Black Friday brings out buyers looking for bargains and buyers looking for Miami real estate investment properties are here in droves. While most people are enjoying time with family and friends, Realtors are busy selling properties. Driven by news reports of increasing prices, decreased inventories, and increasing rents both local and foreign buyers continue to purchase Miami real estate for investment.
The top places where my buyers are looking, not in any particular order:
- Brickell: Currently there are 526 condos for sale in the Brickell area. They range from $146, 900 for 580 square feet to $16.8 million for 9080 square feet.

- Pinecrest: There are very few condos and town houses in Pinecrest, an area mostly comprised of single family homes, so it is not surprising that there are 13 condos for sale in Pinecrest.
