Was stuck in awful traffic on atlantic ave today (shocker, I know) and randomly started looking at real estate on my phone while I waited for the bridge to go down.

I somehow ended up reading this market update from larry mastropieri about that Stone Creek Ranch neighborhood out by lyons rd. apparently some developer just listed his own "James Bond" themed house there for $85 MILLION. like what?? it has a hidden poker room and a fake amazon rainforest spa

I just don't understand who is actually buying these things. I mean, good for them I guess, but meanwhile normal people are just trying to find a decent 3/2 east of 95 without getting completely crushed by insurance costs right now. it honestly feels like delray is just becoming an extension of palm beach at this point

anyone else feel like the vibe here has completely shifted in the last like 5 years? idk maybe im just tired from the heat today

I have a daughter that is going to grad school in West Palm and has a job in Delray. Is this area safe for her to live on her own? We found a nice condo in a residential area but it's not gated and it's on the first floor.

If you've ever received two or three painting estimates for your home in Boca Raton or Delray Beach, you've probably wondered how the prices could be so different for what seems like the same job.

Many homeowners compare the final price first, but one of the biggest differences is often the work completed before the first coat of paint is applied.

Preparation can include pressure washing, surface repairs, sanding, caulking, and priming. Those steps take more time, but they also help create a longer-lasting paint job, especially in South Florida's heat, humidity, and rain.

If you're comparing estimates, ask what preparation is included, what surfaces are included, and how your property will be protected during the project.

Looking beyond the bottom-line price usually gives a much better picture of the overall value.

Hopefully this helps anyone who is comparing painting estimates now or planning a future project.

I've read Das Biergarten in Jupiter is the spot but that's a drive for me.

Any one been to a previous watch party at any of the above or have other recommendations?

Looking for a therapist in the area - preferably one who can offer a sliding scale for fees - that specializes in treating mood disorders/bipolar. Any and every recommendation helps!!

Looks like a new build above a garage with mini kitchen. Appliances in the garage below. Owner can’t decide on the rate and I want to make an offer for a pal moving down.

Anyone care to share what it’s like to live here. Looking for a 55+ condo! Thanks

Looking for poets, comedians, ukulele players, jugglers

I understood that internet is included in the HOA at Kings Point. It's that correct?

I'm going to rent a condo there and the owner is requiring that I reimburse him for internet and cable. Does that sound right?

I wonder if he has an add-on package or something that I don't want.

I’m looking to buy in the High Point community. I’m looking at several 2/2 condos. Would you share your experience with this complex? If there are FSBO (for sale by owner) opportunities that would $ave us both some money! Looking forward to being part of the community 💕

Best gym in your opinion in this area? And if you know, what is the monthly membership?
Also if there are any girls in your late20s/30s reading that, I would love to find some workout friends! 💪 dm me and we can set something up!
Thank you everyone!

Can someone explain why city water is ridiculously expensive here?

Hi! Does anyone recommend a great mommy and me class or new mom school near del ray?

Wanted to love it today. $37 for 1 single, one double, a coke and 5 onion rings. Wow these private equity firms know how to make money. If only the meat tasted like beef it would have been worth the crazy money. Super glad for all those who like it though. Lots of much better options imo. Try it for yourself and lmk your thoughts.

Hey all, I moved down to Delray back in May from NYC, my short-term lease in Pineapple Grove is up at the end of October and I’m starting to look around for my next place.

I’m looking for a 2-bedroom apartment community somewhere in the area. Pool is a must, and I’m open on location: Delray, Boynton, Boca, etc.

The biggest thing for me is the actual community/resident vibe. I’d rather be somewhere with younger professionals, people who actually use the pool/gym/common areas, and a good social energy than just pick the nicest unit on paper.

Any apartment communities or areas you’d recommend checking out? Also open to places to avoid if they look good online but feel dead in person.

Appreciate any recs!

Hey everyone, I just recently moved down to Delray and my current place doesnt have space for all of my current dog beds. I reached out yo Tri-county and Rescue Rebels who aren't accepting used beds. Is there anywhere else who may accept them? Also if anyone here wants them that's fine too ! They have fur on them but never urinated/defecated on and none have any holes or anything. Theyre just massive.

Thanks !

Hi! I'm from out of town but looking to plan a fairly large event (80-90 people) at Pop Stroke mini golf in Delray. Does anyone have any experience planning an event there? Or if you've been, did you have a positive experience? Thanks!

Just moved into a townhouse in east delray. The water pressure in the home is not too strong but I bought a little gauge to test outside and it says its normal.

Curious if this is a common problem here? I know hard water is common in south florida but seems to be worse than we are used to.

Has anyone setup hard water treatment at their homes? Effective?

Hi! I was here on a work trip maybe 5 years ago and had sushi at a beautiful restaurant. First time I ever had Pop Rocks in my sushi roll. Also had delicious seared wagu. I remember the hotel was just a few doors over from this place… if was a boutique hotel maybe Hilton!? I wish I remember the name

Does anyone know the restaurant name of this place??

hey y'all, I'm a recent college grad who started a marketing/ website business for local businesses here in Delray. I've been running it for about 1 year now, and I'm capable of building websites, doing SEO, running targeted ads on Facebook & Google, email marketing, custom software solutions and creating marketing content for Facebook, Instagram and Tiktok. I'm looking to partner with some local businesses that can't afford to hire a big company and are looking for an affordable option to handle everything online for them. If this is you or you know anybody who could benefit, i'd love to connect or get a referral.

I want the best spot around town! Trying to give my girlfriend a few good options.

Hi - looking for the newest luxury rental buildings in the area close to the beach with a 30s, 40s crowd. Any recs? Thx!
