Junior League of Miami's New Board

We salute the Junior League of Miami (a volunteer organization of close to 1,000 women) and its new leadership for the coming year. From their annual Women Who Make a Difference awards banquet and the yearly Golf Tournament, the Junior League of Miami’s memorable fundraising activities directly benefit their community ventures. Their projects focus on families at risk of homelessness, violence, children's and women's health, early childhood education and foster care. The JLM’s mission is to promote volunteerism, developing the potential of women, and improving communities through the leadership of volunteers. At the JLM Annual Meeting on May 8, 2012 at the University of Miami, Past President Dana Martorella announced the new 2012-13 executive board.  Pictured: Past President Dana Martorella with Mel Black (father of Kadie Black, winner of the Rebecca Herndon Bush Community Service Award).

Four times a year, Jeannett publishes " Jeannett's Journal"  which is distributed directly to well over 18,000 residences in Coral Gables.

However, the number of homes sold and the number of homes pended, have decreased by 26% and 24%, respectively. Why is this happening? For a long time now, we have been forecasting that the price/sqft has been on the rise, but prices have now overshadowed the norm and there is too much inventory that is simply overpriced..
