Introduction
Hedge Funds moving to Miami have become a hot topic of conversation over the last two years. Ken Griffin announced his HQ move to Miami on the 13th of July, and the real estate community was really excited. The mass migration of staff not only from Citadel but also other financial groups to follow suit begs the conversation of where these individuals and families will buy.
Whether you are an owner wondering if this migration will benefit your home value or a professional moving into town: this article is for you, the customer. Analytical models and searching for properties are at the forefront of our minds. The Siddons Group is considered one of the most analytical groups in Miami. We work hard to be a source of info for those who speak the language of numbers.
Where should you live if you work for a hedge fund?
Since I am a realtor, I can confess that I have a vested interest in writing this article. This article is for those who either work for a hedge fund or are impacted by the arrival of hedge funds.
Given that the focus of Hedge Funds is around the neighborhood of Brickell, we have detailed homes for sale that are commutable to and around Brickell. For those who do not want to commute but wish to live in Brickell, we have detailed the best condos. At DSG we aim to provide you with access to the best product and the best place to search for it!
Hedge Funds relocating to Miami have noticed that if left to choose, employees prefer to live in Miami
The greener the area, the closer to Brickell’s financial center.
Brickell – The Top Neighborhood choice for Hedge Funds
The majority of hedge funds will be in Brickell. Miami’s financial center and most are similar to the dense city core of NYC. Demand for Brickell office space is rising. Brickell’s newest luxury office building; 830 Brickell, which is still under construction (as of Oct 2021) is seeing a very high demand for space. Thomas Bravo signed a lease to occupy the top two floors of the 55-story tower, as did Citadel and Canadian asset and wealth management firm CI Financial.
The Best Neighborhood if You Prefer Single-Family Home Living
If you are moving here with your family, you probably want to live in the area around Miami’s best private schools: Coral Gables, Coconut Grove, Ponce Davis, and North Pinecrest. The above-mentioned areas represent Miami’s core for single-family living, offering high-end real estate and a steady annual appreciation. Other really desired areas for single-family homes are Miami Beach and Key Biscayne.
Coconut Grove
Coconut Grove is synonymous with understated luxury. One of the mainland’s most desired and exclusive neighborhoods, which has stayed surprisingly low-key. The area is very much in demand as it is safe, lush, and located near many of Miami’s most prestigious schools. Coconut Grove is adjacent to Brickell and offers many gated communities along Biscayne Bay.Search directly for Coconut Grove homes for sale
Coral Gables
Coral Gables is also oneof themost desired areas of Miami to live in. It is safe, centrally located, and green and offers many golf courses. Most importantly, it is home or close to Miami’s best private schools. An extremely large neighborhood and offers a wide range of properties.

Miami Economics and the Best Real Estate Investment options.
A market driven by a need rather than a want is a market that will not suffer if demand drops or the economy suffers. Discretionary Markets tend to be saturated with rentals. These properties are often off-loaded once landlords need extra cash flow.
Miami’s primary markets as Coral Gables, Pinecrest, Coconut Grove (very small), High Pines, and Ponce Davis are limited to their geographic boundaries. The supply of land is limited, and the neighborhoods are landlocked. This factor makes it nearly impossible to “overload” supply by way of the new product, often seen historically in our condo market.
We have been tracking the Housing and Condo market for over 12 years. Our software has plotted the entire economic cycles across every neighborhood price point, and we have become the experts on pattern recognition.
It is not as simple anymore to say one neighborhood will go up or go down. Markets are far more granular. In the same way, buying an index can expose risk as harder to analyze, so it is harder to do with real estate. We focus on granular analysis, which is why we cover the best Condos and sub-markets with quality reports and cherry-picked advice.
Introducing “CONDO GEEKS”: The most advanced analytics tool ever created for the Miami Condo Market
Condo Geeks is a brand new and sophisticated tool and fundamentally feels like a Bloomberg terminal for real estate. Software is a tool empowering clients with the ability to analyze entire neighborhoods, individual condos, or a selection of condos. It has the power to look at the performance of a neighborhood/condo over time (amount of sales, prices per SF, discounts given, and days for sale on the market) or to compare neighborhoods/condos. Nothing like it exists in the market today, and it really is the best tool for consumers to see what the real estate market is doing.
