Paramount Bay Condos
In anticipation of Paramount Bay launching sales in the coming months, I decided to launch my very own Paramount Bay website complete with floor plans. Obviously, more content such as videos and additional pictures will be added to the website once Paramount Bay officially opens to the public. Paramount Bay is a highly anticipated building and we’re confident that it will come to be regarded as one of Miami’s finest condo developments. I will be sure to let everyone know as soon as I hear anything new regarding Paramount Bay. Feel free to send me an email if you would like to be informed via email of the Paramount Bay sales launch date once it becomes available.
Over the past year, we’ve also launched the following building specific websites:
Apogee South Beach Penthouse Sells For $11.5M
Penthouse A at Apogee South Beach closed yesterday for $11.5M. The transaction is the highest priced condo sale in Miami Dade County in 2011. Furthermore, it also is the fifth highest condo resale in Miami-Dade history. The penthouse has 6,853 square feet of interior, over 11,000 square feet of terrace, a private rooftop pool, a summer kitchen and offers 360-degree views of the Atlantic Ocean, Biscayne Bay and the city. The buyer was an undisclosed person from Europe.
2011 may turn out to be a very hot year for the luxury real estate market in Miami. There should be a lot of activity in the coming months, particularly in the luxury homes market. Currently, there are five waterfront homes priced over $9M that are under contract with the highest being a 15,008 square foot home listed for $32M. I’ll be sure to keep an eye on these properties and report back once they close. In the meantime, enjoy the following pictures of Penthouse A at Apogee South Beach.

Paramount Bay Granted Fannie Mae Approval
Sales haven’t quite yet begun at Paramount Bay but the development was granted Fannie Mae approval last week. The conditional approval expires on September 25, 2011 which leads me to believe that we should expect sales to launch very soon. Paramount Bay, located in the Arts District of Miami at 2066 North Bayshore Drive, was developed by Royal Palm Communities and completed in 2009. The construction loan was originally held by Corus Bank which was later seized by the FDIC on September 11, 2009. Starwood Capital Group then acquired Corus’ real estate assets on October 2, 2009 by beating seven groups with a winning bid of $554 million. Paramount Bay was one of three condo developments residing in Miami that were part of the real estate portfolio acquired in that auction. Personally, I’m very excited about Paramount Bay and can’t wait to tour it again. I toured Paramount Bay in 2009 but the building wasn’t quite ready and I hear that Starwood has invested lots of additional money into the building over the past three months to really blow everyone away. No word yet on what pricing will be like but I’m expecting it to be close to that of 900 Biscayne Bay.
