Active listings in the tricounty region of Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach have fallen to less than 23,625 units from a level closer to 26,000 just months earlier, yet the region still carries nearly 11 months of supply, a level the hosts classify as an elevated Buyers Market.The hosts also revisit the chaotic evacuation of the FIFA World Cup Fan Fest at Bayside Marketplace in Greater Downtown Miami during a lightning warning, a scene Huertas witnessed firsthand amid the Mexico vs. England match, as an example of how the World Cup consumed attention that developers had hoped would flow toward condo showrooms.The episode also previews the Summer Buying Season backdrop taking shape headed into August, when the elimination of the Fannie Mae limited review for condo mortgage applications is expected to compound an already soft market.Click play above to watch the analysis, and use the timestamped timeline and the Top 10 Takeaways below to navigate the program on demand.
