Why Villa Regina Brickell is a good investment property from my perspective:
A real estate investment or purchase decision should be approached as if one is to buy/invest in a stock. The investors should view the Condominium as a business, carefully understanding how this business is growing, how the business is operated and who operates the business on a day-to-day basis.
- Villa Regina is an extremely & very well maintained and managed Brickell Condominium. All the common areas, including the residential hallways and building amenities are in great condition.
- The entire building is being repainted, to restore to its original luster
- All the non-balcony & common area windows will be upgraded to impact glass in the next 6 months; Owners will be also be given an option to change their balconysliding door & windows to impact glass too

- A direct bay view 6,000 Sq.ft ballroom/party room that accommodates up to 125 people, will also soon be updated for high impact glass

- The building also offers a recently constructed children’s playroom, for the growing number of families in Villa Regina
- Completion of the composite-building & art restoration work is expected to be completed early in 2015
- Villa Regina offers deeded private marina boat slips
- Villa Regina is a landmark within the Brickell community and is easily recognizable from all surrounding vantage points, due to its unique pallet of the entire color spectrum. Villa Regina is also considered a very large piece of artwork and painted by sculptor and experimental artist, “Agam”, best known for his contributions to optical and kinetic art.
- Villa Regina offers the ideal environment for all walks of life, including families with young kids that require a safe environment in a Brickell / Downtown location.
- Villa Regina is WATERFRONT and despite Brickell’s enormous amount of new Condo growth and development, Waterfront is not an improvement that can be created.
-
