Sunny Isles Beach – Continuan los Proyectos – Esta vez de un Grupo Desarrollador con Experiencia en Latinamerica

Uno de los desarrolladores con mayor trayectoria en Sudamérica y un creciente portfolio de tierras en el Sur de la Florida planea construir un edificio de super lujo en un terreno sobre el oceano en Sunny Isles Beach en el condado de Miami-Dade según informan varias fuentes.

El Chateau Beach propuesto de  35 pisos con  84 residencias en Collins Avenue constituirá el quinto proyecto que se lanzara a la construcción en  Sunny Isles Beach en los últimos seis meses.

En total más de 20 torres de condominios con 4300 residencias se estiman se construirán en la zona de los tres condados del Sur del estado de la Florida. Al 31 de diciembre, Fuentes citan que aún quedan 4200 residencias directas de desarrolladores a la venta. Aunque la demanda sigue en alza y los desarrolladores se encuentran reacios a negociar los precios.

Con mi blog RealGreenTrends continuare brindándoles informes de mercados que también incluirán oferta y ventas de los últimos desarrollos en la zona que incluye ciudades como Golden Beach, Bal Harbour, Sunny Isles Beach, Surfside, Aventura, Hollywood/Hallandale Beach, Downtown Miami, South Beach.  

El siguiente paso para el proyecto  Chateau Beach condominios tendrá lugar el  16 de febrero de 2012  cuando el desarrollador  – una sociedad de Florida controlada por el  Grosskopf Group of Argentina – deberá presentarse frente a Sunny Isles Beach City Commission para una audiencia pública  sobre el propuesto proyecto  de acuerdo con una Notificación de la Ciudad de  Sunny Isles Beach

El Grupo Grosskopf desarrolla e invierte en torres residenciales y shopping centers en Argentina y Uruguay. El grupo desarrolló varias torres como Chateau Libertador y  Chateau Puerto Madero. 

En el Sur de la Florida el Grupo Grosskopf, ha adquirido varios terrenos para desarrollos y se estima que continúe adquiriendo más. Desde el  terreno donde se erige el Ocean Palm Motel enCollins Avenue en Sunny Isles Beach al ex Paramount Park en 728 Biscayne Blvd. en Greater Downtown Miami, según los registros del  Miami-Dade County Property Appraiser Office

En Sunny Isles Beach, el terreno para el proyecto Chateau Beach fue a subasta el 9 de enero de 2012 y el titular del registro Chateau Beach LLC,  con  Manuel Grosskopf, ganó la misma y obtuvo titulo el 27 de enero de 2012 según los registros del Miami-Dade County.

Si el Chateau Beach se aprueba en la sesión de febrero las pre-ventas podrían comenzar inmediatamente junto con la construcción alrededor de septiembre de 2012, según un bróker de la Florida. Se estima que los precios oscilarán $650 a $800 el pie cuadrado con un depósito total del 50% del precio de venta.

El tamaño de cada residencia oscilar+a entre los 1,500 pies cuadrados hasta mas de  9,000 pies cuadrados

De continuar este ritmo de ventas de las residencias de desarrolladores superior a 40 por mes, las residencias restantes serían absorbidas en el primer trimestre de 2013.

El precio de lista medio para las residencias en Sunny Isles Beach es de$536 el pie cuadrado.

Aventura Real Estate – Market Report for December 2011

This is my last report for the year 2011, and it is very encouraging to see that the following numbers coupled with the National news regarding housing and employment show signs of reactivation in the economy overall. It is positive to end 2011 with such a good note.

Market Report for Condominiums and Townhouses in Aventura, Florida 33180

Let’s take a look now at the Aventura condominium and townhomes numbers.

 

The Aventura Condominium Median Prices increased from $337,000 foot to almost $390,000. This is the result in part from an increase in demand,  reduced inventory of short sales and foreclosures, and an increase in condo sales.

As I mentioned in the earlier paragraph, there’s a drastic drop in condominum inventory from over 1025 residences for  sale in January 2011 to below 700 at the end of November 2011.

 

The Condominium Median Price for Aventura townhomes and condominiums increased  from below $232 per square foot to above $255 per square foot.  This fact is not surprising given the increased demand and sales activity recorded in the past months.

 The above numbers and charts show signs of recovery and I look forward to an interesting real estate market for 2012. Happy Holidays.

Bal Harbour Lifestyle

by

ADRIANA FAERMAN

My Buyers are thrilled to have bought at One Bal Harbour in Bal Harbour, Florida.

They bought a great waterfront luxury condominium at a great price. But above all, they chose a lifestyle. They are now enjoying themselves and everything One Bal Harbour and this town has to offer. Including great restaurants and the closeness to the Bal Harbour Shoppes.

And they are also delighted with …. Mr. Collins

They know this is exactly what was missing. Coming right from the beach ready for …. Burgers. Fried pickles. Beer.

Well, One Bal Harbour is introducing Mister Collins, an oceanfront temple of comfort food and craft beers, now soft-open at the tony One Bal Harbour hotel before its official opening in three weeks.

You’ll recall this used to be a hushed fine-dining spot. But the new team has lightened things up a bit with hardwood floors and whitewashed walls. And they’ve kept the basic feel of the cruise-ship-like dining room: the floor-to-ceiling windows framing views of the Atlantic, the deep leather chairs, the abundance of shrimp cocktail.

But on breezy nights, you’ll want to start on the waterfront patio (also called the View Bar, for obvious reasons) overlooking speedboats power through the Haulover inlet. Start off with a round of $5 pints of Fort Lauderdale’s Native Lager (Dale’s Pale Ale is also on draft) and work your way through gussied-up American classics like the #1 Ahi Burger made with nori mayo. Your pairing: sides of fried pickles and mac and cheese upgraded with jumbo lump crab.

MIAMI BEACH REAL ESTATE – HOMES FOR SALE NUMBERS ON THE RISE

Didn’t we say that real estate is local?

Well, recent news continue to support this statement:

What happened to the sale of Miami condominiums during the month of April?

Sales of Miami condominiums increased by 94 percent in April, compared to the same period in 2010, according to the Miami Association of Realtors. There were a total of 1,404 condo sales in April, compared to 723 in April 2010.

What about sales of single-family homes in Miami?

They rose 40 percent in April.

Who is buying?

Well, according to the Miami Realtors Association, 60 percent of closed resales were international sales, along with 90 percent of new construction sales.

When I talk to my colleagues, we all agree that inventory is shrinking; and this is very encouraging  because the market is outperforming expectations.

Most buyers come from Brazil,Venezuela, Argentina and other Latin American countries.

Another reason why I started this blog saying that real estate is local,  is because we have a very distinctive market which attracts international and domestic buyers who are looking to purchase either vacation or second homes.

Aventura Real Estate News – Miami: Great time to buy

Another encouraging news from The Miami Herald

I want to share with you the story below.  The results of this study released by Trulia shows Miami as the #1 city in America where it is now more advantageous to buy than to rent.

With rental values strengthening across South Florida, contrasted against the best home values for purchase that we have seen in a decade, more and more of our residents are returning to home ownership.

Miami top big city to buy home now

It makes more sense to buy a home in Miami rather than to rent, according to a new report from Trulia, which ranks Miami as the nation’s top buyer’s market.

BY: TOLUSE OLORUNNIPA

Is there any upside to having a sky-high foreclosure rate, double-digit unemployment and a tight credit market? According to a respected real estate firm, these elements help make Miami the top market in the nation to buy a home rather than to rent.

Miami has moved up two spots since last year to become the nation’s most attractive market to become a homeowner rather than renting, a new report by real estate research firm Trulia found. The study, released Monday, compared home prices and rental rates in the nation’s 50 largest cities to determine where homeownership made the most financial sense.

Potential buyers are starting to take note of South Florida’s shifting buy-vs.-rent dynamic. Arden Shank, director of Neighborhood Housing Services of South Florida, said first-time homebuyers from Broward and Miami-Dade counties are flooding his office.

We have more families coming through the homebuyers preparation process than we have ever had,” he said. A lot of people who were priced out of the market before can now afford to buy a home.”

Trulia came up with the ranking by comparing the cost of buying a median-priced 2-bedroom, 2-bath home with the cost of renting a similar property for a year. Cities were ranked as either “buy” or “rent” based on the ratio of buy-to-rent costs.

For example, the median-priced 2-bedroom in Miami costs $140,201, according to the website. To rent a 2-bedroom apartment for a year would cost $22,459, resulting in a buy-to-rent ratio of 6 (Trulia rounds to the nearest whole number). In other words, renting a home for six years would cost about as much as buying a home free-and-clear. The markets where it makes the least financial sense to buy — places like New York and Seattle — have buy-to-rent ratios as high as 31. Any ratio below 15 was considered a buyer’s market.

The report factors in costs associated with homeownership like interest, insurance, and property taxes. Even with the additional costs, buying a home is more affordable than renting in 72 percent of the nation’s largest cities. The cities where homeownership is a particularly desirable option are places struggling with high unemployment and foreclosures — areas like Phoenix, Jacksonville and Fresno.

Trulia found in the midst of the buyer’s market, renting is becoming more popular and more costly at the same time.

Since the start of the `Great Recession,’ many former homeowners have flooded the rental market. Following the principles of supply and demand, renting has become relatively more expensive than buying in most markets,” said Pete Flint, CEO and co-founder of Trulia, in a statement.
