Anantara Residences Miami or Kempinski Residences Miami Design District: the two records side by side

Anantara Residences Miami is edgewater · bayfront. Kempinski Residences Miami Design District is miami design district · two towers. Buyers ask the desk to choose between them. The desk puts the two records next to each other and lets the brief choose.

Every row below is as the developer states it. Where one building has a row the other does not, it is because that developer has not stated it. The desk does not fill the gap and it does not rank the two. Contact the desk at Miami Dossier for the current position on any building we cover.

Entry Price As Published

The filter, not the price.

Anantara Residences Miami: from $1,800,000 as published. Kempinski Residences Miami Design District: entry pricing on request. A published entry price is the lowest point of the building as the developer stated it on the date it was stated, and it is often gone by the time a buyer asks. It tells you which conversations are worth having. It does not tell you what any residence costs. Current pricing and what is actually available in either building are released on request.

Where Each Sits

Two positions on the coast.

Anantara Residences Miami. 1000 Group commissioned Kohn Pedersen Fox for the tower with ODP as architect of record, Studio Patricia Urquiola in Milan for the interiors, and P Landscape of Bangkok with EDSA for ~30,000 SF of Thai inspired gardens. ~130,000 SF of amenity, and a longevity centre occupying an entire floor. What follows is the record, and our read of it.

Kempinski Residences Miami Design District. DaGrosa Capital Development Partners commissioned Arquitectonica for the two towers, Rockwell Group for the interiors and Enea for the gardens, and put Kempinski, the oldest luxury hotel group in Europe, in charge of running the building day to day. What follows is the record, and our read of it.

What Is The Same About Buying Either

The sequence does not change with the building.

Reserve, read the purchase agreement and the condominium documents with a Florida attorney inside the fifteen day cancellation window, sign, stage the deposits through construction in escrow, close on delivery. Each developer sets its own deposit schedule for each release and each changes it, which is why neither is printed here and both are quoted on request.

The building decides the brief. The brief does not decide the building. Bring the desk the line, the floor, the exposure and the timing you actually want, and the choice usually makes itself.

The Questions To Bring To The Desk

What settles it in practice.

Which lines are actually available in each building today, on the plan sheets rather than a list. What the deposit schedule is for the release in question, with dates. What the association budget looks like in each. What each developer currently states as the delivery date, and when it stated it. Those four answers, side by side, are the comparison that matters, and none of them belongs on a page that will be read next year.

The Shift

What the desk at Miami Dossier actually does with a comparison

This is the desk at Miami Dossier, a real estate desk covering the Miami market. It keeps the current position on both buildings and puts them in front of you on the same day, structured the same way, so the choice is made on the brief and not on the brochure.

The current release in each. Availability as each developer releases it, read against the plans.
The two deposit schedules. Quoted on request, with dates, never printed.
The two document sets. What arrives with each contract and what the attorney reads inside the fifteen days.
Who to ask instead. Introductions to independent legal and tax counsel, with no fee to us either way.

Common Questions

The questions that follow this one

Which is better, Anantara Residences Miami or Kempinski Residences Miami Design District?
The desk does not rank buildings. Each is described as its developer states it, and the choice is made on the brief: the line, the floor, the exposure, the timing and the structure that fit. Bring those and the comparison answers itself.
What is the entry price at Anantara Residences Miami and Kempinski Residences Miami Design District?
Anantara Residences Miami: from $1,800,000 as published. Kempinski Residences Miami Design District: entry pricing on request. Both are the entry point as published by the developer on the date stated, not the price of any residence. Current pricing is released on request.
Are the deposit schedules the same?
No. Each developer sets its own schedule for each release and changes it. Neither is printed here. The desk quotes both on request, with the dates, on the same day.
Which will be delivered first?
Each delivery date is whatever its developer currently states in its own material, and the desk reports each as stated, with the date it was stated. Neither is a promise and the desk does not forecast either.
Can I see both in one visit?
Yes. The desk arranges the galleries, the plan sheets and the current availability for both in one sequence, so the two are seen the same day and compared while both are fresh.

Before You Act On Any Of This

Before you act on any of this

Nothing on this page is legal, tax or investment advice, and every row is as its developer stated it on the date noted. Contact the desk at Miami Dossier and we will go through the current position on both buildings, the two deposit schedules and what is actually available in each. Where a question is legal, tax or immigration, we introduce you to advisers who handle that properly rather than answering it ourselves.
