Maintenance and engineering managers often spearhead the initiatives to achieve sustainable operations in institutional and commercial facilities. The most recognized standard for certifying sustainable design and operations is the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) rating system from the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC). In April, USGBC released the latest version of the rating system, LEED version 3 (v3). Managers most likely will be directly involved in overseeing LEED certification projects in existing buildings, so a closer look at LEED v3 and, more specifically, LEED for Existing Buildings Operations and Maintenance (LEED-EB: O&M) will shed light on the way the newest version of the rating system will affect managers and their organizations. The technical advances of LEED 2009 are based on three enhancements: harmonizing prerequisites and credits for increased consistency; adjusting credit weightings based on their impact on human and environmental health

If you have ever been to a real estate auction it is definitely something to behold. Tons of people looking for that next big steal and hoping to walk away with the deal of the century. but what they don't know could hurt them. I took one of our clients to the auction in miami beach to bid on a coconut grove home we were targeting afte seeing numerous properties in the area. When our property came up we weeded the low ballers out and narrowed it down to 2. We had a set price and was able to get it more than 10% below the foreclosure asking price. We got a great deal. I Carlos del Amo and my real estate team will get you the a great deal on your next home purchase.

I have the pleasure to say that The Charting a course team just recently sold this incredible city view unit 3312 in Ugo Colombo's latest project The Epic. We were able to secure financing with only 35% down for a foreign national with a 30 year fixed mortgage. If it can happen we will find the way. See this video of the Epic and call us more information about making your downtown Miami dream come true. We can steer you in the right course when it comes to real estate in Miami.

Downtown, or sometimes referred to as the "Central Business District", is the area north of Broadway, east of I-95, and south of 17th Terrace.[1][2] Inside of this area includes Park West, the area due west of Bicentennial Park and northern Brickell. Other areas that are many times adjoined with Downtown is the area to the north: Midtown, which is north of 17th Terrace and Brickell to the south.
