Palm Beach continues to be one of the most prestigious addresses in South Florida. What was once a vacation destination is now a place where people wish to live year-round. The luxury homes, trendy restaurants, exciting shopping, and revitalized downtown area make this an unparalleled place to live.
Not withstanding any credit to the exclusivity Palm Beach has to offer, but an investment purchase in Key Biscayne is also a sound investment. Key Biscayne is a unique market for that of an affluent buyer. It is a small family community surrounded by sandy beaches, with a crime rate below one percent, local and brand name stores and shops, and banking and exquisite dining within walking distance. Key Biscayne is conveniently situated outside of the Brickell and surrounding downtown areas and is a 20-minute drive to South Beach.
Miami and surrounding areas are undergoing a major shift, and not just in price. Miami is getting a facelift alongside housing and economy. In the Downtown area, Brickell City Centre has finally opened its door to consumers and has brought in a surplus of career options throughout the area. The more commercial space the city develops, the more attractive it becomes for corporations to surround the area and ultimately turn around the working economy that can sustain our prices. Brickell is regarded as the place where people want to live, work, and play year-round in Miami.
I believe the exceptional waterfront communities of Palm Beach, Key Biscayne, and Downtown Brickell, are what continue to attract new residents to South Florida and provide the diversity that makes us unique. They are each exceptional in their own way and the prices will continue touphold their value. Because of this, South Florida is no longer considered just a retirement community, but is a desired destination for all.
