The sixty days before keys at Villa Miami: the closing wire, the walkthrough, utilities, and what to book early

The closing notice gives you a date. The sixty days before it are a list. At Villa Miami, 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.

Days 60 To 30

Money and paper.

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.

Villa Miami: The deposit schedule is held by the desk and read with you before contract.

The Villa Miami dossier holds the developer’s published record. Read it against the Kempinski Residences Miami Design District dossier for the nearest comparison.

Days 30 To 10

Insurance, utilities, the building.

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.

Days 10 To 1

The walkthrough and the wire.

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.

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.

The Day

What to carry.

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.

Before You Act On Any Of This

Before you act on any of this

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.
