Been downtown lately? It’s a mass of construction cranes. Condo towers are going up all over the place from Miami Beach to Hollywood. I’ve been tracking the 35 condo projects currently under construction in Miami-Dade County. Three of them are now completed towers*. Most of these are available for pre-sale, meaning you can place a […]
