CMC Group

What CMC Group does

CMC Group is a Miami-based, privately held real estate development company founded in 1986 by Ugo Colombo. The company focuses on luxury residential development in South Florida's most desirable waterfront submarkets, currently operating two primary projects: Vita at Grove Isle (65 waterfront condominium residences, over 70% pre-sold, expected completion late 2025) and Four Seasons Private Residences Coconut Grove (70 residences in a 20-story tower, groundbreaking October 2025, expected completion mid-2028). The Four Seasons project is co-developed with Fort Partners and represents Florida's first standalone Four Seasons-branded residential property, designed by Luis Revuelta with interiors by Michele Bönan.

CMC Group's business model centers on developing and selling luxury branded residences to high-net-worth individuals, including wealthy New Yorkers relocating to Miami, seeking trophy waterfront property combined with hotel-brand services and prestige. Pricing is not publicly disclosed but is quote-based, with residences ranging from 2,025 to 3,975 square feet and penthouses up to 9,690 square feet. Branded residences in the segment command 30-50% premiums over market comparables according to industry data, and CMC Group achieves 70%+ pre-sales prior to construction completion. The company sells directly through its own sales arm (CMC Real Estate) and, for the Four Seasons project, jointly with Fort Realty.

CMC Group funds its developments through construction loans rather than equity investment rounds, having secured $239 million from Bank OZK in January 2024 for Vita at Grove Isle and $323.8 million from Bank OZK in 2025 for Four Seasons Private Residences Coconut Grove — cumulative lender commitment exceeding $560 million across two deals. The company is privately held with no disclosed parent company or institutional investor, operates with 51-100 employees, and maintains its headquarters in Miami, Florida.
