This was a fun project. My client called back in November to get recommendations before he put this home on the market. I suggested updating the property (spending about $30-35k) rather than putting it out as-is. He was reluctant at first...but finally agreed.His only stipulation was that I pick everything out because he has zero taste! We got to pick out tile, flooring showers, tubs, toilets, paint and fencing!With the completed renovation last week, we got all the papers ready and staged the home. I then entered it in the MLS! On day one we received our first full price offer, on day two we received our second! We finally put a deal together late yesterday!He is happy because we brought it in under budget and added about 65k in extra $$$$$$If you are looking to buy or sell a home on t...

I love many different styles of food, and I often get a craving for Vietnamese food. I love the sauces and the different play on many traditional Asian delights. I must also admit that I have yet to find a really good Vietnamese noodle house on the Space Coast! With that in mind I recently stopped at Pho Cali Vietnamese Noodle House on Wickham Rd in Melbourne, FL (the location is a mile or so south of Eau Gallie Blvd on the west side of Wickham).  The good news here: They certainly do not scrimp on portion size or options. The place has a huge menu, so if you like Vietnamese food you are likely to find quite a few dishes that will work for you. The food on the other hand, while acceptable was not the wonderful explosion of taste well made Vietnamese  food can entice you with. I ordered ...

  Restaurants that Serve Chinese food can generally be broken down into two categories:1. The take out/delivery store front (they may have a table or two inside for those looking to eat in, but they are about packing you up and sending you on your way).2. Sit down "New York Style" Chinese restaurants that usually have paper mats with the Chinese Zodiac and you will of course receive a fortune cookie at the end of your meal.What I love about Tely's Chinese Restaurant in Melbourne, FL is that it does not fit into either of these categories! Tely's Chinese Restaurant serves fresh ingredients, light sauces and some traditional dishes with a twist! The clean and fresh food, atmosphere and design is a marked change from what is often served at many local competitors. Warning: if you are looki...

Since Melbourne, FL is a beachside town, visitors expect us to have great seafood. Although we have quite a few places that serve some pretty tasty seafood dishes, they are mostly larger restaurants that are designed to serve hundreds of tourists and locals.Seafood Station in Melbourne, FL is exactly the opposite! This place is a small,  with a seafood counter and some frig and freezer cabinets. What they do offer is a varied menu that will really appeal to the seafood lover in you! The tables they do have are all outside and are long picnic style tables that are meant to be shared!The food is pretty darn amazing! They offer most choices in a New Orleans style boil basket. The prices are fair Examples:Single Whole Lobster Basket: $15Double Whole Lobster Basket $26 (example photo)I will ...

On the surface it seems that buying the biggest, most updated home in a neighborhood is the way to go. when shopping for that new home, right?But is buying the top property in the neighborhood a buyer's top decision?  When it comes to buying a home there are a few things buyers should avoid buying including... the largest house in the neighborhood. the most expensive house in the neighborhood. an over-improved, highly personalized home. Why would any of these become a "problem?"  I am hesitant to call these factors problems but they should be considered when making home buying decisions.    When it comes to value the largest home's value could potentially be held back by the neighboring homes - especially if they are smaller, older or not maintained as well.    And although a house shou...

We have quite a few really good pizza places in the Melbourne area. I was told by a couple of my clients that I needed to try Slices at 3760 W Eau Gallie Blvd Ste 101 Melbourne, FL 32934.First: the location is not ideal for a restaurant in the Melbourne, FL area, not real close to large population areas. It is close to some large warehouses which may answer the question as to why Slices is closed on Saturday (hours Sunday through Thursday 11-9pm, Friday 11-8pm).In terms of the food, the thin pizza is very good. It is a traditional thin crust NY style pizza. They use traditional NY style pizza ovens and the pies and slices are cooked well!The Sicilian style pies are less traditional. They are thinner square crusts (closer to a Chicago style than Sicilian) but still quite tasty. Slices al...
