Hyde Midtown
Condos & Condo Hotel Units in Midtown Miami
July 30, 2014
Hello. Joel Greene here from Condo Hotel Center. I was reading The Miami Herald the other day and saw a local condo developer quoted. His words have been on my mind ever since. He said, “Miami is the sweetheart of the world. Everyone wants a place here.”
I couldn’t agree more. Miami has always attracted investors from Brazil, Argentina, Venezuela and Mexico. But now, I’m seeing almost as many buyers from Russia, England, France and Canada, among other places. I’ve even been talking with realtors in Hong Kong who say they have Chinese buyers with their eyes set on Miami.
South Florida continues to be a magnet for foreign wealth looking for a safe haven from political and economic instability in Latin America and elsewhere. It’s also become a place where owning a luxury condo is affordable when compared to properties at home.
Foreign buyers combined with U.S. buyers have revived Miami’s residential real estate market. It’s been gaining steam over the past three years. And developers are rising to the occasion.
Let me give you a few numbers. In the eastern swath of Miami-Dade County where the boom is concentrated, 40 condo projects with 6,781 units are under construction, 56 others with 10,807 units are planned, with approvals to go forward, and 36 more projects with more than 8,300 units have been proposed at early stages. What’s most amazing is that these projects are selling out, most before construction has even begun!
So, now that I’ve updated you on the lay of the land, let me tell you about a new Miami residential property that’s just been announced. This one is both a condo and condo-hotel. And yes, its units can be reserved for purchase in this pre-construction phase. Read on for details.
Hyde Midtown
Hyde Midtown will be a mixed-use property located in the popular Midtown neighborhood of Miami. A 31-story tower, it will have 397 luxury condominium residences and 60 designer suite condo hotel units.
The condo hotel units will be fully furnished and available for daily rental with management by SBE Hotels. Owners will be able to use their units when they wish and receive rental revenue when they’re not there, helping to offset the costs of ownership.

Midtown Miami, Close to Everything
Located in Midtown Miami, Hyde Midtown will be just 10 minutes from Miami Beach, downtown Miami, the Wynwood Arts District, Miami International Airport, The Performing Arts Center, American Airlines Arena (home of The Heat), and much more. Premium retail shopping and upscale restaurants are also minutes away.
Neighboring Hyde Midtown is the Miami Design District, which is well into a $312 million renovation and expansion as it becomes home to some of the biggest names in fashion retail as well as an array of fine dining establishments.
A Quality Development Team
This 372-foot tall Hyde Midtown tower is being developed by The Related Group and Dezer Development, both well-respected South Florida builders.
The design of Hyde Midtown is by Arquitectonica, South Florida’s preeminent architectural firm. The Rockwell Group, known for its fresh, sophisticated take on chic urban living, is the interior designer.
Pre-construction Pricing
Construction on Hyde Midtown is expected to begin in early 2015 and be complete by summer 2017. However, as of August 2014, condos can be reserved with a 10% deposit.
Choose a condominium residence from one-, two- and three-bedroom floor plans, ranging in size from 556 sq. ft. to 1,595 sq. ft. Prices average $500 per sq. ft. and range from $278,000 to $797,500. Floor plans and the exact sizes of the condo hotel units have not yet been confirmed. However, you can expect the units to be priced higher than $500 per sq. ft. as they’ll be provided completely furnished.

Miami on the Rebound
As I mentioned early on, Miami has seen extraordinary growth in the past two years. Along with that growth has come significant appreciation. The costs of land and construction in Miami have increased, and so have the prices for condo units. We expect this trend to continue, as it shows no signs of letting up.
A typical project in the downtown Brickell area that would have sold at $400 a square foot in 2012 is going for more than $600 a square foot today. Exclusive projects in South Beach fetch well over $2,000 a square foot. But there is still ample room for growth.
If you’re wondering how this condo construction cycle in Miami is different from the last, the biggest change is the deposits required. Unit buyers are putting up 50% of the purchase price in stages during construction, funding most of the hard construction costs for developers.
That level of commitment from buyers (which contrasts with the 20% down payments that were typical the last time) dramatically increases the likelihood that buyers will close on contracts when their buildings are complete. In other words, this condo cycle won’t be a repeat of the last downturn in the market when buyers skipped out on their contracts — not as long as the big deposits are required.
As always, thank you for your interest in my real estate musings and the properties we showcase here at Condo Hotel Center.
