t’s helpful to see the Miami real estate from an objective viewpoint backed up with hard data and not from biased opinion, media gossip, flashy
marketing or third party heresay. This report analyzes all the key neighborhoods, and all types of property purchase: Condos/apartments (both pre-construction and resale), houses and even to a small degree commercial. It gives the unique ability to compare neighborhoods side by side and for the first time to compare anyone pre construction Condo to another regardless of neighborhood. We also make mention of the new ‘Urban Planning’ at play within the city that will directly impact the desirability of each neighborhood. For sellers it is going to be useful because the report will highlight the change of inventory levels and property prices, helping you decide if it may be a good time to sell or stick. For buyers or investors it will help you find the best property that would yield the highest returns for the money and gauge the potential appreciation of that asset. Due to the specific nature of every individual’s investment needs the complexities of any specific real estate purchase or sale go way beyond this report and for that you would need to call or email me directly. The guide will provide some incredibly useful measuring sticks on which to ground many of your decisions. Additionally, please bear in mind that we have literally 100’s of blog reports on all aspects of Miami real estate, all divided by
This report closely cross analyses ALL the new construction Condos in Miami, including, as seen here, all the new projects in Brickell and Downtown.

Metropolitan Miami It has been said that in 2013 Miami became globally recognized as a true metropolitan City, cited by Christie’s as currently one of the 3 hottest cities for real etate investment in the world: along with London and New York. With so much attention focusing on Miami, “The David Siddons Group” a top producing Team with EWM Realtors (The number 1 Brokerage for sales of Luxury Property in Mami) has decided to bring buyers and investors a complete market analysis of ALL the top luxury neighborhoods in Miami.
Why investors are focusing on Miami’s real estate market? The appeal of one of the most beautiful and exciting cities in the world is obvious to most buyers. The quality of life is so high and the cost of living relatively so low compared to other major metropolitan cities like New York and Los Angeles, that explaining the appeal of this fast expanding city is to some totally unnecessary. However, for those who are not so familiar with Miami to fully understand why the wealthiest in the world choose to invest in Miami, we explain a little here.
Population expansion Miami Dade is currently receiving 91 new inhabitants per day. That’s around 34,000 per year. Not only have we seen the population expand but we have seen an accumulation of the global super rich set Miami as a location of primary residences. It’s a case of like seeking out like.

purchase with plans to either build a home for themselves and their families or to immediately sell and make a profit. To build and finish a quality new home one can look to spend around $250 per sq.ft. Given that new homes sell anywhere from $450 - $1,500 per sq.ft., depending on the neighborhood, it becomes obvious to many that building a home enables you to not only get exactly what you want, but to do so at a vastly reduced rate. With this in mind we have run the analysis carefully and present to you the average price per sq.ft. for land sold in the Miami neighborhoods over 2013.

The Coconut Grove Real Estate market in 2013. The Grove market is predominantly a single family market and has become increasingly popular over 2013.

Coral Gables much like Coconut Grove is dominated by single family homes -an ever popular neighborhood for families due to the strong school district. Price per sq.ft. for homes sold in this neighborhood in 2012 was $318 per sq.ft. and rose to $347 per sq.ft. in 2013, with an average sale price of $1,150,388. Waterfront properties sold at an average of $540 per sq.ft. (open water properties sell at a much higher level than canal front properties). Once again, months of inventory for this market sits at the low level of just 6 months supply (A stable market has 9-12 months of inventory) so such inventory supply would indicate that this market will continue to rise through 2014.
This superb 5 bedrooms, 5 baths, 4,200 sq.ft. home on Veronese Ave., in Coral Gables, was sold by the David Siddons Group in Feb. 2013, for $1,400,000 at $333 per sq.ft. Currently 5 bedroom comparable sized homes in the neighborhood are being listing at $400 per sq.ft. or more. Opportunities may exist in the neighborhood, but it is imperative to use an experienced agent who can help you recognize these.

The Brickell Real Estate Market in 2013. Brickell is almost 100% Condo’s and has arguably been one of the most physically changed neighborhoods in Miami over 2013. Brickell, the financial center of Miami’s banking district is now in the midst of a pre-construction boom, with 10 pre-construction projects coming out of the ground, 4 of them will be ready this year: My Brickell, Brickell House, Millicento, and Nine at Mary Brickell Village.
The Brickell Condo Market Average price for properties increased 9% over 2013 to $427 per sq.ft. with an average sale price of $630,000 (This data is taken from the MLS and does not include pre-construction sales). With that said, around 2,800 pre-construction units were sold in the neighborhood over the last 12 months AND the sale of many more this year with most pre-construction due for completion over 2015/2016. Buyers, sellers and investors should be aware that the pre-construction market will be defining this neighborhoods’ success for the foreseeable future, as well as the strength of the rental market which plays a substantial role in the success of Brickell’s market. This 1,633 sq.ft. 51st floor unit at Icon Brickell was sold by the David Siddons Group in October, 2013, at $569 per sq.ft.

The Downtown Condo Market The Downtown neighborhood of Miami has seen substantial growth over 2013. The average price for units sold in this neighborhood increased from $521,171 to $648,340 and increased from $375 to $451 per sq.ft. What was traditionally a lower value neighborhood compared to Brickell
has
been rapidly changing, interestingly the number of properties sold over $1 million dollars increased 350%, giving buyers and sellers a good indication of the changing dynamic of the neighborhood. As an addition to Marquis, 900 Biscayne, Ten Museum and the newest of the existing luxury condos in this area, Paramount Bay comes 1000 Museum Park, designed by Zaha Hadid. Much like Echo in Brickell, it looks to set a new standard for this neighborhood as it sets to compete with the best condos found in other neighborhoods.

Biscayne Condo Market The Edgewater district sits just to the South of the Design district and just to the north of Downtown. It has long been an area of low levels of urban development, but in the last few years it has become a focal point for new residential pre-construction: Open water views, easy access to Miami Beach, a flourishing design district on the doorstep and a level of urban regentrification has all made this the obvious choice for many developers. All the waterfront land in Brickell and most of Downtown has been taken which has driven developers to look to this neighborhood for building of new condominiums, of which there are 6 new projects that will be delivered to the market between 2015 and 2016: Icon Bay, Bay House, Biscayne Beach, Baltus, The Crimson and Paraiso Bay – which will have five independent towers and is developed to become more of a community. Currently 74% of these have now been sold (1,089 of the 1,465 units available). Within the neighborhood, price per sq.ft. for units sold between 2012 to 2013 rose by 23% - the highest increase of any neighborhood in Miami. It is still probably the most affordable of all the condo neighborhoods analyzed at $377 per sq.ft. and an average sale price of $479,320 in 2013. Further analysis shows there were only 13 condos sold over $1 million in 2013 , compared to 111 in Brickell or 204 in Miami Beach.
Biscayne Beach features a full array of amenities including a man made beach club with restaurant. Its 1 of 6 luxury pre-construction condos that are being sold in Edgewater. Unit prices start from $400,000. For a complete rundown of condo units available with side by side comparison in this and all the other projects in the neighborhood, click here.

Miami Beach Condo Market Miami Beach condos sell for an average price of: $763,768. There is obviously a huge variety of condos found within Miami Beach (running from 5th all the way up to 95th and Collins): from those built in the 1970’s right up to brand new ones. To gauge the best investment within a particular building or a particular budget it is best to call me directly or research them through our Blog on ‘Miami Beach Condos’. The most popular of the existing condos in Miami Beach can be fully researched and understood here, these include: The Mei, Bath Club, Caribbean, Mosaic, Blue and Green Diamond, Setai, The W.
1 Hotel and Homes is one of the newest condos to be launched on Miami Beach. With units selling from $1 million to $6 million (from $1,200 - $1,700 per sq.ft.) this new project along with condos like Faena, and The Ritz Carlton are setting a new standard for Miami Beach Condos.
In 2013, and now into 2014, we have seen the launch of many very very high end condos on Miami Beach. With a price for many in excess of $1,500 per sq.ft., we expect to see the dynamic of the beach condo market changed forever. On the beach side: The Edition, Faena House, 1 Hotel and Homes, and Beach House 8. On the bay side pre-construction prices obviously run much less: The Ritz Carlton Residences, 1215 West Ave, and Peloro. Compare the complete list of pre-construction condos here.

The Bal Harbour Real Estate market in 2013. The Bal Harbour neighborhood offers an interesting blend of very high-end new condos and much older condos as well as luxury waterfront living near one of the worlds most exclusive and luxurious shopping malls. The ultra luxurious St Regis Condo experienced a recent number of resales in 2013 which resulted in record breaking sale prices never previously seen in this neighborhood, explaining the huge surge in average property values over 2013.
Bal Harbour Condo Market The 2013 average sale price of a condo in Bal Harbour rose to $1,080,282 at an average sale price of $531 per sq.ft., up 8% from 2012. More interestingly the number of condos sold over $1 million increased from 35 in 2012 to 57 in 2013 - up a staggering 63%, this was largely due to the start of resales at the St Regis Condo where sales prices jumped to over $1,200 per sq.ft. The average time it took to sell these properties also decreased, with time on the market dropping on average 10% from the year before. The inventory levels for condos are currently 15 months supply, a higher inventory level than the rest of Miami, indicating that Bal Harbour is still a buyers market. There is only one new pre-construction project existing in Bal Harbour: Oceana Bal Harbour. This ultra luxury building offers 239 oceanfront 2,3 and 4 bedroom condo units with maid quarters, as well as 4 penthouses and 3 duplex upper penthouses. Prices start from $1.7 million.
Bal Harbour Single Family Market The 2013 average sale price of a home in Bal Harbour rose to $1,465,947 at an average of $398 per sq.ft., up 39% from 2012. The time it took to sell these properties also decreased, with time on the market dropping on average 6% from the year before. The inventory levels for homes in Bal Harbour is just 5 months. Such a shortage of inventory suggests a very strong investment market. 21

Aventura Homes
Aventura is well known for its shopping. The Aventura mall is ranked as the second most visited mall in the US with 28 million visitors a year. A close proximity to Sunny Isles Beach, it has a mixture of old and new condos. Established projects such as Turnberry on the Green mix with newer projects like Penninsula 2, and these will soon be accompanied by several other new projects: Echo Aventura, Marina Palms and Prive. These are selling between $500 and $775 per sq.ft.
Aventura Condo Market The neighborhood has a number of older condos and projects are commonly sold to those looking for a second or third home and is well suited to those looking for a very affordable condo close to the beach – the average price for condos is still just $290 per sq.ft. (while certainly there are a number of newer condos where prices can easily exceed $500 per sq.ft.). Interestingly, the number of million dollar condos sold in 2013 compared to 2012 rose by 78% which certainly suggests a changing demographic. Inventory importantly sits at a level of 11 months for home and 10 months for condos. This would suggest a stable market, neither aggressively a sellers or a buyers market. Smart buyers here would be best advised to seek out the anomalies and to not assume any huge sudden rises in property value, but nor sudden drops either. Commercially speaking, we also have 40,000 sq.ft. of new commercial construction in progress, which represents just a 2% increase in the current 2,160,000 sq.ft. of commercial space that currently exists.

The Key Biscayne real estate market has performed very well over 2013. As we look into 2014 we notice that the real estate landscape of Key Biscayne is changing very little (in comparison to other neighborhoods). This 12 mile long island is considered one of the most exclusive areas in Miami and one of the highest incomes per capita neighborhood in the United States. What makes it even more unique is the lack of land availability and the limitations put on construction on the island due the preservation of the park areas. This has meant that the supply curve shifts very little, sheltering this neighborhood from any over abundance of construction.
Single Family Market The Key Biscayne house market sells at $748 per sq.ft. for non waterfront property and $1,688 for waterfront property. The value for single family rose a staggering 32% for waterfront homes from 2012 to 2013 and 21% for non waterfront and with a stable 11 months supply of inventory we expect this market to continue to rise through 2014.
260 Cape Florida Drive Waterfront property with 9 bedrooms, 8.5 baths, 18,091 sq.ft. is listed for $18,900,000.
