Florida,
and particularly Miami, has always been a hub of international real estate
investment. Last year, Brazilians and Canadians were driving demand for
property, followed closely by Spain. Now, though, French investors are flocking
to Florida, attracted by the USA’s high affordability, especially in the wake of
tax hikes in their own countries. All these factors have contributed to the
great demand and popularity that our local real estate market enjoys.
Miami
market remains trending up according to the last report of the Miami
Association of Realtors. The Miami-Dade County real estate market appears to
still be going strong.
Single-family home sales surged 18.5 percent in May
2013 compared to May 2012, according to the Miami Association of Realtors.
The
association also bragged that condominium sales increased 3.9
percent.
"Miami continues to attract worldwide attention, as foreign and
domestic buyers flock to our exciting city," said Natascha Tello from the
Miami Association of Realtors.
"The local lifestyle, global business
environment, and strategic location between Latin America and Europe are
driving population growth that is fueling strong demand for property sales and
rentals.."
The association also reported the average sales price for
single-family homes in Miami-Dade County in May increased 10.8 percent to
$408,021,
The average sales price for condos increased 20.5 percent to
$370,843. * Source: Miami.re and Local 10 News SF.
