Paradigm Real Estate Solutions Revitalizes Sales and Marketing for Real Estate
Thursday, January 05th, 2012 /


Danville, CA (PRWEB) October 05, 2011

Paradigm Real Estate Solutions, a California sales and marketing firm, has shaken up the housing industry with a fresh, performance-driven approach to selling real estate assets. While regulatory bodies are struggling to determine who in real estate counts as an employee and determine if mortgage terms need to be extended, Paradigm is focused on building relationships and increasing sales using proprietary software, creative pricing strategies, and an arsenal of traditional and Internet-based marketing tools.

Many builders, developers, and financial institutions have nowhere to turn when looking for a complete solution that offers both sales and marketing services for their real estate assets, says Patrick Burke, President and Chief Strategy Officer at Paradigm Real Estate Solutions. We help companies with a large number of properties move them quickly by revamping sales methods, optimizing sales funnels, and identifying hidden opportunities based on deep market research.

Paradigm Real Estate Solutions has seen great successes very quickly, including selling over 50 homes in two one-day sales events in St. Louis, selling 10 homes in 30 days with a website re-launch and Internet marketing strategies for a Washington community, and completely selling out of a Maui community in just 5 months.

Arizona Life Coaches Victor Cuadra and Flora Schule and Internationally Known Horse Whisperer Koelle Simpson Team Up for a November Workshop in Arizona
Thursday, January 05th, 2012 /

Phoenix, AZ (PRWEB) October 17, 2011

From November 11th through the 13th, equus and life coach Koelle Simpson is joining forces with world class relationship experts Victor Cuadra and Flora Schule for a transformational workshop experience that blends relationship coaching and horse whispering. Victor and Flora’s company, Creative Life Solutions, offers coaching to powerfully connect with the people in your life with a background of love and intimacy, going well beyond where normal relationships plateau, while Koelle’s horse whispering instruction offers workshop participants a chance to practice implementing what they’ve learned through coaching, receiving hands-on feedback from their intuitive four-legged teachers. A horse will reflect and respond to who the human actually is in that moment with it, rather than who that person thinks they should be.

This powerful blend of experiences provides participants with practical ways to reconnect with their true heart’s desires, and come to a place of clarity and love and to be fully present without fear. Along with coaches, partners and friends, the horses can be some of our greatest teachers as participants learn about ourselves and help lead the way to refining and living the numerous insights and breakthroughs participants will experience during this course. These gentle animals can help humans recognize their true nature and find their inner voice. In this workshop, participants will clarify main directives that guide them in the course of a healthy relationship, find genuine peace regarding past and current relationships, and learn how to sense and project emotionally stable energy without confusion.

Koelle Simpson is a world-class equus coach and life coach. She is an internationally acclaimed leadership and communication expert. Most recently featured on the OWN Network series Finding Sarah, Koelles message has made profound impact on leaders, corporations and change agents around the world, from South Africa, Europe and the UAE to Canada and the United States. Koelle has trained with best-selling author and renowned “horse whisperer” Monty Roberts, as well as internationally acclaimed life coach, best-selling self-help author and columnist at O Magazine, Dr. Martha Beck. Her work with horses is designed to help others rebuild trust in themselves and unleash the powerful leader that lies within everyone.

Victor Cuadra and Flora Schule operate Creative Life Solutions, based in Phoenix, Arizona. As trained life coaches, mediators and transformation experts, Victor and Flora offer workshops, classes, retreats, meditation sessions and ceremonies. They have led week-long relationship intensives in such places as Kauai, but hold most of their weekend workshops and extended sessions at their retreat center in the desert north of Phoenix. At Creative Life’s sacred property in the beautiful Sonoran Desert, Victor and Flora offer a diverse curriculum designed to promote healing processes and healthy relationships in every facet of life.

California Vacation Rental Business Booming
Wednesday, January 04th, 2012 /


Arnold, CA (PRWEB) November 15, 2011

Cedar Creek Realty, a vacation rental and property management company in Arnold, California reports that vacation rentals are being snapped up in the area.

“This was the best July we’ve ever had. It was record numbers for us,” said Kelley Stellar, vacation rental manager for Cedar Creek Realty in Arnold. “Many people who used to take their vacations to Hawaii, Europe or Tahoe are coming up to the Arnold area these days.”

Stellar believes this is partly due to the poor economy and partly due to the recent “discovery” of the Arnold area by young families in the East Bay of California’s San Francisco Bay Area.

Stellar estimates there are between 150 and 300 vacation rentals available in the greater Arnold area. Renters often just stay for the weekend, but week- and month-long stays are becoming increasingly common.

From a business perspective, experts believe that turning a second home into a vacation rental is a good way to supplement income. “It’s a great idea in this point in time,” Stellar said. “All of my rentals are second homes. Now, because of the economy, they have decided to rent them out for extra income.”

Stellar said that along with the booming rentals, home sales are also up in the area. “We get people who actually are up here looking to purchase a home to put it in a vacation rental program. They know that now is a good time buy.”

There are two main seasons for vacation rentals. During the summer, families come up for vacations and enjoy the lakes and rivers and exploring the mountains. In the winter, numerous skiers head to the hills. “From the third week in June (when kids get out of school) through Labor Day” is a booming time, Stellar said. “We start getting busy again when the snow flies around Thanksgiving. That lasts through Easter.”

Who rents?

People come from all over the state and beyond to stay in the cabins and homes in the Arnold area.

“Most people are coming in with two to three families,” Stellar added. “They rent the larger houses. Usually, it’s families. People in their 30s with children ranging from 5 to 13. We get a lot of them from the Bay Area.” Luckily for owners, there are very few younger renters, and the cabins do not receive very much damage. “We don’t get a lot of the 20-somethings up here,” Stellar said. “Almost all of them are families. I really don’t get a lot of damage. I might get a spill on the carpet from kids carrying a Coke. Really, it’s very good.”

Why Arnold?

“People have actually started to discover us,” Stellar said. “We have a whole lot to offer. Once somebody comes up here once, they go home and tell their friends and bring their friends up. Then they come back up year after year. They often use the same cabin every year. It’s kind of a tradition. It’s actually becoming a big draw.”

“If you’re taking a family of five to go skiing and go to Tahoe, you spend a bundle. You can come here instead and spend a lot less.”

“I think it’s more beautiful here,” Stellar said. “It’s a beautiful easy drive from the Bay Area. The people up here are incredibly friendly. There is so much to do. From Murphys all the way up, there is so much diversity.”

Blue Lakes Springs is one of the most popular rental areas because there’s a lot to do within the subdivision.

“Most people are looking for the recreation areas,” Stellar said. “Blue Lakes Springs is very popular because of all the activities they offer. Most families want something for their kids to do.”

This popularity of the vacation rentals has led to home sales rising as well, as some vacationers want a permanent home in the scenic Highway 4 corridor.

About Cedar Creek Realty

Mountain living is a unique experience. Cedar Creek Realty’s staff offers both the local knowledge and the big city expertise to handle the real estate needs of full-time residents and second homeowners from the San Francisco Bay Area.

New Applications Fuel Higher Demand for Radiometers
Tuesday, January 03rd, 2012 /


Boulder, Colorado (PRWEB) September 06, 2011

Radiometrics Corporation, a privately held company headquartered in Boulder, Colorado, has announced successful deployments of its MP-3000A microwave radiometer system for wind energy and utility load forecasting applications. Additionally, an MP-3000A recently deployed with the U.S. National Weather Service is providing crucial real-time weather data for aviation weather forecasting.

The MP-3000A is a passive microwave receiver system that provides continuous, real-time atmospheric measurements of temperature and water vapor up to 10 km height. This critical forecasting data was previously available only from twice-daily weather balloon launches at a limited number of locations (fewer than 100 in the United States). Utility companies are now using MP-3000A data to improve short-term energy demand forecasts, and wind stability prediction for wind turbine power generation. MP-3000A instruments deployed in Hawaii and most recently in the Los Angeles basin are expected to show a rapid return on investment.

Additionally, an MP-3000A deployed with the U.S. National Weather Service in Denver Colorado, is providing real-time weather information to the Denver Air Route Traffic Control Center (ARTCC). Staff meteorologists at the ARTCC monitor the continuous data from the MP-3000A, and use this information to fill in the gaps between twice-daily Denver weather balloon launches when generating short-term forecasts for the air traffic controllers.

Demand for the MP-3000A is expected to grow as businesses and government agencies reap the benefits of dramatically improved local moderate to high-impact weather prediction. In addition to energy load management and aviation weather, applications include severe weather forecasting, weather modification, air pollution monitoring and forecasting, and climate research. The company also produces radiometers optimized for remote measurement of soil moisture, sea surface temperature and salinity, and snow depth and snow water content.

Radiometrics Corporation pioneered commercial ground-based microwave radiometry over two decades ago, and continues as the world leader in microwave radiometer product innovation and sales. More than 200 of the companys radiometers are now in operation worldwide. Proven, patented designs ensure optimum long-term, all-weather performance for operational and research applications. Our rugged, compact thermodynamic profilers observe three dimensional air temperature, humidity and liquid features that define local weather.

Hyatts Hawaii Resorts Near Completion of $73M in Property Renovations
Tuesday, January 03rd, 2012 /


Honolulu, Hawaii (PRWEB) September 22, 2011

Hyatt has long been welcoming guests to Hawaii with authentic aloha spirit, originating with Hyatt Regency Waikiki Beach Resort and Spa, one of the first resorts to open its doors on the islands 35 years ago. Since that time, Hyatt Regency Maui Resort and Spa and Grand Hyatt Kauai Resort & Spa have also opened world-class resorts, establishing a prominent regional presence that the properties are renewing through extensive renovations and upgrades at all three resorts.

Hyatt was one of the first major hotel brands to put down roots in Hawaii, and the upgrades at all three properties on Oahu, Maui and Kauai underscore the region as one of our premier resort destinations, said Carlos Cabrera, Hyatts senior vice president of field operations.

Highlights from the renovations at each of the resorts include:

Hyatt Regency Waikiki Beach Resort and Spa

Hyatt Regency Waikiki Beach Resort and Spa is nearing the completion of an in-depth $ 13 million renovation that when finished in fall 2011 will reintroduce guests to the classic Hawaiian hospitality of a bygone era. The refreshed resort will embody the graciousness and authenticity of Hawaii at the turn of the 20th century, while creating a modern and dynamic entertainment center with the addition of two new restaurants, Shor American Seafood Grill and Japengo; SWIM, a new poolside lounge and bar; an upgraded pool deck; and the new oceanfront Regency Club Lounge.

Fresh on the heels of the renovation, the property has also announced extensive new programming to offer guests authentic Hawaiian cultural, arts and entertainment experiences that represent both the old and new Hawaii. As a gateway between the east and the west, the resort pays homage to its proximity to Asia with Asian art, culture and cuisine, anchored by the new Japengo restaurant, due to open in October. The west-facing Diamond Head Tower beckons groups for cultural events steeped in Hoonanea, the welcoming, relaxing, peaceful aloha spirit harkening back to early 20th century Hawaii. The Hoonanea gathering space is the resorts unique area for private events, accommodating up to 100 people and anchored by a new exhibition-style kitchen that infuses events with an engaging, interactive culinary component.

Hyatt Regency Maui Resort and Spa

When Hyatt Regency Maui Resort and Spa opened in 1980, it set the bar for high-end resort destinations and invited guests to an oceanfront experience embodying the essence of Maui. The propertys trendsetting indoor-outdoor atrium-style design, extensive gardens, water playgrounds and distinctive art collection created a resort-as-destination model that has since been emulated around the world. More than 30 years later, the property has emerged from a $ 15 million transformation, reinforcing its reputation for offering luxury accommodations and service in a setting of rare natural beauty. The 806 newly-renovated guestrooms reflect modern Hawaiian luxury, with a sleek yet comfortable style expressed through plantation-style platform beds, white linens, boldly-colored textiles, custom lighting and notable artwork.

The revitalized culinary experience offered at Hyatt Regency Mauis recently-opened signature restaurant, Japengo, has elevated the property as an even hotter island destination. The restaurants hip, sultry vibe and innovative Pacific Rim cuisine are accentuated by an open-air garden lounge, Moon Bar, and Sushi Lounge, where guests can watch resident sushi chefs hand-roll sushi and nigiri to order. Japengos Executive Chef Matt Smith emphasizes fresh locally-sourced produce for an exciting menu that balances authentic Asian culinary techniques with contemporary Hawaii flavors.

Grand Hyatt Kauai Resort and Spa

Grand Hyatt Kauai Resort and Spa recently celebrated its 20th anniversary with the unveiling of a $ 45 million guestroom renovation to all of its 602 rooms, which now boast island-inspired d
