May 04, 2021 May 04, 2021

The sudden surge in buyer interest in Miami’s luxury condo market that started in 2020 continued into April. With businesses and wealthy buyers continuing to pour in from the Midwest, Northeast, and California, developers are lining up new luxury condo development projects. From Dezer Development to Dacra, condo developers of all sizes are betting on Miami’s future growth, and the incoming wave of wealthy buyers taking advantage of South Florida’s lucrative tax benefits.

Recent Miami pre-construction condo news included Gil Dezer back with a major luxury car-branded condo project for Sunny Isles, Bentley Residences. Dacra is one step closer to realizing its architecturally significant flagship in the Design District. The Shoma Group has a 19-story project approved for North Bay Village. Turnberry Ocean Club is welcoming residents ready to move in. Two new developments have been proposed for Aventura plus Edgewater. And, the developers of Downtown’s E11even Hotel and Residences are planning on adding another tower to their kitty, as the first stands 90% sold within just a few months of launching sales.

The Big Differences in Cost of Living in Miami vs. New York
Lifestyle The Big Differences in Cost of Living in Miami vs. New York
Over the last few years, Miami has seen its population grow, driven in part by those leaving other major U.S. cities, including New York and the Northeast. Many of our clients are New Yorkers looking for other living options in the Magic City. But one question we are asked a lot is “What is the difference in the cost of living between Miami and New York?”  So, we are here to offer you an insightful answer to that question. Not a fluffy one, but a data-backed analysis of the costs of living between these two massively popular cities. New York has traditionally been considered an expensive city, and just last year was proclaimed as the most expensive city in the US, and 7th most expensive in the world. On the other hand, Miami only saw its cost of living rise in recent years as the city matures and new residents and out-of-town investments are making it the hot locale it is today. But can we go as far as to say Miami is more expensive than New York? Let’s dive in.  To take a...
