Follow on Google News | Bal Harbour Majestic Tower Condominium Sale Sets Sales RECORD with Linda G PropertiesLinda “G” of ONE Sotheby’s International Realty Miami Beach Set a Sales Record at The Majestic Tower in Bal Harbour. Another “Ray of Hope” in Today’s Challenging Real Estate Market. South Florida Real Estate Continues to Rebound!
By: Linda G Properties This rarely available line on the 17th floor was a beautiful 3 Bedroom 3.5 Bath 2,850 sq. ft. oceanfront condominium home with breathtaking unobstructed views of the ocean, coastline, Haulover inlet, Intracoastal waterway, bay and cityscapes. The unique location of this residence with floor to ceiling glass and a sweeping terrace provides the residents with panoramic eastern ocean views and western sunset views. Listed at $2,950,000, this luxury condominium residence closed at $2,900,000 after being on the market for less than a week. The sale of this residence set a record at the Majestic Tower as the price per square foot of $1,017.00 is the highest price per square foot ever paid at this luxury oceanfront tower. View the exclusive website for this listing here – http://www.MajesticTowerLuxuryCondo.com Linda “G” stated “I am thrilled with closing this property at the sale price of $2,900,000, which was only $50,000 under the listed price. As the selling agent, the negotiation process can be very strenuous, especially these past few years, taking into consideration the challenges we are faced with every day with the uncertainties of a large portion of the real estate market. This luxurious oceanfront condominium was listed at a fair price and even in today’s market, I believe that an ultra luxurious property, such as The Majestic Tower should be able to hold it’s value, even during the toughest of negotiations. This particular line in this building has been rarely offered on the market and it’s location in the building is in my opinion the best location with the finest in breathtaking ocean and South Florida views. The end result in this real estate sale, my sellers were very happy with the price and the quick sale. And the buyers were also very happy as they purchased a unique and beautiful unit that exceeded all their expectations. Linda added, “I can’t say enough about how important the support that ONE Sotheby’s International Realty Miami Beach and in particular Beth Butler, the COO and Broker provided to me. Without that support, this sale along with the new sales record for the Majestic Tower in Bal Harbour would not have happened.” Linda then added, “As I do represent both sellers and buyers, I am very familiar with both sides of the negotiations.” Commenting further, she added, “Certainly buyers are always looking for the best deal, and when I represent a buyer that is also my goal, but at the same time I let my clients know that property valuations and pricings are unique for each building and each location. If we are looking at a specific unit that is listed at a good price, or listed close to what I consider a realistic price, I let my buyers know that despite their possible desire to negotiate a much lower price, that we also run the risk of losing a chance to buy what might very well be their dream home and at an already realistic price from the beginning. I recognize that every seller and their selling position is unique, so I’m happy to test the waters of lower pricing possibilities, but a well priced luxury oceanfront or waterfront home or condominium should be recognized for that fact.” Linda also remarked that in the last few years she is working with buyers that have done a lot more of their own research. “While knowledge is power, and I’m glad to see more people educating themselves prior to contacting me, I have the occasional buyer contact me and begin to share with me all about the graphs and charts that they saw in a website or blog about median home or condominium prices for a particular city here in South Florida, I try and make it clear that while those numbers are enlightening, those numbers can be misleading and mean less than they might realize when looking to negotiate prices at a specific luxury building located directly on the ocean or water, whether that property is in Palm Beach or South Beach.” According to Linda, while we all know that real estate prices throughout the country have fallen due to many economic factors, there is still a limited amount of South Florida luxury oceanfront condominium residences, homes and properties to be had, and that uniqueness in itself certainly adds value to that market. The South Florida condominium boom of earlier this decade created a frenzy of investors and a glut in the South Florida real estate market just as the U.S. economy entered into the recession. It was a “perfect storm” to some degree and the effects will be felt for many years to come. Despite these facts, while downtown Miami and other inland areas may very well struggle for a few more years to get buyers to buy up a large percentage of the available condominium homes, that same problem will not plague (to the same degree) the more exclusive and luxury waterfront areas of South Beach, Miami Beach, Bal Harbour, Sunny Isles Beach and other communities located directly on the ocean. As an example, a number of luxury oceanfront buildings in Bal Harbour, Sunny Isles Beach and Miami Beach are currently listing up to 40% less available units for sale than they were just 7 months ago at the end of 2010.
