Where Four Seasons Private Residences Coconut Grove stands today is a fact you can check without asking the sales team: the county’s permit record, the site itself and the construction lender’s inspections all say how far a tower has risen. Progress runs in stages, from the permit through the foundation, the structure, topping off, the facade and the certificate of occupancy, and the deposit schedule is written around those same stages. Here is how to read where Four Seasons Private Residences Coconut Grove is, and what that means for a buyer deciding whether to sign now or wait.
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.
A Miami condominium is sold before it exists, and the gap between the launch and the keys is the whole subject of this page. In order: the reservation, then the contract once the condominium documents are filed with the state; the building permit and the construction loan, which in most projects wait for a sales threshold the lender sets; the foundation, piles driven deep and a mat poured over weeks; the structure; topping off, when the last slab is poured; the facade and the interiors, which take longer than buyers expect; and the certificate of occupancy, after which closings begin. Ask which of these Four Seasons Private Residences Coconut Grove has passed and on what date. The tower as planned: 20 storeys, 70 residences. The architect whose drawings the permit was issued on: Revuelta Architecture International.

Progress is public. Miami-Dade County, Palm Beach County and the cities each keep a permit portal where the master building permit and its inspections can be read by anyone with the address; a permit not yet issued means a tower not yet started, whatever the renderings say. The site can be driven past, and a crane, a pile driver or a topped-off structure tells you more than a film. Ask the developer of Four Seasons Private Residences Coconut Grove for the construction lender’s name and whether the loan has closed, because a lender’s draw inspections are the most disciplined record of progress there is, and ask for dated photographs rather than renderings; read any update for dates and floor numbers, not adjectives. Where the site is: The position is as the dossier records. Who is building it, and on whose paper: CMC Group and Fort Partners; developer of record M-2699 S Bayshore Owner LLC; sales by Fort Realty LLC and CMC Real Estate LLC.
The deposit schedule for a new condominium is usually written around construction milestones: a payment at contract, another at groundbreaking or at the permit, another at topping off, the balance at closing. That is not an accident; it ties your money to the developer’s progress and gives you a date to verify before each wire. Before a milestone payment, confirm the milestone happened: the permit record for the groundbreaking, the site for the top-off. Florida law governs how a developer may hold and use deposits on a pre-construction condominium, and the contract names the escrow agent who holds yours; read both with counsel, and ask what happens to each payment if a milestone is missed. The schedule for Four Seasons Private Residences Coconut Grove as published or held: As published on the developer fact sheet: 20 percent at contract, 20 percent at groundbreaking; the balance per the purchase agreement, held by the desk. What you are paying for, as described: Typical residences from about 2,025 to 3,975 square feet; every residence with a water view; dedicated elevator access to private foyers; ceilings 10 feet or higher, 11 feet or higher on terraces; terraces at least 10 feet deep with glass railings; Molteni kitchens and Italian marble bathrooms by Michele Bönan; penthouses not listed on the sheet.
Progress tells you where the building is; it does not tell you when it will finish, and nobody honest will give you that date as a promise. The contract carries an estimated completion date and an outside date, and the gap between them is the developer’s cushion; what progress adds is evidence. A topped-off tower is nearer its keys than a fenced lot, and a buyer who checks the record each quarter knows which Four Seasons Private Residences Coconut Grove is. The operator who will run the building once it opens, where there is one: The Four Seasons name under licence from Four Seasons Hotels Limited; an appointed Director of Residence, residential concierge, doorman and bellman, 24/7 security and valet, 24 hour on-call emergency repair; not owned, developed or sold by Four Seasons. What the finished building is meant to hold: Signature restaurant on the first level with in-residence dining; serviced pool deck; gym and yoga room; spa with treatment rooms, jacuzzi and water experience; lounge and bar; kids area; party room; bicycle storage; à la carte in-residence dining, spa, housekeeping, grocery provisioning, butler, wellness programs, dog grooming, catering and car wash.
The trade-off is choice against certainty. Signing early at Four Seasons Private Residences Coconut Grove means the widest choice of line and floor and the longest wait, with the deposits out and the finish unseen; signing late means a building you can stand in and whatever remains on the price list. The desk reads the permit record, the lender’s status and the deposit schedule for Four Seasons Private Residences Coconut Grove with you before either decision.
A rendering is a promise. A permit is a fact. Pay on the fact.
