The firm

Most of what we know cannot be found in a search.

We are a small firm by choice. Clients work directly with Thania and Robert, not a rotating team of associates. Every showing, every negotiation, every closing is handled by the principals.

Who we are

Small Firm.
Deep Roots.

Miami Waterfront Properties is an owner-led advisory founded by Thania and Robert Vernon, lifelong Key Biscayne residents with decades of experience across Miami's most distinctive neighborhoods.

Robert's family has called Key Biscayne home since 1951. For three generations, Vernon's Drugstore on Crandon Boulevard was the island community's gathering place.

Why clients choose us

The Difference.

These are the four things that keep clients with us across decades, not transactions.

01

Owner-led, every time

You work with Thania and Robert, not a team, not an associate. Every showing, every negotiation, every closing is handled by the principals.

02

Generational roots

Three generations of Vernon family history on Key Biscayne. The island's community trusts the name, and that trust creates access that cannot be manufactured.

03

Off-market intelligence

Robert's role managing master associations for the Ritz-Carlton and Grand Bay Residences gives the firm early knowledge of properties before they reach the market.

04

Global reach, boutique service

An international distribution network reaches qualified buyers worldwide. The relationship with clients stays personal and direct.

In their words

Our clients say it better than we can.

I have had the pleasure of working with Bob and Thania Vernon on numerous occasions. From Miami Beach to Key Biscayne I have worked with them for ten years or more. Together we have bought and sold several properties with them being my advisors as well as facilitating the transactions. They are genuinely nice and easy to work with and I have forged a very good relationship of trust.

I can't say enough great things about my experience working with Thania. She is a consummate professional who keeps on top of every detail and every deadline. I appreciate her no-nonsense, get-it-done style and I implicitly trust her advice. She made the process seamless and painless — the easiest real estate experiences I've ever had. You can't find a better, more experienced, and more professional agent than Thania.
Raul Barreneche · New York
Having bought and sold multiple properties with Thania, I've seen firsthand the value of her experience and expertise. As a lifelong Key Biscayne resident myself, I know there is simply no substitute for true local knowledge. Thania understands this community, its market, and its people in a way few others can — and that perspective has been invaluable in every transaction.
