About Miami Springs: The City of Progress

Miami Springs, known as "The City of Progress," stands as one of Miami-Dade County's most distinctive and historic communities, founded in the 1920s by aviation pioneer Glenn Curtiss with a vision of creating a Mediterranean-style residential community. The city was designed with strict architectural guidelines requiring Mediterranean Revival style, creating a cohesive and elegant aesthetic that remains largely intact today. Miami Springs' historic character, tree-lined boulevards, and distinctive architecture make it one of South Florida's most desirable residential communities. The city's proximity to Miami International Airport and major employment centers adds to its appeal, while its historic preservation efforts maintain its unique character.

The real estate market in Miami Springs is characterized by historic Mediterranean-style homes, many dating from the 1920s-1940s and featuring original details like barrel-tile roofs, arched windows, and elaborate ironwork. Neighborhoods throughout the city showcase properties ranging from meticulously restored historic homes to newer residences built to complement the area's architectural heritage. The housing stock includes original Mediterranean Revival homes, some Art Deco influences, and newer construction designed to maintain the city's character. Many properties feature mature landscaping, original architectural details, and well-maintained exteriors that reflect the city's preservation efforts. The area's historic nature means properties are subject to preservation requirements, ensuring the community's architectural integrity is maintained.

Miami Springs' historic nature presents unique inspection challenges. Many homes feature original construction from the 1920s-1940s, requiring careful evaluation of structural integrity, electrical systems that may need updating, and plumbing that could be nearing the end of its useful life. The city's strict preservation codes mean that modifications must maintain architectural integrity, making it essential to identify issues before purchase. Additionally, Miami Springs' location in Miami-Dade County's hurricane zone requires thorough wind mitigation inspections, especially for older homes that may need hurricane-resistant upgrades. The prevalence of original barrel-tile roofs requires specialized evaluation, as these can be expensive to repair or replace while maintaining historic character. The area's high water table and flat topography mean foundation inspections must account for potential settling.

Our inspectors are well-versed in Miami Springs' unique characteristics, including the importance of evaluating historic homes for modern safety standards while respecting their architectural integrity, assessing the condition of original barrel-tile roofs and historic building materials, and understanding the city's preservation requirements. We recognize that Miami Springs properties often represent significant investments for buyers seeking the city's unique historic character, and our thorough inspections help protect buyers while respecting the community's architectural heritage and addressing the specific challenges of historic home ownership.
