Brickell House Finally Finds Solution to Its Parking Garage Woes
All eyes on are on Brickell House condominium tower after years of fighting a parking garage battle! More than 6 years in the making, owners now see a solution to their parking concerns.
The Brickell House Association has contracted ParkPlus High Density Parking Systems to complete the parking replacement project. ParkPlus has 50+ years of history in parking automation and they offer a number of solutions for any need; including robotic parking solutions, self-park stacking, and manually operated stacking.
The parking replacement project is estimated to take up to 77 weeks once permits and approval from the city are in place. ParkPlus is estimating 411 parking places with 80 spaces for electric vehicle charges. With the new system in place, it is estimated that 95 vehicles can be parked per hour.
With the $72 million awarded from the previous parking systems lawsuit, the Association will be able to cover the transition to this parking project making a special assessment not necessary for unit owners. The Brickell House Association has stated that they have taken into account the cost of preventative maintenance for 15 years but may need to revaluate due to technology advances in the future.
ParkPlus is bonded and insured, and the Association has additional insurances if the need arises. Initially there will be valet parking only, which will eventually transition into self-parking. Until the transition occurs, there will be personnel ready to assist in the parking and loading areas.
With this new parking replacement project in full swing, prices for Brickell House condos should rebound over the next few years as there is finally a light at the end of the tunnel!
Is Cryptocurrency Changing the Miami Real Estate Market?
With the Miami real estate market so hot right, it is of no surprise that offers are becoming more and more creative. We are seeing contingencies and appraisals being dropped to create a competitive edge for buyers. These aren’t the only items of change! In the MLS (multiple listing service), we are seeing an option for sellers to decided if they will accept cryptocurrency in their offer.
Cryptocurrency is a digital asset used to purchase goods and services. It has made headway in the past few years and it continues to gain popularity. In Miami we are seeing nightclubs, retail shops, and airlines accepting this form of payment. More retail stores are beginning to accept it like Overstock.com, Microsoft, and Home Depot, to name a few.
According to The Real Deal, South Florida is seeing a large number of Financial Managers and Tech-Savvy Entrepreneurs from Silicon Valley and New York using crypto in their real estate offers.
Vice President of Portfolio Development for Idoneus, Tim O’Leary handles a Swiss payment token (native cryptocurrency), which he has seen included in real estate offers more recently. O’Leary stated, “Idoneus has been utilized as a method of payment to acquire properties in Alaska, to Florida, to the Caribbean.”
There are a few different cryptocurrencies currently out and the most popular is Bitcoin. With how mainstream Bitcoin has become, crypto is becoming a common occurrence but there is still much hesitation. Since crypto leaves no paper trail, there is a lot of skepticism.
One of the biggest perks is that it can allow for cheaper and faster transactions, which is huge for the current real estate market.
