Jun 29, 2023

Miami continues to be a booming market because the fundamental reasons to choose a Miami relocation that existed between 2020 and 2022 are still in place today.

Cusack recently published a blog article entitled “Why Miami is Still Booming”. It presents a summary of a recent article in the Business Insider that presents a detailed analysis of how much high-income earners in New York, Chicago, and San Francisco would save monthly by moving to the Miami area. The blog article can be found here: Miami is Still Booming.

“As realtors, we are always asked when this boom is going to abate and, while we have seen some slower times, such as the last quarter of 2022, it does not seem as though the market is going to drop off any time soon,” said Cusack.

As bustling metropolises such as New York, Chicago, and San Francisco continue to grapple with soaring costs of living, an increasing number of high-income earners are discovering the allure of Miami. This vibrant city, known for its stunning homes, sunny climate, beautiful beaches, and diverse cultural scene, offers a host of advantages that make it an appealing destination for those seeking a lower cost of living and a higher quality of life.

This article delves into the six main reasons why Miami continues to be a magnet for high-income individuals from major cities across the United States:

1. Affordability:

Miami's affordability is a compelling factor drawing high-income earners away from cities where the cost of living can be exorbitant. While New York and San Francisco are notorious for their high housing costs, Miami boasts a comparatively lower cost of living across the board. From housing to groceries and entertainment, residents can enjoy a more affordable lifestyle without sacrificing quality.

Miami’s cost of living is 23% higher than the American average, which compares very favorably to New York's 137% and San Francisco's 83%.

2. Tax Benefits:

Miami's advantageous tax climate is another major incentive for high-income earners. Florida does not impose a state income tax, meaning individuals can retain a larger portion of their earnings. For those coming from states with high-income tax rates, Miami's tax-friendly environment can result in substantial savings and increased financial flexibility.

3. Real Estate Opportunities:

Miami's booming real estate market presents lucrative opportunities for high-income individuals seeking to invest in properties. With a diverse range of neighborhoods and property types, Miami offers options to suit various preferences, whether it's a luxurious beachfront condo, a trendy downtown loft, or a spacious suburban home.

Additionally, compared to cities like New York and San Francisco, Miami's real estate prices can be considerably more affordable, providing a chance for investors to maximize their returns.

4. Lifestyle and Cultural Richness:

Beyond the financial advantages, Miami is renowned for its vibrant lifestyle and multicultural ambiance. The city's diverse population creates a unique fusion of cultures, resulting in an eclectic culinary scene, exciting nightlife, and a wealth of cultural events and festivals. High-income earners seeking a vibrant social life, world-class entertainment, and a diverse community will find Miami a solid match.

5. Climate and Outdoor Recreation:

Miami's tropical climate is a coveted asset, especially for those looking to escape harsh winters or unpredictable weather patterns. The year-round warm weather enables residents to engage in outdoor activities like boating, golfing, and water sports throughout the year. The city's stunning beaches provide a relaxing backdrop, offering an ideal environment for leisure and relaxation.

6. Business and Entrepreneurial Opportunities:

Miami has transformed into a thriving hub for startups, entrepreneurs, and innovative businesses. The city's strategic location as a gateway to Latin America and the Caribbean, coupled with its favorable business environment, has attracted a growing number of businesses and investment opportunities. High-income earners with entrepreneurial aspirations or an interest in business expansion can take advantage of Miami's supportive ecosystem.

How much sex should a couple have? Focus on quality over quantity, experts say

Recently, an acquaintance told me about her brother’s marriage break-up. “They had sex once in eight years,” she said – as if that were the sole reason. It would not have been: the couple’s collapsing relationship was the reason. The absence of sex – except for that single occasion in eight years – was a symptom that likely made it worse. It raises the question, though: is there a sweet spot for sex in a relationship? How many times a week or a month should we be “doing it” to keep a...

MakatiMed adds Ultherapy Prime to its wellness roster

Makati Medical Center’s Skin and Laser Hub is adding Ultherapy Prime to its aesthetic services, the latest evolution of its noninvasive lifting technology, offering patients a personalized approach to skin tightening. Launched Sept. 10 at the MakatiMed WellnessHub, the new treatment builds on the hospital’s longstanding experience in laser and aesthetic medicine. The launch brought together members of the medical community and guests, with actress and former Miss World Megan Young and actor, entrepreneur and content creator Mikael Daez introduced as Ultherapy Prime ambassadors. For Dr. Ma. Lourdes Aragon de Veyra, head of the Skin and Laser Hub, the arrival of Ultherapy Prime represents another step in the development of ultrasound technology, which has been used in medicine for decades. De Veyra traced ultrasound’s history from its early use in medical imaging to applications that harnessed its biological effects. “In 2000, they started harnessing the potential of this ultrasound by actually causing it to be micro-focused. With the use of this micro-focused ultrasound, it has been used to actually tighten the skin to create a thermal damage to the skin so that it can cause healing. With healing comes the formation of new collagen tissues and renewal of the cells,” De Veyra said. The treatment targets the subdermis and SMAS, or superficial muscular aponeurotic system, while delivering energy at targeted depths. She said the technology can reach temperatures of about 60 to 70 degrees without damaging the surface of the skin. Still themselves While technological advancement is central to Ultherapy Prime, De Veyra said the objective of aesthetic treatment should remain grounded in helping patients look like themselves. “We’ve talked about the science, the technology, and the precision behind Ultherapy Prime. Ultimately, people want the treatment where they will still look like themselves and not look like somebody else,” she said. She said responsible aesthetic care should focus on preserving a patient’s individuality rather than creating a dramatically different appearance. “The goal of responsible doctors is to make our patients feel confident about how they are, how they look. You can probably refine it a little bit, but in the end, our goal is to make our patients flaunt their uniqueness, how they look but with la little twitch. That’s it,” De Veyra said. Endorses on self care Celebrity couple Young and Daez brought a personal perspective to the launch as the new ambassadors of Ultherapy Prime. For Young, beauty has always been closely associated with character and confidence. The former Miss World, who won the title in 2013, said her perspective has remained consistent through the years. “I guess throughout the years, even when I was younger, beauty comes from within. Once you have that beautiful personality or that beautiful heart, then of course, that shines outward,” Young said. She said her view of beauty has evolved around maintaining her appearance while keeping her skincare routine manageable. Daez said he and Young approach self-care as something that encompasses more than physical appearance. “Megan and I have always had this mindset of taking care of ourselves holistically, so emotionally, physically. It’s also about taking care of the way that we look,” Daez said. “Part of that is also feeling good and looking as great as you can. So that’s why we’re here,” he added. The couple also shared how they came to try Ultherapy. Daez admitted that he was the one who initially suggested exploring the treatment. “I’m also the one always looking out. What are the things that we can do? I mean, working out, running, getting good sleep,” Daez said. “We came across Ulthera and we decided to ask about it. We felt that it fit what we wanted so we tried it out,” he added. With Ultherapy Prime now part of its aesthetic offerings, MakatiMed’s Skin and Laser Hub continues to combine medical innovation with patient-centered care, giving patients another option for achieving subtle lifting and tightening without surgery.

Stand out and proud in customized denim

Customizing a garment or any pre-made item can be as simple as using a waterproof marker to write one’s name or initials on it. It’s a way to stand out from the crowd even if doing so might come across as rebellious, defiant. At the newly opened Levi’s store in Greenbelt 5, customization gives customers a creative way to express themselves. This is instantly apparent upon entering as the penned-in work area, Levi’s Tailor Shop, is positioned at the middle of the store. “This flagship store represents a major milestone for the brand as it is the first with this concept in the region, and only the second in Asia after the one in Sapporo, Japan,” said Louella Scott, general manager of Vogue Concepts. As the distributor’s largest store, it carries many of the denim brand’s styles including the more premium ones. “We have the ‘Made in Japan’ Blue Tab line as well as Levi’s Vintage Clothing. There are also shrink-to-fit options that conform to the wearer’s body after soaking, ensuring a truly personalized fit,” Scott said. The literal core of the store, however, is the Levi’s Tailor Shop, where customers can have their denim customized to their specifications. A range of patches is available, including site-specific designs such as a jeepney with a Greenbelt Makati signboard, the tree-lined corner of De la Rosa and Legazpi streets, and a scene inspired by one of the city’s Sunday markets. There are other ways to personalize one’s denim at the store including distressing certain portions of the fabric. “We offer embroidery services and even paint some pieces by hand,” Scott said. The store also has an ace up its denim sleeve in master tailor Tristan Rimorin, who is recognized for his artistry in customization. For him, customizing clothing goes beyond embellishment. “We do a lot of garment resizing such as reshaping a loose-fitting 578 to a slim 511 while preserving the seams and structural balance,” Rimorin said. He and another tailor focus on tapering and managing waistlines to maintain comfort without altering essential proportions. This approach is especially valuable for clients who want to update well-loved garments for a more modern fit. “Our primary goal is to provide solutions for customers, including those who have owned items for many years but have outgrown them,” Rimorin said. Rimorin also gets to indulge in and show off his creative side with clients who want one-of-a-kind items. “I’ve fused two denim pieces into one, and combined patches and distressing for a really well-worn pair of jeans. I also worked with a painter on a denim jacket that features a winged angel with the wings made of distressed denim fabric,” Rimorin said. When he used to place some of the items he had worked with on display, people would come and in and offer to buy them. Rimorin had to tell them that these were already owned by clients who had come to him for customization. “I add that they can purchase new items at the store and that I can work with them on customizing the pieces for a fee,” he said.
