Real estate in 2026 looks very different from real estate five years ago. And the single biggest reason is AI. I want to be completely transparent about how I use it — and why it matters for you.

When I take on a new listing, AI is at work from the very first day. It processes thousands of comparable sales to identify the ideal price point. It maps the most likely buyer pool — their location, income profile, online behavior, and search history — so my marketing does not spray and pray. It tells me the optimal time to post, when to send emails, which platforms to boost on, and what messaging resonates most with the specific audience I am targeting for your home.

When I represent a buyer, AI scans the entire market in real time — flagging new listings the moment they appear, tracking price histories, monitoring days on market, and modeling offer strategies based on live transaction data. My buyers never miss an opportunity because the data is always current.

But here is what AI cannot do — and this is the part that matters most. It cannot sit across from a seller who is emotionally attached to their home and find the right words to align expectations. It cannot read a room during a negotiation and know exactly when to hold firm and when to move. It cannot pick up the phone at 10pm when a deal is about to fall apart and know how to save it.

That part is still me. Fifteen years. Over $2 billion in closed sales. Every relationship, every instinct, every lesson — none of that is in a database.

My clients get the full picture. The technology and the expertise, working together. That is the standard of service I bring to every single transaction.

Okan Tower in Downtown Miami just hit 75% structural completion — 50 of 72 floors are in place and construction is rising at one floor per week. Topping out is expected in August. Delivery in 2027.

This is a 902-foot tulip-shaped supertall anchored by a 316-key Hilton Miami Bayfront Hotel, with 163 Sky Residences in the upper floors, a 72nd-floor rooftop pool among the tallest in the country, and over 80,000 square feet of amenities — all in the heart of Downtown Miami, one block from the Metromover and minutes from Brickell, Wynwood, and Miami Beach.

The Sky Residences are selling and time is running short.

Happy first day of June, South Florida. Welcome to summer. 🌊

There is no better time to be in this market than right now. Q1 2026 closed with luxury single-family prices up 3.3% year-over-year to an average of $2.57 million across the region, and the Keyes Company's latest luxury report confirmed that buyers and sellers are aligning on price more quickly than they have in recent years — meaning properties are moving faster and with less friction than the market has seen in some time.

Summer is historically the season when out-of-state and international buyers become most active in South Florida. They spend the summer here, fall in love with the lifestyle, and reach out to make it permanent. Nearly 49% of all new construction and pre-construction sales in South Florida over the past 18 months were purchased by international buyers — a figure that reinforces just how global this market has become.

If you have been thinking about buying, selling, or simply want to know what your waterfront property is worth today — I am the right person to call. Fifteen years. Over $1 billion in closed sales. And a market I know better than anyone.

Happy Friday, South Florida. This one is going to be a great weekend. 🌊
Tonight Keith Urban is performing at Hard Rock Live in Hollywood — just one of the many reasons people fall in love with this city and never want to leave. World-class entertainment, ocean breezes, and a lifestyle that hits different every single weekend.

If you have been thinking about making South Florida your permanent address, there has never been a better time to explore what is available.

A number worth knowing right now. 📊
In 2025 alone, the top ten priciest home sales in the U.S. all surpassed $100 million — and South Florida claimed the country's single highest-priced home sale of the year. That is not a coincidence. That is the result of years of wealth migration, global investment, and a lifestyle that the world's most successful people keep choosing.

The buyers making these moves are not speculating. They are making long-term commitments to one of the most resilient markets in the world.
If South Florida is on your radar — it should be.

Welcome back, South Florida. Hope everyone had a meaningful Memorial Day weekend.
The market does not take long weekends. Analysts are forecasting approximately 3% annual price growth through 2026 and 2027 for South Florida's luxury segment, and most ultra-luxury transactions are cash-based — reducing sensitivity to rate fluctuations entirely. Luxury sales above $1 million were up over 20% in Miami-Dade and Broward year-over-year heading into summer.
This is a market with real structural momentum behind it. If you have been thinking about making a move, I am here and ready to have that conversation.

Villa Miami just hit the 37th floor — and it is now the most visually striking construction project on the Miami skyline.

Rising 650 feet above Biscayne Bay in Edgewater, the 56-story tower has now surpassed 65% of its final height. Two tower cranes are actively pushing the structure skyward, and the building's signature copper exoskeleton frame is already defining the tower's distinctive silhouette — a chamfered, faceted profile unlike any other residential building in Miami. Glass panels are enclosing completed residential floors, and the project remains on track for completion.

HERE IS WHAT MAKES VILLA MIAMI UNLIKE ANYTHING ELSE IN THE CITY:

🏠 Only 70 residences — half-floor and full-floor layouts from 3,000 to 6,000 sq ft
💰 Prices from $5.5 million — $55 million penthouse just revealed, delivered fully finished
🍽️ Three levels of private club amenities and dining managed exclusively by Major Food Group
👨‍🍳 In-residence kitchens designed by Chef Mario Carbone
🎨 Interiors by Vicky Charles of Charles & Co. — AD100 designer and celebrity-favorite
🚁 Edgewater's first rooftop helipad — accessible by air, land, and sea
🌊 360° views of Biscayne Bay, the Atlantic Ocean, Downtown Miami, and Miami Beach
🏗️ Developed by Terra Group + One Thousand Group · Architecture by ODP Architects

This is one of the most exclusive residential collections ever assembled in Miami — 70 homes total, in a city of three million people. The remaining availability is extremely limited.

If this is the caliber of investment you have been looking for, I would love to set up a private consultation.

Today is about more than the start of summer.

We honor and remember the brave men and women of our armed forces who made the ultimate sacrifice for this country. Because of them, we get to enjoy everything this beautiful life has to offer.

From all of us at the Seaside Group — thank you, and Happy Memorial Day.
