Which South Florida New Developments Are Closest to Move-In?
The move-in ready new developments in South Florida that are closest to delivery are four luxury condominiums targeting 2026 completion: Rosewood Residences Hillsboro Beach, The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Palm Beach Gardens, Rivage Bal Harbour, and The St. Regis Residences, Miami. Cipriani Residences Miami is targeting 2027. For buyers who do not want a long pre-construction wait, these are the closest paths to occupancy among South Florida’s marquee branded and design-led residences. Delivery dates, pricing, and remaining inventory are subject to change and should be verified with each development team.
Pre-Construction, Under Construction, Near Completion, Delivered — What Each Stage Means
Most buyers shopping for move-in ready new developments in South Florida encounter four stages, and they are not interchangeable.
Pre-construction is the period after sales launch but before vertical construction begins. Inventory selection is widest, deposit schedules are typically the most aggressive, and the path to closing is the longest — often three to five years.
Under construction is the active vertical build. Floors are rising, deposits continue on schedule, and pricing typically moves up as the project progresses and remaining inventory narrows.
Near completion is the stage most buyers in this guide are asking about. The building is topped off or nearly so, interior work is underway, and the developer is preparing for temporary or final certificate of occupancy. Move-in is generally in sight within 12 months, though buyers should verify the projected delivery quarter directly with the development team.
Delivered means the building has received its certificate of occupancy and units are closing. Buyers at this stage choose from remaining developer inventory plus any early resale.
For buyers focused on 2026 new condo deliveries in Florida, the practical search is the near-completion category — projects with a publicly stated 2026 target and visibly advanced construction.
South Florida Luxury Condos Completing Soon: The 2026 and 2027 Cohort
Five projects featured by HL Real Estate Group are clustered in the 2026–2027 delivery window. Construction milestones, projected delivery quarters, and remaining inventory should be verified directly with each development team before contracting.
Rosewood Residences Hillsboro Beach — Delivery Anticipated 2027
Rosewood Residences Hillsboro Beach is a two-building project on A1A — a ten-story oceanfront tower paired with a three-story Intracoastal condominium — designed by Arquitectonica with interiors by Piet Boon and developed by The Related Group with Dezer Development. The project comprises 92 residences ranging from 2,800 to 6,400 square feet, with pricing starting at $5,950,000. The amenity program leans into wellness and sport, with His and Hers spas, two fitness centers, and a combination of tennis, pickleball, and padel courts on a single oceanfront site. Hillsboro Beach itself is one of the quieter enclaves between Boca Raton and Pompano Beach.
The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Palm Beach Gardens — Targeting 2026
The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Palm Beach Gardens takes a different shape: 106 estate residences across seven floors on fourteen acres of Intracoastal waterfront, with a private marina. Architecture is by Spina O’Rourke + Partners with interiors by The Decorators Unlimited; Catalfumo Companies is the developer. Residences range from 2,875 to 4,575 square feet at $4,500,000 to $8,000,000. Floor plans favor great-room layouts framed by panoramic Intracoastal views, with floor-to-ceiling triple-panel impact glass and oversized terraces. For buyers who want a low-density, gated, marina-anchored alternative to a tower, this is the project to watch in northern Palm Beach County.
Rivage Bal Harbour — Delivery Anticipated 2027
Rivage Bal Harbour, developed by Two Roads Development with architecture by SOM and interiors by Rottet Studio, is one of the most rarefied projects in the 2026 cohort. The building delivers 56 residences across 25 floors, with floor plans from 3,284 to 12,603 square feet — single-family-estate scale in a tower. Residences are priced from approximately $10 million, with the majority ranging between $15 million and $25 million. The Penthouse Collection consists of just two estate-style residences that occupy the uppermost floors of the 25-story tower, priced from $40 million to $75 million. Each residence has direct private-elevator entry, ten-foot ceilings, terraces up to twelve feet deep, custom Sub-Zero and Wolf kitchens, and a two-car private garage. The amenity program includes a serviced beach club, signature oceanfront dining, and a spa with hammam and plunge pools.
The St. Regis Residences, Miami — Delivery Anticipated Late 2027
The St. Regis Residences, Miami at 1809 Brickell Avenue is Robert A.M. Stern Architects’ Miami residential tower, with interiors by Rockwell Group, landscape design by Switzerland’s Enea Garden Design, and development by Related Group and Integra Investments. It delivers 152 residences across 50 floors, sized from 2,616 to 3,712 square feet, at $3,900,000 to $9,000,000. The amenity program includes approximately 50,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor amenity space, an on-property private marina, an in-building restaurant by chef Fabio Trabocchi, and signature St. Regis butler service. Among near completion condos in Miami, this is one of the most architecturally pedigreed in the cycle.
Cipriani Residences Miami — Targeting 2027
Cipriani Residences Miami sits on South Miami Avenue in Brickell, designed by Arquitectonica with development by Mast Capital. At 80 floors and 397 units, it is the largest project in this guide, with floor plans from 1,194 to 3,495 square feet and stated pricing from $1,600,000 to $7,000,000 — the lowest entry price among the five featured here. The Cipriani collaboration centers the experience: an exclusive on-site Cipriani restaurant, 24-hour in-home Cipriani catering, and reservable private dining rooms catered by Cipriani. Wellness includes a four-level center with sauna and ice plunge. Cipriani is targeting 2027 delivery, one cycle behind the 2026 cohort but still ahead of most South Florida pre-construction launches now selling.
What Buyers Should Compare Before Contracting
The temptation in a near-completion search is to optimize for delivery date alone. Sophisticated buyers compare more carefully.
Pricing and pricing trajectory. Late-stage developer pricing on remaining inventory often reflects the most desirable remaining floor plates — high floors, premium views, line preference. Buyers should request a current developer price sheet rather than rely on launch-era figures.
Floor plan and residence size. The five projects span a wide footprint range, from the 1,194-square-foot entry plans at Cipriani to the 12,603-square-foot top residences at Rivage. The right plan depends on whether the home is a primary residence, seasonal residence, pied-à-terre, or trophy.
Developer track record and design pedigree. The teams behind these five projects include Arquitectonica, SOM, Robert A.M. Stern Architects, Spina O’Rourke + Partners, Piet Boon, Rockwell Group, Rottet Studio, and Enea Garden Design.
Brand affiliation and service model. Branded residences carry licensing structures, service standards, and operating fees that vary considerably. Buyers should request the brand-services scope and any associated fees from each development team.
Delivery timeline. A “2026 delivery” can mean Q1 2026 or Q4 2026. Buyers should ask the development team for the current projected certificate of occupancy window in writing.
Deposit structure. Deposit schedules in South Florida vary by project and stage. Late-stage buyers may face accelerated schedules. Confirm with the development team.
Views and orientation. Direct ocean, Intracoastal, bay, river, and skyline orientations have different price points within the same building. Buyers should confirm view orientation by line.
Location and submarket. Hillsboro Beach, Palm Beach Gardens, Bal Harbour, and Brickell are very different submarkets. Drive times, dining, and seasonal patterns vary.
Rental policy. Short-term and seasonal rental rules vary significantly between branded and unbranded buildings. Buyers planning to rent should request the rental policy and any branded-program rental terms in writing.
Resale considerations. Buyers should evaluate resale assumptions as part of their broader plan and consult their own advisors. This article is informational and does not constitute legal, tax, or financial advice.
