10 Benefits of Living in a City like Miami





Living in a city like Miami comes with a number of benefits, some of them quite unique. Every year, more and more people from every corner of America (and the world) decide to come here not only to vacation but to live and invest. In this article, we are going to talk about the top 10 benefits of living here, in case you were wondering and thinking about moving here anytime soon!

1.      Weather: this is one of the main reasons why people choose Miami. The subtropical climate makes this city a much more relaxed and laid-back place, especially if you compare it with other similar cities (in size, development and population density).

2.      Entertainment and nightlife: Miami receives thousands of visitors every year in every season, so they’ve become actual experts in these two things. Many people finally decide to live and invest here because it’s one of the most entertaining and active cities in the world.



3.      Cultural diversity: this particular point is what makes Miami so unique. South Florida is a doorway to Central and South America, and the many immigrants who have come to live here through the years have made a huge positive impact (socially, culturally and economically) in this corner of the US. 

4.      The Caribbean: without a doubt, some of the best things about Miami are its beaches. Blue sea, white sand, palm trees, the sun and the tropical wind will make anyone want to move here.

5.      Financial growth opportunities: this fast-moving city makes one great place to invest and create wealth, particularly in real estate. 

6.      Positive values: tolerance and equality are just some of the good values that you’ll develop here. Thanks to cultural diversity, this city has learned everything about respecting everyone else’s beliefs, traditions and customs.

7.      Amazing cuisine: another great thing about cultural diversity is the variety of choices when it’s time to eat. The perfection of culinary fusion can be found in only a handful of places, one of them is definitely Miami.

8.      Great attractions: besides the beautiful beaches, there are many attractions in Miami and its surroundings. The Everglades, Zoo Miami, and the Miami Seaquarium are just three of them, and even the locals visit them often. 

9.      Sports: basketball, soccer, football, baseball and water sports of all kind attract many visitors and investors every year. Even college leagues get a lot of attention, because there’s a lot of talent in Miami.

Governments change, economies shake and Miami remains solid





2017 is a year full of expectations for some, doubts for others, especially when it comes to investing in Real Estate. But as history has shown us, markets go up and down, but they ultimately stabilize. That’s not the case for South Florida; apparently, this region of America is somehow “bullet-proof”. Maybe we are exaggerating, but what we can say for sure is that all the employment policies and immigrant matters will not negatively affect the housing market in this region; governments change, economies shake and Miami remains solid.

In 2016, many experts predicted an implosion of the Real Estate market in Miami, and by the end of the year, it turned out to be just a slowdown. Of course, this might discourage some new investors, but after all the growth that this town has seen in the last years, a slowdown isn’t much of a problem for most investors. Experts suspect this slowdown happened because of the November elections, and it’s just the beginning of an upward cycle; in other words, the market took a deep breath last year.
 
On the other hand, 2017 is not going to be the year for constructors, since financing has become harder than in the past. Still, this is no reason to worry; there’s still plenty of choices for investors looking to put their money on Real Estate in Miami. Last year, many sellers paused their properties and decided to rent only, while investors held their breath until the election was over. Now, at the beginning of the second quarter of the year, the foggy expectations are starting to look bright once more.

Talking about immigrants, we all know South Florida has one of the highest immigrant populations in America, especially latinos. Illegal immigrants are quite a topic nowadays, and there’s a lot of speculation about this, but the truth is, this matters don’t apply (at least not directly) to the Real Estate market. Many investors in Miami and its surroundings come from Central and South America, but most of these people are buying their second home. This means they are looking for legal ways to get American Citizenship (if they actually want it at all). While immigrant policies might affect the economy in other ways, the Real Estate market doesn’t shake to this matter.
