Frequently Asked Questions

1. What are the rules for renting a second home in South Florida?

Short-term rental rules can vary by city, neighborhood, or condo association. Some areas allow seasonal rentals, while others have minimum stay requirements or restrictions. Our team reviews all local and HOA rules with you before purchase so you know exactly what’s allowed and can plan for management, cleaning, and guest coordination.

2. Should I buy a condo or a single-family home as a second home?

Condos are often easier to maintain and offer shared amenities, making them a good fit for part-time owners. Single-family homes provide more privacy and flexibility, but they usually require more upkeep, especially if you won’t be there year-round. We help you compare both options based on your lifestyle, budget, and long-term goals.

3. How do I plan for the costs of owning a second home?

Owning a second home involves more than just the purchase price. You’ll need to account for property taxes, insurance, utilities, maintenance, and possible HOA fees. We walk you through all of these costs early in the process so you can budget properly and avoid surprises later.

4. Can I rent my second home to cover expenses?

Yes, many owners rent their property part-time to offset costs, but there are several things to consider. You’ll need to comply with local regulations, HOA rules, and potentially obtain licenses for short-term rentals. Our team can help you understand these requirements and guide you on rental management, cleaning, and guest services.

5. How do I choose the best location for my second home in South Florida?

The right location depends on how you plan to use the property. Consider proximity to beaches, shopping, airports, and family or friends who may visit. We help you weigh these factors, along with rental potential and property values, so your choice works for both lifestyle and investment goals.
