What to Look for in an Investment Property in South Florida

Location, location, location, residential and even waterfront. Those are the key elements to look for when you’re choosing investment real estate properties in South Florida.

Whether it’s newer or updated condos, updated one-story villas, townhouses, single-family homes or even waterfront mansions, you’ll have your pick according to your investment budget. Lang Realty has offices and agents that know each real estate market. That includes desirable suburban locations with new and existing private/gated communities with amenities that allow investment buyers and rentals. Some do.   

If you’re condo shopping, your agent will help you identify newer buildings in demand from new residents or longtime owners downsizing from single-family homes. That’s a lifestyle change here, too. So, if you’re making a checklist for buying a condo in South Florida, you can rely on Lang Realty to steer you in the right direction. That’s where waterfront properties come in. Some new and existing condos even come with their own slip, dock or marina.    

Why invest in South Florida Real Estate?

There’s no downside to doing it. “Florida’s more populous metro areas ranked among the nation’s top 10 in numeric population gains,” according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Residents continue to flock to Florida, not only to escape the winters, but for tax advantages and the 24/7 lifestyle. The only thing that has changed is that now more families are moving here, not just retirees. That demand ensures a return on your investment. And with a crunch of real estate inventory, you may be advised by your Lang Realty agent to prequalify so you can move to closing quickly.
