Recent developments in Florida's real estate market, from legislative updates to high-end sales
What Happened
Florida's real estate industry has been abuzz with activity, from the state legislature's recent session to high-end sales and development projects. In Tallahassee, lawmakers closed their session, approving a fraction of the real estate proposals put forth. One notable approval was a land use legislation that allows billionaire Jeffrey Soffer's Fontainebleau Miami Beach resort to bypass approval by the Miami Beach Historic Preservation Board for pool deck upgrades.
Luxury Sales
In Miami-Dade County, homebuilder Pedro Adrian secured a buyer for his $47 million Palm Island estate, topping new sales activity in the area. The 24 properties sold between March 9 and March 15 spent an average of 238 days on the market, according to the Eklund-Gomes signed contracts report. Meanwhile, Lil Wayne's former Allison Island home sold for $33.3 million, marking the second-most expensive home ever sold on the island.
Development Projects
Residential brokerage powerhouse Jills Zeder Group leased 8,000 square feet at Robert Rivani's South Beach office building, The Rivani. Other tenants include hedge fund Divisadero Capital, stem cell and regenerative medicine practice Prime Longevity, oculoplastic surgeon Dr. Jennifer Murdock, and functional medicine Dr. Elliott Dinetz. The leases come as soccer fever fuels retail activity in the area.
