Coral Gables just broke ground on its first wellness-certified luxury condo.

Cora Merrick Park: 74 residences by Arquitectonica, from the $900,000s, pursuing WELL Building certification for air, light, acoustics, and materials, plus the first rooftop padel court in the Gables.

Every developer says wellness. This one is being graded on it.

Wellness as a verified spec, not a marketing line. Full breakdown in the reel.

For years, the biggest headache in buying Florida real estate wasn’t the mortgage. It was the insurance bill.

That’s finally turning. Citizens — the state’s insurer of last resort — just cut Miami-Dade rates 14% on average, touching over 42,000 local policies. Security First lowered rates again this month and rolled out a disappearing deductible. Florida Peninsula, Universal, and other private carriers are cutting too, some by double digits.

None of this is luck. It’s the litigation reforms Florida passed two years ago finally showing up in the premiums — fewer lawsuits, lower costs, for everyone.

✍️ If insurance sticker shock kept you on the sidelines, the math just got meaningfully better.

📈 Final Q2 stats are just surfacing and Miami’s office market just closed out its strongest first half in years.

This spring, Brevan Howard, a multi-billion-dollar European hedge fund, signed for space in Coconut Grove. Around the same time, Amcor moved its U.S. headquarters downtown and a D.C. housing consultancy followed. By the end of Q2, leasing was up 45% year over year, availability had dropped under 15%, and Miami’s asking rents were the highest of any major U.S. office market, ahead of New York.

For years the story was billionaires buying waterfront homes. This year it’s more — their funds, their manufacturers, and their law firms signing ten-year leases. The migration stopped being about who moved here. It’s about who’s building here, and a great indication of future growth in South FL.

The biggest Miami real estate news of the week: after three years empty, fenced off, and dark, the most famous empty building in Edgewater is finally coming down.

Two Roads paid ~$150M for the building / parcel in 2022, then spent three years fighting 10 holdout owners who sued over a rewritten termination vote and won, forcing the developer to turn the power back on.

On Monday of this week, they finally reached a settlement, reportedly around a $50M payout to the remaining owners.

Demolition could now start within weeks. And replacing it: The Edition Residences. 55 stories, 185 units, 800 feet on the Bay, and a Formula 1 simulator Charles Leclerc has been waiting on since 2024.

This is what it costs to control the best bayfront site in Miami. You pay to play.

Miami just voted unanimously to explore suing the state over the law meant to fix its housing crisis.

The Live Local Act lets developers skip zoning review and build to the height of the tallest building within a mile — no public hearing — as long as part of the project is workforce housing. 82 projects here are already permitted under it.

Trading zoning control for density only pencils out if those units actually get built and stay affordable.

✍️ Follow along - I’m tracking whether they actually deliver.

✅ Miami-Dade just posted its best June in three years — $2.4B in total volume, up 36%.

But single-family and condos are moving in opposite directions. Houses: prices up ~4%, five months of supply. Condos: prices down 3%, with more than twelve months of inventory sitting.

Same county, same headline, two completely different negotiations.

If you’re selling a house, you have pricing power right now. If you’re buying a condo, you have room to negotiate that didn’t exist two years ago.

I keep a pulse on every facet of the market so you don’t have to. Follow along for what’s really going on in the Miami market.

PMG’s first tower on this site sold out. So they built a second one.

One Twenty Brickell Signature: 40 stories, 467 fully furnished residences — each paired with its own individually deeded private office suite. Not an amenity. A second asset that comes with the unit.

It’s the first offering of its kind in Miami — nobody else deeds an office suite directly to a condo owner. PMG tested the idea, watched it sell out, and is already building it a third time in Wynwood.

✅ The first sell-out made it clear: In a market where demand for quality office space is through the roof, remote work is extremely popular, and traditional office rents are at an all-time high, this unique asset positioning has real demand.

The weather was beautiful, so I decided to take the bike out to go and preview this incredible home on the Venetian Islands for a very special client of mine.

First thing you see when you walk in — a tropical pond running underneath the home. I’ve been in a lot of houses. I’ve never seen that.

Kitchen is class-A, top to bottom. And the living area opens straight to a salt water pool and waterfront deck and private dock. I should mention, no fixed bridges to the bay or ocean. You pull out of here and you’re in open water.

The home boasts 5 bedrooms, and eight baths in total, spanning over 5200 SF with a master suite and wrap around balcony you never want to leave.

Listed just under $20M, this one is special, and I was able to get my client in for an early look before it hit the market.

✍️ Off-market access in this market is everything.

Miami just ranked second in the country for pending home sales growth. Pending — not closed. That’s contracts being written right now.

The pipeline is filling faster than it’s emptying.

✍️ This is the number serious buyers are watching.

✅ Nobu just put its name on a 75-story tower in Brickell — and it’s unlike anything Miami has seen.

296 residences designed by Foster + Partners, priced from $3M to $60M. Private residents-only restaurant, in-residence dining, private chefs, and a full biohacking wellness program across 90,000 square feet of amenities. Nobu, Four Seasons, Aman — the world’s most recognized luxury hospitality brands keep choosing Miami for their flagship residential projects.

That’s not coincidence. That’s capital following conviction.

✍️ This is what it looks like when a city earns a global brand’s biggest bet.
