Fortune International Group Construction Financing Boosts St. Regis Sunny Isles Project to $418M
December 4, 2025
Fortune International Group and Château Group have expanded construction financing for their St. Regis–branded, oceanfront condominium project in Sunny Isles Beach, increasing the package to $418.3 million. According to property records, Bank OZK boosted its existing $159 million loan by an additional $259.3 million, accelerating progress on the two-tower, 62-story development now under construction.
How Fortune International Group Reshaped the Project Scope
City officials approved a revised site plan earlier this year, reducing the originally planned 490 condos to 361 luxury residences in one of the towers. Despite the shift, interest remains robust — a penthouse is already under contract for $55 million.
The project rises on a 4.7-acre oceanfront site at 18801 Collins Avenue, where Fortune International Group and Château Group previously bought out a 350-unit condo building for $113 million in 2014.

Major South Florida Loans Reflect Strong Luxury Demand
The expanded construction financing aligns with a broader trend of substantial lending for luxury coastal developments. Recently:
-
Madison Realty Capital issued a $630 million construction loan for Gil Dezer’s Bentley-branded tower four buildings south of St. Regis.
-
Naftali Group secured $465 million for a new luxury rental and condo tower at Miami Worldcenter.
These deals underscore continued lender confidence in South Florida’s high-end residential sector, particularly along oceanfront corridors.
Representatives for Fortune International Group and Bank OZK were not immediately available for comment.
