Sunny Isles Beach Condo Market | An 8-Year Snapshot

Why 8 years? Originally, I had the idea to research Miami condo trends going a decade back but after researching further, our trends & stats only go back to 2009. I then thought a 5-year study would be adequate to prove the point but it didn’t show the scope of our condo market roller coaster as we exited the blood bath of 2007 through 2009. The bold buyers who stepped in and bought with great leverage around 2009 did exceptionally well with their investment properties as we see below. Additionally, new construction has added to the South Florida condo inventory with several residential developments such as Chateau, Regalia, and Porsche Design Tower now gracing our Atlantic coastline.

While the average homeowner trades their residence every 7 years, it’s more like every 2 to 3 years in Miami.

Ample inventory, limited buyer pool – these are the fundamentals of supply & demand and our current condo market is living proof of what it means to be in a strong buyers market.  An article from Forbes this week interviews Mr. Defortuna in which he states that EIGHTY percent of buyers at Brickell City Centre are foreign. This is typical in Miami as global investors trade condos like New York trades stocks. And because of the strong U.S. dollar, many of our International buyers are simply waiting.

So what’s the conclusion, my friends?
