Apartment Rentals & Sales Miami FL

Remember our Club at Brickell Bay listing last week?  Rented!  ARMiami’s simple tactic of advising our clients on units to purchase and how to best to renovate them combined with fair pricing is how we do it.

ARMiami is so happy to not only have completed the REO purchase of unit #3522 at Club at Brickell Bay but also that the owner has listed the rental with us as well.

This condo is north facing with an excellent view of Brickell & Downtown Miami, there are also partial views of Biscayne Bay and the Miami River as well as a clear view of the new Orange Bowl replacement currently under construction.  The apartment features a full length balcony, brand new flooring, and a stable, local owner.

Available for immediate occupancy at $1,550/mo, click here for the current MLS listing. 

Just closed in the first week of January ARMiami has worked with a buyer to purchase a REO foreclosure one bedroom condo at the Club at Brickell Bay for investment purposes.  The unit is having upgrades & renovations done in preparation for a late January or early February rental listing.  This apartment is roughly 800sq/ft with hard flooring (type to be determined) throughout and a great North facing view of Brickell & Downtown Miami with some interesting views of the Miami River, Marlins Stadium, and Biscayne Bay off the full length balcony.  Additional lighting, closet shelving, and window treatments are all part of readying this unit for a turnkey rental.

Check back soon to see the rental listing & plenty of photos and videos of the condo when it is ready!

I’ve been telling anyone who has asked that the bottom is here, if not already past.  Several properties I work with regularly are seeing both sales AND rental prices inch back up - I think we are headed back up!

Seeing articles like this in the Miami Herald also help bolster confidence in the reading of the real estate climate as well.

If you are on the fence… get OFF IT!  You WILL miss the chance to buy at the bottom if you are still playing the “wait and see” game.

Here is a great New York Times article:

In Miami, Condo Sales Rise as Prices Bottom Out 

about the rise in sales here in South Florida in the Downtown Miami, South Beach, and Brickell areas.  Specifically mentioned is Icon Brickell and its current sales health.

Thanks David B for sending me this article!

Icon Brickell, I’ve mentioned it before - is now my #1 pick in luxury properties, particularly those looking for a potential rental property or vacation home.  Pricing is as low as it is going to get with a high floor one bedroom in the $325,000 and up range sporting views like this:



Sales here are flying - reported to be ~200 units in the last two months since the developer dropped prices 30%.  I was there for 3hrs this Friday and 2hrs this Saturday with clients and the amount of action I saw was amazing.  If you are on the fence… I would get off it.  The building has FHA approval so you don’t have to be an all-cash buyer, mortgages are welcome!  There is also the Icon Brickell Viceroy Condo Hotel which I have not yet viewed which brings a slew of additional amenities to the Icon Brickell Condo project, an article on the Viceroy Hotel is forthcoming.

There was a great article in the Miami Herald today, “New Life in Downtown Miami as Condos Fill Up“, talking about the high levels of occupancy in Downtown Miami and Brickell, the increased foot traffic, jump in number of businesses including restaurants and bars, and the decreasing inventory.

Such a strange condo Icon Brickell, 1800 units in a luxury building with premium hotel and nightclub.  If we were on South Beach it would be a pea in a pod but in business Brickell it’s a bit of an odd, and fun, duck.

Nation’s longest pool!

Love it or hate it, Icon Brickell has style.  Much of the design is Philippe Starck as are other Icon properties like Icon South Beach.

Here is ARMiami’s latest video tour, this is an 00 line at Latitude on the River in Brickell which is a West facing Studio.
