Closing costs at Fouquet’s Hotel & Residences Miami: the developer fee, title, documentary stamps and what to budget

The price is on the sheet. The closing costs are in the contract. At Fouquet’s Hotel & Residences Miami, here is what they are made of and how to get the number before you sign.

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 Developer Fee

The line nobody expects.

Most Miami pre-construction contracts add a developer or closing fee stated as a percentage of the price. It pays the developer’s closing costs, not yours. It is in the purchase agreement; the brochure never mentions it.

Read it against the Kempinski Residences Miami Design District dossier for the nearest comparison.

The State And The Title Company

Stamps, title, settlement.

Florida charges documentary stamp tax on the deed and, where there is a mortgage, on the note. Title insurance and settlement fees follow the price. These are not developer choices; they are the state and the title company, and they are estimable to the dollar.

The Association

The first dues and the working capital.

Most contracts collect two or three months of association dues at closing as a working-capital contribution, plus the first month. A brand or club fee may be collected too. Fouquet’s Hotel & Residences Miami: Fouquet’s, the signature brand of the Barrière Group, Paris flagship on the Champs-Élysées since 1899, Miami after Fouquet’s New York (Tribeca, 2022); Fouquet’s operates the hotel with owner access to hotel services and amenities.

Getting The Number

In writing, before contract.

Ask the desk for a closing-cost estimate on a specific unit at a specific price: developer fee, stamps, title, working capital, first dues. It is a one-page number and the desk prepares it from the contract.

The price is the beginning of the price.
