Two policies cover every Florida condominium: the building’s and yours. At Villa Miami, here is where one stops and the other starts, and why the date matters.
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.
The association insures the structure and the common elements under a master policy paid through the budget. The owner insures the inside of the unit, the finishes, contents and liability under an HO-6 policy, bought separately. Where the line sits is in the declaration: in Florida it is usually the unfinished walls, which means your floors and your kitchen are yours to insure.
Villa Miami: 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.. Finishes of that kind are the owner’s policy.
The Villa Miami dossier holds the developer’s published record. Read it against the Kempinski Residences Miami Design District dossier for the nearest comparison.
Windstorm is the premium that moves the budget; the association’s quote is in the first budget and its deductible is a percentage of value, not a fixed sum. Flood is a separate policy, required by lenders in a flood zone and sensible without one; the building’s elevation certificate says where it stands.
Villa Miami: 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 position decides the zone; ask for the elevation certificate.
A lender requires proof of insurance before funding; a cash buyer should want it for the same reason. The HO-6 binder is arranged two to three weeks before the closing date with the unit details, and it starts the day the deed records.
What does the master policy cover and what is its windstorm deductible? What is the building’s flood zone and elevation? Which agents have written HO-6 policies in this building? The desk holds the first budget and introduces an agent for the rest.
Insurance is the one cost that is never in the rendering.

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.
The Miami Dossier team works for the buyer, not the developer. Every agent on Samuel Strauch’s team represents buyers in Miami pre-construction.
A person replies within 24 hours, usually much sooner. On weekends, back on Monday morning.
