Help! Relocating to N. Miami Beach

MegK11

Hello! My husband and I are relocating to N. Miami Beach from Indiana. We are looking at purchasing a house in a nice area of town for around $200,000 +/-

We don't have children yet, but we are looking for a fun, SAFE, nice area to live.
Suggestions???

I am moving to Miami this year also.  I don't have any good advice but wanted to say hello.  This board is pretty slow from what I have seen.  Hoping that it will become more active in the coming months.  Good Luck with your home search!!

We used to have an extremely active board but a lot has happened in the last year or so!

I'm not familiar with where to live in Miami as I'm a little bit more north in the Coral Springs area, however will try to help as much as possible.  Are you looking for a Single Family or would you also be open to a Townhouse/Condo?

Hopefully a few of us can get the board going again !  DH and I are going to rent when we move.  Either a condo or SFH.

Thank you for the response!! I apologize for the delay. I kept checking back and saw it was kind of slow so I haven't been on in a while! I'll check back more often.

DH and I have decided to rent for 3-6 months to find the areas that we like and then buy. I appreciate the help, ladies!

JoaPata, where are you living now?

That's alright!  It makes sense that you want to rent first to test out the area.  Most places down here that are corporate rental communities only have 7-12 month leases and even then they don't usually give out the 7 month ones.  I'll look to see what areas I can recommend (from other friends and whatnot) and see if I can help you find some privately owned properties that may be ok with the shorter lease.
