A waterfront home on Miami Beach’s Venetian Islands and a condo at the Bath Club in Miami Beach led luxury residential contracts signed last week in Miami-Dade County, according to a recent report from Eklund-Gomes.
Between September 8 and September 14, eight contracts were signed for properties listed at $4 million or more. These included six single-family homes and two condos, with a total asking dollar volume of $53.4 million. On average, the properties spent 121 days on the market before going under contract.
The number of new luxury listings increased during the same period, with 42 properties added to the market. This brought the total number of active luxury listings in Miami-Dade County to 1,163.
The priciest deal involved a waterfront home at 315 East Rivo Alto Drive on the Venetian Islands. The property is listed for $15.3 million and features five bedrooms and five-and-a-half bathrooms across 4,387 square feet. Douglas Elliman’s Dina Goldentayer represents the seller, while Joel Lusky of The Brokerage South Florida is representing the buyer. Ownership records show that Tom Mooser owns the property through a company; he previously purchased it in 2021 for $8 million and is known as owner of La Vaquita Flea Market in Pendergrass, Georgia.
For condos, Unit 1404 at the Bath Club at 5959 Collins Avenue was the most expensive to go under contract last week with an asking price of $5.9 million—or about $1,482 per square foot. The four-bedroom unit is owned by a company managed by Marcelo Campos Onetto, vice chairman of São Martinho, a Brazilian sugar conglomerate. Matias and Christina Alem of BRG International have the listing.
Last week’s activity was lower than the previous week when buyers signed contracts for 15 properties totaling $114.2 million in asking prices.
By comparison, New York saw buyers sign contracts for 11 homes last week with combined asking prices reaching $70.3 million; those homes typically spent about 246 days on market.
