Miami Beach's condo market, and Miami in general for that matter, is not looking so good. That may depend on who you ask, but strictly from a numbers standpoint supply is beginning to outstript demand. I realize some may lead you to believe that sale prices are still the same.

The luxury condo market is taking a big hit too. But, hey, a monkey could have … (0 comments)

I have compiled a list of the most important sites every tourist and local alike must see while in South Florida.
