— Miami Pre-Construction Condos: Watchlist

Grupo T&C Purchases Dev Site for $19M – Edgewater

Lima-based developer Grupo T&C purchased a key 37,479-square-foot development site from Groupe City in Miami’s Edgewater. Priced at $19.2 million, the assemblage includes an apartment complex, a duplex, and three houses located at 423 N.E. 27th St., plus 434 and 426 N.E. 28th St. The developer is considering multiple plans for a condo project on the site. 

Mixed-use Project at Bal Harbour Shops – Bal Harbour

It’s possible that condo owners could end up sharing their building and common areas with residents of workforce apartments at the new towers at Bal Harbour Shops, if an ordinance is passed by the Village Council this March.

Just last month, the Whitman Family had proposed building two separate towers for luxury condos and workforce housing under Florida’s Live Local Act to be part of their mixed-use development. The owner-developer proposed building 600 units (40% of which would be workforce and 60% luxury condos), a 70-room upscale hotel, and 45,700 square feet of additional retail at the premier shopping destination. 

While the council argues that luxury and workforce unit residents should be treated equally, with access to high-quality interiors and amenities for both, attorneys representing Whitman countered that those paying for million-dollar-plus units generally value their privacy, and such an ordinance would only be a setback for the project. 

Rishi Kapoor and Urbin-branded Condos 

About three dozen South American investors are suing Rishi Kapoor, ex-CEO of Location Ventures, for scamming them into paying deposits on co-living condos that won’t be built. The 33 investors are seeking nearly $10 million in compensation for their investments in the company’s Urbin-branded condos. While the prosecutor representing investors claims that his clients were defrauded by a “too good to be true” scheme, Rishi Kapoor empathizes with the buyers’ frustrations and stated he will help the court-appointed receiver maximize recovery proceeds. 

Terra’s Bulk Buyout Bid for Castle Beach Club Expires – Mid-Beach

Terra Group's record $500 million bid for buying out Castle Beach Club could stand invalidated, as contracts with most unit owners expired at the end of January. The David Martin-led development firm is still interested in buying out the aging condo building, home to about 570 units. Terra would need to acquire 95% of the units to kickstart the redevelopment process.

Located on a prime, four-acre oceanfront parcel, Castle Beach Club is zoned for a 200-foot-tall development with capacity to carry nearly 600 units. The developer can also ensure oceanfront views for more units since the site has 576 feet of beachfront. Developers Related Group & 13th Floor Investments had pulled out of a similar bid for the Mid-Beach property about a year-and-a-half ago.
