How much rent can I get for my Miami home?

Houses and townhomes in Miami are asking a median $3,200 a month and condos and apartments $3,000, from live BeachesMLS rentals updated daily. The right rent for your home depends on its size, condition, furnishing and exact location; request a free rental analysis and we will price it from the closest comparable leases.

Do you already have a tenant looking for a property like mine in Miami?

We may. Renters who work with BreakThru Realty tell us the area, the budget, the home type, the furnishing and the move date they need, and we keep those requests on file. When you ask for a rental analysis, an agent checks your property against them before the call and tells you what the records show. A potential match is an introduction, not a signed lease, and nothing about your property reaches a renter until you agree.

I am relocating or bought another home. Should I rent out my Miami home or sell it?

Compare the two on the numbers. Renting keeps the home and its appreciation but brings the costs of a landlord: the mortgage, taxes, insurance, association dues, repairs and the months between tenants. Selling releases the equity now, and the capital gains exclusion on a primary residence has a time limit once you move out. We price both, the rent from closed leases and the sale from closed sales, and your CPA confirms the tax side. Our guide "Should I Rent or Sell My South Florida Home?" walks through the comparison.

I inherited a home in Miami. Can I rent it out?

Usually, once the person signing the lease has the legal authority to do it. While an estate is open that is normally the personal representative, so confirm with the estate's attorney before a lease is signed. We price the rent and the sale so the heirs can decide on figures, and we can lease the home while that decision is made.

My Miami home is vacant. What should I do first?

Price it from closed leases, not from the highest asking rent nearby. Each empty month still costs the mortgage, taxes, insurance and association dues, and a home priced above the leases that closed around it usually sits. Check the insurance too: many policies treat a vacant or tenant occupied home differently, so tell your agent before the tenant moves in.

My home is listed with another agent and has not leased. Can you help?

Read the end date and the cancellation terms in your current listing agreement first; we do not interfere with an active agreement. When it ends, or your agent releases it, we review the rent, the photos, the listing and the applications so far, and tell you plainly what kept it from leasing before it is relisted.

Do you offer property management in Miami?

Yes. You can lease your Miami home with us and manage it yourself, or add full management and hand us the day to day as well. Ask for a quote for either service.

How do you screen tenants?

Credit history, verified income, criminal background, eviction history, prior landlord references and identity verification. We also manage the condo or HOA application when your community requires one.

What Will Your Miami Property Rent For?

Your rent is set by the leases that closed nearest your home, not by a citywide average. Send us the address and the date it is available, and a licensed BreakThru Realty agent prices it from those leases, lists it, screens every applicant and prepares a lease that follows Florida law. Renters who work with us tell us the area, budget, home type and move date they need, and the agent checks whether one of them may fit your property before it is listed.

What Your Miami Home Could Rent For

Right now, houses and townhomes in Miami are asking a median $3,200 a month and condos and apartments $3,000, across 6,220 active rentals. Leases signed in the last 90 days closed at a median $3,063 and $2,750. Asking rents and closed leases are different numbers: a tenant signs at the second. Your rent depends on size, condition, furnishing and location, so we price your home from the comparable leases closest to it.

Renting Out a Home in Miami

Miami landlords choose between annual tenants and furnished or short stays, and much of that choice is made for them: condominium associations set minimum lease terms, waiting periods and their own tenant approval, and short stays need zoning that allows them, a state licence and tourist tax registration. Older duplexes and fourplexes raise different questions: whether every unit is legal, the age of the roof and the electrical, and what the insurance costs. We check those first, then price your home from live Miami rents.

How We Find a Qualified Tenant

The home is listed in the MLS as a lease, which carries it to the agents who represent renters and the sites that show MLS rentals, and it gets its own page on BreakThru Realty's site. Before that, the agent checks it against the renters already working with us. Every applicant is screened before you decide.

What Happens After You Send Your Property

An agent calls you to confirm the details, then sends the rent the closed leases support and how the home would be listed.

The rent is priced from the closest comparable leases, annual, furnished or seasonal where your community allows it
The leasing fee and the agent's duties are agreed in writing before anything is listed
The home is photographed and listed
You choose the tenant from screened applicants
The lease is signed and the deposit is handled the way Florida law requires

Florida Rules Every Landlord Should Know

Florida law requires a landlord to tell the tenant in writing, within 30 days of receiving a security deposit, how and where it is held. After the tenant moves out, the landlord has 15 days to return the deposit if there is no claim against it, or 30 days to send written notice of a claim. Condo and HOA communities often add leasing rules of their own, such as minimum lease terms and a tenant application. This is a summary, not legal advice.

What Leases Fastest in Miami

The quickest lease in Miami is an unfurnished home priced against closed leases on its own street. Duplex and fourplex units in Little Havana, Allapattah and Flagami move within days when they are clean and close to the Health District, the airport or a Metrorail station, because a private owner can approve a tenant the same week. Family houses and townhomes in Kendall, The Hammocks and Kendale Lakes move in late spring and summer, when the school calendar drives the market. What waits is a downtown unit priced off the asking rents of the newest tower rather than what units in the building actually closed at, and any Miami home whose association approval takes a month the applicant did not expect.

Annual or Seasonal for a Miami Owner

Annual leasing is the default for a Miami owner, and the reason is regulatory as much as commercial. Short stays require zoning that permits them, a state license and tourist tax registration, and on top of that the association has to allow it, which is why some towers around Miami Worldcenter run hotel programs while others set a floor of a year. Where a furnished seasonal tenant is possible, that demand runs from January through April and comes from winter residents, visiting medical staff and people between homes, and it leaves the unit idle in summer unless you backfill it. Furniture, linens, cleaning and a written inventory are real costs, so run the numbers against a twelve month tenant in Miami before committing.

Rules a Miami Landlord Checks First

Check the rules that outrank your lease before you advertise a Miami rental. In a condominium, the association sets the minimum term, may cap how many times a unit can be leased in a year, screens the tenant for a fee and can take weeks to decide; some buildings also bar leasing during an owner's first year. In The Hammocks a section association and the community association may each have a say. Houses in Westchester, Calusa and the original Kendale Lakes sections usually have no association at all, so you decide alone. Outside the building, the municipality matters: city and county codes differ on short stays and on how many unrelated occupants a home may hold, so confirm which one governs the address.
