Just Sold by Oscar Arellano! 1100 Coral Way, Coral Gables

I am excited to announce that yesterday we closed on 1100 Coral Way in Coral Gables. The home sold for $985,000 and the proud new owner already has great plans to redesign the exterior and interior elements of the home. Some of those plans include changing the facade of the front of the home, which will mostly likely be done by creating a grand entrance way. This will change the front of the home dramatically. Interior changes involve reconfiguring the layout of the floor plan, opening up the space some more, and lots of updating. We are truly excited to see […]

I had two separate occurrences of delayed closings, one because of open permits and one because of no permits. It is important for anyone who is buying or selling a home to understand the components involved with permitting. In the first example, I saw first hand how not pulling proper permits will delay a closing. A professional window installer didn’t pull the permits for the hurricane impact windows installed in the home. Doing so caused a delay in […]

City of Coral Gables Going After Banks to Care for Foreclosed Homes

Coral Gables has increased efforts to ensure banks maintain foreclosed homes. On Tuesday City commissioners approved an ordinance that raises the annual fee for keeping an abandoned property on the registry. The fee was raised from $200 to $600.
