Lance Roylo: Luxury Real Estate Agent in Kendall, Miami
I've spent eight years working with luxury buyers and sellers in South Florida, and Kendall holds a special place in my practice. This sprawling area southwest of downtown Miami offers everything from established single-family neighborhoods to newer gated communities, attracting families who want space, good schools, and a more suburban feel while staying connected to the city.
Local Track Record
At Mitchell Premier Properties, I focus exclusively on luxury properties, and I currently represent a home in Kendall listed at $3.8 million. My approach is straightforward: I know the inventory, I understand what drives value in different Kendall neighborhoods, and I help my clients make informed decisions without the pressure. Whether you're looking at a waterfront estate or a custom-built home in one of the guard-gated communities, I can walk you through what to expect.
Current Listings in Kendall
For Buyers
Buyers in Kendall need to understand that this isn't one neighborhood but dozens, each with its own character and price point. The luxury market here includes everything from modern estates in The Hammocks to waterfront properties along the canals. I help clients narrow down which section of Kendall matches their lifestyle, then we focus on properties that actually meet their criteria. Inventory moves differently here than in Coral Gables or Pinecrest, so timing and local knowledge matter.
For Sellers
Selling a luxury home in Kendall means positioning your property correctly from day one. I work with sellers to understand what buyers at this price point expect, from presentation to pricing strategy. The luxury market here is specific, and we need to reach the right buyers through targeted marketing, not just hope someone drives by. I'll give you honest feedback about your home's position in the current market and what it takes to get the result you want.
Common questions about Kendall
What's the luxury real estate market like in Kendall right now?
The luxury market in Kendall moves more slowly than entry-level and mid-range properties, which is typical for homes above $2 million. Buyers at this level take their time, they're particular about location and features, and they're comparing your property to options in Pinecrest, Coral Gables, and other nearby areas. Right now I'm seeing serious buyers who know what they want, but they expect homes to be priced right and show well from the first day on market.
Which parts of Kendall are best for luxury homebuyers?
It depends entirely on what you're looking for. The Hammocks offers newer construction and resort-style amenities in a master-planned community. Three Lakes has waterfront properties and larger lots. Kendale Lakes and Sunset attract buyers who want established neighborhoods with mature landscaping. I help buyers understand the differences between these areas because each one appeals to different priorities, whether that's schools, water access, lot size, or proximity to US-1 and the Turnpike.
How long does it typically take to sell a luxury home in Kendall?
There's no standard timeline because every luxury property is different. A well-priced, well-presented home in a desirable Kendall location might sell in a few months, while a property that's overpriced or needs work can sit for a year or more. The key is starting with realistic expectations about your home's position in the market. I walk sellers through comparable sales, current competition, and what buyers in this price range are actually looking for so we can create a strategy that works.
