The Lauderdale-by-the-Sea Hotel Market

Properties here are bought by owner-operators and small investors more than by hotel groups, and the town's height limits keep the redevelopment pressure lower than in Fort Lauderdale to the south. A buyer underwrites the rate a well-run inn can hold through the season, the condition of a 1950s or 1960s building and what insurance costs to carry it a block from the ocean.

What to Check Before You Buy in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea

Beyond the operating figures every hotel purchase is underwritten on, these are the questions this market asks.

  • Owner-operator history and what the current owner does themselves
  • Building condition and the capital spent in the last ten years
  • Insurance and flood position
  • Town short-term rental rules and the licence held
  • Parking and lot coverage
