Owning a waterfront home in South Florida sounds like pure bliss — sunsets on the dock, sipping coffee while the ocean breeze rolls in, and a boat parked right in your backyard. But here’s the catch: the dream can come with a few ugly truths no one really talks about.
In this episode, I reveal the 8 things every buyer should know before they buy a waterfront home in Miami, Fort Lauderdale, or Palm Beach.
We’ll talk about:

• Why that “bargain” waterfront listing may actually be a money pit.

• How your home’s orientation (yes, the direction it faces!) can make or break your comfort.

• Insurance premiums that skyrocket faster than Miami condo prices.

• The hidden realities of boat ownership: canal depth, dock placement, and bridges that might trap you in.

• Privacy concerns and constant boat traffic that can turn “serene” into stressful.

• The neighborhoods that get it right — and the ones you should think twice about.

If you’ve ever dreamed of waterfront living, this episode will give you the reality check (and the insider roadmap) you need before diving in.
If you ever want to buy or sell a property anywhere in the world, our team would be honored to help get you to your next destination.
Until next time, stay curious, stay hungry, and as always… stay ALL IN!
