38 Canadian Real Estate Professionals Tour Miami Pre-construction Projects With Michael Light Posted on November 13, 2015November 13, 2015 by Michael Light Last week, I hosted a group of 38 members from Toronto, Canada’s Building Industry and Land Development Association (“BILD”) for exclusive presentations of Miami’s top pre-construction condo developments. The study tour for the BILD group was primarily to learn how Miami developers are attracting luxury buyers to our Miami market AND many of the individuals on the tour were interested in purchasing pre-construction condos for their own investment purposes. One of the members of BILD is an avid reader of this very blog and thought I would be the perfect broker to work with because of my knowledge of the Miami condo market. About nine months ago, I was approached by BILD to assist them with touring multiple, highly-sought-after pre-construction condo developments in Greater Downtown Miami, including Brickell and Edgewater along with Sunny Isles Beach. I spent the better part of a month putting together the logistics of the tour which took place on Wednesday and Friday last week. On Wednesday, I started the tour with a presentation and breakfast at the Delano Hotel where I presented a snapshot of the Miami condo market, average pricing by neighborhood and an overview of the vast number of new projects either currently under construction or in the planning stages. We went on to receive presentations of Elysee, Gran Paraiso and Aria on the Bay in Edgewater and One Thousand Museum and Paramount Miami Worldcenter in Downtown Miami. On Friday, we began our day by visiting Brickell Flatiron, who hosted a breakfast for the group, and then went on a walking tour through Brickell as I pointed out and described each individual building under construction and existing, on our way to visit Brickell City Centre’s Reach and Rise Towers followed by a visit to Sunny Isles Beach for an amazing presentation of Porsche Design Tower to end the day and the tour. The overall tour was a great success! I made great connections with many developers, brokers looking to refer their clients in the Miami area and others that were interested in individually purchasing investment properties in Miami.

Brickell Flatiron…Another Ugo Colombo Masterpiece! Posted on June 30, 2014August 19, 2015 by Michael Light Brickell Flatiron | 1001 South Miami Avenue, Miami, Florida 33131 Another Ugo Colombo masterpiece in the works, Brickell Flatiron will feature luxurious condos, over-the-top amenities and panoramic views of the Miami skyline and Biscayne Bay. Brickell Flatiron condos will be located in the heart of Brickell, situated on a triangular lot at 1001 South Miami Avenue. The Flatiron name, most notoriously associated with the legendary Flatiron building in Manhattan, comes from the triangular shape’s resemblance to the old-fashioned clothing flatirons that were heated on stoves. Although the name is quite nostalgic, Brickell Flatiron will be quite contemporary. Brickell Flatiron is already one of the hottest pre-construction condo buildings in Brickell, mainly because of its location directly in front of Mary Brickell Village, which features ultra-chic restaurants and shopping. Not to mention, Brickell Flatiron will be just a few blocks from the highly-anticipated Brickell City Centre.
