Made to Order Mansions
Article Abstract:
Steve Chefan is the president of Stevenson Building and Design Inc. which specializes in multimillion dollar homes. But unlike many realtors who sell expensive homes, Chefan who sells in wealthy, trendy Boca Raton, Florida, sells his homes completely furnished. Chefan and his wife sell their completely done homes (down to coordinating toilet paper) to the rich as second or third homes. Their clients appreciate the total luxury of a completely furnished home, they are often tired of the tedium that can be associated with home decorating, and these homes are often purchased for their investment value.

Article Abstract:
When National Video Center and Recording Studio relocated to a former large, empty airlines hanger in New York, they could not have anticipated the combination of luck and being in the right place at the right time which would contribute to their enormous success.

By the time the demand in the field had lessened, National was already into a new area, stereo television. National's owners realize that innovation in their industry is fleeting, and they hope that their luck holds out.
