Sunday Outdoors At The Redland Riding Academy

Mario AvalosLeave a comment


Two thumbs up for the Redland Riding Academy.  So my wife and I wake up on a Sunday morning and decide to take our 3-year old out to the open. So I suggest to get him on a horse?

My wife then reminds me that our son, Jake, is 3 years old. So I counter back…lets get him on a pony.  Score!

So we Google a few places and wala….Redland Riding Academy comes up.  We spoke to a kind lady to confirm time and price. Everything worked out way too smooth. They were ready for my son on demand and for only $20 per 20 minutes. You can’t beat that.

In addition, they gave us animal feed for the pigs, ducks, etc.  Talk about bang for buck. Strongly recommend this place.

Warning: have a toddler that’s always going at 100 miles per hour like mine and will run fearlessly towards anything? Lookout for animal poop.  What the heck. It’s a farm right. You can’t complain.

Single Family Prices Flat; Condo-Townhouses Spike

Mario AvalosLeave a comment

Overall, the single family residence market reflects a flat trend in both price appreciation and number of closings during the last four months (see below graph). These figures are expected to continue for the remainder of 2014 and well into 2015.

Why is this happening? Home values and borrower-income are reaching equilibrium.  In other words, consumers are buying at maximum home price based on their salary or comfort level.  Among other factors, for home values to go up, take-home-pay must increase.  Until then, unless home inventory or interest rates significantly drop, prices should remain flat.

trend sfr

With the exception of July, condos and townhouses are following the same pattern as single family residences (see below graph). This spike is July may be a result of home buyers opting not to purchase single family units, and rather go for the more affordable condo/townhome.

Above and below graphs contain combined pricing and volume data for the following cities: Coconut Grove, Coral Gables, Cutler Bay, Kendall, Palmetto Bay, Pinecrest, South Miami, Sweetwater, The Roads, West Miami and Westchester.
