For the household leaving a Manhattan condominium for the ocean itself, used to an attorney led closing and a board file, and now reading an island where the developer sale works on a different clock.
This page explains. Whether the building suits you is a separate conversation. Contact the desk at Miami Dossier for the current position on any building we cover.
Three Miami Beach buildings on our file fit three different New York households. The Perigon is the architecture decision: about 73 homes by OMA at 5333 Collins Avenue, From $12,500,000, developer published entry price as carried on the live dossier, verified 2026-09-19. The Shoreclub Private Collection is the collector’s building: about 49 homes behind a landmarked facade at 1901 Collins Avenue, From $4,850,000, developer published entry price as carried on the live dossier, verified 2026-09-19. The Ritz-Carlton Residences, South Beach is the smallest: 30 homes over 15 storeys at 1671 Collins Avenue, delivery planned 2027, with no published entry price. The Florida mechanics are below as questions for counsel. The beach is mapped on the Miami Beach zone pages, with South Beach and Mid-Beach read separately.
The same five questions, from the developers’ published material only.

Position: 5333 Collins Avenue, between the Atlantic and Biscayne Bay, with about 200 linear feet of shoreline on both sides of the property, on the widest and most secluded sweep of beachfront on the island. Operator or brand: no hotel brand; Starwood Capital Group and Mast Capital develop, OMA is the architect, Tara Bernerd and Partners holds the interiors and Gustafson Porter and Bowman the landscape. The full record is on the Perigon dossier and in The Perigon: what to know before you buy.
The Shoreclub Private Collection. Price point: From $4,850,000, developer published entry price as carried on the live dossier, verified 2026-09-19. Delivery: no date in the material on our file.

The full read is The Ritz-Carlton Residences, South Beach: what to know before you buy.
The Perigon suits the household that buys the building itself: a first residential work by OMA in Miami Beach, diamond shaped tiers, wraparound terraces and a resident only oceanfront restaurant, with no hotel program sharing the site. What you give up is a published calendar; the material carries no delivery date to plan a move around. The Shoreclub suits the household that wants a collection, not a tower programme: about 49 homes, a preserved facade on the street and a beach club behind it. What you give up is scale; a low count building carries its amenity ledger across few owners, and the first budget is part of the purchase. The Ritz-Carlton suits the household that wants 30 homes with a hotel next door and a delivery planned for 2027. What you give up is a published entry price; selection starts from a release on request. The first calls are framed in who should I call about buying in South Beach, and the sibling reads are relocating from New York to Brickell or Edgewater and relocating from New York to Downtown Miami.
A New York buyer is used to a closing that runs through attorneys and, on a resale, a board package. A Florida developer sale runs on its own documents. The buyer signs a purchase agreement and receives the condominium documents, and Florida’s cancellation window for a developer sale runs 15 days from signing and receiving those documents; that window, not the weeks after it, is when the budget, the declaration and the reserved rights get read with counsel. On a finished building, the association’s estoppel certificate states what is owed on the home and is ordered for closing, a control the New York file has no exact twin for. The habit transfers: counsel first, documents in writing, dates counted from receipt. The order the documents arrive in does not match the New York sequence, and assembling the equivalent file inside the window is the work.
How the home is held, in a personal name, through an entity or in a trust, decides privacy, liability and tax treatment, and it is counsel’s call, made before closing. The second file is time and place: New York taxes its residents’ income and Florida does not, so when New York residency ends turns on where the household actually lives, votes and spends its days, not on the Miami deed alone, as read in does buying a Miami condo make you a Florida resident. Florida’s homestead position follows a primary residence the owner lives in at the start of the tax year, so a delivery planned for 2027 sets the first year the question can arise for the Ritz-Carlton buyer, while the other two buildings carry no published date to plan from. A household keeping the New York home asks counsel how that reads before the contract, while the holding and the calendar can still be chosen freely.
