South tower delivered and sold · north tower still not on the county roll

Aria Reserve is two 62-storey towers by The Melo Group, architecture by Arquitectonica. 🔴 The south tower is finished and effectively sold: 377 of its 383 residences — 98.4% — carry a recorded arm’s-length sale, totalling $776,600,000. The grey panel above says 391 residences; the recorded condominium declaration holds 383. The north tower — 399 residences, topped off July 2025 — was reported nearing completion in April 2026 targeting Q2 2026; ⚠️ as of 26 August 2026 it has no condominium declaration on the Miami-Dade roll and no delivery has been reported in the trade record. A third phase, Aria Reserve Skyclub at 500 NE 24th Street, went before the UDRB in June 2025 at roughly 430 residences.

Key Takeaways

  • 🔴 The south tower is finished and 98.4% sold377 of its 383 residences carry a recorded arm’s-length sale, totalling $776,600,000. It is not a pre-construction purchase and has not been one since the middle of 2025. 228 homes closed in July 2025 alone, and another 131 in August.
  • 🔴 There are 383 residences in the south tower, not the 391 in the panel — and both numbers were once true — Florida YIMBY reported 391 south-tower residences at the June 2021 sales launch. By the April 2024 topping-off it was 383, and the recorded condominium declaration holds 383. The tower was announced at 391 and built at 383. The panel above is still carrying the 2021 number.
  • ⭐⭐ What it actually sold for — and it beat its own launch pricing by 43% — Median $1,578,900 and $1,076.15 per square foot, from $830,000 to $8,550,000. At launch in 2021 the developer quoted “about $750” per square foot and a $750,000 entry price. ⚠️ Those were asking prices; these are recorded sales.
  • ⭐⭐⭐ And unlike its neighbours, people who resold here made money32 arm’s-length resales, median +9.2%. Only five lost money, the worst at −17.6%. Compare two other buildings we have checked from the same delivery window: at 72 Park all three resales lost money, and at Five Park seven of nineteen did. “The Miami condo market” is not a thing you can buy.
  • ⚠️ But read the holding period correctly — The median gap between the two deeds is 0.63 years. That is not how long the money was committed — these buyers contracted in 2021 to 2023 and closed at delivery, so the real hold is closer to four years. A “+9% in seven months” reading of this building would be flattering and wrong.
  • 🔴 The north tower is the open question, and it is overdue — 399 residences, topped off July 2025, reported “nearing completion” in April 2026 with delivery anticipated Q2 2026. That quarter ended two months ago. ⚠️ As of 26 August 2026 there is no north-tower condominium declaration on the county roll and no reported delivery — which is an absence of evidence, not evidence of a problem.
  • ⚠️ The address on this page is the vacant land, not the building — The page header says 711 NE 23rd Terrace. That folio is vacant commercial land. The 383 residences are recorded at 700 NE 24th Street, and the north tower is reported at 725 NE 24th Street. Use 700 NE 24th Street to search the public record.
  • ⭐ Nobody here has been foreclosed on — Across every recorded transaction in all 383 homes there is not one lender sale or in-lieu-of-foreclosure transfer. In a building that closed 359 homes in eight weeks, that is worth knowing.

Aria Reserve is two 62-storey towers by The Melo Group on five waterfront acres in Edgewater, designed by Arquitectonica. The south tower is finished and effectively sold. The north tower is not yet on the county record. This page is rebuilt on the Miami-Dade roll and the dated trade record, not on the sales material.

Is Aria Reserve built? The south tower is. The north is the question

DateWhat happened
17 June 2021Sales launched. Residences quoted from $750,000 to $2,000,000, penthouses to $12,000,000, at about $750 per square foot. South tower 391 residences. Completion expected 2024
10 April 2024South tower topped off at 62 storeys. Now described as 383 residences. Reported over 95% sold, north tower 85%
March 2025North tower passes the halfway mark, slab work around the 38th floor
June–August 2025The south tower closes: 359 residences recorded in two months
July 2025North tower tops off
June 2025Third phase, Aria Reserve Skyclub at 500 NE 24th Street, goes before the Urban Development Review Board — 49 storeys, about 430 residences
6 April 2026Florida YIMBY: north tower “nearing completion”, delivery anticipated Q2 2026
26 August 2026🔴 No north-tower declaration on the Miami-Dade roll. No delivery reported.

⚠️ Said carefully, because it matters. We have found no report of the north tower delivering in Florida YIMBY, PROFILEmiami or The Real Deal since the 6 April 2026 piece, and the county holds no declaration for it. Neither of those is proof of a delay. The Property Appraiser routinely lags a finished building by many months — the same pattern is on record at E11EVEN, 2200 Brickell, Oasis Hallandale and NoMad Wynwood — and a tower can deliver quietly. What we can say is that the last dated evidence puts delivery in a quarter that has now passed, and nothing has confirmed it since.

⚠️ One arithmetic note. A figure of 1,172 residences across all three phases has circulated, including on an earlier version of this page. Against a verified 782 in the two towers, Florida YIMBY’s ~430 for Skyclub gives roughly 1,212. The third phase has not been approved or built, so treat any total as provisional.

The two towers

Twin towers on Biscayne Bay in Edgewater. The south tower is finished; the north one is the subject of the section further down.

What the south tower actually sold for

Median$1,578,900

Four140$2,560,450$1,116
Six (penthouse)2$8,075,000$1,426

Set that against what was quoted at launch. In June 2021 Melo quoted residences “from $750,000 up to $2,000,000” at “about $750” per square foot. The building delivered at a median $1,076.15 per square foot — about 43% above that launch average — with a median price of $1,578,900 and a top sale of $8,550,000. ⚠️ Launch numbers are asking prices and these are recorded sales, so it is not a like for like comparison. It is, however, the difference between what buyers were told in 2021 and what the building actually transacted at.

🔴 And note how fast it happened. 228 residences closed in July 2025 and 131 in August — 359 of the 411 recorded sales inside eight weeks. That matters for anyone buying here now, because it means a resale is competing against several hundred near-identical homes that all closed at developer pricing within one summer.

The resales — and why this building is not like its neighbours

Because the south tower closed in a single wave and some owners have already sold again, there is a real repeat-sale record here barely a year after delivery.

Arm’s-length repeat sales32 (34 including two same-summer round trips, below)
Median change+9.2%
Mean change+7.6%
Best+33.7%
Worst−17.6%
Sold at a loss5 of 32 — 15.6%
Median gap between deeds0.63 years
Foreclosure or lender salesNone. Not one, anywhere in the building

⚠️ Two of the thirty-four have been excluded from those headline figures, and you should know why. One home changed hands twice in six days (+39.0%) and another in 28 days (+23.9%), both in the middle of the closing wave. Round trips that fast are almost always contract assignments or double closings at delivery, not resales in any market sense, and treating them as investment returns would be misleading. The findings hold without them: filtered to deeds at least 90 days apart, 31 pairs still give a median of +9.0% and the same worst case of −17.6%.

⚠️ And read the holding period properly, because this is where a page like this usually misleads. The median 0.63 years is the gap between two deeds. It is not how long the money was at risk. These buyers contracted in 2021, 2022 or 2023, put deposits down against a five-milestone schedule, and closed at delivery in 2025. The real holding period is closer to four years, and a +9% gain over four years is a very different proposition from +9% in seven months.

⭐⭐ Now the comparison that actually tells you something. We have run this same analysis on other Miami condominiums delivering in the same window:

BuildingResalesResult
Aria Reserve South32Median +9.2%. Five lost money
Five Park South Beach19Seven lost money; worst −20.3% in six months
72 Park Miami Beach3All three lost money — −1.8%, −13.3% and −34.9%

Same city, same delivery window, same kind of buyer, opposite outcomes. Anyone who tells you “the Miami condo market” is doing one thing is not looking at the deeds. The building you choose is doing considerably more work than the market is.

The north tower, and what the record does not yet show

The north tower is 399 residences over 62 storeys at 725 NE 24th Street. It topped off in July 2025 and Florida YIMBY reported it “nearing completion” on 6 April 2026, with delivery anticipated in Q2 2026. It was reported 85% sold as far back as April 2024.

🔴 As of 26 August 2026, the Miami-Dade roll holds no condominium declaration for it. We enumerated the Edgewater declaration series folio by folio: it runs from 01-3230-100 to 01-3230-116, and the only Aria entry in it is Aria Reserve South. There are therefore no folios, no assessed values and no recorded sales for any north-tower residence.

⚠️ That is a statement about the tax roll, not about the building. Buyers close against a declaration recorded with the Clerk of Court long before the Property Appraiser splits the parcel, so homes may well have closed. What it does mean is that there is no independent price evidence for the north tower at all — and, given the south tower next door has 411 recorded sales you can check, that asymmetry is worth using. If you are being shown a north-tower residence, ask for the south-tower comparable and check it yourself.

Three addresses, one development

This development is referred to by at least three addresses, and only one of them answers to the county.

AddressWhat it actually is
700 NE 24th StreetThe county address of all 383 south-tower residences
725 NE 24th StreetThe north tower, as reported by Florida YIMBY
711 NE 23rd Terrace⚠️ The address in this page’s header. It resolves to one parcel of vacant commercial land, 148,314 sq ft, assessed $55,625,998 — the site, not the homes
500 NE 24th StreetThe proposed third phase, Aria Reserve Skyclub

If you search the Property Appraiser for 711 NE 23rd Terrace you will find a vacant lot and conclude the record does not exist. Search 700 NE 24th Street.

Amenities

Pools, bayfront gardens, lounges and a children’s room, spread across the podium the two towers share.

Who this suits, and who it does not

It suits a buyer who wants to see the evidence before committing. There are 411 recorded sales in the south tower and 32 arm’s-length resales. You can check what the home two floors below sold for, twice. That is unusual, and it is the single best reason to look at this building rather than one that has not delivered.

It suits a buyer who wants scale and amenity. Five waterfront acres, two acres of amenity deck, a marina, tennis and basketball courts, an observatory, restaurants — carried by 782 homes rather than forty. Per owner, that is a great deal more building than a boutique tower can fund.

It suits badly a buyer who was told the south tower is a pre-construction opportunity. It is 98.4% sold. Anything there is a resale, with a seller on the other side of it — a different negotiation entirely. Ask which tower, and ask whether you are buying from the developer or from an owner.

It suits badly a buyer who needs the north tower on a date. Its delivery was anticipated in a quarter that has already ended, and there is no county record of it yet. That may mean nothing at all. It does mean you should not plan a move, a lease end or a tax deadline around it without a contractual remedy.

And it suits badly a short-horizon flipper. The median resale here gained 9.2% — but on money committed at contract three or four years earlier, and against several hundred comparable homes that all closed within one summer. Five of thirty-two sellers lost money, one of them 17.6%.

Five things to establish before you commit:

  • Which tower, and developer or resale — the answer changes everything else.
  • What the same line and size closed at in 2025, under 700 NE 24th Street. It is public.
  • For the north tower: the current delivery date in writing, with a remedy, and when the declaration will be recorded.
  • The association budget and first full year of actual operating costs. Two acres of amenity, a marina and a restaurant are not cheap to run.
  • What the third phase would mean for you — Skyclub is unbuilt, but if it proceeds you will live beside a 49-storey construction site.

Aria Reserve Miami — Frequently Asked Questions

Is Aria Reserve Miami finished?

The south tower is — it topped off in April 2024 and 377 of its 383 residences have recorded sales, 98.4%, totalling $776,600,000. The north tower is not confirmed. It topped off in July 2025 and was reported nearing completion in April 2026 with delivery anticipated in Q2 2026, but as of 26 August 2026 it has no condominium declaration on the county roll and no delivery has been reported.

How many units are in Aria Reserve?

782 across both towers — 383 in the south and 399 in the north. The panel at the top of this page says 391, which was the June 2021 sales-launch figure for the south tower; by the April 2024 topping-off it was 383, and the recorded declaration holds 383. A proposed third phase, Aria Reserve Skyclub, would add roughly 430 more.

What have units at Aria Reserve sold for?

In the south tower: 411 recorded sales totalling $776,600,000, at a median of $1,578,900 and $1,076.15 per square foot, ranging from $830,000 to $8,550,000. By size, medians run $1,007,900 for a one-bedroom, $1,381,400 for a two, $1,560,450 for a three and $2,560,450 for a four. 🔴 There are no recorded sales at all for the north tower.

Have people made money reselling at Aria Reserve?

Mostly yes, which makes it unusual. 32 arm’s-length resales, median +9.2%, best +33.7%, worst −17.6%; five of the thirty-two lost money. ⚠️ But the money was committed at contract in 2021–2023, not at the closing date, so the real holding period is about four years. For contrast, at 72 Park all three resales lost money and at Five Park seven of nineteen did.

Why does the panel say 391 units when you say 383?

Because both were true at different times. Florida YIMBY reported 391 south-tower residences at the June 2021 launch, including 15 penthouses. By the April 2024 topping-off, PROFILEmiami reported 383, and the recorded condominium declaration holds 383 — consistent with penthouses being combined during construction. The tower was announced at 391 and built at 383.

What is the address of Aria Reserve?

⚠️ It has several. The county records all 383 south-tower residences at 700 NE 24th Street. The north tower is reported at 725 NE 24th Street, and the proposed third phase at 500 NE 24th Street. The 711 NE 23rd Terrace address in this page’s header resolves to a parcel of vacant commercial land, not to any home. Search 700 NE 24th Street.

Has anyone been foreclosed on at Aria Reserve?

No. Across every recorded transaction in all 383 south-tower homes there is not a single lender sale or in-lieu-of-foreclosure transfer. In a building that closed 359 homes in eight weeks that is a meaningful absence — though it is also a very young record, and one year is not a cycle.

When will the Aria Reserve north tower be ready?

Delivery was anticipated in the second quarter of 2026 as of Florida YIMBY’s 6 April 2026 report; it topped off in July 2025. That quarter has passed and nothing has confirmed delivery. ⚠️ The tax roll routinely lags a finished building by months, so this is an absence of evidence rather than evidence of a delay — but get a current date, in writing, with a remedy attached.

Interested in buying at Aria Reserve Miami?

The south tower is finished and 98.4% sold — anything available there is a resale, not a pre-construction purchase. The north tower is a separate question. Talk to Josh Stein about which one you are actually being offered, and about what the 411 recorded sales say a residence here is worth.

🔴 The deposit schedule that used to sit here — reservation, contract, groundbreaking, 20th floor, top off — has been removed. Every one of those milestones is in the past for the south tower, which topped off in April 2024, and for the north tower, which topped off in July 2025. Any deposit structure still on offer applies to a different phase and must come from the developer’s contract, in writing, not from a website.
