2 Bedroom Miami Foreclosure at Blue Condo – $197,000

A 2 bedroom/2.5 bath foreclosure at Blue Condo came onto the market Tuesday afternoon for $197,000.  I had a few moments in between showing appointments yesterday so I decided to stop by to take a look.  The unit has 1,158 square feet of interior, recessed lighting in the living room and both bedrooms, dark hard wood flooring throughout most of the condo and a balcony with a view of Biscayne Bay from the 16th floor.  All of the appliances, however, are missing so they will need to be replaced by the new buyer.  The condo comes with 1 assigned parking space.  The maintenance fee is $850 per month.

As I mentioned in a previous post, Blue Condo is now Fannie Mae approved so financing is available to qualified buyers.  If you have an interest in viewing this condo foreclosure at Blue Condo or have any questions, give me a call at 786-247-6332.

1 Bedroom Foreclosure at Brickell on the River North – $138,000

A 1 bedroom/1 bath condo foreclosure at Brickell on the River North became available yesterday for $138,000.  The unit has 757 square feet of interior space, a balcony off the living room, a Jacuzzi tub in the bathroom, carpeting in the living room and bedroom, ceramic tile in the kitchen and marble flooring in the bathroom.  Earlier this afternoon, I stopped by the condo to take a look at it for myself.  The unit appeared to be in great condition with all appliances, including the washer/dryer, still present in the unit.  The 24th floor condo faces west with a direct view of the Miami River and the sunset in the evening.

This is definitely one of the best priced 1 bedroom condo foreclosures that I’ve seen come onto the market within the past three months.  $182 per square foot is a good deal for a condo in a quality building like Brickell on the River North.  Amenities in the building include 24-hour concierge and valet parking, fitness center, yoga room, sauna, steam room, conference room, club room, swimming pool and hot tub.  The previous owner paid $305,000 in February 2006 for this 1 bedroom condo.  This unit will likely have multiple offers and be under contract by next Friday.

Call me at 305-428-3860 if you would like to view the condo in person.

Blue Condominium 2 Bedroom Sells For $190K

A 2 bedroom foreclosure condo at Blue Condominium closed earlier this afternoon for $190,000.  This marks the lowest that a 2 bedroom in the building has ever sold.  Unit 1207 has 1,158 square feet of interior space and a view of Biscayne Bay.  It originally went under contract on August 10, 2009 but the closing was delayed for months due to problems that needed to be corrected with the deed.  Currently, there are twenty 2 bedroom short sales at Blue Condominium, two of which are listed for less than $190K.  Hopefully this recent sale will give banks the kick in the butt to start approving some of the short sales in the building.

Unit 1508 at Brickell on the River North Revisited

Towards the end of February, I wrote about a 2 bedroom/2 bath condo foreclosure at Brickell on the River North that had recently been listed at the time.  The condo was listed for $159,000, or $151 per square foot.  The 2 bedroom was priced below recently closed 1 bedroom condos at Brickell on the River North and, as a result, attracted the interest of many buyers.  From speaking with the listing agent in February, I learned that he had received over 30 offers for the condo.  The unit closed on April 3, 2009 for $236,000, well above asking price.
