The exit question at South Flagler House: assignment, resale and the long hold

Nobody at the sales gallery talks about selling. This is the exit at South Flagler House, planned at the entry.

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 family-office operator.

South Flagler House is at 1355 South Flagler Drive, West Palm Beach; 3.4 acres, 28 storeys, two towers (Park Tower, Lake Tower), private porte-cochere. Read it against the Kempinski Residences Miami Design District dossier for the nearest comparison. This page is the family-office operator’s reading of it, as a framework to verify, never as a finding.

The record, in the developer’s words: Development: Related Ross, led by CEO and Chairman Stephen M. Ross. Architecture: Robert A.M. Stern Architects (architecture); Pembrooke and Ives (interiors). Position: 1355 South Flagler Drive, West Palm Beach; 3.4 acres, 28 storeys, two towers (Park Tower, Lake Tower), private porte-cochere. Residences: Park Residences (floors 1 to 3): one- and two-bedroom configurations, about 1,800 to 3,000 square feet of interior space, facing the Norton Sculpture Garden; first-floor homes with private outdoor gardens; approximately 80 percent sold.

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.

Three Exits

Assignment, resale, and the long hold.

An assignment sells the contract before the building closes, where the developer allows it and usually for a fee. A resale sells the unit after closing, into a market where every neighbour bought at the same time. The long hold ignores both and treats the home as a place, which is what it is.

South Flagler House’s own contract sets which of the three are open to you and on what terms; the desk holds it.

The Resale Question Nobody Asks At The Gallery

Who buys second.

The homes are as the dossier records. The second buyer of a home like this is the same kind of person as the first, arriving three to five years later, choosing among all the lines that close at once. The lines that hold value are the ones the first buyers fought over: the corners, the water, the floors above the neighbours.

the resale price is set by the building next door as much as by yours.

Liquidity Realities

What sells, and how fast.

New towers deliver in a wave, and the first year after closing is the year the most units are for sale at once. A buyer planning a two-year hold buys into that wave; a buyer planning ten years buys through it. The desk reads the delivery schedules of the neighbours as part of any exit plan.

Taxes And Costs At Exit

Mechanics only.

Florida has no state income tax; the federal treatment of a gain depends on how you held the property and for how long; a non-US seller meets FIRPTA withholding on the gross price. These are the shape of the exit, not its numbers; the numbers are your adviser’s. The desk introduces one.

Plan the exit at the entry. The way you take title decides the paperwork at sale.

The Exit Checklist

Five lines.

Assignment clause and fee. Resale restrictions and rights of first refusal, if any. The delivery schedule of the peers. How title is held. The adviser who handles the sale.
