I’ve been thinking about the idea of having a regular post that highlights what I feel are really great real estate buys here in Miami Beach.  There is no exact science that goes into selecting them, just my intimate knowledge of each building and their respective values.

Miami Beach Condo Buys

ICON South Beach:  450 Alton Road #1601.  This is a three bedroom corner unit with southwest exposure.  It was reduced to $1.59M from $1.9M on 1.24.08.

Canyon Ranch Living Miami Beach Condo Hotel:  6801 Collins Avenue #C 404.  This direct oceanfront condo-hotel unit at $875K is a steal.  Most of the one bedroom condo-hotels NOT on the ocean are in this price range.
