The Russian economy is
continuing to grow at a fast pace making real estate investment in the USA very
appealing,  attracting cash buyers to the number one "hot
spot"  where location, lifestyle and sunshine make The Florida
Riviera a very desireable. Stretching from South Beach and the Bay islands up
through Bal Harbour to Hollywood the rapidly growing Russian population in
South Florida is a unique niche market.
