Every townhome tour I do starts with the same two questions: how old is the roof, and how old is the AC. At 9807 NW 57th Manor in Coral Springs, the answer to both is "new." That is the rarest sentence in this price range.

Just listed at $389,000: a lakefront townhome in gated Coral Reef Club, 33076, inside the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School boundary. 2 bed + loft, 2.5 bath, 1,170 sq ft.

I have been in construction and real estate since 2000, and the first thing I check is whether a renovation is skin deep. This one goes the other way. Roof, AC, paint, kitchen, every bathroom, floors, washer and dryer, closets, all done as one project instead of five weekends. No special assessment on the books, and the association handles the exterior, roof, lawn, gate, and trash.

Out back: a screened patio that opens straight onto the grass and the lake, with no neighbors behind you.

Full breakdown and photos at the link below, or call 954-300-1057.

🌴 Still flying under the radar in Coral Springs: Forest Hills.

Think oak-lined streets, generous backyards, and a park with ball fields and a playground right in the neighborhood. The homes date to the late '80s and early '90s, which means grown-in landscaping, barrel-tile roofs, and screened patios and pools made for South Florida. Best perk might be the location: center of the city, minutes from University Drive, Sample Road, and the Sawgrass.

42 days. That is how long it took this Weston pool estate to go under contract, and it closed at $1,420,000.

Luxury listings in Broward County routinely sit for four to six months, and the price cuts follow. So what made 1260 Manor Court different? Nothing was left to chance. Every room staged before the shoot. Sixty-eight professional photos, including drone work over the pool and the Tequesta lakes. And a list price set against real comps, so the home was priced to move instead of priced to sit.

The house did its part too: 4,084 square feet, 13-foot ceilings, a remodeled chef's kitchen with a quartz island, impact French doors, and an oversized pool on a quiet cul-de-sac.

I have been doing this since 2000, and the lesson never changes: whether you are buying or selling in Weston, the sale is won in the two weeks before the listing goes live. Read exactly how this one went down at the link below, or call 954-300-1057.

🌴 One of Coral Springs' best value secrets is hiding in plain sight: Forest Hills.

No guard gate, no grand entrance. Just oak-canopy streets, lots bigger than the newer builds, and Forest Hills Park (ball field, basketball, baseball, and a playground) tucked right inside the neighborhood. The homes went up in the late '80s and early '90s, so the landscaping's mature and they've got real character: barrel-tile roofs, screened patios, and that easy South Florida flow.

And it's dead-center in the city, minutes from University Drive, Sample Road, and the Sawgrass.

⚡ FLORIDA HOMEOWNERS: check your electrical panel before your insurer does it for you.

Federal Pacific, Zinsco, and Challenger panels are installed across older South Florida homes, and many of these breakers can fail to trip on an overload. That's a real fire risk, and it's a classic 4-point inspection fail that can stop an insurance policy cold.

As a South Florida native who has spent years in both construction and real estate, this is one I flag constantly. And when I find one for a client, we don't just point at it and wish you luck.

🔹 LISTING with us? We connect you with the trusted licensed electricians we refer our clients to, so you can get it replaced before we go to market and take the fear out of the sale.

🔹 BUYING with us? We confirm it at inspection, refer you for a written estimate, and negotiate it in your favor before you close.

You get the right people and a clear plan, and we work the timing and the negotiation around your transaction, so a known, fixable issue never becomes a closing-day crisis.

New listing our team just brought to market in Parkland: 10271 Peninsula Place, a lakefront estate in MiraLago.

I've been in South Florida real estate since 2000, and most homes at this level are 1990s or 2000s builds that have been re-fluffed and re-listed. This one was built in 2020. That means modern wiring, modern HVAC, impact glass on every opening, and a floor plan that actually reflects how people live now. No deferred maintenance bill hiding behind the staging.

6 bedrooms, 6.5 baths, 4,542 square feet, on a peninsula lot with lake frontage on two sides. Quartzite chef's kitchen, two-story living room, loft game room with a full-size pool table, and a covered loggia with a living plant wall.

And if you're relocating from New York, New Jersey, or California: Florida's income tax rate is 0%. At the income level where a home like this makes sense, that can mean $75,000 to $150,000+ per year staying in your pocket. That's not a gimmick, it's the tax code.

Full breakdown, photos, and video at the link below, or call 954-300-1057.

We just closed a single-family home in Coral Springs at $494,900. Original ask was $549,000. A 2023 roof, impact windows installed in 2022, and $13,000 in seller credits on top.

How? The house had water damage, and most buyers ran. I've been in South Florida real estate since 2000 with a construction background before that, so instead of guessing, we put real numbers on it. My team of water remediators, mold remediators, and construction professionals walked the property and priced every repair before we negotiated a dime. We got the sellers to remediate part of it before closing and negotiated credits that covered the rest.

Sellers say yes to specifics. Scared buyers pay retail. Prepared buyers save tens of thousands.

If you want someone who can look past the scary inspection report and tell you exactly what a house will really cost you, that is literally what we do. Full breakdown of this deal at the link below, or call 954-300-1057.

Searching for a great home in Coral Springs? Take a serious look at Forest Hills. I've sold this part of Broward since 2000, and it's still one of the best single-family values around: mature oaks over the streets, big lots with actual backyards, and Forest Hills Park right inside the community. You're centrally located off University Drive with the Sawgrass minutes away, so the beach, Boca, and Fort Lauderdale are all an easy drive. Single-family homes run from the high $400s to around $700K, median in the low $600s, and a couple of original-construction items are worth checking on the older homes (I know exactly what to look for). See what's for sale now and the full neighborhood breakdown below, then reach out.

Under contract in under 48 hours, over asking price, and here's exactly how it happened. We held a mega open house on this Whittier Oaks lakefront pool home in Parkland and had more than 40 sets of buyers walk through in one afternoon. Multiple offers came in, and the home went under contract above asking. I've sold Parkland since 2000, and you don't have to take my word for it, read what clients say: buyselldiva.com/about . When you're ready to get top dollar for your home, give us a call.
