It seems there’s a resurgence of movement in the United States. The pandemic has underlined the fact that life outside of major hubs such as San Francisco, California can still be fruitful. After a year of remote working, it seems that migration into new states and cities across the US is on the rise and is host to some of the most luxury Real Estate in Miami.

Miami has become a staple of conversation when discussions about moving away from the west coast hubs and for good reason. Hot weather all year round, some of the world’s best beaches, bars, transport links, and business hubs, we can see why some of the wealthiest people in the states are moving completely or partly across the country to this tropical paradise!

Why is everyone moving to Miami?

Aside from political reasons (state regulations, laws, and taxes – which is for another article), there are tons of reasons. Let’s start with the financial. The cost of living in Miami is much cheaper, everything from eating out, to groceries and childcare. From a tax perspective, Miami trumps California’s growing taxation policies and is a low tax haven at the state level, businesses and individuals pay no personal income taxes.

According to BeaconCouncil, Florida has a comparatively low corporate income tax rate of 5.5 percent, with no inventory tax, no unitary tax, and several sales tax exemptions.

So as you can see, many reasons to move across the country. From a business perspective, Miami is on ET so doing business with the UK and the majority of Western Europe, is much easier with a -4/-5 hour time difference vs the west coast of -7/-8 hours. 

And the weather, obviously the weather.

Some of the best luxury real estate in Miami

When researching this piece, looking at properties across the world-famous communities such as Allison Island, Brickell Key, Coconut Grove, Gables, and Palm Island (which brought back memories of playing GTA Vice City) – it was evident that properties across the magic city are just as luxurious and grandiose as on the west coast and in this article, I’m going to showcase a few of my favorites. As always, I’ve included links to the relevant realtors where you can learn more if interested. Here are my favorites so far in 2021!
