Summer Tourism in Miami on the Rise

Once considered a ghost town during the summer months, tourists are now flocking to beautiful South Florida. The sunny weather and breathtaking beaches of Miami are no longer attracting people exclusively during the winter and spring months of the year. Discounted hotel rates may be the cause of the steady increase over the past several years.

According to preliminary data released by Visit Florida, over 21 million people came to the sunshine state in the early parts of the summer. This is an increase of nearly 7% from last year. The number of overseas visitors is also on the rise, increasing more than 17 percent, and Canadians have also had an impressive increase of 18 percent. The majority of our visitors still comes domestically, which increased by more than 5%. For more information, please click here.

Many agree that Miami Beach is going through a renaissance. Miami Beach Real Estate is on the mend, and increased tourism is giving our city exposure and attention to prospective buyers from all over the world. We are OPEN 24/7, 365 days a year!

Miami Home Sales Soar!

Miami-Dade County is leading the nation in home sales with a whopping 12.5% increase since January 2011. Thus making Miami-Dade County the fastest rebounding housing market this year. This all from a study conducted by real estate research firm, CoreLogic. Distressed sales were not included in this study.

Exciting news for home sellers wishing to put their homes on the market this year. The current available inventory in Miami-Dade and Broward counties are around 30,000 properties. This is a sharp decline from the 45,000 available a year ago. The inventory is shrinking quickly, and prices will start to gradaully increase, making it an optimal time to sell your property.

The constant flow of foreign buyers is still strong, and the number of countless cash buyers coming to the table is increasing. Pending home sales are up from last year, and the available inventory even in rental properties in decreasing. A fabulous opportunity for landlords and sellers alike.
