A buyer’s guide to deposits, delivery, carrying costs and resale at Rivage Bal Harbour

Four questions come up in every first conversation about Rivage Bal Harbour. Here they are in order, with what the record says and what the record does not.

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.

Who This Is For

Written for the first-time Miami buyer.

Rivage Bal Harbour is at ~2.7 oceanfront acres · ~200 linear feet of private shoreline. The Rivage Bal Harbour dossier holds the developer’s published record. Read it against the Kempinski Residences Miami Design District dossier for the nearest comparison. This page is the first-time Miami buyer’s reading of it, as a framework to verify, never as a finding.

The record, in the developer’s words: Development: Related Group · Two Roads Development. Architecture: Skidmore, Owings & Merrill. Interiors: Rottet Studio. Landscape: Enea Garden Design.

Compare as you read: Alba Palm Beach and Banyan Tree Residences answer the same questions differently, and the desk holds the documents for all three.

Deposits

How the money moves before the building exists.

The developer’s deposit schedule for Rivage Bal Harbour is a contract exhibit held by the desk and read with you before signing; it is not published. Florida law requires deposits to sit in escrow, and lets a developer use amounts above ten percent for construction with the right disclosures; the question is which account, which conditions, and what the contract says if delivery is late.

From the coverageAll buildings ›
Delivery

The date, and what the date is made of.

~56 homes across 25 stories. A delivery date in a brochure is an estimate; the outside date is in the purchase agreement, and the difference between the two is where buyers get surprised. Ask for the outside date, the milestone the developer has reached today, and the penalty if the outside date passes.

Carrying Costs

What owning costs after closing.

Oceanfront pools, spa and hammam, screening room, private marina services, house cars. Every amenity has a line in the first budget: staffing, insurance, reserves, and any brand or management fee. Ask for the estimated first budget by line and for the reserve schedule; the law now watches the reserves.

Resale

Who buys second, and when.

3 to 6 bedrooms · ~3,300 to ~12,600 square feet. The second buyer is the same kind of person as the first, arriving three to five years later into a building where every neighbour closed at once. The lines that hold value are the ones the first buyers fought over. Ask which lines went first in the current release.

Four questions, one sitting, one desk.
