Does Delano Residences & Hotel Miami approve buyers and tenants? Screening and first refusal

Whether Delano Residences & Hotel Miami approves buyers and tenants is set by its declaration, not by the sales team. Many Florida condominiums require approval of later sales and of leases, some keep a right of first refusal, and the developer’s own sales are usually exempt. Here is what each provision means, and what it changes about renting or reselling later.

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.

Why A Building Screens

Control over who lives there.

A Florida condominium can require its association to approve a sale, a lease or a long stay, if the declaration says so. The purpose is control. Owners in a small or very private building often want a say in who joins them; a building with an active rental market may want to know who sleeps in it. Two towers on the same street can differ completely.

The size of the community the board screens for: ~421 fully finished residences across a ~90 story tower, with hotel below. Who runs the front desk that keeps the list: Delano, under licence, with Ennismore and Accor as project team · hotel and residences in one tower.

Buying From The Developer, Buying Later

The first buyer and the next one.

The developer’s own sales are usually exempt from approval and from any right of first refusal, so a buyer of a new home at Delano Residences & Hotel Miami is rarely screened by the association on the first day. The provisions bite later: on whoever buys from you, on your tenants, and sometimes on your heirs or on the company you hold the home through. A buyer taking title in an entity should ask whether the association will want to approve the people behind it, and whether a change in who owns the entity counts as a transfer.

First Refusal

The association’s option to step into a sale.

A right of first refusal lets the association, or a buyer it names, take over a sale or a lease on the same terms the owner agreed with someone else. It is rarely used, but it adds days to every resale. Read how many days the association has to decide, whether the right covers leases as well as sales, and which transfers are exempt: gifts within a family, a move into a trust, a lender taking the home after foreclosure.

What a later buyer of a home at Delano Residences & Hotel Miami will be screened into: Studios through 3 bedrooms in the released collection · the Delano Collection on floors 20 to 47 carries studio, studio and den, 1 and 2 bedroom lines · larger residences expected in later releases · furnished suites in select lines. Where it stands: Fourth and Biscayne, Downtown Miami · views of downtown, Biscayne Bay, Miami Beach and the Atlantic.

The Application, The Fee, The Clock

And what a refusal triggers.

An approval usually means an application, a background check, sometimes an interview, and a fee. Florida law limits that fee and allows it only where the documents require approval. Ask how long the association has to answer, whether silence counts as approval, and what happens on a refusal: some declarations oblige the association to buy the home or produce another buyer on the same terms, others do not. For leases, ask the minimum term and how often a home may be leased in a year, and note that Florida law limits how far a later amendment restricting leasing reaches owners who bought before it. The shared spaces every approved resident uses: Two resort pools, one on the bay deck and one in the sky · The Source by Delano spa and fitness with steam, sauna and cold plunge · Delano Rose Bar · Café Delano · all day restaurant · sky restaurant · Members’ Club · meeting and event rooms.
