One Miami – 2 Bedroom/2 Bath Short-Sale Listed at $329,900

August 22, 2007

I just noticed a 2 bedroom/2 bath short-sale at One Miami that is priced at $329,900, or $282 per square foot. My August Brickell Condo Index revealed that condos at One Miami have sold for an average price per square foot of $450.94 over the past six months. A 2/2 located directly three floors above the short-sale unit sold for $489,500 on April 26, 2007.

I highly doubt, however, that the bank will accept an offer even close to the $329,900 list price. They definitely won’t pay the 4 percent commission that the listing is advertising. I spoke with the listing agent to find out if the list price is close to what the bank is owed. He said no, the bank is owed much, much more. It is probably a waste of time but it will be interesting to see at what price it ends up selling. Some banks are ready to play ball and some still aren’t. My guess is that it will end up being repossessed by the bank.
