North Development has officially paid off its $70 million loan for Domus Brickell Park, marking a major financial milestone for the recently opened Brickell development and reinforcing the company’s strong execution across construction, sales, closings and operations.
North Development has officially paid off its $70 million loan for Domus Brickell Park, marking a major financial milestone for the recently opened Brickell development and reinforcing the company’s strong execution across construction, sales, closings and operations. The payoff, completed in April 2026, follows the project’s on-time, on-budget completion and strong momentum since closings began. Within the first 60 days alone, Domus Brickell Park recorded 120 closings, underscoring continued buyer demand for North Development’s flexible ownership model, which combines fully furnished residences, hospitality-driven services and short-term rental flexibility.
“This accomplishment speaks to the strength of our team and the discipline behind the entire development process,” said Ricardo Dunin, Founding Partner of North Development. “Paying off the loan so quickly after opening is not just a financial achievement, it reflects the level of coordination, planning and execution that went into every phase of the project, and the strong market response we are now seeing from owners and guests.”
The loan payoff coincides with continued operational momentum at Domus Brickell Park following its recent opening. Since welcoming owners and guests, the property has already received many five-star reviews, reinforcing the strength of the guest experience and the demand for a fully managed residential model that offers both personal use and rent-generating potential. Forman Capital, the project’s main lender, recognized North Development’s execution throughout the development process, citing the team’s professionalism, preparedness, proactive communication and ability to navigate both senior and junior debt structures through full repayment.
“North Development managed the process with clarity and discipline from start to finish,” said Hellois Scheeres, Chief Risk Officer at Forman Capital. “Their ability to meet construction milestones, communicate proactively and ultimately deliver full repayment speaks to the strength of the organization and the caliber of its execution.”
Located in the heart of Brickell, Domus Brickell Park is a fully operational hotel and condominium offering furnished residences that owners can enjoy personally or place into the property’s short-term rental program. Through the Domus App, owners can manage their residence, access services and transition their unit into the hotel inventory when they are away, creating a flexible lifestyle experience for owners while supporting a consistent guest experience. Daily operations are managed by North Management, North Development’s in-house hospitality and property management platform, overseeing everything from service and maintenance to guest relations across the property. The building also features a curated amenity collection, including a rooftop pool deck, fitness center, steam room, garden lounge, co-working spaces and a 4,200-square-foot lobby anchored by Ludlow Coffee Supply, and the Ludlow bar further establishing Domus Brickell Park as a hospitality-driven destination in one of Miami’s most dynamic urban neighborhoods.
The success of Domus Brickell Park comes as North Development continues to advance its second Brickell project, Domus Brickell Center. The project is already more than 50% sold and ahead of its construction schedule, reflecting continued confidence in the Domus model and sustained demand for flexible, fully furnished residences in Miami’s urban core.
A limited selection of units remain, with prices beginning at $600K with Cervera Real Estate exclusively leading sales.

We are looking forward to delivering this transformative development to the neighborhood.”
West Eleventh Residences marks the fifth PMG property to launch in Downtown in the past 3 years, with a nearly $3 billion total sellout value of all developments.

The developer is notable for meticulously designed condominium developments such as 111 West 57th Street, Walker Tower, Stella Tower, 111 Leroy in New York City, Echo Aventura, Muse Residences Sunny Isles, Echo Brickell and Mei in South Florida, as well as Waldorf Astoria Hotel & Residences Miami, The Elser Hotel & Residences in Miami, and two other successful pre-construction towers in Miami’s District 11.

The milestone signifies the launch of construction for the second location for URBIN, a mixed-use brand that unites design-forward residences for short- or long-term rental with flex workspaces, wellness amenities, social activations, and lifestyle-oriented retail, all in one address. The URBIN Coconut Grove groundbreaking follows Location Venture’s December 2022 groundbreaking on URBIN Miami Beach.
Location Ventures, development partners and city officials gathered on January 25 at the Coconut Grove project site, 3162 Commodore Plaza, for the official groundbreaking ceremony. Special guests included Miami Mayor Frances Suarez, former City of Miami Commissioner Ken Russell and Location Ventures CEO Rishi Kapoor, who shared remarks about the future development and coveted Coconut Grove locale – Miami’s oldest neighborhood.
The residential component of the property is 90% sold, with exclusive sales representation by ONE Sotheby’s International Realty, and has attracted a diverse buyer demographic, from Latin America and Europe. Plans are underway to further scale the URBIN brand in key cities throughout the U.S. Construction commencement in Coconut Grove comes on the heels of the Miami Beach location’s groundbreaking in the fourth quarter of 2022, following its sell-out.
“Demand for URBIN Coconut Grove has been steadfast due to its unique ownership opportunities and location in a thriving neighborhood. We are excited to begin the construction and bring this vision to life,” said Kapoor. “Living, working and wellness are the pillars of this coveted address, all integrated into a singular location.”
URBIN Coconut Grove is comprised of 54 residences ranging from studios at 331 square feet to six bedrooms at 2,352 square feet. Thoughtfully planned for convenient, easy living, residences combine modern luxury with efficient layouts and are delivered designer-finished and furnished for turnkey ownership. Arquitectonica and Paredes Architects are behind the architectural design, while residences will feature interiors by am studio, a boutique design collaborative committed to creating cohesive, resourceful, and oneiric spaces.
A variety of resort-inspired services, such as valet parking, concierge, housekeeping, and room service, will complement onsite amenities to create an environment to “live-work-well.” Residents and members of the adjacent URBIN Work will be complemented by a host of food and beverage options, as well as a wellness center with programming for mindfulness, movement, nourishment, and healing. URBIN Work, pre-leasing with Colliers, offers modern office space for businesses of the future looking to make Miami’s most dynamic neighborhood home. Both traditional office and flex workspaces provide modern amenities.
The property’s dedicated coworking component will bring an elevated level of service to the work experience. In addition to the physical space, coworking members will have access to necessary business support tools, including consulting, administrative and networking services.
The URBIN development is the latest addition to the vibrant Coconut Grove community, which has undergone a significant transformation in recent years. Embodying the laid-back waterfront lifestyle of the locale, it is an area brimming with world-class restaurants, neighborhood shops, lush parks and a hub of growing business enterprises. URBIN Coconut Grove is situated in the center of it all, two blocks from CocoWalk, and within walking distance to Dinner Key Marina, the bay, and Regatta and Peacock Park.
