South Beach Real Estate

South Beach, the well-known, exciting and rapidly growing community of Miami Beach in Florida, has been called the Art Deco Playground of the country. South Beach is also known as America 's Riviera. Small wonder— South Beach is almost an island, with the Atlantic Ocean on one side and the broad Miami River on the other. The beaches are incredible and seem to go on forever. It's the perfect place to relax and to play.

South Beach's reputation as a vacation spot began in the 1930s when hotel developers adopted the then popular Art Deco style as they created destination resorts. Back then, most people arrived by train.

The area, named South Beach to distinguish it from Miami, became known for glitz, glamour and fun – the place to get away from it all. Charming retail establishments and homes, often in the same Art Deco style grew up around the hotels and the beaches.

In the 1980s and 1990s the fashion and entertainment industry began to flock to South Beach, both to take advantage of endless white beaches, which were relatively uncrowded and to enjoy the absolutely fabulous weather. The influx of Cubans added spice to the area. Ease of access from New York by air and the charm of the many art deco homes, hotels and retail businesses combined to form an attraction that hasn't stopped yet.

Today, South Beach real estate is exploding! In many ways, it's the heart beat of Miami. Physically tied to Miami with four causeway bridges, South Beach feels different because it is. Incredible condominium developments like the Icon, Apogee and others rub shoulders with quaint Art Deco hotels like the Clay and the National Hotel, creating an ambience of hip excitement.

Called SOBE by insiders and locals, South Beach provides incredible real estate investment potential. Condominiums also known by some as lofts offer luxurious living right on the water. As investments, they are unsurpassed because people want to live in South Beach .

SOBE also offers an amazing selection of real estate opportunities, from single family homes through retail establishments and land with development possibilities.

Chief among the real estate investment prospects are the preconstruction condominiums. These are condo developments, already planned and approved. In most cases, construction financing is in place. In other words, the project is ready to build.

When you purchase a South Beach condo in the preconstruction phase, you get to take advantage of the developer's preconstruction price. The preconstruction price is almost always lower because the developer is testing the market. Prices have been known to increase by thousands in a few hours.
