Many services carry extra fees. Ask for the list of what the association fee covers.
Who It Fits
It fits buyers who want a large home with hotel service in a gated island setting, a few minutes from Brickell. With delivery planned for 2030, it is a long hold. Plan your deposit cash flow for four years and talk to me about how the deposits are held before you sign.
How Buying Pre-Construction Works in Florida
- Reservation and contract: you choose a residence, sign the purchase agreement and pay the first deposit.
- 15-day review period: Florida law (Section 718.503, Florida Statutes) gives buyers of a new condominium from a developer 15 days to cancel after signing and receiving the required documents. Use that time to review the documents with your attorney.
- Construction: later deposits come due on the dates or milestones in your contract.
- Closing: you pay the balance at closing, in cash or with a mortgage. If you plan to finance, start talking to lenders well before completion.
