North Beach and Mid Beach are gaining increasing attention from both domestic and international investors—thanks to strong fundamentals, beachfront locations, and flexibility for short- and long-term rentals. As these areas continue to evolve, they offer a compelling alternative to more established markets like Brickell or Downtown Miami, particularly for investors looking to diversify their portfolios.
Inventory & Supply
As of now, North Beach – Mid Beach has 7.5 months of inventory, a level that reflects a relatively balanced marketwith healthy sales activity and consistent absorption. Compared to markets like Brickell or Downtown, this lower inventory suggests active buyer demand, especially for well-positioned units with flexible rental models and strong differentiation.
Price Per Square Foot & Sales Volume
One of the most notable indicators from Q2 2025 is the 30% increase in price per square foot, which reached $1,405/SqFt. This sharp rise is driven by a combination of factors:
- The delivery of high-end waterfront projects
- Growing demand for investment properties suitable for short-term rentals
- Prime positioning near Surfside, Bal Harbour, and other upscale retail corridors
Sales volume also posted a more moderate 4.7% increase compared to the same period in 2024—suggesting that, despite rising prices, the market continues to attract buyers looking for appreciation potential and strong returns.
Days on Market
The average days on market decreased by 5%, pointing to a steady pace of transactions. Properties that offer both strong locations and rental flexibility are moving faster, a clear sign of buyer confidence and market strength.
Today, North Beach and Mid Beach represent two of the most dynamic and promising markets in the Miami Beach area. With limited inventory, rising prices, and active interest from U.S. and Latin American investors, these neighborhoods offer unique opportunities—whether for first-time buyers or sophisticated investors.
