In season 1 I thought they used the actual apartment in Miami but then moved to a soundstage because filming in Miami is ridiculously expensive?

I'm not sure...
The interior (and exterior veranda of the apartment) was built since the first day in a soundstage.
Obviously they filmed some outdoor scenes in the real condo, but very few times...
Also, as you can read in some websites, the real apartment is not empty and somebody lives there.
So I think that they never used the real place as a set, aconditioning the interior and then duplicating the interior in the soundstage.
Maybe they filmed the main titles in the real condo, but I'm not shure...

It's very easy to recognize if one veranda scene was filmed in the real apartment or in the soundstage set.
The real apartmernt has 4 window sections to the right of the entry door:
The designers, to make the apartment bigger add one more and the soundstage version has 5 window sections:

Have you noticed this designer's trick ???
