It’s A Small World!!!

As a state licensed home inspector (HI5596) I have done hundreds and hundreds of Wind Mitigation Inspections and 4-Point Inspections throughout South Florida. Last week I got to inspect a home built by Centex Homes in Fox Run in Plantation. It was the “1982” (Meaning 1,982 SF of air-conditioned living area). For me it was like walking into a time capsule.

You see my first job after I graduated with my MBA from the University of Florida in 1987 (and BCN 1985) was working as the Contracts Manager for Centex Homes in Fort Lauderdale and I actually budgeted each and every cost to build this very home on the “Greensheet”. I could have done the inspection blindfolded. But wait! There’s more! The Homeowner was the Land Developer’s Rep with whom I shared a construction trailer from 1997 – 2004 when I was the Project Manager at Lake Estates at Rolling Hills in Davie.

Who can guess precisely where I was when I took this photo?!?

Faith Builders LLC is doing a Holiday Springs condo bathrooms remodel in my old hometown of Margate ( #22-0631). On demo day after the guest bathroom toilet was removed an area of the 1st layer of wallpaper was exposed. It was VERY shiny and VERY colorful!!!
NEXT: The first 5 inspections have all passed and tile installation begins on Monday...

In Remembrance of Alain Brodeur, Sr.:
Pretty much every single one of my long-time Faith Builders customers will have memories of Alain working in their homes a decade ago. His skills were unmatched. When I was the Project manager of Lake Estates at Rolling Hills Alain was the superintendent of new home construction when Phase 3 was opened in 2002. Sales shot the roof and Alain and I found ourselves with 62 homes under construction at one time! With teamwork and many long days we pulled it off. 2 years later we worked together at Leonard Albanese & Sons in Boca Raton. When I went into business for myself as a General Contractor Alain was one of the first people I hired. He had a passion for something called Drum Corps and eventually asked me so many time I finally relented and attended one of the competitions. It was AMAZING!!! I have been connected to his family for decades and to this day his niece Lisa Brodeur-Quinter is my Real Estate Broker. Alain suffered a major stroke a weekend ago and he was just moved into hospice and was very soon welcomed to his heavenly home. Please lift up all of Alain’s family & friends as they rejoice in their memories of him.

Full Circle after 19+ years!!! I did a home inspection earlier this week in Lake Estates at Rolling Hills in Davie. Of course I supervised the construction of the 225 homes there when I worked as the Project Manager for Country Club Homes of Broward from 1997 - 2004. Every house has a story. This has many!!! :-)

Full Circle after 40+ years!!! I am scheduled to do a home inspection today in Lauderhill and when I looked up the address it turns out to be a home that was built by Design Dimensions back in 1979 when Vic Breffle & I were high school students and we worked on the construction of it as laborers on weekends making $5/hr.

Essential X 3!!!
My plan for today was to celebrate Independence Day with a leisurely scenic drive completely around Lake Okeechobee with my beautiful wife Bunny as we celebrate our fourth wedding anniversary. However, the tenants of one of my customers called first thing this morning to report water flooding their first floor condo unit that I manage for the out-of-state owner. Soooooo...

Dorian is projected to hit the east coast of Florida Monday morning as a Cat 3 hurricane!!! For those of us at the southern tip of the Florida peninsula we are starting to breathe a sigh of relief however we are quite concerned for our many friends just up the road a piece.

PHEW!!!!
I was worried there for a few days!!!
😀😃😄

If Dorian survives its trip out of the Caribbean, a blocking high near Bermuda will essentially prevent the storm from escaping out to sea. The European ensemble model spread is large, but the theme of Dorian moving west/northwest towards Florida, and perhaps the Gulf, remains intact. Next few days are critical in helping to determine the eventual track and intensity of Dorian. I will keep you posted .
