ptg studios features Commission Connection
Uploaded by ptgstudios

PTG Studios is pleased to announce the selection of Commission Connection for its innovative, educational television series, Pulse on America. The company will be featured in the segment “Cash Flow Management Solutions” as part of the “Inside Real Estate” series.

Realtors are frequently the last to get paid when a house is sold, and in today’s world, the house may sit on the market for lengthy periods of time before the sale. Yet, those who work in real estate also have to maintain their own homes and pay their bills, so balancing their finances is sometimes tricky.
Commission Connection is a privately funded corporation based in Greenville, SC, that has served real estate professionals nationwide since 1997. The firm is owned and operated by active real estate professionals who understand that projecting monthly expenses is far easier than projecting monthly income. To remain successful, money must always be available when a business or person needs it. Their service is designed specifically to assist agents and brokers with cash flow needs when business expenses arise prior to the settlement and payment of a commission. In months where expenses outweigh commission income, the service enables agents and brokers to accelerate the payment of commissions on properties under contract to cover their expenses.

After researching the widely used, well-regarded business practice of factoring, Commission Connection applied it to real estate commissions and proved that both agents and brokers can increase their success. The service enables real estate professionals to accelerate the payment of commissions due them from pending residential contracts, as needs arise. The fee for the service is a small percentage of their pending commission and is tax deductible. Its design gives agents and brokers the financial freedom and control most sought when initially choosing a career in real estate. It is not a loan. The service is used to better manage income fluctuation associated with selling new construction and working in seasonal markets.

The Horizon paint brand is manufactured and distributed by Cloverdale Paint in western Canada and Rodda Paint in the Pacific Northwest area of the U.S. The two companies merged in 2004. Combined, they have five paint factories and operate over 100 company-owned stores. Horizon is also available through authorized dealers of the brand in western Canada, Oregon, Washington, Idaho and Alaska.

Cloverdale Paint is one of the founding members of the BC Paint Care Association, now the Consumer Product Stewardship Program, which operates paint recycling depots throughout British Columbia. The companies are also committed to reducing or eliminating any harmful impact on the environment from their operations through materials recycling programs and initiatives.

Cloverdale and Rodda Paint, family-owned and operated, have shared values regarding preserving cleaner air for our future. Producing millions of gallons each year, the companies have grown into one of North America’s largest regional manufacturers.
“Someday all paints will be made this way,” says Todd Braden, VP of marketing for Rodda Paint.

--Texas eco-development from Clarke & Wyndham--

Deerfield Beach, FL – PTG Studios is pleased to announce the selection of The Villages of Indian Lakes for its innovative, educational television series, GREAT TASTE. The organization will be featured in a segment on “Developments of Distinction” in the American Real Estate Series.

What has been the best kept secret in Texas till now—a new master-planned development that is ecologically sensitive (or concerned or conscious), protects the environment now and in the future, and yet is just one hour north of Houston, TX—will soon be featured on the Great Taste show, which will air on The Travel Channel, Discovery Network and regional news networks.

The Villages of Indian Lakes offers 1.5 to 10-acre estate home sites, surrounded by miles of hiking and equestrian trails, a 50-acre trophy fishing lake, with boat ramp and pier, a pool and sports court, all set amid more than 200 acres of habitat conservation. The development is in the award-winning school district of College Station, home of Texas A&M, and is highly deed restricted, set in a rural setting that preserves the natural beauty of the habitat. All utilities are underground. It is one of the largest master-planned environmentally sensitive communities in the southern U.S., and TXCAMCO, a Texas conservation community association management company, oversees the quality assurance.

The builders and homeowners must conform to preservation guidelines on every home site and promote the overall habitat plan. They are encouraged to practice energy efficiency and preservation of natural resources in every way possible.

The company does this “not only for our generation, but for future generations,” says Paul J. Clarke, president of Clarke & Wyndham. “There really is a developer providing affordable communities…that are developed around the concept of sustainability. It’s the best alternative to fence-to-fence living, integrating neighborhoods into the natural habitat.”

“You CAN have it all” is their motto….and The Villages really does offer that, with maintenance-free living, outdoor activities, unspoiled setting, great location and so much more!

ptg studios features Cinnamon Shore
Uploaded by ptgstudios

PTG Studios is pleased to announce the selection of Cinnamon Shore for its innovative, educational television series,
Great Taste. The new community will be featured in the segment “Second Home and Retirement Destinations” on “America’s Best” series.

Located on Mustang Island, a beautiful 18-mile long barrier island along the Texas coast, Cinnamon Shore is a unique beach front community that goes beyond what you’d expect from a typical home or condo by the sea. It’s actually a new kind of gracious shore community that offers discriminating owners a simpler, better way of life.

Designed according to the principles of New Urbanism, Cinnamon Shore features a true neighborhood of stunning homes with a strong sense of place and style. The entire community features architectural details to please the eye and open spaces with things to see and do including a grand, spacious boulevard leading you to the beach; several community pools including one surrounded by natural dunes; an extensive and pedestrian-friendly network of streets, sidewalks, and trails; a hauntingly beautiful natural dune park; a state-of-the-art exercise facility; retail space for shopping, restaurants and much more. All of these amenities are within a short ten minute walk.

Compared to similar pristine locations on the Gulf coast, quality lots have been surprisingly affordable. Inevitably, though, values are beginning to rise as more people discover this coastal paradise.
Phase One of Cinnamon Shore consists of 82 individual parcels designated for single-family homes, with almost 50 of them already sold. Lots vary in size and proximity to the beach, but each one takes advantage of extensive streetscapes and landscaping, natural wetland sanctuaries, ponds, walking trails and a whole host of features like swimming pools, an on-site hotel and conference center, a workout facility, and boardwalks to the beach.

Mustang Island is often referred to as the best-kept secret on the Texas Coast. For generations, it has been prized for spectacular fishing and bird-watching, expansive beaches and temperate climate. Best yet, Cinnamon Shore is a short drive from Corpus Christi, San Antonio, Austin and Houston.

PTG Studios will feature the Costa Rican Investment Board, CINDE, for its innovative, educational television series, Business & Beyond. It will be featured in a segment on “Economic Development--Investment Opportunities Abroad.”

The Costa Rican Investment Board (CINDE) assists foreign investors in establishing their operations in Costa Rica. A private, nonprofit organization, CINDE has an expert staff that will provide complete, updated economic and business information, prepare customized visits to the country, assist in making initial contacts with suppliers and professionals, and do any follow-up required to establish the operation. All of these services are part of their free assistance.

For example, recently CINDE announced that Intel had invested $110 million in Costa Rica for the manufacturing of “chipset” in addition to its already successful operation in the country, because it has found good prospects in Costa Rica’s investment climate conditions.

Costa Rica assigns the utmost importance to the influx of foreign investment into the country, not only for balance of payment reasons, but most importantly as a significant contributor to the generation of employment, technology transfer and diversification of exports. As a rule, foreigners have exactly the same rights as locals for conducting business in Costa Rica. Therefore, companies and individuals can establish operations in several ways and in almost every industry without limitations. This also means that the possibility of creating strategic alliances between foreign and local companies is only limited to identifying the right market opportunity and finding the right partners in the country.

Within that context, CINDE works to foster Costa Rica's development, by serving as a catalyst and facilitator for the investment process in the country. From its non-political, non-sectorial interest position, CINDE has excellent relations with both the public and the private sectors. CINDE has reorganized itself and now concentrates in promoting Costa Rica as a competitive investment site in three sectors that benefit from significant strengths and advantages that the country has to offer: Medical Devices, Electronics, and Services. A fourth sector, Special Projects, includes projects in areas such as textiles, tourism, and others.

CINDE’s offices in New York and California proactively look for expanding companies and provide tailor-made services to investors. An additional team in Costa Rica advises on how to do business in the country, creates customized itineraries according to the investor’s needs, and provides support during and after the establishment of operations. CINDE develops a long-term relationship with the investor established in the country and is committed to providing continued assistance as may be required.

Costa Rica offers attractive tax incentives, other important foreign corporations, preferential access to important markets, and highly skilled and educated human resources among other advantages, as well as the free professional assistance from CINDE.
