THIS WEEKEND HAS A LITTLE BIT OF EVERYTHING
If you’re even thinking about moving this year, this weekend is a good one to get out of the house.
You’ve got a mix of higher end homes, mid range options, and a townhome, plus a few local events that are actually worth showing up for.
Let’s get into it.
3 OPEN HOUSE PICKS
Saturday, April 11 |
16180 SW 14th St
$1,190,000
12:00 PM – 2:00 PM
This is your higher end option this weekend. At this price point, buyers are expecting space, condition, and a strong overall feel. Worth seeing if you want to understand what pushing past $1M looks like in Pembroke Pines right now.
Saturday, April 11
20106 NW 9th Dr
$844,900
1:30 PM – 3:30 PM
Right in that move up range. This is where buyers start getting more selective comparing layout, condition, and value pretty closely. Good one to benchmark what mid to high tier homes are offering.
Sunday, April 12
11607 SW 13th Dr
$625,000
1:00 PM – 3:00 PM
This is your more approachable price point for the weekend. Townhomes in this range are getting a lot of attention, especially from buyers priced out of single family homes. Pay attention to how this compares in terms of space and layout.

3 LOCAL EVENTS TO CATCH
Studio Saturday: Fun with Fluid Art
Saturday, April 11 | 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM
Studio 18 Art Complex – 1101 Poinciana DrIf you’re looking to do something a little different this weekend, this is it. You’ll learn the basics of fluid art and actually create your own piece to take home. It’s hands-on, a little messy, and surprisingly relaxing. Just bring something you don’t mind getting paint on. Everything else is provided.
A Clean Room, A Clear Mind (Organizing Playshop)
Saturday, April 11 | 2:00 PM – 3:00 PM
Broward College South Regional LibraryThis one’s practical. It’s a workshop built for parents who want to get their homes (and kids’ spaces) under control without overcomplicating it. You’ll walk away with simple systems you can actually use, not just ideas that sound good in theory.
Community Tapestry Project with Magda Love
Saturday, April 11 | 11:00 AM – 5:00 PM
The Frank C. Ortis Art GalleryThis is one of those easy, drop in events where you can participate at your own pace. No experience needed. Just show up and contribute to a larger community art piece that will eventually be displayed at City Hall. Low pressure, creative, and a cool way to be part of something local.
WEEKEND WEATHER OUTLOOK
Saturday: Partly sunny, breezy, and honestly just about perfect. Morning starts around 70°F and warms up to the low 80s by the afternoon. Low humidity for South Florida, light wind, and no real rain concerns.
Sunday: Very similar setup, just a bit windier. Expect highs in the low 80s again with plenty of sun and comfortable temps throughout the day.
Translation: This is one of those weekends where you don’t have to think about the weather. Get out, see homes, hit an event, take your time.
PRO TIPS FOR OPEN HOUSE VISITORS
If you're casually looking:
Don't feel pressured to sign in or share your contact info but do be polite
Ask about days on market, recent price changes, and seller motivation
Take photos (with permission) to compare homes later
Notice the little things: cabinet quality, flooring condition, natural light
If you're seriously shopping:
Bring a pre-approval letter (shows you're a real buyer)
Ask about inspection reports, recent upgrades, HOA rules
Don't be afraid to open cabinets, test faucets, or ask tough questions
Follow up within 24 hours if you're interested. Good homes move fast
If you just want to see what's out there:
That's totally fine. Open houses are public. Use them to educate yourself on current pricing, neighborhood amenities, and what your budget actually gets you.
WANT A PRIVATE SHOWING?
Open houses are convenient, but they're also crowded and rushed. If you see something interesting this weekend and want to come back for a quieter, more detailed tour, just reach out.
I can schedule private showings where you can take your time, ask questions without a line of people behind you, and really evaluate whether a home fits your needs.
Reply TOUR if you want help scheduling a private showing for any of these properties or others you've been watching.
