This project operates under a co-ownership model with eight owners per unit, ideal for buyers seeking a fully managed, ready-to-use property in Brickell with predictable returns. Each investor acquires a 1/8 fractional ownership alongside seven other owners, with the purchase price, expenses, and maintenance costs divided proportionally. All owners are listed on the property title through a master holding company, ensuring legal security and transparency. The developer is also one of the owners and manages the entire operation—including reservations, cleaning, maintenance, and day-to-day management—so investors are completely hands-off. Each share includes 45 days of use per year, which can be fully used, partially used and partially rented, or entirely rented to generate income. The project offers guaranteed rental income regardless of actual occupancy, providing financial stability. Pricing varies by season and demand, allowing buyers to select high-demand periods such as December (Art Basel, Christmas, and New Year), March (Ultra Music Festival), June (World Cup), and other peak Miami dates. Overall, this is an ideal solution for those who want a furnished, income-generating property in Brickell with professional management and no operational complexity.
