A buyer’s guide to deposits, delivery, carrying costs and resale at Villa Miami

Four questions come up in every first conversation about Villa Miami. 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.

Villa Miami is at 700 NE 29th Street, East Edgewater · bay frontage on two sides of the building · 360 degree views across the bay, the ocean and the skyline · the Baywalk at the door, the Design District a few minutes west. The Villa Miami 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: Terra with One Thousand Group · developer of record 710 Edge Property LLC. Brand: Villa, under licence from Major Food Group · the building programmed and serviced by MFG · the restaurant, dock and helipad sit in commercial components sold separately, so their operation is not guaranteed. Architecture: ODP Architects · a cast bronze exoskeleton over a faceted glass amenity podium. Interiors: Charles and Co, Vicky Charles.

Compare as you read: Anantara Residences Miami and Alba Palm Beach 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 Villa Miami 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.

55 floors, 49 of them residential, three of club · ~70 homes by the public record, every one a half floor or a full floor · a three level penthouse at the crown. 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.

~20,000 SF over three club levels by Charles and Co · a Lake Como style floating pool vessel on the bay · MFG restaurant with private dining for residents · juice bar and coffee lounge · Italian thermal spa with plunge pools, steam and sauna · Technogym fitness with yoga, pilates and boxing studios · screening room, game room, library, boardroom · private vaults · on site estate manager and curator. Every amenity has a line in the first budget: staffing, insurance, reserves, and any brand or management fee. Villa, under licence from Major Food Group · the building programmed and serviced by MFG · the restaurant, dock and helipad sit in commercial components sold separately, so their operation is not guaranteed 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.

Villa Mezzo half floors of 3 to 4 bedrooms, ~2,940 to ~2,970 SF interior · Villa Piano full floors of 4 to 5 bedrooms, ~5,900 to ~5,960 SF interior · Villa Doppio duplexes · two terraces on every home, sunrise and sunset · 10 to 11 foot ceilings. 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.
