Fort Lauderdale Evolution Maturing to Trendy Luxury Hot Spot

Downtown Fort Lauderdale and beaches mature from spring break mecca to luxury hot spot

The Real Deal

Fort Lauderdale native Bob Swindell remembers the days when retailers and restaurant owners in downtown and the nearby beaches would shut down by 6 p.m. and stores would close up for the summer. “Things would get really quiet,” Swindell said.

The only real action the neighborhood experienced was during Fort Lauderdale’s vaunted spring break era, from the late 1960s to early 1990s, when hordes of college students turned downtown and the beaches into party central. The negative publicity eventually led city leaders to curtail Fort Lauderdale’s image as the raunchy resort town for a more subdued reputation as Broward County’s corporate epicenter that counted a daily newspaper, the Sun-Sentinel, as an anchor tenant.

Now, Fort Lauderdale’s downtown and beaches are going through another evolution that is transforming the neighborhood into an international destination, according to Swindell, who grew up to become president of the Greater Fort Lauderdale Alliance. “The fabric is really changing,” he said. “There is a lot of high-rise and mid-rise residential development that is leading to an influx of residents. It has created a great environment.”

Dan Teixeira, sales director for the Four Seasons Private Residences Fort Lauderdale, says the Las Olas Beach area went from drawing drunk spring breakers to attracting foreign real estate investors who are now flying into the city as a result of Fort Lauderdale International Airport adding international flights in recent years.

“At Four Seasons, we have many buyers from Europe, South America and the Middle East,” Teixeira said. “Fort Lauderdale is becoming a casual, yet sophisticated oceanfront community.”

Brazilians Find New Home in Miami

Brazilians are spending more money in the U.S. than ever…and Miami is benefitting big.
by James McClister February 17, 2015


A port of indulgence for Brazil’s elite, Miami has catered to South American investors for decades, helping them funnel huge sums into lavish, coastal condominiums. But now, following the recent reelection of Brazilian President Dilma Roussef, a number of the country’s biggest spenders are looking to increase their overseas holdings, and Miami is benefitting in a big way.
In a recent interview with The Wall Street Journal, Alyce Robertson, executive director of the Miami Downtown Development Authority, affirmed the impact Roussef’s reelection is having on South Florida.
“After the last election, we were talking to a lot of people concerned about getting their capital out of Brazil,” she said, adding that the exodus was largely a response to politics.

Brazilians Flee

With specific data unavailable, it’s difficult to quantify the recent influx of Brazilian investment. But throughout South Florida, developers, agents, bankers and a slew of other industry insiders are abuzz with talk of Brazil.
They speak of a swelling of Brazilian capital, aimed not just at property investments, but an increase in more prolonged and involved ventures, such as setting up businesses and obtaining residency and later citizenship for themselves and their families.
Genilde Guerra, an attorney at Kravitz & Guerra, told the Journal that Brazilian clients are mainly “concerned about the instability of Brazil’s political environment.
“They don’t want to be the last one’s to leave,” she said.

Growing demand for apartments pushes up rents....

As apartment demand continues to rise, landlords are projected to increase their rents for the fifth consecutive year. A rise in apartment construction isn't likely to offer relief to tenants anytime soon either, USA Today reports. Between 2000 and 2012, apartment rents have risen 6 percent while incomes among renters have fallen 13 percent in that time period, according to a report from Apartment List, a rental housing website that adjusts for inflation.
 

“That’s what we call the affordability gap,” says John Kobs, Apartment List’s chief executive.

“I don’t see that improving in the near future.” The vacancy rate for apartments has dropped from 8 percent to 4.1 percent from 2009 to 2013, according to Reis, a commercial real estate data provider. Meanwhile, the average national effective rent has increased 12 percent to $1,083 from 2009 to 2013, according to Reis, which data reflects apartments in buildings with 40 or more units.

A 6% rise in apartment rents between 2000 and 2012 has been exacerbated by a 13% drop in income among renters nationally over the same period, according to a report from Apartment List, a rental housing website, which used inflation-adjusted figures.

$50 Million Dollar Penthouse Breaks Records in Miami Beach

A super-luxe penthouse condo at the very top of Miami Beach's Faena House that was listed for $50 million is in contract, making it the most expensive condo ever sold in Miami Beach, according to The Wall Street Journal.

Though the identity of the buyer and closing price were not disclosed, the agent who represented the buyer told the WSJ that "his client liked the privacy afforded by the fact that the building is relatively small—47 units—and that the penthouse has a rooftop pool."

The Faena House, an 18-story condominium tower that sits on Miami Beach's widest stretch of white sand, was developed and built by Argentina's Faena Group. It contains 47 residences, but the penthouse, with panoramic views of the beach, bay and downtown skyline is by far the most luxurious.

The penthouse has five bedrooms, two custom kitchens, as well as a private interior elevator. The property also contains breathtaking features such as a 70-ft infinity pool and an additional 7,000 square feet of exterior space.
