The Story: “ALL of the family made the move. “No Dogs Allowed” limited our search. Friends directed me to the perfect home in exclusive Abitare on the Bay in Coconut Grove. It was a precious secret not on the market. My buyers fell in love. One large problem! No pets over 20 pounds were allowed! Their treasured German Sheppard must come. The seller began his campaign to allow the pet. I executed a survey of competitive townhouses and learned many allowed dogs of any size. The condo board met and approved the buyers and their German Sheppard. We were all ecstecstatic!”
