918 Ocean Drive (Miami Beach): what the official records say

This page covers only 918 Ocean Drive Condo, the condominium at 918 Ocean Dr in Miami Beach: a 1925 building with 22 units. Its record carries one fact that governs all the others: between November 2024 and November 2026 there is no recorded sale of the subdivision, of any qualification. This page documents that as it stands, with the last qualified sale on record and its date.

In the records read, the building appears as its own condominium with a parent folio. The identity data comes from the Miami-Dade Property Appraiser (the county office that keeps the record of every property), read on November 5, 2026.

These figures come only from public records, not from listings or the MLS. The listing is built from the sales the Miami-Dade Property Appraiser records for the subdivision "918 OCEAN DRIVE CONDO", between November 5, 2024 and November 5, 2026 (24 months), cross-checked against each unit's sales history and against the unfiltered qualification search. The result is zero: in the window there is no recorded sale of the subdivision, qualified or of any other kind. With no sales there is no median to publish: the rule of this page requires at least 5 qualified sales for a median.

The only two recorded sales anywhere near the window fall outside it by qualification and by date: on January 18, 2024, unit 402, $526,000, and on September 30, 2024, unit 204, $169,000; both are marked as atypical in the record ("atypical exposure to market; atypical motivation"), not as qualified market sales. Before them, unit 201's history shows its qualified sale of September 12, 2022 for $360,000, the most recent in the building.

"Pending official confirmation" means that no public record showing it was read. It does not mean the fact exists or that it does not.

What the public records do not show is held by the building's association. Ask for it in writing and keep the answers:

• The county recertification and the state structural inspection (milestone), first. This is a 1925 oceanfront building: ask for the notice, the filed report and the closing letter for both inspections. If either is under way or has ordered repairs, ask for the scope and the estimated cost in writing.
• The complete reserve study (SIRS). This project does not appear in the DBPR public database. Ask the association for the study, the current reserve level and the proof of filing; if it has not been filed, have that in writing.
• Special assessments approved or under discussion: the minutes of the last two years and the unit's account statement letter (the "estoppel": what the unit owes the association and the charges in force). The guide to the condo special assessment explains it.
• How the cost of works on a historic building is split: what heritage protections apply to the facade and the common elements, and what the last major works cost.
• If you plan to use an FHA loan: the project does not appear on the HUD list. Ask your lender about single-unit approval and the loan's other routes. The guide to the condo with an FHA loan explains how the list is read.

What is NOT public (but you must verify):

• The exact HOA fee of the unit: it varies by unit (split by square feet and interest percentage); no listing or public record sets it for your unit.
• The current amount of a special assessment: the amount and payment terms exist only in the association's documents; a figure seen in the press or in listings is not the document.
• The current rental, Airbnb and pet rules: they live in the association's documents, not in the public record; ask for them in writing.
• The association's budget and reserve level: internal association documents, for owners only.
• The building's status on lenders' confidential lists: none of those lists is public; your lender confirms it.
