The block at the frontage accommodated service areas, reception room, quest bedroom and audio-video room where as block in the rear provides spaces for children bedrooms, main bedroom and bathrooms.

Braga! There are many people question the need to revitalize braga. They presume that this are has long been a dead commercial area because there are no sufficient parking area areas and it is an uninteresting place for younger generations to visit. Braga, which gained its popularity as bandung’s prestigious shopping street in the period of the twenties to fourties, to these people is simply a romantic memory to remember while some efforts to revive has never been more than just proposals.

In the early 2004, pt bangun mitra mandiri, which is a company under the agung podomoro group, started a surprising movement. They planned, designed and executed a prestigious mix-used project right at one site in braga street. Without even mentioning the notion of ‘revitalization’ this project has changed the shape of such a legendary area.

Even though it is a mix-used project emphasizing on retails, the catalyst of this project is housing. The apartment and hotel in this project is projected to become the captive market that will bring back the strategic economic value of braga area.

That is indeed acrusial point within the braga city walk project. In one side there is a captive market with high consuming ability and large scale of retail to support the revitalization of braga, but on the other side there is a possibility that this area as well as the surroundings will be overloaded due to the potential business competition being created afterwards, being actualized by the building of similar projects in the near future.

Real estate brokers and agents are people that work in the real estate business. They can assist real estate buyers and sellers with their needs, whether it’s a house, condo or any other type of real estate property. A real estate broker is a party who acts as an intermediary between sellers and buyers of real estate and attempts to find sellers who wish to sell and buyers who wish to buy.
Offer a Reasonable Earnest Money. You cannot present an offer with a $75 earnest money and expect a real estate agent to take you seriously. If you are concerned with losing your earnest money, consider using a real estate promissory note. In the US, real estate brokers and their salespersons assist sellers in marketing their property and selling it for the highest possible price under the best terms.
Offer a Short Closing Date. Another way to get a real estate agent to take you seriously is to offer a fast closing. If the real estate agent has another offer presented to him, he will usually advise his client to take the offer with a larger earnest money and faster close than an offer which is higher in price.
While some people may refer to any licensed real estate agent as a real estate broker, a licensed real estate agent is a professional who has obtained either a real estate salesperson’s license or a real estate broker’s license.
Insist on Presenting Creative Offers in Person. it will not be represented to the real estate owner in the same enthusiastic fashion. As stated above, real estate agents do not like creative offers – they like conventional offers from solid real estate buyers. Commissions are negotiable between seller and broker. If you can offer the real estate agent an incentive to make money out of the transaction, you will get his cooperation. If you present a lease/option offer on a listed real estate property, how will the agent receive a commission?
Most real estate agents are not this formal and will take any offer in writing to the seller. Simply summarize your offer in writing and fax it to the listing real estate agent. Unlike the typical real estate agent, buyer’s brokers work exclusively the real estate buyer. The buyer’s broker can be paid directly by the buyer, or can be given a portion of the commission earned by the real estate property seller’s agent.
