5 Miami homes for $925K or less

Welcome to Miami’s Curbed Comparisons, a column that explores what one can rent or buy for a set dollar amount across various South Florida neighborhoods. Is one man's studio another man's townhouse? Let's find out!

We hit up the Miami area last week with a rental budget of $1,200 per month, where voters settled on a studio in Normandy Isles.

This week, we’re home shopping with a budget of $925,000.

Our house hunt takes us through Palmetto Bay, South Beach, Coral Gables, North Miami, and Miami Shores. Which one is it going to be?
