Bay Harbor Islands · Building guide
Blair House
A 1970 condominium of 77 residences at two addresses on West Bay Harbor Drive. In a building of this age, the inspection and reserve documents come before the apartment.
The building
A 1970 building, past the 30-year mark
Blair House is recorded by the Property Appraiser as one condominium, Blair House Condo, at 9100 and 9102 West Bay Harbor Drive in the Town of Bay Harbor Islands: 40 residences at the first address and 37 at the second, all recorded as built in 1970.
A building of this age is well past the point at which Florida requires a milestone structural inspection, and its association must have a structural integrity reserve study and fund the reserves it calls for. Those obligations do not say anything, on their own, about the building's condition: they say which documents will show it. For a purchase here, the inspection reports, the status of any repairs, the reserve study, the funding plan and any assessment are the first things to read.
Three of the 77 parcels are recorded as combinations of two original units.

Unit lines
Four lines per floor
Each floor at each address has four units, lettered A to D. Recorded areas are consistent: line A about 1,770 square feet, lines B and C about 1,150, line D about 1,820. The larger figures in lines B and D correspond to recorded combinations.
The roll does not record bedroom counts for this building, so this guide does not state them.

|---|---|---|---|
| A | — | 1,770 | 10 |

Costs and documents
What to review for a unit here
The name on the record
The county roll records the condominium as: BLAIR HOUSE CONDO. That is the name to search in county records. One association for 77 residences; the declaration sets each unit's share of the common expenses. Property Appraiser
Milestone inspection
Recorded as built in 1970, the building is past the 30-year threshold. Ask for the inspector-prepared summary of the milestone inspection, any phase two report, and the status of the repairs they call for. § 553.899
Structural integrity reserve study
Required at least every ten years for each building of three habitable storeys or more. Ask for the latest study, the reserves actually funded and how any shortfall will be met. § 718.112
What applies to every resale
The documents a buyer is entitled to, the 7-day cancellation window, the estoppel certificate and the property tax reassessment after a sale apply to every Florida condominium: they are explained once, with sources, in the costs guide and the selling guide.

Questions
Blair House, briefly
Is Blair House one condominium or two?
One. The Property Appraiser records both 9100 and 9102 West Bay Harbor Drive under Blair House Condo.
Does the age of the building mean it has problems?
No conclusion can be drawn from age alone. Age determines which inspections and studies are required; the reports themselves, and the association's funding, show the building's position.
Why no bedroom counts?
The county roll does not record them for this building. The floor plan of the unit is the reference.
Buying
Blair House, documents first.
Tell Raphael what matters to you. He replies personally with the apartments currently available that match, and the building documents to read before an offer. A request does not subscribe you to anything.
Selling
Prepare the documents, then the price.
A commercial opinion built on your unit, its line, floor and condition, the building's documents and the sales that genuinely resemble it. It is not an appraisal and carries no guaranteed price. How Raphael prepares a condo sale.
