Comparing Fisher Island Condos with other luxury condo markets in Miami

Since these Fisher Island condos are high-end luxury condos in a solely luxury market we decided to compare the Fisher Island Condos with luxury condos in South of Fifth and Key Biscayne.

Key Biscayne is an island similar to Fisher Island with high-end real estate and self sufficiency. Can you completely compare Key Biscayne to Fisher Island? No, because you don’t need an invitation to enter the island and the real estate options are more diverse with houses and condos catering to a broader variety of people. Key Biscayne, specifically The Grand Bay, is the closest comparison we can get to the security levels and exclusivity of Fisher Island.

South of Fifth, although not gated or private, is a playground to the rich and famous and offers upscale living with all the conveniences that come with it. The Condos here are Miami’s most exclusive and have shown great performance year after year.
