As a Marketing guru, CEO and The CEO Futurist, I was always asked about my "Top 5" on-stage, by the press and my c-level friends/clients. So now I am pleased to do the same at Sotheby's in ultra-luxury real estate. Here is the first of my Top 5 Gem Areas in South Florida!                                     

My #1 Gem Area: The East Delray, ZIp Code 33483, from Seagate to Gulf Stream, east of the Intracoastal. This is the #1 area on demand and purchase price. Higher Net Worth buyers from NYC Metro, select NE USA areas and even Chicago, Silicon Valley, etc. Why? Top 10 beaches (no condo towers at all on the beach), Atlantic Avenue with its restaurants, shops, galleries, music venues, etc. and the intracoastal lifestyle! No other place in South Florida has it.

And Seagate is a coveted little neighborhood where you an bike with your kids, walk your dog, feel comfortable. The point lot above reflects the majestic waterfront options. And Gulf Stream is the private, tucked away enclave for CEO's and billionaire's who do not want the hustle and bustle of Palm Beach or Miami. I just wished I had more inventory here (down 30% with bidding activity starting). Come visit East Delray (www.416Venetian.com) and Gulf Stream (www.4001Nocean106.com).
