What counts as a luxury rental in South Florida?

BreakThru sets the luxury rental threshold by city from each city's own rents, so a city's luxury rental page starts where its top tier of rentals begins. The city list on this page links every luxury rental page, and each shows its live listings from the MLS.

When should I book a seasonal rental?

For January through April, start in late summer or early autumn. Furnished oceanfront residences, club-community homes and equestrian estates near Wellington are often committed months ahead, and condominium associations can take weeks to approve a tenant, so earlier applications have the widest choice.

Are luxury rentals furnished?

Seasonal luxury rentals usually are, and annual luxury leases often are not, but it varies by home. Each city has a furnished rentals page, and every listing states whether it is furnished; confirm what is included, such as utilities, internet, linens and housekeeping, before you compare rents.

Can I rent a waterfront home with a dock for my boat?

Yes. Each coastal city's waterfront rentals page lists the live rentals on the water. Before you apply we confirm that the lease includes the dock, the length and beam it takes, the water depth and the bridges on the route to the ocean.

Do I pay a fee to work with a BreakThru rental agent?

In most South Florida rentals the landlord pays the agent commission, so our help costs a tenant nothing. If a listing works differently, we tell you before you tour it.

The Luxury Rental Market

High-end rentals in South Florida split into two markets that behave differently. Seasonal rentals, usually furnished, lease by the month or the season to winter residents, and the best of them are committed months before January. Annual luxury leases go to relocating executives and families, boat owners who need dockage, and buyers who rent while they search. We set the luxury threshold for each city from its own rents, which is why each city's luxury rental page starts at its own figure; the cities are listed below with their pages.

Seasonal and Furnished Rentals

Winter demand peaks from January through April, when furnished oceanfront residences, club-community homes and equestrian estates near Wellington lease at their highest rents. Seasonal leases are often quoted as a total for the stay rather than a monthly rent, and many condominium associations set minimum lease terms, limit the number of leases a year and require approval before move-in, so we check the rules and start the application early. Furnished listings should state what is included: utilities, internet, linens and housekeeping change the real monthly cost.

Waterfront and Oceanfront Rentals

Boat owners lease waterfront homes for the dock as much as the house. For a rental with dockage we confirm the dock length and beam, the depth at low tide, the bridges between the dock and the ocean, and whether the lease includes the slip and the utilities at the dock. For oceanfront condominiums we confirm what the association allows tenants to use, from the beach club and fitness centre to parking and storage, and what the association charges tenants to apply.

The Equestrian Season in Wellington

Wellington's winter equestrian season brings riders, owners, trainers and grooms from around the world, and farms and estates near the show grounds lease for the season, often furnished and often with barns, stalls, paddocks and arenas. The best properties are committed well before the season opens. The Wellington rental pages list what is available now, and we can approach owners of farms that are not yet listed.

Applying for a Luxury Rental

Landlords at this level typically ask for proof of income or assets well above the rent, identification, references and a background and credit check, and associations run their own approval, which can take two to four weeks in many buildings. Be ready with bank or brokerage statements, an offer letter or tax returns, and the details of any pets and vehicles. In most South Florida rentals the landlord pays the agent commission, so a BreakThru rental agent typically costs the tenant nothing.

Own a Luxury Home?

Owners of luxury homes choose between the higher rents of the winter season and the steadier income of an annual lease, and the association's rules often decide. We price your home from live rents in your city, market it to seasonal and annual renters where they search, screen tenants thoroughly and handle the association application and the lease. Each city's landlord page shows its live rents.
