According to Bloomberg.com “Brazilians Buy Miami Condos at Bargain Prices. Frederico Azevedo went to Florida looking for a second home. He left with three, paying $300,000 and $500,000 for condos in two Miami towers, and $1 million for a unit at the Trump International resort in nearby Sunny Isles.” The Trump International or Miami Trump Towers in Sunny Isles Beach are the fastest selling condos at bargain price. “I bought one to use as a vacation home and the other two as investments,” Azevedo, 39, president of Construtora Altana Ltda, a housing-development company, said in a telephone interview from his office in Sao Paulo. “It’s actually very cheap in Miami compared to here.” Investors are once again are here and looking for deals and bargains all over the city, which became a real three hundred and sixty five days a year kind of  vacation destination, no one even remembers, that it once was a snow birds only place from October to March. The families with kids, honeymooners, students on the spring break, they all hear all year long.  Now the Brazilians discovered the paradise of the sun, water, Miami Luxury Condos Market at bargain prices. “Surging real estate prices in Brazil and the currency’s 45 percent gain against the U.S. dollar since 2008 are sending Brazilians to South Florida in search of bargain vacation homes and property investments. That’s helping bolster Miami’s condo market, with total sales increasing 79 percent in the first five months of 2011 from a year earlier, according to data from the Florida Association of Realtors released today.” Miami’s condo market is on the rise.  “In the Miami area, Brazilians bought 9 percent of homes and apartments sold to international buyers in the 12 months through March 2010, behind only Canadians and Venezuelans, according to the Miami Association of Realtors. Since then, “anecdotal evidence certainly points to a significant increase,” said Lynda Fernandez, a spokeswoman for the group. In May, international clients bought about 60 percent of existing houses and condos and 90 percent of newly built homes, the association reported today. As many as half of the downtown Miami condos that have been sold to foreigners for more than $500,000 since January were purchased by Brazilians” Downtown Miami Condos is one of the favorites among the investors and buyer from Brazil and South America. “The fastest economic growth in two decades last year and accelerating inflation made Sao Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and Brasilia more expensive than any U.S. city, according to a survey by ECA International, a London-based human-resources company.”

Bal Harbour: More than a Miami luxury shopping mall

Thursday, September 30th, 2010

Bal Harbour is synonymous with luxury shopping, boasting brands like Cartier, Louis Vuitton and Prada at the family-owned Bal Harbour Shops, which opened in 1965.

That association is hardly a bad thing, but the tiny village north of Miami Beach wants to stand for more than just a high-fashion mall. Tourism director Carolyn Travis, who has a $1.8 million budget funded by resort taxes to promote the destination, is seeking to add more substance to the area’s style.

“People want experiences,” she said.  “Our goal was to be able to build more of that within our community.” Since the beginning of 2010, the village has added a children’s camp run by the Miami Children’s Museum at the Sea View Hotel to reach family travelers. It also introduced free yoga and Pilates classes on the beach for locals and hotel guests.

In October, Bal Harbour is starting a culture series that will include movies on the sand once a month, outdoor music performances every month and art nights at the shops, featuring the brands’ own art collections and exhibitions from local galleries and museums like North Miami’s Museum of Contemporary Arts.

The Bal Harbour village has contracted with sales and public relations staff in New York, Latin America and Europe; promotes itself at high-end travel trade shows and advertises in magazines like Travel + Leisure, Condé Nast Traveler and Departures.

A new St. Regis Bal Harbour on the beach is scheduled to open in June of 2012, will be the most privileged condo and condo/hotel in Bal Harbour Real Estate, bringing the number of hotels to three with just under 1,000 rooms. The former Regent Bal Harbour opened as One Bal Harbour in 2009, joining the 1950′s-era Sea View Hotel.

One Bal Harbor is perfectly designed 26-story luxury oceanfront condo, which was built in Bal Harbour in years, and One Bal Harbour Resort and Spa is a five star luxury boutique hotel with room service, concierge assistance and valet parking. There is also the fine waterfront dining and a world-class spa located within the hotel. One Bal Harbour considered to be one of the most elite projects in South Florida Real Estate.

One Bal Harbour Resort and Spa general manager Florent Gateau said he sees visitors, especially large family groups, from the Northeast, Europe and South America. Their main draw is the shops, he said, and the surrounding hot spots like South Beach. He said the guests are still coming back to the hotel with shopping bags — but they’re not going crazy.

“The spending pattern is still there, but people are being more cautious,” he said. They want to use their money for “something of real significance.”

Travis said the village wants people to stay in the hotels — but is also happy to have visitors who are staying elsewhere. This summer, shuttle service started on Collins Avenue as far south as Lincoln Road in South Beach, well-known for Art Deco elegance, boutique hotels, night clubs, shopping and luxury waterfront South Beach Real Estate, specifically in exclusive SoFi (South of Fifth) area.

The Bal Harbor village doesn’t shy away from placing itself in the larger context of South Florida, even if it means dropping some names. On Bal Harbour’s website, the greeting says: “Miami Beach to the south of us, city of Sunny Isles Beach (famous for most exclusive Sunny Isles Real Estate with luxury oceanfront condos like Trump Towers Miami, Jade Beach and Jade Ocean and beautiful beaches, bound by the Atlantic Ocean on the east and the Intracoastal Waterway) to the north, not a single destination above us.”  You can read original article by Hanna Sampson at Miami Herald: http://www.miamiherald.com/2010/08/22/1785467/bal-harbour-more-than-a-luxury.html#ixzz0xRfEBC65.
