1.1. Overall Miami Beach Luxury Condo Sales

Despite the typical winter slowdown, Miami Beach exceeded expectations with both quarterly and annual sales growth in Q4 2024. This trend mirrored the broader Miami market, where sales remained strong. Additionally, Miami Beach continued shifting away from seasonal fluctuations, seeing more consistent, year-round demand.

 

Key Q4 2024 Sales Statistics – Miami Beach:

• Quarter-over-Quarter Growth: Sales jumped 16.9%, up from 148 in Q3 to 173 in Q4 2024 (Fig. 1).

Annual Sales down 3.5% – Negative Trendline

• Annual Sales Decline: Sales fell 3.5%, dropping from 830 in 2023 to 801 in 2024 (Fig. 1a).

Despite strong momentum in Q4, the 12-month sales trend (Fig. 2.3) continued on a downward trajectory from Q3 to Q4 2024. As luxury market experts, and based on our client interactions, we anticipate a softer start to Q1 2025 in Miami Beach compared to mainland neighborhoods analyzed in our Q4 2024 and annual luxury housing report.

Q4 2024 Price per Sq. Ft. flat at $1,157 – Median Price down year-over-year

Days on Market down 10.6% on annual basis, up 7% 4Q24-over-4Q23

While the overall Miami market saw an increase in Days on Market (DOM) in both annual and Q4 year-over-year comparisons, Miami Beach reported mixed trends:

 

• Annual (2024 vs 2023): Luxury condos spent 9 fewer days on the market, a 10.6% decrease year-over-year (Fig. 1a).

With inventory at 27 months, well above the 9-12 months considered ideal, Miami Beach has fully transitioned into a buyer’s market. 

 

As luxury housing experts and given the current sales pace and incoming pre-construction supply, we expect this trend to continue through 2025. Buyers will have more leverage in negotiations, while sellers may need to adjust pricing strategies to align with market conditions.

7. Conclusion - Annual & Q4 2024 Miami Beach Luxury Condo Market Report

Despite the typical winter slowdown, historically a slower sales period for Miami real estate, Miami Beach defied expectations with increased year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter activity in Q4 2024. This trend aligned with the positive sentiment in Miami’s overall luxury condo market for Q4 2024, as all Miami Beach neighborhoods reviewed in this report recorded year-over-year sales growth.

 

On an annual basis, Miami Beach’s luxury condo market maintained stability, mirroring 2023’s energy and reinforcing its steady growth trajectory.

 

Among the top-performing neighborhoods, Fisher Island stood out as the preferred choice for luxury condo buyers, recording the highest year-over-year sales growth (60%) in Q4 2024. Meanwhile, Mid-North Beach was the fastest-growing sub-market in annual sales, leading 2024-over-2023 growth.

 

Following the overall Miami trend, the 12-month sales trendline showed a negative curve across Miami Beach, except for Fisher Island. Based on this data and our daily market observations, as luxury real estate experts we anticipate Q1 2025 to open on a softer note in Miami Beach, compared to mainland neighborhoods like Greater Downtown and Coconut Grove & Coral Gables (combined).

 

In our price watch, Miami Beach showed signs of price saturation and correction, deviating from Miami’s broader positive price trends. Annual prices declined, and Q4 2024-over-Q4 2023 Price per Square Foot remained flat, indicating a possible market adjustment going into 2025 following steady price increases since 2020.

 

Fisher Island continued as the undisputed market leader with the highest recorded price per square foot and sales prices in our 2024 vs. 2023 and Q4 2024 analysis, making it the most premium zip code for luxury condos in South Florida. The private island recorded the most expensive price per square foot in Q4 2024 at $2,552, along with an unmatched median sales price of $7.1 million.

 

Fisher Island also led Miami Beach’s price appreciation in Q4 2024, delivering sellers a strong return on investment with a 38% year-over-year increase.

 

In Q4 2024, the Days on Market statistic reported an increase in year-over-year numbers, much like the overall Miami market. 

 

Regarding inventory, stats were notably higher across the board in Miami Beach, except for Fisher Island, as anticipated and in sync with the overall market trends. The exclusive island reported a decline with the lowest year-end inventory (16 months).

 

As seasoned luxury real estate experts, we anticipate several key factors shaping Miami Beach’s luxury housing market in 2025:

 

• Miami's wealth migration trend—with incoming residents averaging an adjusted gross income of $175,600 and businesses relocating for tax advantages and a favorable climate— to further fuel luxury housing demand.

• Our economy will continue to thrive thanks to the ongoing global attention ahead of the FIFA 2026 World Cup, reinforcing its status as an international destination. 

• With Mar-a-Lago emerging as a gathering place for high-profile figures, Miami’s political significance will keep rising. This heightened visibility will likely attract more high-net-worth buyers from around the world, further fueling demand for luxury condos.

• We also expect a steady influx of international buyers, centi-millionaires, and ex-pats drawn to Miami’s booming pre-construction condo market, attracted by eco-friendly designs, wellness-focused amenities, and branded luxury developments, which continue to redefine Miami Beach’s luxury real estate landscape.

• Despite economic pressures such as rising condo fees, insurance costs, and elevated mortgage rates, Miami’s cash-driven real estate market is expected to outperform other major U.S. housing markets, providing market stability.

• We further expect the luxury condo market to remain buyer-friendly in 2025 as inventory levels stay elevated with completed pre-construction condo products joining the market.
