Life at Delano Residences Miami
Downtown Miami's emergence as a supertall corridor is anchored by PMG's Waldorf Astoria (1,049 ft, completing 2026) and now Delano Residences. Supertalls can only be built in a small Downtown-financial district zone due to FAA height restrictions from Miami International Airport.
Miami's 2nd Supertall
Delano Residences will be Miami's 2nd supertall tower at 985 feet — just above the 984-foot threshold defined by the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat. Waldorf Astoria at 1,049 ft is the first.
First Public Observation Deck
Miami's first-ever public observation deck at 850 feet — both residents and visitors can experience panoramic Biscayne Bay and Miami skyline views.
First Delano-Branded Residential
Delano Residences is the first-ever standalone Delano-branded residential property. The historic Delano Miami Beach (opened 1947) is the brand's flagship hotel known for design and nightlife.
Sky Pool at 800 ft + Rose Bar
Iconic Sky Pool perched 800 feet above the city, the legendary Delano Rose Bar, two signature restaurants including a sky restaurant — distinctive vertical resort experience.
Delano Beach Club Access
Owners receive exclusive Beach Club access at Delano Miami Beach — the historic brand flagship — connecting downtown urban living with the iconic Miami Beach destination.
Delano Residences Miami Investment & Market Outlook
Why Downtown Miami Pre-Construction Outperforms
South Florida pre-construction has historically delivered double-digit appreciation between contract and delivery, especially in branded residences. Downtown Miami specifically has seen sustained demand from international buyers seeking US dollar-denominated real estate, tax advantages from Florida's no-income-tax structure, and currency hedging against home-market inflation.
Branded residences like Delano Residences Miami typically command 25–35% price premiums over comparable non-branded inventory in the same submarket, and resale price retention has consistently outpaced the broader Miami condo index over the past decade.
Friends & Family Pricing
As pre-construction specialists with direct developer relationships, we offer qualified buyers access to friends-and-family pricing — typically 4–8% below current public release pricing — along with extended deposit schedules, custom unit selection, and priority on the most desirable exposures and floors.
Deposit Structure
Standard Downtown Miami pre-construction deposit structures range from 20% at contract to 50% by delivery, with milestone payments at groundbreaking, top-off, and certificate of occupancy. Delano Residences Miami follows the Downtown Miami market standard. Our team can walk you through the full deposit schedule and any current developer incentives reducing the at-contract deposit requirement.
How to Reserve a Residence at Delano Residences Miami
Pre-construction purchases follow a different path than resale transactions. Here's what to expect, step by step.
-
01
Initial Consultation
We start with a 30-minute call to understand your goals — primary residence, investment, legacy asset — and walk you through current availability, pricing tiers, and the floor plans best suited to your needs.
-
02
Floor Plan Selection & Reservation
Once you've narrowed your selection, a refundable reservation deposit (typically $25,000–$100,000) holds your residence for 14–30 days while contracts are prepared. You'll receive the full developer reservation package and the most current pricing for your specific unit.
-
03
Contract & First Deposit
The purchase contract is executed with the developer, and the first deposit (typically 10–20% of the purchase price) is wired to the developer's escrow account at a Florida-licensed institution. All funds are protected under Florida pre-construction escrow law until milestones are reached.
-
04
Construction Milestones
Subsequent deposits are released as construction reaches defined milestones — typically groundbreaking, top-off, and certificate of occupancy. You'll receive quarterly construction updates, photo documentation, and the option to tour the unit once interiors are roughed in.
-
05
Closing & Delivery
At closing, the final balance is funded (cash or financing via approved lenders), title transfers, and you receive keys. Closing typically occurs 30–60 days after the developer issues the certificate of occupancy. Move-in coordination, designer access, and Mercedes-Benz/Bentley/Armani concierge enrollment all happen at this stage.
