Ten Museum Park Revisited

March 7, 2008

Ten Museum Park was one of the first major condo buildings in Miami to hit the market within the past year. Closings began at Ten Museum Park, almost nine months ago, on June 14, 2007. I thought this would be a great opportunity to revisit Ten Museum Park to see what type of activity its seen since then.

As of today, according to public records, Ten Museum Park has been able to close exactly 75 percent, or 150, of its 200 total units since closings began in June 2007. It’s been a long and winding road to reach 150 closed units. I wonder how long it will take to close out the last 50.

Let’s take a look at the active listings for sale at Ten Museum Park. There are currently 63 active listings in the building at this time.

• 1 Bedroom units (868 square feet)
  • 05 line (9 listings) – $355,000-$475,000
  • 08 line (10 listings) – $358,000-$560,000
• 2 Bedroom units (1,239 square feet)
  • 06 line (9 listings) – $458,000-$680,000
  • 07 line (6 listings) – $440,000-$690,000
• 2 Bedroom units (1,949 square feet)
  • 02 line (8 listings) – $785,000-$1,495,000
  • 03 line (7 listings) – $798,000-$995,000
• 2 Bedroom units (1,906 square feet)
  • 01 line (6 listings) – $895,000-$1,350,000
  • 04 line (6 listings) – $895,000-$1,385,000
• 4 Bedroom units (4,500 square feet)
  • Penthouses (2 listings) – $3,200,000-$3,400,000

There hasn’t been much resale activity since Ten Museum Park began closings. There’s been a total of 3 closed sales in the MLS since that time.

• Unit 1105 sold for $295,000 on January 3, 2008
• Unit 3408 sold for $350,000 on January 25, 2008
• Penthouse 4203, with 4,000 square feet, sold for $2,200,000 on January 31, 2008

Activity seems to have picked up a little, however, as there are currently 4 pending sales at Ten Museum Park.

• Unit 1107 was listed for $455,000 and went pending on January 30, 2008
• Unit 3706 was listed for $475,000 and went pending on February 2, 2008

• Unit 1901 was listed for $975,000 and went pending on February 2, 2008

I haven’t been to Ten Museum Park within the past three weeks but I have heard that the fitness center is finally under way. I’ve also heard that work has begun on the Clinique La Prairie Spa and that it should be completed in about six months. I think everyone would agree that these amenities are long overdue. I know of 3 buyers who have been patiently waiting for this work to get done. I’m sure there are many other buyers patiently waiting as well.
