A delivery date in a brochure is an estimate. The one that binds is in the contract, and it is later. At Banyan Tree Residences, here is how to read both.
This page is a framework. Whether the building suits you is a separate conversation. Contact the desk at Miami Dossier for the current position on any building we cover.
The brochure gives a season or a year. The purchase agreement gives an outside date, often with extensions for weather, permits and force majeure, after which a buyer may have the right to cancel and recover deposits. Everything between the two dates is the developer’s discretion, and the difference can be a year or more.
Banyan Tree Residences: 88 private residences plus a penthouse collection: one- to four-bedroom corner residences with wraparound terraces, 10-foot ceilings, floor-to-ceiling impact glass, direct elevator entry in most; Yabu Pushelberg kitchens with Sub-Zero and Wolf; primary baths with rain shower and sculptural freestanding tubs.
Read it against the Kempinski Residences Miami Design District dossier for the nearest comparison.
Groundbreaking, foundation, the first residential floor poured, topping off, glass closed, interiors begun, the temporary certificate of occupancy. Each is a date a developer publishes or a site photograph shows. A buyer who tracks them knows before the sales office calls.
Banyan Tree Residences: 400 Hibiscus Acquisitions, LLC; presented as Mast Capital and Curated JCZM Development.
Deposits stay in escrow for longer; a mortgage rate lock may expire; a lease may need extending; a currency may move. None of this is in the brochure. The contract says what the developer owes you for lateness, which is usually nothing until the outside date.
Banyan Tree Residences: The deposit schedule is held by the desk and read with you before contract.
What is the outside date in the contract, and what are my rights if it passes? The desk has the contract and reads the clause with you.

We hold no listings and we are not the developer. Contact the desk at Miami Dossier and we will tell you what applies to your situation, what does not, and where we would not proceed. On this topic that means the document before the opinion. Where a question is legal, tax or structuring, we introduce you to advisers who handle that properly rather than answering it ourselves.
