The flexibility to work remotely, along with the shift to kids attending school virtually, has allowed people to test drive living in South Florida. Many started off renting, and decided to stay permanently. "The majority of people are looking for a very similar type of home and existing inventory of waterfront homes is limited," said Kleer. "We specialize in waterfront properties and our buyers want to live somewhere with plenty of outdoor space to stay safe and socially distanced. A pool and dedicated home office is now highly desired, and other luxury amenities including in-home gyms, summer kitchens and outdoor entertainment spaces are most important to buyers." With winter on the way, agents expect to see a continued surge in demand from those seeking shelter from the cold and a potential spike in COVID cases during flu season. "Miami Beach is the new Hamptons," said Minette Schwartz with The Schwartz team at Compass. "New Yorkers want a place where they can escape, especially during the winter. More and more people are choosing a change of scenery." According to Schwartz, while single-family homes are in highest demand, interest in the condo market remains strong, with a shift in demand for rentals and sales in lower density buildings. 3630 N.
