Benjamin Sens
Spring Garden
George Kauper
Yes, yes. Yeah. So Spring Garden is a it’s an old Miami neighborhood. Developed probably over the late 1800s, early 1900s. I’m not familiar.
Benjamin Sens
This is right off the mind you river
George Kauper
it is
Benjamin Sens
and I literally saw across the street. This guy had like a boathouse. It looked like a drug runner, like it looked like one of those.
George Kauper
it’s it’s a it’s an amazing little neighborhood, directly west to maybe, you know, a half a mile west of the American Airlines Arena. And it sits right on the Miami River. Very close to the the Marlin Stadium, very close to Jackson, Brickell. So it sits in between all those areas, and identified a small apartment building that the family had owned since the 1930s that they need a lot of work. It’s a five unit apartment building. And the reason I called you is because you know, Erica had mentioned you are the expert. So if we really needed to understand how it’s affected by flooding, how are there any impacts potential negative impacts in the city, any kind of liens any kind of changes in the zoning that we need to know about. So that’s why I contacted you. Erica had said you’re the best person which you were and you did all that research for me which was very helpful. We’re renovating that building now and actually it’s like almost it’s almost completed.
Benjamin Sens
phenomenal and and again we’ll show the viewers this but you know if you guys want to look on the screen, there’s a block is like a triangle with five lots incredible opportunity.
What a neighborhood to be in you could be in Brickell in a minute you could be at the arena and yeah a minute and a half, just amazing.
I mean, and you’re around $800,000 houses million dollar homes on the water. Yeah. Which was so cool.
George Kauper
So this purchase was a five unit apartment building for $695,000. That house the single family home next door is a million and a half.
Benjamin Sens
Wow.
George Kauper
