If you’ve been watching Miami's condo market from the sidelines and wondering when to make your move, watch this video first. Sep Niakan, top Miami luxury real estate broker and founder of Blackbook Properties, sits down with Blackbook Properties agent and Miami Realtors’ 20 Under 40 awardee, Evan Schechtman, for an honest take on Miami’s luxury condo market.

Together, they unpack what every smart buyer and investor should know, along with the latest real estate trends and opportunities. Stay tuned to find out what kind of condos are worth the investment in Miami and how recent shifts in interest rates, foreign currency value, association fees, and new tax rules impact and benefit investors like you — and what’s their outlook for the market in 2026.

Schechtman offers a true insider’s view, from which neighborhoods are seeing heightened interest to the asset classes gaining momentum. He also spills the tea on how today’s buyers and investors are benefiting in practical ways, touching on Florida’s milestone inspections and the Structural Integrity Reserve Study (SIRS)—two items every condo buyer should understand.

He also opens up about his personal experience as both a luxury condo owner and an Airbnb investor in Miami, sharing lessons learned, his preference for Miami short-term rentals, his affinity for Brickell real estate, and how he can help you navigate your condo investment journey with the same confidence.
