Faena House Miami Beach
Faena House Miami Beach
Faena House is a singular achievement in Miami Beach luxury — 18 residences across 18 stories, each occupying an entire floor. Designed by Foster + Partners for the Faena Group and Len Blavatnik, it is the residential centerpiece of the acclaimed Faena District.
The building's restrained exterior and expansive glass facades frame panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean and Biscayne Bay, while its one-residence-per-floor configuration ensures an unparalleled sense of seclusion.
With direct ocean frontage, world-class dining by Alain Ducasse steps away, and a permanent position among the most coveted buildings in the market, Faena House is not simply a residence — it is a statement of intent.

Our View on Faena House Miami Beach
Faena House represents the rare intersection of world-class architecture, absolute exclusivity, and cultural significance. Its 18-unit inventory and Foster + Partners pedigree place it in a category that newer buildings cannot replicate.
For buyers considering Faena House, the key consideration is availability. Units trade infrequently, and when they do, the window to act is narrow. We advise qualified buyers to register interest early.
From an investment perspective, Faena House benefits from structural scarcity and a location within the Faena District that continues to appreciate in cultural relevance.

Miami Real Estate Market Intelligence
Market Context: The Miami-to-Northeast and Miami-to-California migration has converted from pandemic-era spike to structural relocation. Miami’s millionaire population grew approximately 78% between 2013 and 2023. Geographic constraint is binding: ocean, bay, and Everglades pin supply. December 2025 medians: Miami Beach condo $620K, Brickell condo $580K. Luxury condominium price per sq ft: $1,200-$3,500+, extending to $2,000-$4,500+ on Fisher Island and $1,800-$4,000+ at South of Fifth.
Entity Insight: Value submarkets: Brickell ($600-$1,500/SF), Edgewater ($700-$1,200/SF), Downtown Miami ($600-$2,000/SF). Trophy submarkets: Fisher Island, Sunny Isles Beach ($1,500-$3,500/SF, dense branded-residence inventory), South of Fifth. Branded benchmarks include Four Seasons Surf Club ($2,200-$3,500/SF), St. Regis Sunny Isles ($1,800-$2,800/SF), and Porsche Design Tower ($1,600-$2,400/SF). Miami now carries more hotel-branded residences than any other Western Hemisphere city.
Buyer Signal: Structural inputs compound: no state income tax (vs. 10.9% NY, 13.3% CA), no estate tax, 78% decade millionaire growth, and construction-cost inflation. Current pre-construction inventory was financed and broken ground before 20-50% tariffs landed on steel, aluminum, concrete, and lumber, effectively the last tranche of pre-tariff pricing. Florida SB 264 restricts acquisitions by nationals of certain countries within 10 miles of military installations and must be screened at contract stage for international buyers.

Miami Real Estate FAQs
What are Miami’s current condominium medians?
December 2025: Miami Beach $620K, Brickell $580K. Luxury condominium stock runs $1,200-$3,500+ per sq ft, extending to $2,000-$4,500 on Fisher Island and $1,800-$4,000 at South of Fifth.
Why is Miami attracting UHNW capital structurally?
Zero state income tax (versus NY 10.9%, CA 13.3%), no estate tax, a 78% decade growth in the millionaire population (2013-2023), and geographic constraints that cap long-run supply. These are structural inputs, not cyclical.
What does the construction-cost tariff environment mean for current inventory?
Current pre-construction inventory was financed and broke ground before 20-50% tariffs landed on steel, aluminum, concrete, and lumber. Replacement-cost pricing on the next development cycle is expected to rise materially. Current allocations represent the last tranche of pre-tariff pricing.
What is Florida SB 264 and how does it affect international buyers?
Florida SB 264 restricts property acquisitions by nationals of seven countries (China, Russia, Iran, North Korea, Cuba, Venezuela, Syria) within 10 miles of military installations. The restriction must be screened at contract stage and may require entity-structure adjustments to comply.
What are typical monthly carrying costs on a Miami condominium?
HOA $0.80-$2.50 per sq ft per month, property tax ~2% of assessed value annually, HO-6 insurance $2,000-$5,000+ annually, flood insurance $500-$3,000+. A 2,000 sq ft condo runs $1,600-$5,000 per month in HOA alone.
What are the post-Surfside inspection requirements?
Buildings 3+ stories must undergo structural inspections at year 30 (year 25 if coastal), then every 10 years. Associations must fully fund reserves; reserve waivers are no longer permitted. Older buildings carry special-assessment risk; inspection and reserve-study review is required at due-diligence.
