May ‘25 - Too Much Junk, Not Enough Gems: What Miami Buyers Really Need Right Now

Hello Friends! I'm thrilled to share the pick up in activity for this summer season. With an increase in inventory, I've personally had some difficulty locating the "best match" properties for my clients. Because let's face it, there are a lot of "junk" properties out there. As I manually go through each listing and qualify them, outside of the generic click throughs and fill in the criteria search bar, it's even more crucial now to work with a Buyer's Agent. As a dedicated full time agent, I value my client's time and understand that they've entrusted in me to be the local expert. Getting lost through the endless search of Zillow can leave you in a never ending scrolling night, where you've started from a simple search of a single family home in Miami Beach and leave you stranded in a cul-de-sac somewhere in New Mexico with a cattle ranch. Let me do the heavy lifting while you get an amazing good night's rest. For my homeowners that are looking to sell, pricing right is more crucial than ever. With homes closing at 91% to list price as the example shown below, the stats don't show you however over 60% of these homes have made a price adjustment, furthering this number down to a lower percentage to the closed sale. So with that in mind, price competitively and let's get your property sold. Schedule a call with me if you've been thinking about selling or buying, I'd love to help you navigate through this market with you. - Thanks for Linking Up - Lily

🔦 Hospitality Highlight 🔦

Located in the super posh and elegant Surf Club Hotel & Residences, this restaurant is accompanied with a live pianist, setting the mood just right for their guests. With fresh ingredients and detail oriented preparation, each dish was memorable - even the butter. Originally aimed to dine at the Champagne Bar to try their famous burgers, we were redirected due to a private event at the property. An alternative solution, but definitely didn't disappoint!
