The ownership file at Olara is the set of papers that proves what you own, governs how the building runs and records your home as it was delivered. Before contract you read the offering package; after closing you keep what it became. Here is what goes in the file, what to ask for at closing, and who should hold it while you are away.
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.
An owner is asked for documents for years after closing: by a lender at a refinance, an insurer after a storm, the property appraiser when homestead is claimed, the association when a rule is disputed, and the counsel of whoever buys from you one day. Each request has one answer in one paper. An owner who keeps the file answers in an afternoon; one who does not spends weeks chasing copies, often from abroad.
How many owners the association serves shapes how much paper it produces: 275 residences of two to four bedrooms plus den across 26 storeys; construction at floor 15 as of August 2026; phased delivery late 2026 through 2028.
Read it against the Kempinski Residences Miami Design District dossier for the nearest comparison.
Three papers prove ownership. The deed, recorded in the county’s official records, with its instrument number. The owner’s title insurance policy, which usually arrives weeks after closing and is worth chasing if it does not. The final closing statement, which shows what was paid, to whom, and every credit applied. Where title is held through a trust or a company, add the formation papers, a current certificate of good standing and the resolution that authorised the purchase.
The developer whose deed you receive: Savanna, New York based real estate investment manager formed in 1992; construction by SavCon and Gilbane; exclusive sales and marketing by Compass Development Marketing Group.
The declaration, the articles and the bylaws as finally recorded, with every amendment since; the rules the board adopts; the current budget with its reserve schedule; the master insurance certificate; and, as they are produced, the structural inspection and reserve study reports and the minutes of owners’ meetings. The recorded declaration can differ from the draft read before contract, so the recorded version is the one to keep. Where an operator or a brand is involved, add the management or licence agreement and any shared facilities agreement, since those set what owners pay for services they did not choose.
Who runs Olara: No brand or operator is recorded for this building. What the budget pays to keep running: Over 80,000 square feet centred on a private sixth floor deck; dining by Jose Andres Group including an 8,500 square foot indoor and outdoor waterfront restaurant and a dockside oyster bar; private marina with resident slips, a captained fishing boat and a cruising yacht; 24 hour doorman, valet and security; resident manager and concierge.
The last part of the file is the home itself: the warranty terms and the date each period began, the signed punch list and the record of each repair, the plan of the unit as built and its finish schedule, the manuals for appliances and systems, the written assignment of any parking space, storage room or cabana, the access devices issued, and your own HO-6 policy with its declarations page. An owner who lives elsewhere part of the year leaves a copy with counsel or a manager in Miami, keeps one in digital form, and tells the association in writing who may act for them. The homes at Olara: Two assigned full sized parking spaces with EV capability per residence; twelve guest suites in the building. The desk lists the closing papers for Olara with you before the closing date, so nothing on this page has to be chased afterwards.
Closing ends the purchase. The file proves it, for as long as you own.

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.
