Edgardo Defortuna used a simple insight to become a player in Miami’s luxury condo market back in the 1980s: Latin American investors were snapping up properties, and they needed someone to guide them. Defortuna, who had relocated from Argentina to Miami, seized on a novel strategy.
“I saw the opportunity to target the Latin American market,” Defortuna told Commercial Observer in 2023. “Nobody was really focused on it at the time. I realized that people from South America weren’t properly served. I teamed up with lawyers and bankers to make the purchase and selection easy for them and structure it the right way.”
