Situated on the eastern shores of the Miami coastline, Sunny Isles Beach is home to some of Florida’s most beautiful beaches, world-renowned dining and entertainment, and beyond-impressive homes boasting panoramic, endless views. However, the purchase of one of these homes requires the expert guidance and knowledge of a discerning, seasoned Realtor®. While most Sunny Isles Beach condos for sale require disclosure documents and going through an inspection process, waterfront homes need a bit more due diligence. With a professional like Ivan Ramirez on your side, you can rest assured knowing all details are accounted for, any concerns are addressed, and nothing but a smooth process awaits.
You should hire a professional, no matter what
No matter where you live or want to live, it is essential to enlist the assistance of a trusted licensed professional like Ivan Ramirez. Real estate transactions are complex, multifaceted, and consist of several moving parts on various sides of the deal. In addition to the sheer complexity of the contract and other legalities surrounding the transaction, enlisting the help of a professional will ensure you get the fairest deal you can. No buyer wants to overpay, while no seller wants to leave money on the table.
Hundreds of studies have been conducted proving time and time again that sellers who hire a licensed realtor actually end up selling their home for more money in the long run while spending fewer days on the market. On the buyer side, there’s really nothing to lose, either. Commission for a buyer's agent actually comes from the seller‘s proceeds, making it a free service for those looking to purchase.
After more than two decades spent in the industry, not only does Ivan know the Sunny Isles Beach real estate market well, he knows the ins and outs of accurate statistics and has connections to other brokers to make any transaction go smoothly. He has also gained an acute understanding of contract negotiations and the art of the deal. Furthermore, Ivan ensures every single ‘T’ is crossed and ‘I’ is dotted, so clients can avoid any bumps in the road or other unpleasantries they may encounter.
Avoid possible misunderstandings, liabilities, and other headaches
Aside from making your life infinitely easier, a licensed realtor can help you avoid some pretty serious liability issues that may arise later on down the road. Again, real estate transactions are multifaceted, with many individual parts concurrently working together to come together in the end.
On the selling side, your realtor can guide you through gathering all necessary documentation the buyers will need and make certain they are not afforded any easy ways to drop out of the transaction. For example, some communities may require disclosures and documentation for a homeowners association, special utility provisions, and coastal/geographical factors. If a buyer does not receive all paperwork they are entitled to within the timeline dictated by the contract, they could have a way to back out of the transaction, leaving you back at square one. On the buying side, you want to know exactly what you are buying, any defects which may exist, and other fees or liabilities you need to be aware of. A skilled realtor can aid in protecting you throughout the inspection process, into escrow, connect you with the right lender, refer you to insurance agents, and keep you on the right track through the closing day and beyond.
Beach and waterfront specifics

Sunny Isles Beach is situated on Florida‘s easternmost barrier island along the Atlantic coast. Homes positioned along the waterfront (even penthouse units perched high above the shoreline) require specific documentation and disclosures in addition to the regular paperwork routinely used within the state of Florida and a little more homework. Property surveys can show just how far out a parcel may extend onto the beach and out to sea, loans will require hurricane and flood insurance on most, if not all, properties, and many of these contracts will need waterfront addendums as part of the contract to close.
To further reiterate previous bullet points, not only will a licensed professional like Ivan Ramirez make this infinitely easier for you, but he will ensure the paperwork is done correctly and nothing is missing, which will save you from potential headaches or accidental mishaps both before and after closing.
Essential help for non-locals
With its natural beauty, vibrant culture, world-renowned cuisine, and a lengthy list of annual festivities, sporting events, and festivals, Miami is one of the most highly sought-after cities in the nation and world for both part-time and permanent residents. Many who choose to purchase Miami Beach real estate for sale might live elsewhere in the United States or in another country. With so many moving parts and possibly a great deal of distance between you and Miami, a licensed professional like Ivan Ramirez is more than worth his weight in gold. While having a pair of boots on the ground to take care of local business for you is one of the larger conveniences offered, the knowledge and expertise you’ll get are invaluable. Ivan has sold real estate along the Floridian coast for over two decades and knows every in and out of the contract and its respective addendums. With such a lengthy résumé, including his participation in over $2 billion in sales within North America, Ivan is properly equipped to attend to buyers in any geographic location, whether you’re just a few hours outside of town or time zones away.
Make sure your purchase is a fair one
When the market is hot, Miami can be a very competitive place if you’re looking at Sunny Isles Beach homes. Enlisting the help of a professional who knows the ropes can give you more than a fighting chance when it comes to making an offer and negotiating. It can also prevent you from getting taken advantage of as well. You are entitled to certain rights as a buyer, such as the right to have the home inspected by a third party and the right to receive completed, accurate paperwork and disclosures from the seller and their broker.
Would you head into court without an attorney to guide you along the way and work on your behalf to get you the best outcome possible? Probably not. So why leave a real estate purchase (one of, if not the largest purchases of your lifetime) up to chance? Set yourself up for success from the beginning, and have Ivan Ramirez and his team go to bat for you.
