May 28, 2026 - 03:45

In a special conversation, host Levi Meyer, Director of the Levi Meyer Group with Compass, sat down with some of the leading voices shaping the future of real estate in South Florida and beyond. The roundtable, hosted in partnership with MIAMI REALTORS and RWorld, brought together top brokers, tech innovators, and market strategists to discuss the shifting landscape of property and development.

The discussion kicked off with a focus on how artificial intelligence and data analytics are changing the way agents serve clients. Panelists noted that the days of relying solely on intuition are fading, replaced by tools that predict neighborhood trends and buyer behavior with surprising accuracy. One broker shared how her team now uses AI to automate property valuations, freeing up time for face-to-face client work.

Another key topic was the growing demand for mixed-use spaces. As remote work becomes permanent for many, buyers are looking for homes that blend living, working, and recreation. Developers in Miami are responding with projects that include co-working lounges, fitness centers, and green courtyards. The panel agreed that the traditional suburban model is evolving into something more urban and flexible.

Affordability also took center stage. With interest rates still high and inventory tight, the panel discussed creative financing solutions and the rise of co-ownership models. One expert pointed to a new platform that matches buyers to share ownership of vacation properties, a trend that could trickle into primary residences.

The conversation ended on a note of cautious optimism. While challenges remain, the leaders at the table agreed that Miami's real estate market is resilient, driven by in-migration and a culture of innovation. For agents and investors willing to adapt, the future looks promising.
