What a Miami flip actually involves

The stock is concrete-block single-family across Miami-Dade and Broward, a large condo inventory, and a basis among the highest in the Southeast. Block-home flips in Allapattah, Little Haiti, West Flagler and Cutler Bay. Roof age, impact openings and insurability at resale drive both scope and exit.

Florida is judicial and slow to foreclose. South Florida windstorm and flood insurance is the most expensive in the country and is the decisive DSCR line — it can exceed the tax line. Post-Surfside condo reserve and inspection requirements have made condo underwriting materially harder and narrowed the lender field. A large share of buyers are international and cash, which shapes comparables. Foreign national programs are a common fit.

Where Miami flips go wrong

Insurability at resale is the exit risk in Miami. If the roof, openings or elevation make the property hard to insure, the ARV you underwrote may not be the price you clear.

Where renovation exceeds purchase, the loan sizes on total project cost and ARV. Many national lenders cap rehab near half of purchase and decline on that alone — it is the single most common Miami deal we finance.

Scenarios we finance in Miami

Purchase plus rehab in one loan
Sized on total project cost and ARV, whichever binds — in Little Havana and Allapattah the ARV cap usually governs; on concrete-block single-family across Miami-Dade and Broward the cost side does. Rehab sits in a holdback and releases in draws after inspection.
Rehab budget larger than purchase price
Routine in Miami. Sized on cost and ARV. The programs that cap rehab at half of purchase are simply not the ones we use for it.
First flip in Miami
Several sources write first-timers at lower leverage with a licensed GC attached; several require completed projects. A first deal in Liberty City or Hialeah with a documented scope and a local GC is the profile that places most easily.
Storm-damaged or hard-to-insure property
Roof, openings and elevation drive both the scope and the exit. Confirm insurability at the projected ARV before you close on the purchase.
Hold instead of sell
Fix-to-rent lets you decide at completion. The DSCR takeout is a second underwrite on rent and appraised value — and in Miami the tenant base around international trade and finance is what makes that exit credible.

Who fits, what disqualifies, what to bring

Who fits
Investors buying a non-owner-occupied property anywhere in the Miami–Fort Lauderdale–West Palm Beach metro — Miami, Hialeah, Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood, Miami Gardens, Homestead, Pompano Beach and West Palm Beach — to renovate and resell or refinance, with the liquidity to carry work between draws.
What commonly disqualifies in Miami
No line-item scope. No licensed GC on a first project. Liquidity that covers the down payment but not points, third-party costs and carry. An ARV that ignores insurability at resale.
What you will need
Contract, line-item budget by trade, GC bid and license, ARV comparables, proof of liquidity, entity documents.
What happens next
One application. We match the file to programs whose leverage, rehab cap and experience rule fit, and return terms with the draw schedule spelled out.

Fix & Flip Loans in Miami, FL — Key Facts for Investors

Why is Miami a strong market for Fix & Flip investors?

Miami is an international market with constant inflow from Latin America, Europe, and domestic high-net-worth buyers. Tax-free Florida, warm weather, and post-pandemic remote work brought permanent migration. STR (short-term rental) is particularly strong — properties in Brickell, Wynwood, and Miami Beach generate significantly higher yields than traditional long-term rentals.

What should Miami investors know before applying?

Miami comps and ARV validation

Accurate ARV is critical. Miami submarkets like Wynwood have strong comp data. Lenders want 3-5 recent comps within a quarter mile.

Rehab budget and scope

Miami rehab costs: $15-40/sq ft cosmetic, $40-75/sq ft moderate, $75-150/sq ft gut. Permits matter in Miami — include permit timelines.

Exit strategy requirements

Lenders require a clear exit — sale or refi to DSCR. Market time in Miami averages 30-60 days. Build a 6-month exit buffer.

Experience requirements

First-time flippers can qualify. New flippers start at 80-85% LTC; experienced investors (2+ completed flips) reach 90%+.
