A year ago, condo buyouts were just beginning to impact the development landscape. Today, economic realities, stricter reserve requirements, aging waterfront inventory, and fewer redevelopment sites have made them a powerful industry force. We examine the dramatically growing trend in this edition of "South Florida by the Numbers"; a Master Brokers Forum partnership with The Real Deal. (Article link below.)

MASTER BROKER LISTING: Master Brokers Forum member Ana Teresa Rodriguez presents Sunset Estates, a once-in-a-generation opportunity to own one of Miami Beach’s most significant architectural waterfront compounds, recently featured in the Wall Street Journal. Located within the exclusive guard-gated Sunset Islands III, steps from Sunset Harbour, this extraordinary waterfront compound spans over 32,000 square feet of prime land with 187 feet of combined water frontage.

Designed by renowned architect Kobi Karp and developed by Todd Michael Glaser, the property was envisioned as a primary waterfront residence complemented by an elegant detached guest residence, creating a one-of-one modern tropical compound. Surrounded by landscaped grounds, an Olympic-length lap pool, spa, and expansive terraces, both homes showcase matching contemporary architecture defined by Brazilian Ipe wood, exposed concrete, soaring 12-foot ceilings, elevated finishes, and seamless indoor-outdoor living. The primary residence features six bedrooms, six bathrooms, private office, powder room, cabana bath, bar, family room, smart home system, elevator, and a gated covered motor court for ten-plus cars. The primary suite includes dual dressing rooms, spa-style bath, and private terrace with outdoor shower. Completed in 2025, the guest residence features two bedrooms, two and one-half bathrooms, full kitchen, waterfront gym, conference lounge, laundry room, and private double-height garage. A trophy waterfront estate delivering a level of scale, architecture, privacy, and lifestyle nearly impossible to replicate within Miami Beach's most coveted enclaves.

1420 West 23rd Street in Miami Beach is currently listed for $110,000,000 by Ana Teresa Rodriguez, who can be reached at 786-723-6041 and/or ana@atrluxuryhomes.com.

🚨Major condo financing changes are coming - and they will impact how deals get done. Here’s a quick breakdown:
•⁠ ⁠Reserve requirements increasing to 15% (or follow a reserve study) — effective 1/4/27
•⁠ ⁠Limited reviews eliminated — most transactions will require a full condo review (starting 8/3/26)
•⁠ ⁠Small projects (10 units or fewer) may qualify for a streamlined or limited review in certain cases
•⁠ ⁠50% investor concentration limit removed for established condominium projects
•⁠ ⁠Florida-specific requirements for new condo projects removed, making it easier for new developments to qualify for conventional financing
Some of these changes open doors. Others create new hurdles.
Either way, condo transactions just became more complex - and more important to understand.
If you run into issues on a deal, there are always options.

TAX SAVINGS: A Californian earning $500,000 could save more than $51,000 per year in state income taxes by moving from Los Angeles or San Francisco to Miami.

PRICE GAP: In February, Miami’s median listing price was $499,999 - less than half of Los Angeles’ median and more than $400,000 below San Francisco’s.

WEALTH EFFECT: Investing that $51,000-plus annual tax savings over 10 years at 7% could grow into more than $750,000 in added wealth.

MIGRATION TREND: From 2022 to 2023, Florida led the nation in adjusted gross income moving in, with $20.65 billion, while California was among the biggest losers.

MIAMI APPEAL: Beyond taxes, waterfront living, newer luxury condos, premium amenities, more space, and faster commutes are key Miami advantages for affluent buyers.
