Can I tour the actual residence before buying?
At completed buildings, often yes — that is the advantage. Confirm which specific residences are available and tour those, not just a model or a comparable line.
WPB New Construction
The completed new condos in West Palm Beach — Alba, La Clara, Forté on Flagler — and how to verify specific residence availability.
Three completed buildings provide a starting point, with each residence’s occupancy to confirm: Alba Palm Beach (55 residences, completed; confirm project sponsor/resale options and residence-specific occupancy, from just under $3M guidance), La Clara (opened to residents in 2023), and Forté on Flagler (recently completed). Confirm current project sponsor and resale options across Alba, La Clara and Forté — confirm the specific residence, fees, reserves, and condition before comparing.
A completed building still needs a residence-specific occupancy check, along with specific residence availability, resale versus project sponsor inventory, association reserves and fees, building condition, and what the HOA documents actually say. Use the completed set as both a purchase lane and a reality check for finishes and fees against pre-construction promises elsewhere.
