Something new is coming to the Sunny Isles Beach market. Soon, developers plan to begin construction of a new pre construction condos in Sunny Isles Beach. There are 1,200 total proposed new units which include Unique, Porsche Tower, Jade Signature, Regalia, Chateau Beach and Mansions of Acqualina. The pre-construction condos in Sunny Isles Beach comes on the heels of an upswing in the market that seems to be moving away from the market crash that began in 2007.

These new condo projects come from a variety of local investors as well as international professionals. There are 10 different towers in separate proposals. These new buildings will house more than 350 floors of units and they will all be available as beachfront property, either facing the Atlantic or the Intracoastal Waterway. This information has been compiled by the February 2013 preconstruction condo projects list.

Proposals in All of South Florida

Because of the real estate upswing, there are numerous proposals throughout the south Florida area. In fact, there are over 100 total towers proposed throughout areas such as Broward County, Palm Beach, and Miami-Dade. This would add close to 15,000 new condo units to the area.

Developments in the Past

The Sunny Isles Beach area has seen a great deal of growth since 2003. In the past years, 26 different projects have been completed, and they added in a total of 6,350 new units available. The Sunny Isles Beach area has become very popular for new real estate, and before the real estate market crash, a total of 60 different condo projects were completed in the same area.

Selling Out Quickly

Because the new real estate boom has begun selling out condos in the area, new developments have been proposed to offer more real estate. The condos in the proposals will cover a vast range of prices and amenities to suit a wide variety of needs. In fact, as of now, there are only about 2,000 condos available in the Sunny Isles area. International investors continue to back these projects, and this quick sellout has led to the new proposals. Most of the new proposals include plans to complete condo buildings by 2014.

Transactions in Progress

Most of the new condos will go up and be available at various times. The properties are in various stages of transactions, and a transaction does have to be completed before the construction can begin. Some of the new projects could start within the next few months while others won’t actually begin until early 2014.

This is all good news for the Sunny Isles Beach condo market. Anyone who wishes to move to the area will have a variety of choices in the coming months, allowing them to pick the right combination of amenities and prices on beachfront properties. With the recent upswing in the South Florida real estate market, these proposals are expected to be successful in providing a new boom in the area.

Getting In On The Preconstruction Condo

Purchasing a preconstruction condominium requires the assistance of a skilled realtor who can guide you through the process and make certain that you get in on the property that you want. The process starts by sending a letter of intent with an initial deposit, which should be between $10,000 and $15,000. In some cases, a 20 percent deposit may be required with a contract.

At the groundbreaking, an additional 20 percent will be required and the remaining 10 percent will be required before the condominium is completed, making a 50 percent total down payment on the property. The remaining 50 percent of the total cost of the condominium will be due upon closing.

Remember that you are offered a 15-day grace period during which you may decide to cancel your condominium contract for any reason you see fit. Most condominium units purchased in this fashion will require that you install your own flooring and other design elements. If you are interested in purchasing a condominium before it is constructed, talk to a realtor and they will be able to answer any questions you might have.

The Sunny Isles Beach

site that featured oceanfront property has recently been purchased by Edgardo De Fortuna – owner and founder of Fortune International. The site will be used to build a new luxury Sunny Isles oceanfront condo, but the company that deal with the foreclosure of the Paramount Bay Condo has now acquired the 2.2-acre site. The stunning lot located in Boca Raton was won after the loan was sold to Sunny Isles Property Holdings. Carlos Mattos of the Hyundai Colombia Automotriz seized the property and then sold it to the affiliate for $22 million.

Sunny Isles Beach real estate

is associated with luxury ocean front developments, several of which were built by Fortune International. However, this marks a significant real estate purchase for the company. Acquiring this 2.2-acre oceanfront property is a significant shift in the real estate landscape in the area. While it is not known exactly how the property will be used, there are many excellent options that Fortune International can use to leverage the property.

The speculation surrounding the multi-million dollar purchase of property by Fortune International has sparked conversation about whether the housing market is in recovery. Since many figures have pointed to an improving housing market, it is no surprise that a property this desirable has changed hands. Led by Edgardo De Fortuna, Fortune International has been responsible for creating condominiums on Jade Beach and the Jade Ocean Condos. If they continue down the same path, they may decide to build luxury condominiums on the gorgeous piece of property.

With business markets rebounding significantly and housing markets right behind them, optimism and confidence seem to be the pervasive emotions surrounding the state of the economy. While economists state that there is still far to go until Americans experience a full, complete recovery, the improvement in housing market statistics, business sales, the unemployment rate, and job creation is very promising.

With the acquisition of this property, Fortune International will be able to begin building on the stunning Sunny Isles condo to create luxurious oceanfront condominiums or any number of other commercial properties. With the housing market in recovery, Edgardo De Fortuna has taken advantage of the low housing and interest rates and purchased a wonderful oceanfront property in Sunny Isles.

There are many consumers not yet convinced that things are “turning around” in the preconstruction market in the Sunny Isles and Miami Beach area. That perspective is fairly easy to understand if you see that people are basing such an opinion on the older headlines and business news, but if you look a bit closer at what is actually happening in the market…well, you’d change your mind about the issue.

For instance, if you were to check out the newest project from developer Gil Dezer you would see a huge amount of interest and activity, and none of it could be described as a reflection of the so-called “modern market”. That is because Dezer is currently working on the newest luxury oceanfront pre-construction project Porsche Tower in Sunny Isles Beach, and though it is not going to be ready for residents until 2016, more than 15 of the $3.9 million-plus homes have already been reserved.

While the $1,000 per square foot price tag on these homes may not be feasible for all interested buyers, there is much more to find in the Miami and Sunny Isles condo market. For example, the Related Group (which is most often associated with massive condominium structures scattered throughout Miami and its environs) is currently working on the MyBrickell facility in the heart of city, usually called the downtown region. This is a neighborhood that was once believed to be a “no go” in terms of residential properties but which has become a dynamic market with the many “bargain shoppers” of the world.

Thus, the $350 per square foot price tag on the 192 units has led to a near “sell out” of the entire structure long before the project has even broken ground. As of early 2012, it had reservations for 90 percent of the homes in the building.
Is Marketing to Blame?

Many might point to these diverse projects and say that it is probably marketing that is leading to so much interest, but the simple fact of the matter is that many of the top selling projects have almost zero marketing, and few even have viable websites or established sales offices.

What is behind the success? If you explore many of the top selling preconstruction projects it would quickly become clear that measured sales are the real engine behind the incredible numbers. Rather than building in the thousands, most of the projects are doing pre-sales on extremely limited numbers of homes.

When this is partnered with the fact that many international buyers are exploring their chances for a Miami property at a relatively bargain-basement price (when compared to the booming years prior to 2008), you get a wonderful result. For example, Canadian buyers who had long avoided the $500 per square foot price tags on the smallest and least opulent units are now able to dedicate less than $400 per square foot for a much more upscale home. Sellers are not boosting prices in response to these sales, however, and that is what is keeping the market viable and vibrant.

We should also offer a bit of additional detail about the strength of this proof that the preconstruction market is more than just back on track. For instance, the luxury homes offered by Gil Dezer come with a mandatory $100k escrow deposit just to take a meeting with the builders! Twenty-seven interested parties have put down the cash to sit down and discuss the options, and as already mentioned, fifteen of the meetings have resulted in fifteen committed buyers.

Additionally, these buyers are asked to put down ten percent of the purchase price of the home that won’t be available for a few more years, plus another ten percent to enter into the contract AND a further ten percent when the actual construction starts. Do they all agree to these terms? Yes, and none of the escrow deposits have ever had to be returned because the buyers are ready to commit to the properties.

The same applies to the lower priced homes being made available by Related Group. They are actually requiring that eighty percent of the purchase price be put down until the closing on the home, at which time the final twenty percent is required too.

There are other groups, such as the Brickell House group, that requires ten percent for a reservation on one of its newest units (a 374 unit project due to begin in the summer of 2012) and a full seventy percent of the cost to be paid during construction; or the Apogee Beach facility that asks for a 40% deposit for one of its 48 units.

Clearly, there has been a sort of metamorphosis in the preconstruction model. Rather than “monster” projects of thousands of homes at one time, with top tier pricing, the market has adjusted to fit the current global financial conditions.

This means that it is possible to find a great home in the Miami area that is newly built, totally modern in terms of amenities (such as the Porsche Design’s automated parking garages), and yet available at a cost that was once unheard of. The newest facet to this model, however, is that it can be a very measurable preconstruction period involved in the deal.

This measured sales approach is working well for buyers too because it does allow them to get a good price (currently averaging at less than $400 per square foot but going all of the way up to $1000 per square foot too) and to be able to use some payment terms that can work well with almost any budget. Ten percent to reserve a condominium about to break ground is a nice deal, and the opportunity to spread out the payments over the next few years is also beneficial. Many buyers will have to pay from twenty to forty percent of the entire price at closing, and this is why so many are rushing into this market before all of the available homes are gone.

The new Porsche Design Tower condo in Sunny Isles Beach

will be all glass, soaring 57 stories technological wonder with a $650 million price tag. This development will be the product of Gil Dezer and German Porsche Design Group.

With the Jetsonesque idea for parking, this latest proposed condo development will have a new, one of a kind twist for your “designer parking space” where the owner will pull over into the designated parking space, turn the the engine off and the all glass elevator will take you to the front of your door while you’re still sitting in your car.

“You don’t have to leave your car until you are in front of your apartment,� said Juergen Gessler, CEO of Porsche Design Group.

Here is how it will work: After the resident pulls over and switches off the engine, a robotic arm that works much like an automatic plank will scoop up the car and put it into the elevator. Once at the desired floor, the same robotic arm will park the car, leaving the resident nearly in front of his front door.

The glass elevators will give residents and their guests unparalleled views of the city or of the ocean during their high-speed ride, expected to last 45 to 90 seconds.

“What this is really doing is taking two technologies that have existed for centuries and putting them together,� said Gil Dezer, president of Dezer Properties. “It’s taking the robotic arm and it’s putting it in an elevator.�

The building, to named Porsche Design Tower, was approved unanimously Thursday night (November 17th, 2011) by the Sunny Isles Beach City Commission. Before the meeting, Mayor Norman S. Edelcup said he had not heard any opposition to the plan.

The cylindrical building will be erected on 2.2 acres of land at 18555 Collins Avenue. The 57-story luxury tower will have 132 units. Smaller units will be allocated two parking spaces and larger ones will have four, with 284 robotic parking spaces in total. There will be three elevators.

Residents will be able to see their cars from their living rooms.

“So people with fancy cars and antiques, they will actually have a really nice view of them,’’ Dezer said.

Units will range from 3,800 to 9,500 square feet and could cost up to $9 million.

The car elevators are the latest twist on Miami Beach’s burgeoning passion for designer parking garages. The highly acclaimed 1111 Lincoln Road designed by Swiss architects Herzog & de Meuron opened in 2009; also planned are garages by London architect Zaha Hadid, Mexico’s Enrique Norten and Miami’s own Arquitechonica.

Dezer said his hopes are that many other buildings in the United States and the rest of the world will be constructed following the Porsche Design Tower Sunny Isles model.

But this will be the first and last one in South Florida, he said.

“We want to keep this really exclusive and not have this become a McDonald’s kind of style. The tower is going to change the skyline of Miami Beach,� Dezer said. “This is something Floridians should be proud to have in their state.�
