Miami moves fast.The best units don't wait.
New towers open every season, move-in specials change from week to week, and the best apartments lease in days. You want someone who has already been inside the building and knows what the listing doesn't say.
How I can help
Most of my clients come to me for an apartment. Many come back when they're ready to buy, sell or invest.

What working together looks like
Four steps, whether you're renting, buying or selling.
Tell me what you need
Budget, move-in date, neighborhoods and must-haves like parking, pets, a washer and dryer or a bay view.
Get a shortlist
A short list of units that fit, including new buildings with current move-in specials, so you only tour what's worth seeing.
Tour and apply
We walk the units together. I help you put together a complete application so you don't lose the one you want.
Sign and move in
I review the lease, the concessions and the fees with you, then coordinate keys, parking and move-in with the building.
Plan the purchase
We set your budget, line up a mortgage pre-approval and define what you want: condo or house, neighborhood, timeline.
Search and tour
I send listings that match, flag the ones with building or association issues, and tour with you.
Offer and negotiate
Your offer is priced from recent comparable sales. I negotiate price, credits and terms on your behalf.
Close
Inspections, appraisal, condo association approval and closing. I keep every step on schedule until you get the keys.
Price it right
A pricing analysis built on recent sales in your building or street, not a guess.
Prepare and launch
Staging advice, professional photos and a listing that goes out to the MLS and to my social channels.
Show and negotiate
I handle showings and feedback, and negotiate every offer to get you the best price and terms.
Close
From contract to closing, I coordinate with the buyer's agent, the title company and the association so nothing stalls.

- Free months on a 12 or 13-month lease
- Reduced security deposits and waived application or amenity fees
- Brand-new units, finishes and amenities nobody has lived with yet

Common questions
Don't see yours? Send it through the form below.
Do I pay a fee to rent with Alessandro?
In many cases, no. Especially in new buildings, the landlord or building often pays the agent's commission. If a fee applies to a specific unit, you'll know before we tour it.
What do I need to apply for an apartment in Miami?
Most buildings ask for a government ID, proof of income, a credit and background check, and an application fee. Many look for a monthly income of about three times the rent. I'll tell you each building's requirements before you apply.
How far ahead should I start looking?
About 30 to 60 days before your move-in date. Good units in Brickell, Edgewater and Miami Beach tend to lease quickly, so starting earlier than that usually means waiting for the right unit to come up.
What is a lease-up building?
A newly built rental tower that is filling its units for the first time. To lease up quickly, these buildings often offer concessions such as free months, reduced deposits or waived fees.
Can you help me buy or sell after I rent with you?
Yes. Many clients rent first to get to know Miami, then buy once they know which neighborhood fits. I also help owners price, list and sell their condos and homes.
Do you help investors?
Yes. I can pull rent and sale comparables for a building, estimate what a unit could earn and help you find tenants once you close.
