Florida Travel — Miami Travel: Bicycling in Downtown Miami and Miami Beach
As the cold weather starts to settle in over Canada, it’s always a real treat to get away to a warm and sunny destination. And there is no closer and more convenient destination from Toronto than Florida. So I used up some of my Airmiles to book flights for my husband and me to Miami. On November 27, 2010 we arrived at the Miami Airport, picked up our rental car and drove north to the City of Weston, where we would be spending a week at the Mizner Place Resort in a well-equipped one-bedroom apartment. On Sunday, November 28, 2010, I drove south into Miami to do some sightseeing where I visited Villa Vizcaya, an opulent mansion that was constructed between 1914 and 1919 for James Deering, an industrialist and heir to the International Harvester fortune. Built in a Venetian and Renaissance revival style, this National Historic Landmark impresses with its interior courtyard, its formal reception rooms, lavish private living quarters and its breathtaking location on Biscayne Bay. My explorations continued on Monday with a trip into downtown Fort Lauderdale where I explored the Las Olas Riverfront. Las Olas Boulevard is Fort Lauderdale’s most popular shopping avenue and the Las Olas Riverfront is an entertainment complex that features several restaurants, nightclubs and retail outlets, all set on a scenic waterfront promenade along the New River.

Real Estate Today: Best Homeowners Insurance in Florida (Part 2 of 3) – Koolik Group Realty Video
Posted by admin in Condos Wednesday, 9 March 2011 01:46 No Comments
www.koolik.com In this episode of Real Estate Today with Elliot Koolik of Koolik Group Realty, we will join Lisa Pacillo, President of All Risk Insurance Group and licensed insurance broker, in deciding how to choose the best homeowners insurance policy in Florida. Lisa will explain Citizens homeowners insurance in Florida and how it compares to private insurance companies. Citizens homeowners insurance can not deny anyone in Florida but is largely a last resort insurer. Independent agents and brokers can offer more options if you are purchasing a home or changing insurance companies because of dropped coverage or increased premiums. Premiums can be reduced by increasing deductibles. For damages caused by anything other than a hurricane, such as a pipe breaking or roof collapse, there is the all other peril deductible, which can be set at $500, $1000 or $2500. Hurricane deductibles are set at 2%, 5% and 10% of the dwelling amount. There are also discounts available for homes with storm shutters, roof mitigation certificates, alarm systems, homes in gated communities and condos with central sprinkler systems.
