The Villa Miami Private Advisor
Kyle Gilligan of Douglas Elliman serves as The Villa Miami Private Advisor — a single dedicated point of contact for buyers exploring Villa Miami Residences and the broader Miami branded residence market. The advisor relationship is structured around three commitments: full pricing transparency, independent comparable analysis, and post-closing continuity.
What Working with the Advisor Looks Like
- Private presentation: Scheduled at the Villa Miami Sales Gallery in Edgewater or virtually for international buyers. 45–60 minutes plus follow-on questions.
- Residence selection: Walk through the full floor plan library with view exposures, level recommendations and configurability options.
- Pricing transparency: Full pricing across the building, not just one residence. Comparable inventory at peer projects for context.
- Contract review coordination: Introduction to FIRPTA-experienced real estate attorneys; coordination of contract review and signing.
- Deposit & escrow: Coordination with the developer's escrow agent under Florida Statute Ch. 718. See the financing & deposits guide.
- Financing introductions: Conventional jumbo, private bank portfolio lending, foreign-national programs, SBLOC structuring.
- Closing & handover: Walk-through, punch-list management, key handover, residence orientation.
- Post-closing service: Ongoing relationship for resale, leasing, or additional Miami acquisitions.
Buildings Covered
Beyond Villa Miami, the advisor regularly transacts across Miami's full branded residential market — Cipriani Residences, Aston Martin Residences, Waldorf Astoria, St. Regis Sunny Isles, Bentley Residences, Edition Residences Edgewater, Perigon, Five Park, Mr. C Residences, and Vita at Grove Isle. This breadth of coverage allows the advisor to recommend Villa Miami only where it is the genuine best fit for the buyer's profile.
International Buyer Specialization
The advisor coordinates regularly with buyers in Latin America, Europe, the Middle East and Asia — including virtual private presentations, multi-day Miami itineraries with concierge support, FIRPTA and FinCEN compliance, foreign-national mortgage introductions, and source-of-funds documentation coordination. See the international buyer guide.
Fee Structure
Buyer-side advisor representation in Miami pre-construction is paid by the developer at closing — the buyer pays nothing for advisor services. This is the standard structure across the Miami market; verify it applies to your specific transaction during the initial consultation.

What does a luxury real estate advisor do?

Does the advisor work with international buyers?
Yes. The advisor specializes in international buyer coordination — Latin America, Europe, Middle East, Asia — including virtual private presentations, FIRPTA/FinCEN compliance, foreign-national financing introductions and multi-day Miami itineraries.
Villa Miami is, quite simply, the most compelling residence on Biscayne Bay.
A vanishingly rare bayfront parcel. The only fully operator-run Major Food Group residential program in the country. A deliberately limited door count. Pre-construction pricing on the last great Edgewater address. Inventory is shrinking week by week — and the buyers moving now are securing the strongest residences at the strongest terms.
