Only 3 Sales All Year In Deering Bay, Could Association Fees Be The Problem?
July 7th, 2010 Categories:Coral Gables Condos
The market in Deering Bay has been very slow this year. There are currently 20 units on the market and there have only been 3 sales all year. None of the units for sale or that have sold are in distress. Although the value is very good in Deering Bay right now (3 bedrooms selling under $800,000) buyers looking in this price point are typically not able to swallow their high association fees.
First sale was in the Siena Building, it was a 3 bedrooms/3 baths with 2,282 square feet of living space. It was listed at $995,000 and sold for $927,500.
The second unit that sold was in the Padua Building, this was also a 3 bedrooms/3 baths with 2,980 square feet of living space. It was listed at $799,000 and sold for $720,000.
The final sale was located in the Venice Building which also sold for $720,000. This unit featured 3 bedrooms/2 baths with 2,700 square feet of living space.

Best Building In Deering Bay?
March 30th, 2010 Categories:Coral Gables Condos
I was having a chat with my Deering Bay specialist about the condo buildings in Deering Bay and we were discussing her favorite, the Padua building. Even though it is one of the older buildings she enjoys its open and airy atmosphere and appreciates the large closets. But some clients still prefer the newer buildings in Deering Bay such as the Milano, the Sienna and the Verona which have traditional lobbies, gyms, and are generally more updated than units in the older buildings. So in the end, if you are looking to purchase a condo in Deering Bay you should certainly take a look at what is available in all of the buildings as they each have something different to offer.
Here is information on condos available in Deering Bay. If you are interested in buying or selling in Deering Bay and are looking for an experienced, knowledgeable realtor, please don’t hesitate to contact my team here or on my cell at 305.342.1623.

We all know that most condominium buildings in South Florida have taken a big hit in the market crash. But in Deering Bay, most of the units on the market are now asking much more than they sold for just a few years ago.

The unit is updated with ebonized mahogany wood floors, silhouette and black out shades, new appliances, crown moldings and many more special features. The unit has wonderful views of the Deering Bay Lagoon and golf course. Other details include: 2,740 square feet of living space and 4 bedrooms, 3 baths. Broker is Miami Real Estate.

Edgewater Drive In Coral Gables – Something For Everyone
February 15th, 2010 Categories:Coral Gables Condos
Edgewater Drive is located at the mouth of the Coral Gables Waterway. As far as real estate goes, there is something for everyone on this street. You can find inexpensive non-waterfront condos on the north side of Edgwater and $16,000,000 penthouses on the south side.
Talking with residents of Edgewater Drive they tell me that they love the street for its proximity to Coral Gables and Coconut Grove. The street also has a very residential feeling. It is lined with trees and sidewalks, and is just steps from the recently renovated Sunrise Park. The street is a haven for joggers and cyclists (including myself) on the weekend who try to avoid the traffic found on Ingraham Highway.
