Miami's real estate scene is draws interest from investors, residents, and tourists alike. But there's a new wrinkle in the market: short-term rentals. In this blog, we'll go  into why these rentals are causing headaches for Miami's housing market and what it means for folks looking for a place to live or invest.

Short-Term Rentals and Housing Availability

A big issue with short-term rentals is they eat into the pool of homes available for long-term living. Places that could be permanent homes get snapped up for vacation stays instead. This makes it even harder for locals to find a place they can afford and count on for the long haul.

Affordability Squeeze

All those short-term rentals drive up prices and rents for regular folks trying to find a place to live in Miami. With fewer homes available for permanent living, the demand goes up, and so do the costs. This hits hardest in neighborhoods everyone wants to live in, especially along the waterfront.

Neighborhood Upheaval
Short-term rentals can really shake up a neighborhood. They bring in a revolving door of visitors, noise, and parking headaches that can fray the fabric of a community. It's a tough balance between catering to tourists and keeping the peace for the folks who call Miami home.

Regulatory Hurdles

Miami's trying to figure out how to deal with short-term rentals, but it's no easy task. Some places have rules in place, but making sure everyone follows them can be a challenge. Leaders need to strike a balance between the money tourism brings in and keeping housing affordable and neighborhoods livable.

Investor Frenzy
The promise of big bucks from short-term rentals has investors flocking to Miami's real estate market. But all that buying and renting can drive prices up even more, making it tough for regular folks to buy or rent a home in their own city.

In the end, short-term rentals might seem like a win for property owners and tourists, but they're shaking up Miami's housing scene in ways that have lasting effects. Whether you're looking for a place to live or invest, it's essential to understand the impact these rentals are having on the city.

~ Willy and Gloria P.

Liz was the listing agent for a Miami property I called on and made an appointment to see . That's how it all started.I wasn't working with any agent and I told Liz I didn't want to commit to anyone. She stated she understood, nevertheless, she was relentless in keeping in touch with me. Finally, in one of her phone calls, Liz asked me if she was working hard to get my business ? I said yes, of course. Then she stated, "Imagine, what I am capable of doing in finding and negotiating for you in a tough and competitive Miami market?". That clinched it !

We trusted her strategy and ended up buying the property that we were initially turned down on. You can say Liz turned that No into a Yes for less money! She is relentless. Thank you, Liz, you are a hard worker, trustworthy, on top of your game and simply a pleasure to team up with you

 

~ Alex Y.

As a business man, one of the things that impressed me about Liz is is her negotiation skills, patience and cool under pressure. She looks for a win-win even though at times we were just being one sided. Liz reminded us it's a sellers' market with properties selling quickly at or little above asking price in the area we wanted to buy.Whatever we weren't familiar with, Liz simplified it so we felt comfortable and understood the transaction.

 

~ Vincent S.

"...One of her best qualities is her ability to stand back, listen to your needs, present you all the alternatives and let you make the original decisions. She is not assertive with her opinion but when she says you better listen because it will be in your own best interest..."

Ms Liz Keneally was a angel sent. I was going through personal hardship. And having a hard time not only selling The property but with the result of impending foreclosure. Which at the time was a very difficult time in my life. And she came along. And got a contract within a week. And I have nothing but gratitude towards her and her team. That treated me and my children like family.

Liz has been a wonderful real estate agent for us. She is an excellent communicator, and communicates in a very timely manner. Liz provided easy to understand comparisons when we had multiple offers for the property that we were selling. Liz makes sure that all the details are taken care of, and most importantly perseveres in resolving the many issues that arise in a real estate transaction. We have been extremely happy with the work that Liz has done for us. We would highly recommend her for anyone who is seeking to sell or buy property.
