Your Conchquistador is Named to the Board of Directors for The Florida Keys MLS, INC !!!

Honored is a light word for how I feel about being named to The Florida Keys MLS, INC's Board of Directors.

Professionally, to be recognized by your peers as having the requisite experience and background to be a custodian of the "spine" of our industry is certainly...humbling.

I would like to thank the Academy, my Agent, Harvey Weinstein...whoops...wrong honor.

All kidding aside, as a Board Member, I, along with my fellow members, will be involved with overseeing, maintaining, developing and improving, our Multiple Listing Service.  Of course as a Conchquistador, you know that I have strong opinions and ideas on how to make our MLS, the best in the Business.

In this new era of Zillow and Trulia, et al, REALTORS face new challenges with disseminating reliable and accurate information to their clients and customers.  It is incumbent upon us as the MLS to offer the best source of that information, REALTOR to REALTOR and REALTOR to Customer.

I look forward to the challenges at Hand!

An Almost $1M Discount!! Just Closed in Prestigious Venetian Shores - The Conchquistador Deal of The Day 1.15.2012

136 San Remo Drive, Islamorada
2012 is certainly arriving with much gusto!!  And the heart of that real estate gusto is centered right on Venetian Shores.  Venetian Shoes has long been a popular and in-demand community here in Islamorada...and why not?  When this community was developed off Snake Creek, they had the foresight to dredge deep...really deep.  Venetian Shores is the best option for those hard and true boaters and fishermen with big burly. deep draft vessels and a channel that keeps them out of trouble as some other channels in the area are thin and sometimes traverse into skinny water.

Hey I like Venetian Shores because most of the streets have Italian names like Stromboli and Palermo.  Your Humble Conchquistador's last name in Italian, Marinelli, literally means "The Little Sailor"!  So as you can see I was destined to be by the water and Venetian Shores is idyllic, but I digress.

Today's Deal is Tropical...Elegance.
