On top of all of the pending sales I have reported on recently, a new listing came on the market last night priced at $4,750,000. The home is located at 6945 Sunrise Terrace. View information here.

Non-Waterfront Luxury Homes In Coral Gables
August 23rd, 2011 Categories:Coral Gables Real Estate
My question today is…..are buyers in the luxury home market willing to pay high prices for non-waterfront homes? And, is there a plateau where buyers will not go any higher for a home that is non-waterfront. The answer is yes and yes.
The highest non-waterfront sale during the past 24 months was for an 11,282 square foot house on a 34,000 square foot house in Cocoplum. The house was listed for $6,250,000 but sold for $4,500,000. To view photos of this house click here.
Below are the 3 highest non-waterfront sales in 2011 in Coral Gables, click here to view photos the top 10.
1101 North Greenway Drive | List Price: $3,950,000 | Sale Price: $3,500,000 | 6,429 square feet of living space | 25,275 square foot lot | 4 bedrooms, 4 baths.
4515 Santa Maria Street | List Price: $3,500,000 | Sale Price: $3,500,000 | 5,763 square feet of living space | 12,500 square foot lot | 4 bedrooms, 2 baths.

Even though waterfront is highly desirable, I have spoken with many buyers who are looking specifically for non-waterfront properties in the Gables. It is no secret that when you buy a $3,000,000 non-waterfront home compared to a $3,000,000 waterfront home you get a bigger and better house for your money. It all comes down to a buyer’s needs and wants.

Selling Your Home In Coral Gables? Don’t Chase The Market!
August 18th, 2011 Categories:Coral Gables Real Estate
If you have been chasing the market in Coral Gables over the past few years then you may have positioned yourself as a desperate seller. Buyers will see how long you have been trying to sell your home and they will try to take advantage of that. Unfortunately there is no way to erase the property history of a home on the MLS.
Take a look at the history of this home located on Old Cutler Road that is currently on the market for sale. Who do you think will have the advantage during negotiations?
10/01/2007: Came on the market at $7,275,000
3/24/2008: Reduced to $6,985,000
7/15/2008: Reduced to $6,250,000
10/02/2008: Reduced to $5,750,000
6/15/2009: Reduced to $5,299,000
10/15/2009: Reduced to $4,950,000
01/06/2010: Reduced to $4,200,000
Currently listed at $3,900,000
These sellers have also been through 3 different real estate agents throughout this time. It is a classic case of a seller who blames the realtor for the home not selling instead of the price.
I know the numbers, I analyze the market, my clients make better decisions. If you are interested in buying, selling, building or renting and are looking for a real estate agent who specializes in Coral Gables, please feel free to contact me at 305.342.1623 or send me a note here.
