The Palms Building Guide

Request the current budget, the reserve study, at least a year of board minutes, the rules and regulations, and a written statement of any special assessment that is approved or under discussion. Florida's condo-safety laws now require milestone structural inspections and structural integrity reserve studies for buildings of three or more stories, so ask where The Palms stands on both.

Pet policy is set by the The Palms association and can limit the number, size or type of animals — and a board vote can change it. Get the current rule in writing before you make an offer; we request it as a standard step on every condo purchase we handle.

Minimum lease length, how many times a year a unit may be leased, tenant approval and any waiting period for new owners are association decisions. If you plan to rent the unit out, verify the current policy first; the rental and leased tabs on this page show the lease activity recorded here.

Inside one tower, price follows the stack: exposure, view corridor, floor height and whether the line is a corner unit all matter. Compare closed prices by bedroom count in the market report, then ask us which lines in The Palms face which direction before you build a shortlist.

Parking arrangements differ by building and sometimes by unit — assigned spaces, valet, or spaces conveyed as limited common elements. Confirm how many spaces transfer with the specific residence and whether guest parking or storage costs extra.

Building first: closings in the same line and bedroom count, then nearby floors, then comparable towers in Bay Harbor Islands. The association's health — reserves, assessments and insurance — gets equal weight, because it shapes the monthly cost of ownership as much as the purchase price does.

The building's address is 1133 102nd St, Bay Harbor Islands, FL 33154 — part of Bay Harbor Islands. The map lower on this page pins its exact location.
