MIAMI 'S REAL ESTATE IS HOTTER THAN EVER BEFORE

Have you heard from the Tax Cut and Jobs acted signed by Trump at the end of 2017? If you are in New York or Connecticut, I'm almost sure you have. A large line of wealthy buyers coming from the North are now investing in South Florida, especially in Miami real estate.

We are glad to be the refuge for high tax areas such as New York and California, but what is this Tax Cut that has created this migration to Florida? Basically, after the approval of the "TCJA", the law is capping a deduction for state and local taxes of only $10,000. This deduction is almost nothing for high-income earners that have property taxes of over $100,000. They prefer to invest in a luxury condo in South of Fifth, becoming a Florida resident than paying taxes with that same amount of money.

This is not the only change that has happened after the tax reform, but it is the most visible. However, this new law also caps interest rate deduction to mortgages under $750,000 which really affects owners with property values that are far above.

Relocating in Miami seems to be the best option for avoiding this "Government trap" and that is why the city has been definitely the #1 winner from this tax cut as it has been attracting more North Easters than ever before!

7 ALTERNATIVES TO AIRBNB

MARCH'S EVENT SUGGESTIONS

We could definitely say that March is the "music month". This month is the best moment to go out and enjoy the most incredible music festivals and carnivals in Miami!

- MARCH 2nd/ 10th: Let's start this month with a lot of music and dancing! I invite you to join me at the Carnival of Miami, we will have a blast with a bunch of art, fashion, food and obviously music! One million attendees each year gather together to have a "Latino" experience. However, it is not just about having fun, the carnival is hosted by the volunteers of Kiwanis Club of Little Havana, with the only purpose to benefit their foundation that supports youth development.

- MARCH 10th: Calle Ocho festival will be the farewell of the Miami Festival. This is definitely the marquee event of the festival, as it gets more than 20 blocks in Little Havana filled with concerts, food stands, dancing everywhere and much more! Famous Latino singers are going to do a performance, so if you are into Pitbull, Niki Jam or Maluma's music, this is the perfect event for you!

MASKA MIAMI INDIAN RESTAURANT

Michelin awarded, chef Hemant Mathur, just launched to the public his Indian restaurant, Maska Miami. Located in Midtown, this 7,000 sqft restaurant offers also a full-service bar.

After opening 2 Indian restaurants in New York, Devi and Tulsi, Marthur decided to try warmer areas. With a contemporary-casual menu, Maska offers three categories of food: Small plates, Large plate, and Maska Marke (from the tandoor and clay oven).

What can you find in this stylish restaurant? An open kitchen and tandoor, a lounge area and an open bar.

I have to say, this is definitely one of the best Indian restaurants I have ever been to. Unparalleled cuisine and drinks. It is even hard to decide which plate is my favorite, but if I have to suggest only one, I would definitely go for the crab dumpling.

I can't wait for you to try it!
