Ombelle Fort Lauderdale Secures $50 Million Financing as Development Advances Through Pre-Construction

Ombelle Fort Lauderdale, a luxury residential development taking shape in the heart of Flagler Village, has secured $50 million in initial financing from Dwight Mortgage Trust, representing a portion of the anticipated $350 million construction financing. Developed by Dependable Equities, the project is part of a 1.4 million-square-foot mixed-use development shaping one of Fort Lauderdale’s fastest-growing neighborhoods.

The transaction was arranged by The SHB Group, led by Steven Hersko, managing director.

The financing was secured amid strong early sales activity and continued progress across pre-construction efforts, positioning the development for the next phase of execution.

The milestone comes as the development continues to advance through pre-construction, with site preparation activities underway, including initial groundwork and geotechnical investigations and site preparation work. The approach reflects a broader emphasis on thoughtful, intentional development from the earliest stages of the project.

Four years later, the Ombelle has seemed to clear a hurdle! It's a nice height and it's close to downtown, so what's the holdup? Get this thing built!!!

As an Architectural Project Manager, the hold ups are usually due to financing and permitting (Site Plan Approvals, Environmental Permits, and Building Permits.

This is common but also the buildings switched from apartments to 775 condominium units. A lot for one project, takes time to hit that 50% mark.
