Building one of the world’s best downtowns takes a shared vision, and the commitment to work hand in hand to make it happen.

Today, I joined Russell Galbut and Alfonso Costa Jr. at the Miami DDA’s Market Watch forum to discuss the future of Downtown Miami and our responsibility as developers to help shape it.

Working alongside the @downtownmia means connecting investment with the needs of our community: creating jobs, supporting local businesses, improving public spaces, and making downtown an exceptional place to live, work, and build a future. That’s how we create lasting prosperity.

Thank you to MJ Green @somuchgreen and the entire Miami DDA team for hosting and bringing together people committed to this city’s next chapter.

Honored to play a part. Let’s keep building, and playing the long game. taken in Downtown Miami by @jayroberts

Sometimes your next chapter begins with a door you did not plan to walk through. | PART 2

On The Long Game with @jayroberts, @jrparsiani continues the story of the unexpected moment that brought him back into real estate on an entirely different level.

After meeting Cervera Senior, John was invited to interview at Cervera. At first, he was set on going corporate.

But Cervera insisted.

“Young man, there’s a position for you at my company. You have to come for an interview.”

That opportunity became a defining chapter in John’s career.

For him, Cervera was more than a company. It was the bootcamp for new construction and pre-construction sales — the place where he learned the structure, discipline, and foundation of new development in South Florida.

John also reflects with deep respect on Alicia Cervera Sr., whose pioneering impact helped shape the new development sales industry into what it is today.

Part 2. The story continues.

What does it take to build a home that changes an entire market?

In 2019, a property in Journey’s End sold for around $14 million, a neighborhood record in Coral Gables. Three years later, the remodeled estate sold for $44 million.

On the latest episode of The Long Game, I sat down with Manny Varas (@mannyavaras), founder of @mvgroupusa, to talk about how he built a home that reset expectations for Coral Gables luxury real estate.

Built for attorney Anthony Lopez and his partner, Dr. Nicole Martin of The Real Housewives of Miami, the home brought together exceptional design, craftsmanship, and attention to detail. It appeared on Bravo, earned a feature in Architectural Digest, and caught the attention of Jeff Bezos’ parents.

Anthony and Nicole had just moved in and weren’t planning to sell. Then came an offer they simply couldn’t refuse from the Bezos’ family.

At a time when top waterfront homes in Coral Gables were trading at roughly $1,500–$2,000 per square foot, this sale approached $5,000.

This is part of what we unpacked with Manny - the decisions that go into building something extraordinary, and how one home can establish a new benchmark for an entire market.

From flipping sneakers to reimagining the office building.

I sat down with Robert Rivani (@robert_rivani) for The Long Game as he opened Class X by RIVANI in Miami Beach. We talked about how he evolved from selling shoes to building a real estate business, and why this project brings everything he’s learned under one roof.

Robert’s path took him from shopping centers to buying Miami restaurant properties, including the South of Fifth space that became CATCH, and then to his $62.5 million purchase of The Lincoln. Along the way, he developed a sharp eye for the connection between real estate and hospitality: the right building can become a destination when you bring the right experiences into it. Class X is his biggest expression of that idea yet.

Congratulations on the opening, Robert. Looking forward to sharing our conversation. taken in Miami Beach, Florida by @jayroberts

Versluys Group is a fourth-generation family company from Ostend, Belgium. For more than a century (since 1908), our name has stood for a clear vision, an uncompromising focus on quality and a deep expertise built project by project, generation after generation.

Along the Belgian and Dutch coast, we have delivered 802 buildings and more than 12,000 homes. Among them are Belgium’s highest-valued residential project, One Carlton in Knokke-Zoute, and Oosteroever, where we turned Ostend’s historic harbor into a vibrant new waterfront district. Every project carries the Versluys Signature, our hallmark of refined materials, meticulous finishes and an unwavering eye for detail.

Today, that same philosophy takes us across the Atlantic. We are proud to partner with @prospergroup @jayroberts on @bugattiresidencesmiami the first Bugatti Residences in the Americas.

Ettore Bugatti once said: “If comparable, it is no longer Bugatti.” It is a standard we recognize, and one we have pursued for more than a century.

“What attracted us to Bugatti was a shared commitment to excellence and an understanding that true luxury extends far beyond aesthetics.”

@mannyavaras has created more than $45M++ in value for Rick Ross. Not many people can say that.

The CEO and President of @mvgroupusa, the go-to builder for billionaires, entertainers, athletes and the world’s fashion and business elite, sat down with us for the latest episode of The Long Game. He breaks down the Star Island estate he built for Rick Ross (@richforever) and why the end goal went beyond a remodel.

When Rick came to him looking to redo the entire property, Manny saw a bigger opportunity to ultimately create value for his client. His team took a multi-pronged approach, adding square footage to the existing house to drive terminal value and then layering in a full renovation with no expense spared.

To bring it to life, Manny assembled a dream team of design talent, including renowned architect @kobikarp on the expansion and Kai Williamson (@kaistudio7) of LA-based @studio7designgroup to create a truly one-of-a-kind estate.

The result? More than $45M in value created in under two years and a coveted Architectural Digest spread.

This is what playing The Long Game is all about. It’s seeing the value before anyone else.

Watch the full episode on YouTube and Spotify, or listen on Apple Podcasts this Thursday.
