Why Location is So Important in Florida Real Estate?

 

Due to the increased demand for condominiums, purchasing a luxury condo can be a profitable investment, as condos provide a high return on investment. However, a condo with a poor location on the market is unlikely to give you the best value for your money.

When purchasing a luxury condo, the location is quite important. It’s the one constant about a property, and it can either add or subtract to the value of the unit. For example, if a condo is located in an area that is seeing industrial expansion, it will most likely increase in value over the following several years as more investors, entrepreneurs and job-seekers relocate to the region. Notably, remote work expansion, low mortgage rates, low taxes, along with a luxurious lifestyle, have all led to a surge in South Florida’s real estate market.

The ease of access to a condo’s location is another factor to consider. It should be close to major highways and public transportation, and preferably in a neighborhood with attractive public areas and landscapes. Take into account the particular lot location as well, as future neighbors such as commercial properties, new parks and other housing possibilities, among other things, may have an impact on the condo’s value.

One of the most sought-after condominiums in South Florida is the Continuum in South Beach. This resort-style condominium is located on 100 South Pointe Drive in the prestigious South of Fifth (SOFI) district, close to award-winning restaurants, boutiques and clubs, as well as the city’s world-famous beaches. Not to mention the breathtaking views of the city, Biscayne Bay and the Atlantic Ocean.

Celebrate Easter Egg-Stravaganza in Miami Gardens

 

It’s only a matter of time until the Easter holiday arrives. To mark its 9th annual Easter Day celebration, the T5 Foundation is inviting the community to join in on the fun with their Easter Day Extravaganza. 

The event, co-hosted by the City of Miami Gardens and funded in part by the Children’s Trust and numerous other supporting organizations, will take place in Miami Carol City Park on April 17, 2022, from 12:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. There thousands of colorfully decorated eggs will be dropped from a helicopter as part of the annual egg hunt and egg drop. In addition to eggs filled with treats and secret prizes, the T5 Foundation will also provide STEM activities for children, along with live music, food trucks, free rides, games, raffles and much more. Free haircuts will be provided with the support of community sponsors on a first come, first serve basis.

The T5 Foundation was founded in Miami, Florida to encourage community outreach. Their mission is to reduce poverty, hunger and homelessness. Since 2010, the organization has held annual food, clothes and toy drives for needy families. Every year, the Foundation strives to expand and reach out to more residents of Miami-Dade County and the surrounding towns. Don’t miss out on this fantastic family event, where there will be something for everyone to enjoy.

What to Consider in the Resale Value of a Luxury Condo

 

Due to the increased demand for condominiums, purchasing a luxury condo can be a profitable investment, as condos provide a high return on investment. Here are a few things to consider when investing in a luxury condo.

 

In the Miami condo market, different floor plans have varying resale values. Larger floor plans typically have the most resale value. Even individuals who are single may choose a larger apartment with a separate office, den or guest bedroom. This as the demand for pure one-bedroom apartments is lower than larger units. Similarly, there are very few top penthouse apartments in South Florida, which keeps the demand higher, even during a downturn in the market. If you want to maximize the value of your Miami condo when it comes time to sell, you should purchase as much space as your budget allows.

 

If you buy a condo in a high-rise building, the floor on which you live has an impact on the resale value. The higher the floor, the better the resale value is usually. Residents of luxury apartment buildings in Miami desire panoramic views of the cityscape, Biscayne Bay and the Atlantic Ocean, which are often uninterrupted from higher floors. Even if you buy a property on a lower floor with wonderful views, there’s a chance that another developer will build something close that will block the view. 

 

It’s no surprise that Continuum in South Beach is one of the most sought-after luxury condos in the area. 100 South Pointe Drive in the South of Fifth (SOFI) district is home to a slew of award-winning restaurants, boutiques and clubs, as well as the city’s world-renowned beaches. With 318 units, one to five bedroom condos and penthouses ranging from 1,200 to 5,000 square feet, Continuum offers a diverse range of living possibilities.

South Beach’s Artisan Food Market Is a Must-Visit

 

On March 27 and April 24, the SOBEWFF Artisan Food Market on Lincoln Road will feature a rotating roster of Miami’s best eats. The market allows small food entrepreneurs and home-grown businesses the opportunity to showcase and sell their artisanal creations on one of Miami’s most popular shopping destinations.

 

Just up the road from Continuum South Beach, The SOBEWFF Artisan Food Market is the place to go if you crave cookies that send you back to your childhood, cinnamon breads, burgers, smokehouse BBQ favorites and much more. Initially started as a way to combat the pandemic, a limited number of pop-up markets were set up for local food artisans to promote their products and services. Now, more than 75 vendors from around South Florida will showcase their artisanal products on the world-famous Ocean Drive in Miami Beach as a larger seasonal event. 

 

This year’s SOBEWFF Artisan Food Market will focus only on small food and restaurant businesses, in keeping with the Festival’s mission to help the local community. The market will be located between Lincoln Lane North and Lincoln Lane South on Michigan Avenue.

Condo Activity Continues to Soar in January, Surpassing Previous Highs

Existing condo transactions increased for the 16th consecutive month as Miami-Dade County real estate extended its historic run with its best-ever January sales month. 

 

According to the MIAMI Association of Realtors (MIAMI) and the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) system, Miami’s existing condo sales rose by 31.7 percent, from 1,243 to 1,637. When compared to January 2020, condo transactions have soared by 68.8%. 

 

For existing condominiums, the median percent of original list price received was 97.3 percent, up 3.2 percent from 94.3% previous year. The median number of days between the time a condo was listed and when it was sold was 40 days, down 36.5% from 63 days. The median number of days it took to sell a condo was 87, down 21.6 % from 111 days. Furthermore, cash sales accounted for 49.4 % of all existing condo sales in Miami. The high percentage of cash buyers reflects Miami’s position as the primary American real estate market for foreign buyers, who tend to buy with pure cash.

 

Miami real estate is in high demand from both domestic and international purchasers. The expansion of remote work, low mortgage rates, Florida’s low taxes, reduced Covid laws and luxury lifestyle have all contributed to Miami’s sales growth.

The World’s Greatest Tennis Players Return to Miami

The famed Miami Open tennis tournament is currently the most popular ticket in town. The Miami Open is hosted at Hard Rock Stadium on Miami’s north side. The tournament runs from March 21 to April 3 and features a tennis oasis with 30 exhibition and practice courts, the world’s largest television screen and a 14,000-seat Center Court, making it ideal for both players and spectators.

Miami’s bustling nightlife, five-star hotels and restaurants, stunning weather and celebrity appeal make the two-week combined event the most luxurious stop on the ATP and WTA calendars. Tennis fans can look forward to two weeks of world-class action at the Hard Rock Stadium courts. Fans can enjoy food, music, and artwork created by some of Miami’s most talented artists as part of their experience. To accommodate the growing number of tennis fans, Hard Rock Stadium has renovated its Stadium Court to incorporate new infrastructure, increased seats on the outside courts, and more green space for them to enjoy in between sets.

Hungarian Hubert Hurkacz, who won the title last year, returns to the men’s draw. He’ll face a strong field that includes the defending champion Daniil Medvedev (who won the US Open) and World No. 2 Daniil Medvedev as well as Olympic gold medalist Alexander Zverev.

South Florida’s Real Estate Market Continues to Stay Hot

South Florida’s Real Estate Market Continues to Stay HotThere’s no denying that Florida has become a popular destination in recent years. According to projections from the Florida Chamber of Commerce, an estimated 26 million people will move to South Florida by 2030. The real estate market in South Florida has been driven by population growth, which has been fueled by people and businesses migrating from high-tax urban areas.

 

Miami’s real estate market continues to set new records as a result of pent-up demand and historically low mortgage rates, which continues to stimulate real estate transactions. It’s also because more Americans and businesses are coming to South Florida from high-tax, high-density cities, which is fueling demand for real estate in the area. Multiple Listing Service (MLS) data shows that Miami-Dade County real estate had its best-ever December sales month in 2021, closing out the historic year with a slew of year-end records, including the most annual total home sales, the highest annual dollar volume, the highest number of single-family home sales, most condo transactions and numerous other milestones.

 

Many people from the northeastern states have moved to Florida because of its low cost of living, pleasant climate, and less restrictive atmosphere. As a result of the remote work revolution, many telecommuters are able to work from a warm environment without having to pay state income tax in South Florida. While rising home prices may be bad news for many homeowners, it’s good news for Continuum South Beach rental property investors, helping to explain why rental growth and demand in South Florida are so high.
