In Surfside, the difference between “rare” and “unrepeatable” can be measured in unit count, design intent, and how a building handles daily life on the ocean.

South Florida’s Luxury Real Estate Auctions: The New Playbook for Trophy Assets

Ultra-luxury auctions are no longer a niche tactic in South Florida. From record-setting estate sales to high-profile development-site offerings, the format is increasingly used to compress timelines, widen global reach, and force price discovery when traditional marketing stalls.
