wish to make an unbelievable deal. (Nice rhyme!) Bradley E. Arnowitz, P.A. & Associates http://www.arnowitzproperties.com/buyer-info.asp can and will help you. Providing you with straight forward, practical, and unbiased advice. Fiercely protecting the Integrity of the deal. It is our philosophy that should both parties be slightly disappointed; a fair deal was made for all.

How can we help you?

Passover - Seder Plate


I thought it would be a nice idea to provide my friends and clients alike with an overview of the Seder Plate this Passover.

The Seder Plate:

The Seder Plate (Ka'arah) includes most of the ingredients that go into the making of the Seder. Its three matazahs and the six other items are arranged in a formation dictated by their significance and relationship vis-a-vis each other.
Here's how you set it up:
On top of a large plate, tray or cloth place three whole matzahs, one on top of the other.
Cover the matzahs with a cloth or tray.

On top, position the following six items as pictured above right:
1) "Zeroa" - a roasted chicken bone with most of the meat removed. This will represent the Passover offering. It will not be eaten.
2) "Beitzah" - a hard-boiled egg, representing the festival offering.
3) "Maror" - grated horseradish (just the horseradish -- not the red stuff that has vinager and beets added) and/or romaine lettuce, for use as the "bitter herbs".
4) "Charoset" - a paste made of apples, pears, nuts and wine. We'll be dipping the bitter herbs in this.
5) "Karpas" - a bit of vegetable, such an onion or potato.
6) "Chazeret" -- more bitter herbs, for use in the matzah-maror sandwich.

We'll also need a wine cup or goblet for each participant, and plenty of wine!
And a dish of salt water (in which to dip the Karpas).

Wishing you a Happy Passover!

Buying a Home Requires Many Difficult Decisions

Buying a Home Requires Many Difficult Decisions. Make Sure Your real estate agent is a Top Local Expert.

Your home or condominium is probably the biggest purchase your family will ever make, and it involves many decisions that go beyond simply choosing one you like.

Ask me anything; I will guide you through the entire process, from viewing homes and financing, to making sure the final contract is in your best interest:

- You will have full access to ALL homes available on the market, even listings not yet on the MLS, through my professional Florida real estate affiliations.

- My expert local knowledge of the area should be invaluable to you, not just in terms of real estate, but also schools, neighborhoods, the local economy, and more.

- Every local real estate market absolutely has its own trends and opportunities. This can vary greatly, even one neighborhood to the next. It's my job to steer you into opportunities and out of traps.

- What is the true market value of the home you are interested in? Is it priced too high? Is it a bargain that you should jump on? I help home buyers make decisions like this every day, and I'll make sure that YOU get the best value for your money.

- Negotiating with sellers can be stressful. I will help you negotiate, so that the final contract includes your best possible terms and conditions.

- You should know absolutely everything about the property you are buying! You and I will view every home that you are interested in, together. And prior to closing I will make you fully aware of any and all inspections available to you.

- Have confidence when signing documents. Contracts are full of complicated terms and clauses that can greatly affect your future life in your new home. I will give you the full benefit of my real estate knowledge and experience.
Let me represent your best interests in your search for a new home in the area. While you can see a million homes on the web, actually buying your home is another matter entirely. Buyers beware!

Click on the link http://www.arnowitzproperties.com/buyer-info.asp and ask me any question about buying a home in South Florida. It's my job to help you! There's no obligation, and I promise to respond quickly...
