ALL IN Miami

On paper, $180,000 in six months sounds like a dream come true. But for a pro tennis player ranked outside the top 100, it might barely cover your avocado-free Chipotle and your coach’s motel room. 🥑🚫

In this episode of ALL IN Miami, we unpack the brutal, behind-the-scenes economics of life on the tennis tour. Inspired by the honest words of Taro Daniel and stories from other journeymen, we dig into why so many talented players are living on a razor-thin financial edge.

You’ll hear:

Why prize money is NOT what it seems (hint: hello, taxes and commissions)

What it really costs to play just one tournament week

How traveling like a “small company” makes breaking even a win

The emotional weight of chasing greatness… while watching your credit card melt

This one’s for the dreamers, the grinders, and anyone who's ever wondered what success really costs when you're chasing it with everything you've got.

Why America’s Builders Are Playing the Long Game—And What It Means for You

While most homebuilders are cautiously guarding their profits, Lennar—the second-largest builder in the U.S.—is flipping the script. They're going all in on volume over margin, especially across the red-hot (but softening) Sun Belt.

In this episode, we unpack Lennar’s bold move to maintain market momentum by:

🏠 Offering major incentives—like mortgage rate buy-downs—to boost affordability

💸 Cutting average sales prices by nearly 9%

📊 Spending a record 13.3% of the final price on incentives

🔄 Choosing long-term market share over short-term profit gains

Why does this matter? Because it changes everything for buyers, sellers, and competing builders.

We talk about:

What this signals for the broader housing market

How this could shape prices and inventory going into 2025

Why builders are no longer betting on lower mortgage rates

And how buyers can take advantage of this unusual moment

Whether you’re an agent, investor, buyer, or just love watching real estate evolve in real time, this is a masterclass in strategy, risk, and market movement.

Homeownership is supposed to be the dream—but what if your biggest asset becomes a liability? A new report from ATTOM Data shows that while most U.S. homeowners are equity-rich, a noticeable segment—particularly in the South and Midwest—is seriously underwater (owing at least 25% more than the home’s current value).

For decades, the battle against heart disease was fought with treadmills, kale, and guilt. But now? The American College of Cardiology just flipped the script—and it's kind of a big deal.

South Florida’s skyline keeps rising—but it’s not banks holding the ladder anymore.

In this episode of ALL IN Miami, I’m diving deep into the real estate financing shakeup that’s changing the game. Developers aren’t turning to banks like they used to. Why? Because in this high-interest, post-pandemic world, banks are cautious, slow, and regulatory-handcuffed.

Enter private credit.

From global giants like Apollo and Blackstone to boutique debt funds and alternative financiers, private lenders are now fueling South Florida’s biggest projects—offering bigger loans, faster decisions, and a lot more flexibility. Sounds dreamy, right? Well... it’s not without risk.

I’ll break down:

Why traditional banks are pulling back

What private lenders are offering instead (hint: it’s not just cash)

Real examples like Waldorf Astoria, Shell Bay, and the mega-loans behind them

The fine print borrowers need to know

If you want to understand what’s really powering Miami’s real estate boom—and why private credit isn’t going anywhere—this is your episode.

You know Coconut Grove for its mango trees, sailboats, and the occasional peacock crossing the street like he owns the place—but do you know who actually lives here?

In this episode of ALL IN Miami, I’m bringing you six fictional—but totally believable—household profiles based on real data and daily life in Coconut Grove. We’ve got:

A couple raising teens who traded L.A. traffic for Biscayne Bay sunsets,

A multigenerational family keeping Bahamian roots alive in the West Grove,

A solo entrepreneur with a balcony garden and a rescue pup,

And yes… a couple living on a sailboat with a parrot named Captain.

It’s part neighborhood tour, part love letter to the Grove, and a full-on reminder that behind every gate, garden, and houseboat is a story you didn’t expect.
