A changing of the guard
Home prices in the North Miami neighborhood of Biscayne Highlands have been climbing in recent years, so much so that taxes and the cost of living are prompted many of this community’s old guard to sell and look for more affordable housing, says Juan Urbina, a broker associate with United Realty Group Inc., who has lived and worked in the neighborhood for many years and has been selling real estate in the area since 2010. “Historically, this has been a Haitian community with businesses and restaurants that support it,” he says. “But with so much demand for housing in South Florida, the neighborhood has started attracting buyers from across the region.” Upscale supermarkets and big-box stores have opened along Biscayne Boulevard, and hip new social outlets like NoMi Village have sprung up overnight. “North Miami is changing, and homes are selling quickly,” Urbina says.

Homes and homeowners moving upward
Most homes in Biscayne Highlands are single-family, ranch-style houses built in the 1950s that list for between $500,000 and $800,000. Many have a classic midcentury modern design, sometimes updated with high-end interiors and finishes, fenced backyards and large swimming pools. Mature trees and palms often grace the front yards of these simple dwellings. “A few years ago, the same properties would have listed for half their value today,” Urbina says, which is why many older homeowners have been selling and moving to other Florida localities or out of state where the cost of living is lower. “Many are workforce residents who have limited incomes. New homeowners are attracted to the home prices, and they value the upscale amenities.”
