Five Miami Towers With No Reported Construction Activity: How to Read a Pause
Miami Condos That Sold for Less: The County Record
The $86 Million Recorded Sale, and Two Larger Contracts Still Without a Deed
A market that quotes contracts as records is telling you something about itself. Here is the distinction, and why we keep it.
By Josh Stein ·
Start with the building
Every building, on the record
Closed sales from the county roll, HOA fees, delivery dates and what to check before you offer — building by building.
Counts are pages published on this site, verified 9 October 2026.
The county record
What Miami actually costs
Median price per square foot in 2026, from 6,900 closed sales in the Miami-Dade county record. Not asking prices — what people actually paid.
The files
What the county record shows, project by project.
Every case below was found in the public record and corrected on this site.
Coral Gables. There is no building to photograph — the site is a vacant lot.
Priced, never built719 Biltmore Way
$16,896,600Three named residences carried asking prices for a building that has never been constructed. The county records a vacant lot with $0 building value in 2024, 2025 and 2026.
Miami-Dade County roll · corrected 26 Aug 2026
Miami Beach. No declaration has been recorded, so no residence exists to show.
No declaration existsTwenty-Nine Indian Creek
$13,465,000Four residences with firm prices and a deposit schedule. There is no condominium declaration for the site and no unit folio for any of them — and the street address on the page did not exist either.
Miami-Dade County roll · corrected 27 Aug 2026
Downtown Miami. Construction on the tower itself has been stopped since 2024.
On hold since 2024Legacy at Miami Worldcenter
Foreclosure filedStill marketed in places as a live pre-construction opportunity. The Real Deal reported on 1 October 2025 that construction had been stopped since 2024 and the project had been through foreclosure proceedings.
The Real Deal · 1 Oct 2025
Developer rendering. The building has not broken ground.
Has not broken groundEdition Residences, Edgewater
2026 → unstatedSold as a 2026 delivery. Groundbreaking had slipped to “now expected in Q3 2026” from an original mid-2023 plan. A tower that breaks ground in Q3 2026 cannot be delivered in 2026.
Florida YIMBY · 6 Dec 2025The Miami Resale Record
What owners paid, and what happened when they sold
