The family office diligence file for Bentley Residences

A family office does not buy a rendering. It buys a file. This is the file for Bentley Residences: what to verify, in what order, and where each answer sits.

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.

Who This Is For

Written for the family-office operator.

Bentley Residences is at ~710 feet · a 2.4 acre oceanfront site · ~200 feet of sand in Sunny Isles Beach. The Bentley Residences dossier holds the developer’s published record. Read it against the Kempinski Residences Miami Design District dossier for the nearest comparison. This page is the family-office operator’s reading of it, as a framework to verify, never as a finding.

The record, in the developer’s words: Development: Dezer Development. Design: Bentley Motors, interior and exterior design · Sieger Suarez Architects. Residences: ~216 oceanfront residences across 63 stories. Building: ~710 feet · a 2.4 acre oceanfront site · ~200 feet of sand in Sunny Isles Beach.

Compare as you read: The St Regis Residences Sunny Isles Beach and Alba Palm Beach answer the same questions differently, and the desk holds the documents for all three.

Reserves And Assessments

What the budget must show.

The first association budget is an estimate prepared by the developer; the question is what it carries for reserves, how the reserve study is scheduled, and under what conditions a special assessment can be levied. Florida law since 2022 requires structural integrity reserve studies for buildings of three storeys and more; ask when the first one is due for this building and who pays for it.

For Bentley Residences the published program is: ~216 oceanfront residences across 63 stories. The count of homes sets the denominator of every assessment.

Escrow And Deposit Capacity

Where the money sits before the building exists.

The deposit schedule, the escrow agent, the account and the conditions under which the developer may use deposits above ten percent for construction are all contract terms and statutory disclosures. A family office reads the escrow agreement, not the marketing schedule.

The desk holds the deposit structure for this building and discusses it one to one; it is not published.

Guest Eligibility And Use

Who may occupy, and how.

The brand and management arrangement is as the dossier records. Whether family members, guests or tenants may occupy without the owner, for how long, and under what registration, sits in the declaration and the rules, not in the brochure.

Maintenance Blackouts

When the building closes parts of itself.

Amenities as published: Over ~20,000 SF across three levels furnished by Bentley Home: a three story lobby with ocean views, lobby restaurant under 33 foot glass, whiskey bar, 16 seat private dining room, 14 seat theatre, cigar lounge, spa and pet spa, beauty salon, simulator game room, oceanfront pool and 10 cabanas. The rules will say when pools, spas and clubs close for maintenance and whether owners are notified; a family office asks for the calendar before the first season.

The File

Six documents, in order.

The purchase agreement and its escrow terms. The offering documents and the declaration. The first budget with its reserve lines. The management or brand agreement, and its term. The rules on guests, tenants and pets. The developer’s published materials as of the contract date, kept as the baseline against which delivery is measured.

Read the file before the floor plan. The floor plan does not change; the file decides what owning it costs.
