Golden Beach Developers paid $24 million for the 1.1-acre site at 19505 Collins Ave. in Sunny Isles Beach.


Read in the South Florida Business Journal - Sept. 20, 2011
 
Regalia in Sunny Isles Beach sold for 24MM
Golden Beach Developers paid $24 million for the 1.1-acre site at 19505 Collins Ave. in Sunny Isles Beach.

Instead of selling at a discount to its troubled mortgage, as is usually the case in South Florida, a Sunny Isles Beach development site got dealt for $24 million – significantly higher than its loan.
In 2009, FirstBank filed an $11.7 million foreclosure lawsuit against Regalia LLC, along with managing members Jerold M. Kaufman, Abraham Cohen, Paul C. Murphy and Avra J. Jain.
It targeted the vacant 1.14-acre beachfront site at 19505 Collins Ave.
Regalia received approval to build the 43-story 40-unit condo there, but no major construction had taken place.
FirstBank failed and its assets were assumed by Beal Bank Nevada  . The new lender recently assigned the loan to International Lending in the British Virgin Islands.
Given the price the property brought, it looks like Regalia is off the hook. The new owner is Golden Beach Developers, an Aventura company managed by attorney Louis Montello.

This confirms my predictions.


Undoubtedly some people believe in beachfront properties.
At the pace that most of the inventory on the beach in South Florida has been swallowed by foreign investors, we shouldn't be waiting too long before prices are on the rise.
