Compass Commercial presents a rare, high-value opportunity to develop a 163-room, 17-story luxury hotel in the heart of Downtown Miami. Unlike raw land purchases, this fully entitled site is shovel-ready, with approved plans and demolition permits, allowing for a fast-tracked path to revenue generation. This project comes with significant built-in financial advantages, including an existing 7-story steel-framed structure, which eliminates $5M–$10M in demolition and foundation costs and reduces the construction timeline by 6–12 months. Additionally, the property qualifies for a 10-year Ad Valorem Tax Exemption, reducing property tax liabilities, and the Federal Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credit, providing a 20% tax credit on qualified redevelopment expenses—valued at approximately $8.74M. The hotel can be delivered with a long-term lease from a Flag Hotel Operator, backed by a corporate guarantee, offering a stable, income-producing asset with minimal management responsibility. Alternatively, investors can self-operate and capture Miami’s record-setting ADRs of $311+ per night and 88% occupancy rates, maximizing revenue potential. Pro-forma financials project a 10.3% cap rate if self-operated, with a leveraged IRR of 18.2%–19.8% and an equity multiple of 2.85x–3.10x over 10 years. This investment is surrounded by major economic drivers, including Miami Worldcenter, Brightline, and a growing corporate presence, making it a prime location for a flagship hospitality development. With a high barrier to entry for new hotel developments, massive cost savings, and historic tax credits, this opportunity offers exceptional upside with minimal entitlement risk.
