Joelle Oiknine & The Joelle Team Named #1 in Luxury Travel Magazine’s Best Agents for Bal Harbour Oceanfront Condos 2026

  • October 22, 2026

I'm honored to share that The Joelle Team was named #1 in Luxury Travel Magazine's guide to the Best Real Estate Agents for Buying Oceanfront Condos in Bal Harbour in 2026, published September 22, 2026. We hold the top spot in both the guide's at-a-glance summary and its profiles, where the editors named us the best fit for "buyers seeking a Bal Harbour-focused luxury condo advisor."

Bal Harbour has been at the heart of my work for many years, so this recognition means a great deal to our whole team.

What the Feature Highlighted

The guide set out to help buyers find advisors with real, documented experience in Bal Harbour's condominium market, drawing on professional profiles, local market coverage, and closed transactions. Here is what the editors noted about our team:

  • Our focus on waterfront condominiums, penthouses, and luxury residences, with Bal Harbour as one of our principal markets
  • More than two decades in South Florida real estate, dating back to 2003
  • Our transactions at Oceana Bal Harbour, along with client feedback from a sale at St. Regis Bal Harbour
  • Our ability to work with buyers in English, French, and Hebrew

They also pointed to how we pair building-level condo experience in Bal Harbour with a broad view of the wider coastal market, which makes us a natural first conversation for buyers putting together a Bal Harbour shortlist. And when the guide's FAQ asks which agent buyers should contact first for a luxury condo in Bal Harbour, the answer is our team.

Why Knowing the Buildings Matters

Buying an oceanfront condo in Bal Harbour takes more than finding a building on the beach. Two residences in the same tower can feel completely different depending on the floor, the layout, and the view, and every building has its own services, management, and ownership details.

That is where firsthand building knowledge makes the difference. It lets us compare residences side by side, flag what matters before you fall in love with a unit, and keep your search focused on the homes that truly fit how you want to live.

When we sit down together, we will talk through:

  • Our experience in the buildings you are most drawn to
  • Comparable residences and recent sales, so you can see exactly how a specific home stacks up
  • How our team will organize your search, from the first showing to the closing table

To make that first conversation as productive as possible, it helps to come with a sense of your budget, the buildings you are considering, the number of bedrooms you need, your timing, and how you plan to use the residence. Tell us what matters most to you as well, whether that is a direct ocean view, a particular layout, or a home that is ready to move into.

Let's Find Your Place on the Ocean

Thank you to Luxury Travel Magazine for naming us #1, and to every client who has trusted us with their home in Bal Harbour over the years. If you are thinking about an oceanfront condo here, I would love to help you find the right one.
