South Beach Condos Blog

Continuum II started closings last Monday. It seems like this tower has been under construction for forever and a day. Continuum II will be the last of the great luxury high-rises in South Beach.

Ok off the heels of last week’s wildy successful “Great Deals” post, I decided to make it a regular here at the SBCB.  Some of these condos may or may not be in foreclosure or bank-owned.  I truly believe that the best deals are out there, it’s just that they are being overlooked because many people’s eyes light up when they hear foreclosure or short-sale.  Word to the wise:
short-sales and foreclosures are not always the best buys.  Don’t tell me I didn’t warn you!

Blue Diamond:

4775 Collins Avenue #3106.  Best buy for a 1/2 + den on a high floor.  Bank-owned.  Have at it!

Finally, the wait is over.   Apogee South Beach, destined to become Miami’s most prestigious condominium, is here.  Closings began a few weeks ago and sources say that approximately 40 percent of the units are closed.

I’ve been looking forward for Apogee to be completed.  I recently toured the building with my clients and their design and architectural team.  During our conversation, a comparison was made between Apogee and a Park Avenue-type building.  The designer quickly responded “Park Avenue should be this nice.”

I’m a very connected guy. I don’t mean connected in a way where I know people (well, I do know people); but I like to keep my ear to the ground. I noticed that a lot of new listings were coming on the market at the Bath Club in Miami Beach, so I decided to run some numbers and see what was going on there.

In the last 30 days, 11 listings came on the market. That may not sound alarming but with only 112 units in the development, it certainly caught my attention. As of today, there are 36 units on the market, which represents 32% of the condominium. A balanced real estate market dictates that about 10% of the condominium’s units could be available for sale at any given time.

Next, I did some numbers of actual sales activity in the Bath Club:
