  1. […] “Le Palais Royal” was recently listed by Coldwell Banker Previews International property specialist William P.D. Pierce in Miami. The $139 million asking price makes the home the most expensive residence on the market, according to the official Coldwell Banker blog. […]

  2. This beautiful place in Hillsboro Beach, FL is 38 miles north of Miami so, if anything, it should be tagged to Fort Lauderdale or Boca Raton, which are much closer.
