Real Estate in Puerto Rico

“The high end of the market has and is rebounding,” said Margaret Pena Juvelier, the broker-owner of Puerto Rico Sotheby’s International Realty, which has the listing. “Puerto Rico had been in a deep slump since the downturn of the economy” when prices plummeted 35 to 50 percent, she said. But since a new tax law passed in 2012, Ms. Juvelier said she is “seeing a lot more people coming to Puerto Rico and taking advantage” of the tax incentive to buy homes. NYTimes - Article

Puerto Rico Real Estate - Market Spotlight

“Historically Puerto Rico has had a strong tourist community with real estate mostly owned by locals, says Margaret Pena Juvelier, owner and president Puerto Rico Sotheby’s International Realty. Hit hard by the downturn of the market, it is rebounding, which has translated into opportunity buying. Inventory is moving at a faster pace, and we are definitely seeing an uptick in the market on the luxury end. Many new buyers are coming into the market directly from new tax incentive laws that were passed and are attracting buyers from all over, especially within the United States. Record prices have been set in resort, beachfront communities such as the new Ritz Carlton Reserve at Dorado Beach and the Trump Founders Residences. These buyers are seizing the opportunity to purchase well and take advantage of these incentives. The lifestyle here is cosmopolitan, cultured and tropical as well as extremely diverse. I believe Puerto Rico will be the new Riviera of the Caribbean!” (Full Article)

A Manhattan Townhouse Sells for $32 Million

A Manhattan townhouse has sold for $32 million, $7 million above its asking price. The seller was a real-estate investor who had owned the property since the 1950s.

Built in 1870, the Italianate-style former mansion at 815 Fifth Ave. has since been subdivided into offices and apartments. The six-story building overlooks Central Park and, according to the listing, is the oldest building on Fifth Avenue below 110th Street. It has about 10,000 square feet of living space with 12 apartments and two offices.

The current owner paid $120,000 for the property in the early 1950s and converted it into an apartment building.

Darren Sukenik and Leonard Steinberg of Prudential Douglas Elliman had the listing. Roberta Golubock and Margaret Juvelier of Sotheby's International Realty represented the buyer.
