The Weekly Blend is your “weekly” source covering real estate news that you just may have missed. Our hard-at-work Weekly Blend crew scours the web looking for obscure, bizarre, interesting and informative real estate (or real estate related) stories. If you have one you’d like to share please feel free to share it in our comments section or tweet about it using the hashtag #WeeklyBlend. So brew yourself a fresh cup of coffee and enjoy these stories. Maybe even share them with friends or colleagues. Happy reading!
Here are my weekly picks:

Scroll past the tongue-in-cheek Trump awards to find the best and worst designs in architecture as handpicked by Curbed. Poor, wet Miami.
It seems all good Canadian stories start and end with a wild moose. Police in Alberta are warning drivers to watch out for moose who like to lick vehicles because they’re covered in road salt.
You wouldn’t think the word “gorgeous” would be the worst word to describe a house for sale, but here is Forbes saying that’s the case.
Oops, I did it again and included a celebrity home for sale in the Weekly Blend. You can buy the house Britney Spears once lived in for a cool $9.5 million. I’ll hit you with that price one more time: $9.5 million!
Walk – and live – like an Egyptian in this pyramid-shaped cabin. However, this pyramid isn’t built in the desert, rather the serene Washington woods.
