The Miami Herald is seeking a real estate reporter to break news, spot trends and dig deep into the fast-changing world of how and where we live and work in South Florida.
This reporter will tell the stories of a changing skyline and new neighborhoods, track changes in prices and sales, keep tabs on urban redevelopment, and stay ahead of a condo crisis that is pricing people out of their homes as new laws require repairs in the aftermath of the Surfside building collapse.
This beat demands both quick turns off news and trends and step-back accountability and enterprise to explain what’s going on and why. The focus area is Miami Dade and Broward counties, where real estate – buying, selling, building, demolishing, rebuilding, renovating – is an economic engine that keeps our region humming.
This is a beat that will keep you busy, with three or four stories a week. Expect to tell your stories in narratives, newsletters, public service lists, summaries, explainers, data visuals, social video and in-person presentations. You’ll collaborate with other reporters in the newsroom whose beats touch the real estate world. You’ll also need to develop deep sources to break exclusives and spotlight trends.
We are looking for a reporter brimming with ideas, one who can take a topic or tip and find the sharp angle and wide lens and tell a story with authority and context.
Candidates should have the following skills:
