About Me
Remember, the listing agent was hired by the seller to get the highest possible price for their property. They are contractually obligated to represent the seller, not you!! As our customer, we will represent you when you are ready to make an offer on a property. Our buyer representation services are free so it doesn't cost you any more to be represented than it would if you were to call the agent representing the seller, and you'll probably get a better price.

Time and Money are both precious things---I will save you both. Did you know that home buyers spend an average of 3 months looking before they purchase? South Florida is too beautiful to spend your time driving from sales office to sales office searching for the right development. I can do it for you! I have a huge network of information on the best developments as well as what is planned to be built and not yet on the market. From West Palm Beach to Miami Beach and everywhere in between, at all prices and for all lifestyles, I can help you find the perfect home quickly!!

The REALTOR® Commitment

Through it all, the REALTOR'S personal and professional commitment is to ensure that a seller and buyer are brought together in an agreement that provides each of them a WIN-WIN that is fair and equitable. Their motivation is easy to understand. For most full-service brokerages, there is no compensation unless and until the sale closes. By contrast, there are firms that offer limited-services in exchange for either an upfront flat fee or perhaps offer a menu of pay-as-you-go or a la carte services. Some even offer a sliding scale from limited to full service. In these cases, the REALTOR'S compensation is based on the level of service they provide. In short, it's the age-old market adage that 'you get what you pay for'.


We are an aggressive sales organization and will list your property making sure it gets top exposure and traffic.

Pricing:
First, we have unparalleled knowledge of pricing strategies, local trends and prevailing market conditions. We put this knowledge to work for you, in order to maximize the potential of your property.

Marketing and Exposure:
Second, we promote our properties more heavily and more effectively than other firms. Incredible distribution, powerful industry connections, and our network of thousands of agents to get the job done! Add to this exciting technologies such as virtual tours, high resolution photography and the result is high impact advertising for your home.

Negotiation and Successful Transaction:
Finally, we work on your behalf, and only on your behalf. Unlike many agents who are interested only in closing a deal (any deal?), we are committed to representing our clients with a tenacious negotiating style and steadfast promise to drive the best agreement for our clients.

short sale vs foreclosure

Scott Miller answered:
Short sales are what happens before a home goes into bona-fide foreclosure by the bank. I don't see many short sales closing in this market. Foreclosures, on the other hand, are closing quickly and you're able to get answers from the banks in 24-48 hours.

A foreclosure is the process when the bank actually gets title back from the owners. They can then go out and sell the property.

GOOD LUCK,

Hi,

I hope this helps you with your search!

Tax Deed Sales
Amy Stein, Manager
(561) 355-2962
E-Mail Us

Tax deed sales are the auction of property on which tax certificates have been sold by the Tax Collector’s office for delinquent real estate taxes. Tax deed sales are held pursuant to Florida Statutes Chapter 197.

The Clerk & Comptroller’s office conducts the tax deed sale. Properties scheduled for tax deed sale are published in the Palm Beach Daily Business Review newspaper and are available to search online. View general information and requirements.

Redemption
Property may be redeemed any time prior to the issuance of a tax deed. The redemption amount is listed on the "Notice of Application for Tax Deed" mailed prior to the sale.

Redemptions prior to the date of sale should be done at the Tax Collector’s office, 301 North Olive Ave., Third floor, West Palm Beach. For redemption on the date of sale, bring full payment to the Clerk & Comptroller’s office at 205 N. Dixie Hwy., Room 3.2300.

Full payment must be made in cash, a cashier's check drawn upon a U.S. bank, or an attorney’s trust account check drawn upon a Florida Bank. Payment must be made payable to the Tax Collector. The Clerk will not accept a personal check, third party cashier's check or credit card.

Hi Lj,

Boca Raton is a GREAT place for families. There are so many fantastic places to raise your children here and most of the schools are A-rated. If you look to the left of this screen on Trulia, you will see highlighted links for both Schools and Crime and Safety. The best way to get a feel for the town is to make a trip down here so you can see Boca Raton firsthand.

Please feel free to contact me. I can tell you much more about the real estate in the communities you're looking to live in.

Good luck!

Hi,

I'd prefer you go back to the agent you're working with and tell him/her that you want all of the listings in the area you are looking that come up under 'bank owned' and NOT 'short sale'. Personally, I've seen tons of agents, buyers and sellers wasted lots of time trying to bring a short sale to the closing table. Many of the banks are overwhelmed by the offers received and don't look at a deal seriously until they actually own it, making it 'bank owned'. GOOD LUCK - Mon May 5 2008, 14:07

Properties with 50% price reduction drop?

Scott Miller answered:
Hi Henrik. I would stay away from both Port St. Lucie and WPB. Port St. Lucie has no redeeming value or qualities you would find worthwhile for a long term investment with upside potential. WBP is so overbuilt that it will take years for property values to return to where they should be. Instead, I would be looking in once particular section of East Boca Raton and another in Fort Lauderdale, also east. Please feel free to contact me at my email: ScottSellsFL@gmail.com for more information about these opportunities.

Best of Luck!!
