The Wealth & Talent Migration Continues
Census data, IRS data, license plate data, etc... all keep quantifying the ongoing wealth and talent migration. We see the appetites of the new buyers reflected in the extreme spikes in sales past $1K and $2K / square foot. Most notably, SFH past $2K / SF remain over 5x higher than 2019, pre-Covid.

2020 & 2019 ReportsAnalyticsMiami
2020
Supply and Demand: Miami and Miami Beach condos
Data is through Q4 2019
Extreme Disconnect
There is a fundamental supply & demand disconnect in the Miami area luxury condo market. Since Q4 2013, the Miami $1M+ condo market saw a 178% increase in supply. Demand decreased 18% in the same time frame.
Cash Was King
This last cycle was fueled by cash buyers. At 2013 volume highs, Miami Beach was 76% all cash and Miami was 70%. In 2019 those numbers were 61% and 42%. The high % of cash means there is low debt service pressure, which may be why we are seeing listings languish.
2020
State of the Market: Miami Beach Condos
Data is through Q4 2019
Destination Money
The current market cycle catered to and was driven by destination money. The average 2019 resale price for a condo built post 2000 was $1.6M. Virtually
no inventory was added at price points catering to in-place demand.
Cash Was King
The current market cycle was fueled almost entirely by cash. At transaction volume highs in 2013, 76% of condo sales were cash. 2019 transaction volume was 37% below 2013, and that drop is due entirely to the loss of cash buyers.
Q3 2019
Supply and Demand Report: Miami area condo market

Inventory has steadily risen across market segments, all while transaction volume has dropped off. Higher price points are the worst offenders. The Miami $1M+ market saw a 147% increase in supply since 2013, while sales dropped 32% in the same period.
Transaction volume below 2010
Miami Beach and Miami condo transaction volume remains below the post-recession numbers we saw in 2010. For most market segments transaction volume peaked in 2013, and has since been dropping. Recent changes to SALT deductions have not offset the volume decline.
