The closing notice gives you a date. The sixty days before it are a list. At The Ritz-Carlton Residences, South Beach, here is the list in the order it falls due.
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.
Confirm the final balance against the contract and the deposits already paid. Open or fund the account the wire will leave from, in dollars, with the bank briefed that a large wire is coming. Instruct counsel on the form of title and the closing documents. For a buyer abroad: notarizations for documents signed outside the United States take weeks; start now.
The Ritz-Carlton Residences, South Beach: The deposit schedule is held by the desk and read with you before contract.
Read it against the Kempinski Residences Miami Design District dossier for the nearest comparison.
Bind the HO-6 policy to start on the recording date; the lender wants proof before funding and a cash buyer should want it for the same reason. Open accounts for electricity, water where separately metered, and internet; some buildings carry a building-wide provider, ask which. Register with the association: the move-in packet, the elevator booking, the staff and vehicle credentials, the rules you agreed to in the declaration.
The Ritz-Carlton Residences, South Beach: More than 50,000 square feet: a private double height lobby, 24 hour doorman, concierge and valet, a Level 7 amenity floor with a private lap pool and four semi private cabanas, a Technogym fitness centre, a residents’ beach club with cabana service; restaurant and beach club programming by Jose Andres; à la carte in residence dining, personal chef, trainer, spa, childcare and pet care.
Walk the residence with the desk and a checklist against the specification: finishes, appliances, glass, terrace doors, every outlet, water pressure, the air conditioning under load. Everything unfinished goes on a punch list the developer signs with a date to cure. Verify the wire instructions by telephone to a number you already have, never to one in an email; wire fraud at closing is the most common theft in Florida real estate.
The Ritz-Carlton Residences, South Beach: Private elevator with direct entry in most residences; wrap around terraces with glass railings; ten foot ceilings; floor to ceiling windows with Miami-Dade NOA rated systems; Gaggenau appliances; Bianco Rhino marble kitchens; Covelano Silver Gold marble primary baths.
Identification for every signer, the wire confirmation, the insurance binder, the signed punch list, and the contact for the building’s manager. Keys, fobs and the parking credential come from the developer’s closing agent; the first visit to the manager’s office fixes the rest.
Nothing on this list is hard. All of it is late if it starts on day nine.

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.
