Even during the South Florida real estate market\u2019s notoriously slow summer months, Miami-Dade saw some impressive multimillion-dollar home sales and contracts last week.<\/p>\n
Top transactions included former Miami Heat player Hassan Whiteside\u2019s Miami Beach mansion going under contract and a newly built house in Coconut Grove that broke the neighborhood\u2019s record for the priciest sale of a non-waterfront home.<\/p>\n
A weekly report from Douglas Elliman\u2019s Eklund-Gomes Team showed Miami-Dade buyers signed 13 luxury contracts last week worth a combined total of $110.5 million. The report tracks single-family home and condo contracts in the county worth $4 million or more.<\/p>\n
This week last year, Miami-Dade buyers signed 12 luxury contracts worth a total of $96.2 million, according to the report. A home going under contract means the seller has accepted an offer, but it does not mean the sale is finalized.<\/p>\n
Whiteside\u2019s five-bedroom home on the southern side of La Gorce Island went under contract for $14.8 million last week. He listed the 5,400-square-foot home in January 2025 for $19.5 million. This contract topped the Eklund-Gomes report\u2019s list of top contracts on single-family homes last week.<\/p>\n

It was followed by a newly built eight-bedroom home at 1230 101st St. in Bay Harbor Islands that went under contract for $9,500,000. Nearby at 9814 W. Broadview Dr., also in Bay Harbor, the $22 million sale of another eight-bedroom waterfront mansion is pending, according to the local multiple listing service.<\/p>\n
Bay Harbor Islands, neighbor to the affluent towns of Bal Harbour, Surfside and Indian Creek Village, is undergoing a transformation from a middle-class enclave into an ultra-luxury haven. The island\u2019s waterfront real estate is being redeveloped with luxury condo buildings and multimillion-dollar mansions.<\/p>\n
Other single-family homes that went under contract last week included three homes in Pinecrest: an under-construction six-bedroom mansion for $7.7 million, a newly built seven-bedroom home on a nearly one-acre lot for $7.2 million, and a seven-bedroom canal-front home for $4.7 million. Pinecrest, a South Miami-Dade suburb, has become a destination for luxury buyers looking for privacy and homes on larger lots.<\/p>\n
A sale that closed in Coconut Grove last week set a new record for the neighborhood\u2019s most expensive non-waterfront home sale. The newly built home at 4040 Kiaora St. is set within lush vegetation about a mile inland from Biscayne Bay. It was sold by its developer, Sabal Development, for $22.5 million.<\/p>\n
