What shapes a project in Miami

Local conditions worth knowing before scope and budget are set.

  1. Large buildings dominate the housing mix

    In the 2024 American Community Survey, about 70 percent of Miami's roughly 230,000 housing units were in buildings with two or more units, and about 44 percent were in buildings with 50 or more units. Only about 22 percent were single-family detached homes. For condo owners, association rules shape what can change inside a unit and when work can happen.

  2. Older homes and historic designation

    About 29 percent of Miami's housing was built before 1960, and about 40 percent in 2000 or later. On historically designated properties, window and door replacement, roof replacement, fences, and exterior paint and finishes need a standard Certificate of Appropriateness. New construction, demolition or large alterations will likely need a Special Certificate of Appropriateness.
