Investing in Aventura

What we see in Aventura deals

Aventura, incorporated in 1995, is a high-rise city: condo towers along the Intracoastal, Country Club Drive and Biscayne Boulevard, anchored by Aventura Mall. Investors here mainly buy condo units, either to renovate dated interiors and resell or to hold as long-term rentals.

That makes the building the most important part of almost every Aventura loan. Many towers date from the 1970s and 1980s and are working through Florida's post-Surfside inspection and reserve requirements, which can mean special assessments. Associations also commonly set rules on leasing, tenant approval and renovation work, from approved contractors to work hours. We review the building's documents before you commit.

Common questions
Do you lend on primary residences in Aventura?

Our hard money, bridge, construction, DSCR and working-capital programs are business-purpose only — for investment properties and business needs, not a home you live in. If you're buying a home to live in, FFC also arranges FHA and conventional home loans for eligible owner-occupied buyers, reviewed by a licensed loan originator.

What credit score do I need?

Property programs typically start at a 650–680 minimum FICO depending on the program. Revenue-based working capital qualifies on your business's sales history instead of your score.

How fast can a loan in Aventura close?

Property loans are built to close in days-to-weeks, not months — timelines depend on title, insurance, and appraisal. Working capital can fund in as little as 1–2 business days.

Is FFC the lender?

Fernandez Financial Capital is a broker (NMLS #2896990) that arranges financing through vetted lender partners — which is why we can match your deal to the program that actually fits it.

Is it hard to finance an Aventura condo?

It depends on the building more than on you. Lenders review the association's reserves, insurance, special assessments, how many units are rented and any litigation. Send us the building name first and we'll tell you which programs can work.

Can I renovate and resell an Aventura condo unit?

Yes, with a fix & flip loan, as long as the building qualifies and the association approves the work. Many towers set strict rules on contractors and work hours, so plan the timeline around them.
