Life at Okan Tower
Downtown Miami's Sixth Street corridor has become one of the densest emerging high-rise areas in the city — connected to Brightline MiamiCentral Station with adjacent projects including 600 Miami Worldcenter, Downtown 6th by Melo Group, and Oak Row Equities' planned tower.
Florida's Tallest Building
Okan Tower will be Florida's tallest building when complete in 2027 — surpassing the 868-foot Panorama Tower at nearly 908 feet. Limited by FAA height restrictions for Miami International Airport flight paths.
Turkey's First US Investment
First U.S. development from Turkish conglomerate Okan Group — bringing nearly five decades of construction, tourism, education, health, and hospitality expertise to Miami.
Tulip-Inspired Design
Architecture by Robert Behar of Behar Font & Partners (Miami-based). The curved apex resembling unopened tulip petals honors Turkey's national flower — Robert Behar's grandmother was born in Istanbul.
Hilton Hotel Brand
316-key Hilton Miami Bayfront Hotel anchors the tower, with 236 additional condo-hotel residences (floors 36-50) managed by Hilton Hotels & Resorts.
Sky Residences Tier
163 Sky Residences (floors 51-70) feature owners-only amenities separate from the hotel program. Top floors house 4 duplex penthouses.
Okan Tower 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 Okan Tower 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. Okan Tower 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 Okan Tower
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.
