A distinguished group of about 35 Miami real estate agents gathered for an afternoon of networking and knowledge sharing at the YUPIX headquarters in Miami’s Wynwood district. The agents experienced meta-reality tours of LOFTY Brickell, the most elevated offering in Newgard Development Group’s flexible ownership concept.

Cervera Real Estate hosted the private event held on Aug. 30. A handful of speakers shared their secrets for creating more listings, best practices in pre-construction sales strategies and ways to achieve more consistent closings. Cervera agent Dali Hernandez gave a presentation on LOFTY Brickell, Newgard’s 44-story luxury condominium project under development on the Miami River. Cervera is the project’s exclusive sales and marketing representative.

The attending agents also had a chance to experience the meta-reality tour of LOFTY, utilizing technology developed by YUPIX. The technology was designed to give prospective buyers an immersive feel for the finished product. Several buyers have credited the tours for confirming their decision to purchase a unit in the building.

“Buyers are increasingly becoming more discerning when deciding between residential projects,” said Hernandez, a member of the LOFTY sales team. “Having the ability to take someone inside a luxury building long before it is completed creates a competitive edge.”

Designed by Arquitectonica, the 362-unit LOFTY Brickell is 92% sold, with only a handful of penthouse residences available for purchase. The Signature Penthouse Collection offers spacious two, three and three-bedroom plus den units that will be curated and furnished by revered design firm Artefacto. Starting at $2 million, they represent the best value in penthouse homes in the Brickell submarket.

Located across from Brickell City Centre, LOFTY is the next evolution of condominium ownership. It brings a 5-star alternative for the owner and traveler who prefers to stay and own differently – yet does not want to compromise on hotel services and amenities. Each residence will be delivered fully finished and furnished and, with professional management, will permit short-term rentals.
