We published a previous post on water hook up requirements through MiamiRealEstateCafe.com … and are reposting it now because it’s a question that’s asked frequently. 

 The Village of Pinecrest indicates: 

1)  Current homeowners in the Village of Pinecrest have a 10 year grace period in which to connect to city water, once the lines are in place for that particular residence.

2) Hook-up is mandatory once a property is sold.

 3) It is the responsibility of the buyer to connect, and the buyer has 90 days in which to do so.

 4) Costs are subject to change …  Prices were $146 for the Village of Pinecrest permit, and $486 for Miami-Dade hook-up…. but  check with the governing municipality that your property is within for any changes.

 5) The buyer hires their own plumber to do the work. Price varies accordingly.

MIAMI’S MIDTOWN is starting to take on the look and feel of New York’s Meat Packing and SoHo Districts.  

Miami has a new  “fashionably-trendy” hot spot… offering walkability… a neighborhood feel … nightlife… shopping and dining … entertainment … art … and a vibrant interactive community in the areas of  MIDTOWN  and the MIAMI DESIGN DISTRICT.   Wynwood, Midtown and the Design District are all  pretty much adjacent to one another - each of them located  immediately north of Downtown Miami … and  within blocks of the ”10 billion dollar mile”.  

A host of trendy new restaurants, new condo construction, shops and restaurants  have seemingly sprung up overnight in Midtown and the Design District …  With the Miami Art Festival  (and influx of art galleries, dining options and stores popping up)   Midtown planted itself on the map at the end of 2011 …  and made it the talk of Miami in a matter of a few months.

Condos in Midtown can be bought for around $200.00 a square foot … brand new…   and range in price from around $200,000.00 – upward . Read the rest of this entry »

Buzz word on the streets, all over Miami, as well as in this recent article published by  HOUSINGWIRE.COM  is that real estate sales in South Florida are up from last year: 

“Home prices in South Florida jumped in the fourth quarter as international buyers and investors nabbed affordable inventory.

In Broward County, where Fort Lauderdale is the county seat, existing single-family home and condo sales increased 6% to 6,572 sales in 4Q 2011 from 6,225 in the fourth quarter of 2010, according to the Miami Association of Realtors.

In Miami-Dade County,  sales of existing, single-family homes and condo  increased in 4Q 2011 to 5,839 sales from 4,722 in the comparable year-ago period.”

Inventory is down  … having dropped drastically …  Inventory in Miami-Dade  is currently 40%  less than what it was  last year.
