Transform Your House Into a Home
From Kristin Baron:  REPLY
I recently read a quote by William Morris that resonated with me greatly. "Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful."

By tweaking floor plans and organizing accessories, we can help you transform your space into a well-organized and visually beautiful room that you can look forward to coming home to every day.

JABBERS, we want to know about the most unusual dress codes you've come across over years of semi-formals, graduation parties, bar mitzvahs, weddings and business events ... and tell us what you wore and send a photo!

Summertime Real Estate Sales

From Ashley Cusack:  REPLY

People always ask when is the best time to sell in Miami? Will I be hurt by selling my house in the summertime? I've always believed our market is fairly consistent (except from Thanksgiving through New Year's Eve, which slows down except for those buyers needing to close before the end of year).  The summer is actually just as busy as the rest of the year, with no change in the number of closed transactions.  In Miami-Dade County, sales occurring in June, July and August actually average 25% of the yearly sales. Historically for me, the summer has been slightly busier than the rest of the year. Over the past five years, I've averaged 38% of my sales in June, July and August, further proof that now is just as good a time to sell as any. If you are interested in selling, I'd love to help get your house sold this summer! Reply above or visit my website HERE.*





Take the Floor
From Kathy Malloy:  REPLY
Has anyone installed tile floors that look like wood? Are you satisfied with the final result? If so, can you recommend a company that sells and installs in the Miami area? All comments are welcome!


Do You Have a Candidate for JAB Spotlight? 
From Team JAB 
Do you know a JABBER who has been honored with an award in their professional field, shown extraordinary dedication to help the less fortunate, or made a notable contribution to Miami-Dade County? JABBERS, we want to know about it. Send us your nominations HERE, and let us shine a bright JAB Spotlight on their impact in a future issue of JustAskBoo Miami South.


A Roof Over My Head
From Richard Bugdal:  REPLY
I am looking for a qualified roofing company to replace a tar and gravel residential roof. Is there one you suggest I contact?





Appliance Aid
From Loris Bargueiras:  REPLY
Does anyone know of a reputable company that can service my washer and dryer? I've noticed some water build up in the section for detergents and I'd like to have someone check it out. Your suggestions are greatly appreciated!


Plan B is Better Than Plan A
From Debbie Martinez:  REPLY
Divorce is scary and heartbreaking and it will redefine you. How it redefines you is up to you. Your life is not behind you, it is ahead of you and divorce coaching is the bridge to the other side. Stand strong during this transition in your life and move through the grieving, the regrets and the bitterness into a place of peace and happiness that you deserve. Our divorce and relationship coach is a Supreme Court Certified Family Mediator. Please visit our website HERE or reply above to start to the healing process.*
