The FIFA World Cup 2026 is being used to attract international buyers, particularly from Latin America, at a time when the residential real estate market is beginning to slow. While the World Cup itself is not creating a surge in investment, brokers say it is helping them to showcase Miami.
Prosperity has deepened affordability challenges for many longtime Miami residents. According to a study, half households spend more than 30% of their income on housing, a common benchmark for financial strain. The county also faces a shortage of more than 90,000 affordable rental units for lower- and moderate-income households.
Coconut Grove offers something many luxury enclaves cannot: discretion. Hidden behind lush landscaping and quiet streets, the neighborhood allows billionaires and high-profile residents to remain close to Miami’s booming financial and cultural centers while maintaining a rare sense of privacy and community.
Local agents say a sharp rise in buyer activity during the first quarter has fueled significant gains in both contracts and closings, signaling renewed confidence in the high-end coastal market. Activity has been broad-based, with properties ranging from modest condominiums to luxury homes changing hands.

The company, Iru—an IT security and management platform formerly known as Kandji—leased approximately 78,000 square feet at 3390 Mary Street and an additional 14,000 square feet at 2901 Florida Avenue. Both properties are part of the Mayfair in the Grove mixed-use complex. South Florida’s office market continues to gain momentum as new companies enter the region.
While the Treasure Coast continues to attract attention for its coastal appeal and steady population growth, successful investing in this market requires a clear understanding of the local variables that influence returns, risk, and long-term performance.
Expected to begin within the next few weeks, the aging property will be transformed into a 250,000-square-foot open-air retail center. The project is expected to be completed between 2027 and 2028.
