On Tuesday night, as returns came in and Zohran Mamdani secured his victory to become New York City’s next mayor, the reaction was swift in a place 1,300 miles south: Miami.
Not from New Yorkers looking to flee — at least not yet — but from Florida locals, who began moving to secure homes before the wave they fear is coming.
By Wednesday morning, waterfront homes that might normally linger through Thanksgiving were instead moving into contract at a fast clip.
Condos that had sat through the summer heat suddenly found themselves with multiple offers.
The buyers were not hedge fund partners fresh off a flight from Teterboro. They were Miami, Boca, and Palm Beach residents who believed they had one window left before wealthy New Yorkers arrived in force.
“We are definitely seeing interest from New York City intensify because of the election,” Dina Goldentayer, a luxury broker with Douglas Elliman in Miami, told The Post. “The area codes 917 and 212 are popping up now almost as much as they did at the height of the COVID pandemic.”
But the phones lighting up didn’t cause the surge. The fear of them did.
“What I’m really seeing, what has happened the last few weeks, is that the local buyers have been so fearful that the New Yorkers are going to start coming in and buying everything up, that it’s been the local buyers that have put everything, all the homes, under contract,” she said. “They’re scared of wealthy New Yorkers coming up and taking up the good product.”

No one wants a Karen next door.
The Villages. Prices surprised me from a year ago. Lower but so was the inventory.
Good for them. Keep the NYers out.
The should move to New Jersey and Pennsylvania and help flip these states red.
Actually a Good Plan.
[Too bad Prop. Taxes will still rise...]
Don’t those Floridians know that the oceans are rising and that those homes will all be under water in another five years?
Smart move. Buy up property now. When the New Yorkers come south, sell the properties for a price that they are used to.
Suckers.
I’ll take 500K, once the check clears, I’ll be gone in 30 days.
The liberal locusts are coming.
Those houses in the villages are framed houses.
