Why Buy New Construction in Fort Lauderdale?
Fort Lauderdale is experiencing one of the most significant luxury development cycles in its history. Branded residences, Intracoastal towers, and oceanfront condos are reshaping the skyline — and early buyers are locking in prices that will look exceptional at delivery.
Matilde Leyva represents buyers exclusively in new construction transactions — meaning she negotiates on your behalf, reviews developer contracts, and ensures your deposit is protected. Developer sales offices represent the developer, not you.
Pre-Construction Pricing
Lock in today's price on a property that won't deliver for 2–4 years — historically one of the strongest appreciation strategies in South Florida real estate.
Customization Options
Choose your finishes, flooring, and upgrades before construction begins. New construction delivers exactly what you want without the compromise of a resale.
Builder Warranties
New construction comes with structural warranties and appliance guarantees — eliminating the deferred maintenance risk common in resale properties.
Modern Amenities
Resort-style pools, private beach clubs, concierge services, fitness centers, and smart-home technology built to today's luxury standards.

5 Things Every New Construction Buyer Must Know
Developer contracts are written to protect the developer. Here's what to watch for.
1
Always use independent buyer representation — developer sales agents work for the developer, not you.
2
Review the deposit structure carefully — pre-construction typically requires 20–30% in staged deposits before closing.
3
Understand the developer's track record, financial backing, and construction timeline before committing.
4
Factor in HOA fees, special assessments, and closing costs — new construction closings can include developer fees not present in resale.
5
Get a real estate attorney to review the Purchase and Sale Agreement before signing — developer contracts heavily favor the developer.
New Construction FAQs
How does buying pre-construction in Fort Lauderdale work?
You sign a Purchase and Sale Agreement and pay staged deposits (typically 10–30% of the purchase price) over the construction period. At closing — usually 2–4 years later — you pay the remaining balance. The advantage is locking in today's price on a property that may be worth significantly more at delivery.
Can I use a buyer's agent for new construction?
Yes, and you should. In Florida, the developer pays the buyer's agent commission — so representation costs you nothing. A buyer's agent reviews the contract, negotiates upgrades and incentives, and protects your interests throughout the process. Developer sales offices represent the developer exclusively.
What happens if the developer delays or cancels the project?
Florida law provides some protections for pre-construction buyers, including escrow requirements for deposits. However, contract terms vary significantly. We always review cancellation clauses, escrow arrangements, and developer financial backing before recommending a project.
Is pre-construction a good investment in Fort Lauderdale?
Historically, yes — buyers who purchased pre-construction in Fort Lauderdale's last development cycle saw 20–40% appreciation by delivery. However, results depend on the project, location, and market conditions. We provide a detailed investment analysis for every project we recommend.
