Entertainment giant moves to prestigious London address

London, UK -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/29/2013 -- Dewynters, one of the World&aposs leading live arts and entertainment marketing specialists, has relocated and taken space over three floors at the Duchy of Lancaster’s newly-refurbished Wellington House on The Strand, WC2.

The company, which is moving from Leicester Square, has agreed a ten-year lease on 14,317 sq ft (over the 5th, 6th and 7th floor) at a blended headline rate of £55.75 per sq ft, making it the biggest ever single letting by the Duchy. The leasing agents are Farebrother and CBRE.

Renowned for their global marketing campaigns, Dewynters has a wide variety of entertainment sector clients, such as Les Miserables, The Lion King, The Phantom of the Opera and Wicked and major companies such as the Royal Shakespeare Company and Stage Entertainment. Dewynters also works with venues including The O2 Arena to market events such as the British Military Tournament, the Barclays ATP World Tour Finals and The Wembley Cup.

Sarah Hall, Managing Director of Dewynters said “Wellington House offered us both the prime location and quality we required for our relocation. Its a great space and we are looking forward to our move and a new exciting chapter in Dewynters’ history.”

Paul Clarke, Chief Executive Officer and Clerk of The Duchy of Lancaster said “Our recent major investment in Wellington House has maintained its position as a prime asset. With the refurbishment, we were confident in attracting some significant names. Dewynters is one such name; an established global player, integral to the thriving entertainment industry we have here in London. Wellington House gives them premium office space right in Theatreland and we know they will continue to thrive in this location.”

Mark Anstey, Partner at Farebrother, who brokered the deal with Dewynters added,

“This is one of a few buildings in Midtown to offer this standard of accommodation. It is proving to be very popular due to its interior’s superior quality, efficient floor plates and prime location – right in the buzz of London’s creative core. The top floor roof terrace was also a real attraction for Dewynters and not surprisingly we had a number of parties looking closely at these top floors.”

Wellington House is located on the corner of Strand and Lancaster Place in the heart of London. The Duchy of Lancaster recently invested over £9 million in a refurbishment of the building, which offers some 40,000 sq ft of premium Grade A office space.

Mondays have become a busy day at Venetian Builders, Inc., Miami, since the company increased its marketing presence in Fort Lauderdale with the use of a custom-designed sales center in the Fort Lauderdale and North Lauderdale Home Depots. Mondays are when Venetian returns calls to the mountain of referrals it has received through its increased marketing efforts, including its presence in 41 Home Depot stores.

Miami, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/30/2013 -- Venetian Builders, Inc., Miami, which designs and installs sunrooms, patio covers and screen enclosures throughout South Florida, has increased its marketing efforts successfully in Fort Lauderdale and nearby, Venetian President Christopher Noe said today.

Venetian has added staff to respond to the influx of leads generated by its sales displays in the Fort Lauderdale and North Lauderdale Home Depots, and in 39 other South Florida stores in the chain. Venetian also has added crews and plans a bigger warehouse and fabrication center to meet the increased demand.

An expanded effort each Monday to respond to the increased sales leads has made the first day of the workweek busy and rewarding, Noe said.

“We try to expose potential customers to real examples of the aluminum-frame construction we do,” Noe said. “Our retail displays help us do that. When homeowners want to see what goes into a Fort Lauderdale sunroom or patio enclosure, we give them a pretty good idea of what to expect.

“After homeowners contact us through Home Depot or directly for an in-home consultation, we show them even more detailed samples of design elements and materials, right at the curb.”

The see-what-you-get approach appears to be working. So far in 2013, Venetian residential sales are up more than 150 percent across its South Florida markets compared with 2012. That comes on the heels of an 85 percent increase in Venetian residential business in 2012 over the previous year.

Noe emphasized that Venetian avoids a cookie-cutter philosophy in favor of custom design. “We design each project specifically for a customer depending on lifestyle needs, budget, home and neighborhood,” Noe said.

The quality screen enclosure and sunroom installer serves all of Fort Lauderdale, including Sea Ranch Lakes, Coral Ridge, Palm Aire, Sunrise, Lauderdale Isles, Victoria Park and Riverland Village. It also serves homeowners in Fort Lauderdale suburbs, including Oakland Park, Cooper City, Dania Beach, Plantation, Lauderhill and Lauderdale Lakes.

“One size doesn’t fit all where home additions are concerned, whether they are a solarium or a patio cover or pool enclosure,” Noe said. “Neither does one style. Not only do individual tastes differ among customers, but so do neighborhood standards.” Venetian builds in a wide range of styles and prices, and it builds not just to meet the tough Florida Building Code, but to surpass it.

Venetian has experts who deal with permitting officials and homeowners associations. “That saves homeowners time and money,” Noe said. “People get into their new rooms sooner than they think possible.”

Estimates are free, detailed and written.

The directory includes a variety of properties, ranging from condos to single-family homes. Most of these located in and around the Miami Beach area, and including communities such as Bal Harbor, Sunny Isles, South Beach, and more.

Additionally, the listing can be explored through an advance search feature that allows users to specify the specific property they are searching for. Clients can search by property type, asking price, and location. This feature allows prospective homebuyers to find the most recent property available that suits their preferences.

Similarly, the website also provides a list of the 100 most recent property sales. Information on home sales allows clients to learn about the local real estate market, which is particularly important for nonresidents interested in Miami properties. For example, users can determine what types of properties are popular, what kinds of homes comprise Miami real estate, and the health of the housing market. Like the aforementioned listing, this one also provides a detailed search option.

Berlin, Connecticut based Mortgage Broker Janet Chavez reveals mortgage refinancing secrets at a new web site that is full of free reports, a home buying guide and free mortgage calculators. The site is designed to give Connecticut residents all the facts about mortgage refinancing so they can make an educated decision when obtaining a mortgage.

Berlin, CT -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/03/2013 -- It seems like everyone in Connecticut is jumping on the mortgage refinancing bandwagon. Maybe you&aposre thinking about it yourself? After all, with rates as low as they are, the promise of lowering your monthly payments, sometimes significantly, is a great attraction for many homeowners.

But before you sign on the dotted line, there are a few things you should know about the way refinancing works so you don’t make a mistake that could wind up costing you big time.

"With refinancing as popular as it is right now, Connecticut residents have to be even more careful about shopping for the best loan," says Janet Chavez, a Berlin, Connecticut based mortgage consultant. "Even the most attractive offer can wind up being a disaster once you realize how much the loan is really costing you."

Chavez offers these tips when considering refinancing:

- You should get a significantly lower rate for refinancing to make sense. Don&apost rush to refinance unless it&aposs truly worth your while. If you&aposre working with a mortgage broker rather than going it alone, you can be assured that they&aposre bringing you the best offers out there. If you&aposre going it alone, you&aposll have to do the legwork for yourself.

- Consolidating unsecured debt with a refinance loan can be a dangerous idea. You may not be in financial trouble now, but if in a few years things change, instead of simply missing a credit card payment or two, you&aposll now be in danger of losing your home as well.

- Your credit score counts... big time. If you&aposve had credit problems in the past like a bankruptcy, it might make sense to wait a while for your credit score to recover before trying to refinance. Most lenders make it hard for people with less than perfect credit to get the best deals. But, again, if you choose to let an expert like a mortgage broker get involved in the process, they can often find loan options that most homeowners didn’t even know existed - which can save you thousands over the long haul.

The new FHA streamline refinance program provides real help for struggling Minnesota homeowners.

Edina, MN -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/03/2013 -- Many homeowners have become weary after years of promises that real help was on the way which would make their mortgage payments more affordable and enable them to avoid falling into foreclosure. However, until now initiative after initiative seemed unable to provide real assistance to property owners with FHA home loans.

Minnesota mortgage lender, Jay Dacey has finally announced the release of the FHA Streamline Refinance program which can really help struggling local homeowners since qualifying for this program is easier than ever.

Thankfully, a real effort has been made to assist Minnesota borrowers with FHA mortgages to reduce their monthly payments and take advantage of low interest rates.

HARP 2.0 delivered relief for some homeowners, but only for those with mortgages backed by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac.

What is really different about the new FHA Streamline refinance program is the reduction in mortgage insurance for those who had their loans endorsed on or before May 31st, 2009. Until now, recent rate increases had eliminated much of the savings for those attempting to refinance or meant they had to bring cash to closing. Now &aposno-cost&apos refinancing is available and that coupled with lower mortgage insurance rates can equal thousands of dollars in savings.

This now means there are no appraisals being required to qualify so being underwater or upside down on their mortgage will not prevent homeowners from refinancing. The FHA has also announced that it is waiving the necessity for credit reports and income verification to enable more Minnesota homeowners to qualify. However, it is important to note that individual mortgage lenders all have their own underwriting guidelines which may mean some income verification is needed as well as a credit check but most will still be far more lenient than trying to get approved for any conventional home loan today.

When asked about the new FHA streamline program benefits Jay Dacey of Metropolitan Financial Mortgage Company, in Edina, MN said "This program finally delivers really substantial savings to underwater homeowners and anyone with an FHA loan who has not refinanced in the last six months should seriously consider this option, even if turned down before".

Those interested in finding out more about the FHA Streamline Program or would like to see if they qualify can discover more details on eligibility and receive a customized rate quote by visiting http://minnesotastreamlinerefis.com or by calling Jay Dacey at 651-210-9593.

Coinciding with their participation at the RealTech conference in San Francisco today, Sequent Systems announced three major upgrades to their EZ Coordinator transaction management system that integrate it with popular marketing and management tools from Google, Mailchimp, and Infusionsoft. The makers of landmark real estate software solutions, Sequent Enterprise and EZ Coordinator, have recently announced major wins with EZ Coordinator. Their user base has grown by several thousand, they’ve added a strategic marketing partner and funding through the Snow Companies, all while continuing to roll out enhanced features to their users.

San Francisco, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/03/2013 -- Sequent Systems, the company that pioneered the real estate market with the multi-unit marketing software Sequent Enterprise and the agent and broker platform EZ Coordinator, is currently attending the RealTech conference in San Francisco, showcasing the latest version of EZ Coordinator. This new release features three major upgrades that are set to revolutionize the way brokers, agents, and transaction coordinators market their listings. EZ Coordinator now seamlessly integrates with three popular marketing tools: Google Calendar and Contacts, the email marketing tool Mailchimp, and the small business CRM and social marketing software Infusionsoft.

Email marketing straight from the customer&aposs database

“The beauty of these third-party integrations is that you get to keep the system you’re already familiar with. EZ Coordinator users never have to import and export data from one platform to another. We wanted to simplify things for our customers and we did so by simply making the platforms talk to one another,” said Jeremy Shoenig, VP of Operations and Product at Sequent Systems. David Lester, Founder and CEO of Sequent Systems, added that the goal is for EZ Coordinator to become the “hub for real estate lead management, transaction management and business analytics” He said that real estate professionals could now work with one day-to-day tool that is flexible and expandable enough for all needs.

The upgrades announced today open up an array of possibilities previously unseen. Having Infusionsoft and Mailchimp integrate via EZ Coordinator allows brokers to keep buyers and sellers in the loop about listings and news via email marketing. And with Google sync, the user can stick with their favorite Google tools and find their information ready to use in their EZ Coordinator transaction management system.

Big data protects from liabilities

The upgrades come after EZ Coordinator added major business intelligence features, including “EZ Insights,” a chart snapshot of the user’s lead and transaction data, and a reporting module for brokers to handle their agents’ commissions. According to Shoenig, these visualization modules make the user experience more intuitive and allow for quicker and more informed decision-making.

David Lester, Founder and CEO of Sequent Systems, believes his company’s technology will leave a lasting mark on the real estate industry: “Big data has shown to disrupt industries: sports—think of Moneyball—, finance, retail, hospitality, health, engineering, even music and entertainment. Access to real time, objective data takes subjectivity out of the equation,” he explained. This way, real estate professionals get a more accurate perception of deals and opportunities, they can avoid frustrating and costly transaction delays, and they protect themselves from liabilities.

Spectacular user growth and more funding

“The whole point of EZ Coordinator was to identify that ‘pain point’ which was bugging agents, brokers, and transaction coordinators, and to utilize technology to soothe that pain,” said Lester. “At the time, we didn’t realize just how frustrating it could be for these stakeholders on a daily basis to either not have a solution at their disposal or to have to constantly purchase a different product that solved a different need. Over time we found that we weren’t solving one problem, we were solving all of them,” he added.

Sequent Systems’ technology updates have so far paid off: “Whenever we added a significant improvement, our user base has shown palpable growth. With the January update alone we doubled the number of active users on our platform,” explained Lester. The spectacular growth and unique position in the market resulted in an uncharacteristic move. In February, Sequent’s marketing agency, the Snow Companies, agreed to invest in its own client. “We quickly realized that Sequent Enterprise and EZ Coordinator were uniquely positioned to be the market leaders in their respective segments of the real estate industry,” said Snow COO, Corbin Wood. “And with the number of devoted customers who praise the value of their products, it was a no brainer for Snow,” he explained.

About Sequent Systems:
Sequent Systems has been at the forefront of cloud based real-estate transaction management since it first launched its landmark Sequent Enterprise product, now used by condo developers and marketers world-wide. The company was founded in 2002 by real estate professionals with decades of industry experience.
