Miami Condo Index – Brickell Key – November 2007

November 29, 2007 by Lucas Lechuga

Brickell Key


The average price per square foot of condos listed in Brickell Key has gone down once again, as it has every month since I began this index. The average price per square foot of the ten condos, which represent the Brickell Key Condo Index, fell to $494.61 this month from last month’s figure of $501.55. The weight-adjusted average also fell to $490.87 per square foot versus last month’s weight-adjusted average of $497.82.

Brickell Key Condo Index


This is the first month since I began the Brickell Key Condo Index that the average price per square foot of condos sold over the previous six months has gone up. The average price per square foot of condos sold within the last six months increased to $435.21 from last month’s average of $430.08. The weight-adjusted average also increased to $433.31 from last month’s weight-adjusted average of $424.57. Most of this is attributed to the lack of closed sales at Brickell Key Two. A closed sale of $375 per square foot at Brickell Key Two fell off the average and was replaced by a new closed sale within the past month at $446 per square foot. One closed sale within the past six months encompassed the average in October and November. As I said, the lack of closed sales is to blame.

There have been a total of 6 closed sales within the past month which is much better than the pathetic 2 closings revealed in last month's update. These 6 closings, however, were highly concentrated with 4 of the 6 closings residing at Carbonell. Pending sales have inched up to 18 from last month's 16 pending sales.

I has asked in your previous post if you knew anything about Renzi’s practices. I invested in the Blue on Coral Way (not yet built) since 2003. They changed the contract and I bought into it at the beginning of 2006 (the crisis was not that obvious). Construction began and stopped. Big mess, people trying to get out of it. The site looks abandoned. Any help would be welcome.

Lucas – I also think that the trend of list prices coming down and sale prices going up indicates clearly that sellers continue to get realistic about values and that buyer’s are beginning to buy because prices are good. Do you agree?

Thomas,
I’ve definitely been seeing a lot of activity lately. I’m not sure if it’s because we’re in peak season or because list prices have consistently been coming down. I think it’s a combination of the two. I’ve been getting a lot of out-of-state and out-of-the-country buyers lately which tells me that they find our prices attractive.

All the foreclosures I have featured on my website have moved this month escept for unit 501 at Carbonell which can point to only one thing, I think there is demand for Brickell Key, with the Asia finished there is no more space for buildings making it as Lucas stated very stable. I am personally looking for a 3 bedroom foreclosure on Carbonell and i will pick it up the day it comes on the market
