🇭🇹 Li an Kreyòl: Miami ak North Miami
Broward County is South Florida’s middle child in the best sense: more suburban than Miami-Dade, more compact than Palm Beach, and packed with a little bit of everything. East of I-95 you find Fort Lauderdale’s finger-island canals, Hollywood’s 1920s neighborhoods and a wall of beachfront condos running up through Pompano Beach. Between I-95 and the Turnpike are mid-century ranch-home neighborhoods in Plantation, Lauderhill and Lauderdale Lakes. Farther west, Pembroke Pines, Coral Springs, Sunrise, Weston and Davie hold master-planned communities, horse properties and some of the largest age-restricted condominium communities in the state.
Owners in each of those places face different challenges. Older beachside and 55-plus condos are wrestling with new structural inspection and reserve requirements. Low-lying Fort Lauderdale neighborhoods are still dealing with the aftermath of the April 2023 rainfall flood. Landlords with aging duplexes in Hollywood and Pompano Beach face rising insurance and repair costs. And many families are settling estates on homes that have been in the family since the 1970s.
Libera Capital Group is a Florida cash buyer. Our home market is Southwest Florida, directly across Alligator Alley from Broward, and we buy houses and commercial property throughout Florida. Here is our Broward County guide.
Why Broward County Owners Sell to Libera Capital Group
No pre-sale renovation
Old cast-iron drains, polybutylene plumbing, original windows, a roof your insurer will not renew — we buy Broward homes with all of it, so you skip the contractor bids and the permit wait.
More money stays with you
No listing commission, no seller-paid buyer-agent fee and no inspection credits. We pay normal closing costs, so the net is clear from day one.
Seasonal-owner friendly
Living up north for the summer? Settling a parent’s condo from another state? We can handle most of the process remotely and close on a date that suits you.
Certainty in a tricky market
No financing contingency, no condo-approval delays tied to a lender and no insurance binder to chase — once we agree on terms, we work to close.
A cash offer is not always the highest price. A renovated, well-insured home in a strong school zone may net more on the open market, and we will tell you if that is likely. But for condos facing assessments, homes with flood or code history, and rentals with tenants in place, a direct sale is worth comparing. See our cash offer vs. listing breakdown.
Broward County Cities Where We Buy Houses and Commercial Property
Fort Lauderdale
The county seat is known for its canals — hundreds of miles of navigable waterways threading through neighborhoods like Rio Vista, Las Olas Isles and Harbor Beach — and for Las Olas Boulevard, the New River and a growing downtown. Away from the water, neighborhoods such as Edgewood, Riverland, Melrose Park and the Sistrunk corridor have older block homes, duplexes and small apartment buildings. Several of these areas flooded badly in April 2023. We buy Fort Lauderdale homes, waterfront properties with failing seawalls, condos and commercial buildings across the city.
Hollywood
Hollywood was founded in the 1920s, and its historic core — Hollywood Lakes, the downtown around Young Circle and the neighborhoods near the Broadwalk — has some of Broward’s oldest homes. West of US-1 you find mid-century ranch homes and many small multifamily buildings. Beachfront and Intracoastal condos line A1A. Older Hollywood homes frequently come with outdated electrical, original plumbing and additions of uncertain permit history.
Pembroke Pines
One of Broward’s largest cities, Pembroke Pines is mostly newer suburban development west of the Turnpike, with many HOA communities built from the 1980s onward, plus one of South Florida’s best-known 55-plus condominium communities. We buy single-family homes and condos here, including units in age-restricted communities where heirs need a quick, simple sale.
Coral Springs
Coral Springs is a planned city with a reputation for strict appearance and code standards, which keeps neighborhoods tidy but can turn a neglected house into a code-enforcement problem quickly. If you have an inherited or vacant home that has fallen behind on maintenance, we can buy it as-is and handle compliance after closing.
Pompano Beach
Pompano Beach combines oceanfront and Intracoastal condos, canal-front homes east of Federal Highway, older neighborhoods in the north and west, and one of the county’s busier industrial areas around the airpark and the Copans Road and Powerline Road corridors. We buy condos, single-family homes, small apartment buildings and industrial and flex buildings throughout Pompano.
Davie
Davie keeps a semi-rural, equestrian character in parts of town, with larger lots, horse properties, barns and, in some areas, wells and septic systems — alongside college-area rentals near Nova Southeastern University and newer subdivisions. Ranch-style properties with outbuildings and unpermitted improvements are common, and we are comfortable buying them.
Plantation
Plantation’s mature, tree-lined neighborhoods were largely built from the 1950s through the 1970s, many on generous lots near canals and lakes. Homes here are solid but often original, with aging roofs, plumbing and electrical. Plantation also has office parks and retail centers along Broward Boulevard and University Drive, and we buy office buildings and retail centers there.
Sunrise
Sunrise is home to Sawgrass Mills, the county’s arena and a large corporate office area near the Sawgrass Expressway — plus extensive 55-plus condominium communities in its eastern half. Many of those older condos are low-rise garden buildings now navigating reserve requirements and rising dues. We buy condos and villas in Sunrise from owners and heirs.
Other Broward communities
We also buy in Lauderhill, Lauderdale Lakes, Tamarac, Margate, Coconut Creek, Deerfield Beach, Lighthouse Point, Oakland Park, Wilton Manors, Dania Beach, Hallandale Beach, Miramar, Weston, Cooper City, Southwest Ranches and North Lauderdale. If it is in Broward County, we want to hear about it.
Broward County Housing and Commercial Stock
- Mid-century block homes — the backbone of central Broward, often with original systems, jalousie windows and add-on Florida rooms. We buy single-family homes in any condition.
- Condominiums — beachfront towers, Intracoastal mid-rises and huge garden-style 55-plus communities. See our condos and townhomes page.
- Small multifamily — duplexes, triplexes and 1960s–70s two-story apartment buildings, especially in Hollywood, Fort Lauderdale, Pompano Beach and Lauderhill. We buy multifamily properties with tenants in place.
- Industrial and logistics — warehouses near Port Everglades, the airport, Pompano Beach and along I-95 and I-595.
- Retail, office and mixed-use — strip centers along US-441, University Drive, Oakland Park Boulevard and Federal Highway; mixed-use buildings in downtown Fort Lauderdale and Hollywood.
- Hospitality — small beach motels and older hotels in Fort Lauderdale beach, Hollywood and Pompano. See hotels and motels.
Flooding, Hurricanes and Insurance in Broward County
Broward sits low and flat, with an extensive canal system managed to move water toward the ocean. That system works hard in heavy rain, and sometimes it cannot keep up. On April 12, 2023, an extraordinary rainfall event dropped well over a foot of rain on parts of Fort Lauderdale in a matter of hours, flooding homes, cars and streets in neighborhoods like Edgewood and Riverland and shutting down the airport. Many of those homes had never flooded before and did not carry flood insurance.
Hurricanes add to the picture. Hurricane Wilma crossed South Florida in October 2005 and caused widespread wind damage across Broward, and Hurricane Irma in 2017 brought wind and water damage as well. The Florida Building Code’s High-Velocity Hurricane Zone requirements apply in Broward and Miami-Dade, which raises the standard — and the cost — for roofs, windows and doors when you repair or replace them.
Can I sell my Broward home after it flooded?
Yes. We buy homes with fresh flood damage, homes that were gutted and left, and homes that were repaired without permits. If your building is in a Special Flood Hazard Area and repair costs reach 50% or more of the structure’s market value, FEMA’s substantial-damage rule generally requires the building to be brought up to current floodplain standards, which can include elevation. For many owners, selling is simpler. Learn more on our hurricane and flood damage page.
What about waterfront homes with seawall problems?
Seawalls along Broward’s canals age, crack and lose fill behind them. Some cities have adopted minimum seawall elevation requirements, and repairs or replacement can be costly and require permits. We buy canal-front homes with failing seawalls and price the work into our offer.
My insurer dropped me. Can I still sell?
Yes. Older roofs and non-renewals are common in South Florida. A financed buyer needs insurance to close; we do not have an insurance contingency, so a lapsed or expensive policy will not stop our purchase.
Broward Condo Rules, Building Safety Inspections and Assessments
Broward County has long run a building safety inspection program, similar to Miami-Dade’s well-known “40-year recertification,” that requires many older buildings — other than single-family homes and duplexes — to undergo structural and electrical inspections by a licensed professional once they reach a certain age, with repeat inspections afterward. After the 2021 Surfside collapse, local timing was tightened, and Florida’s statewide condo reforms (commonly called SB-4D, later amended) added milestone inspections for condo and co-op buildings three stories or taller, structural integrity reserve studies and limits on waiving structural reserves.
For Broward condo owners, especially in older beachfront buildings and large 55-plus communities, the result has often been special assessments and steep increases in monthly dues. Units in associations with unresolved requirements can be difficult to finance. We buy condos with pending or levied assessments, and we buy apartment and commercial buildings with open safety inspection requirements. Requirements and deadlines have changed over time, so check with your association and a Florida attorney about current obligations. For buildings with violations, our code violations page explains how we help.
Broward County Property Appraiser, Records and Permitting
- Broward County Property Appraiser — folio numbers, ownership, values and exemptions.
- Broward County tax collection office — property tax bills, delinquent taxes and tax certificates. Behind on taxes? See back taxes and liens.
- Broward County official records and Clerk of Courts — recorded deeds, mortgages and liens; foreclosure and probate cases.
- Broward County Board of Rules and Appeals (BORA) — oversees how the Florida Building Code is applied countywide, including the building safety inspection program.
- Municipal building departments — nearly all of Broward is incorporated, so permits, code enforcement and inspections are generally handled by your city, such as Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood, Pembroke Pines or Coral Springs.
Why Broward Sellers Choose a Cash Buyer
- Estate sales. Many Broward homes and condos belonged to retirees whose heirs live out of state. Florida’s summary administration may apply to smaller estates or where the decedent died more than two years ago — ask a probate attorney. See our inherited and probate guide.
- Condo cost spiral. Assessments plus higher dues make holding a unit expensive, especially when it sits empty.
- Flood and storm damage. Rebuilding after a flood means permits, contractors and possibly elevation.
- Rental fatigue. Rising insurance, aging buildings and difficult tenants. See tired landlord and problem tenants.
- Foreclosure. Florida’s judicial process means you usually have time to sell before a foreclosure sale. See foreclosure help.
- Commercial challenges. Vacancies, deferred maintenance and safety inspection costs on older commercial buildings. See distressed commercial.

Selling a Broward Property from Out of State
A large share of Broward’s condos and homes are owned by people who do not live here full time: seasonal residents who head north in spring, adult children who inherited a parent’s unit in Tamarac or Margate, and investors who bought a rental years ago and moved away. Selling from a distance can feel daunting, but a direct sale removes most of the moving parts.
Do I need to fly down to sell?
Usually not. Florida title companies routinely handle remote closings, with documents signed before a notary where you live or through approved remote online notarization, depending on the title company’s procedures. We can coordinate access for a walk-through with a neighbor, a property manager or the association, and you do not need to clear out furniture or personal items unless you want to keep them.
What about the association, the keys and the utilities?
For condos, we request the estoppel certificate from the association, which shows dues, assessments and any amounts owed through closing. If the community requires buyer approval or an application, we handle that paperwork. Utilities and insurance stay in your name until closing, then you cancel them. Keys, gate fobs, mailbox keys and parking decals can be left with the association office or a lockbox.
What if the unit has been sitting empty?
Vacant units in South Florida can develop problems quickly: a slow leak under a sink, an air handler that fails in August and leads to mold, or a downstairs neighbor’s water damage claim. Owners often find these issues only after they arrive. We buy vacant homes and condos as-is, including those with leaks, mold or neglected maintenance, and price the cleanup into our offer. Our vacant property guide covers the risks of holding an empty property longer than you need to.
Whatever your situation, the goal is the same: one clear offer, no surprises at closing and proceeds wired to you wherever you live.
Unfinished Home in Broward County? We Buy Half-Built Houses
Nearly all of Broward County is incorporated, so permits for a stalled project are usually handled by the city, whether that is Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood, Pembroke Pines, Miramar, Lauderhill or another municipality, under the Florida Building Code’s high-velocity hurricane zone provisions, with the county’s own permitting covering the few unincorporated pockets. Unfinished construction here is typically tear-down rebuilds and second-story additions in older neighborhoods, duplex and triplex projects, and new single-family homes on infill lots that ran over budget when prices climbed.
Libera Capital Group buys Broward properties in every phase. Shell-only structures, inactive or expired permits, code enforcement and unsafe-structure cases, builders that went out of business, contractors with suspended or revoked licenses, GCs who ran out of money, lis pendens from construction-lien or lender suits, and lots liened for overgrowth are all on the table. We handle the city paperwork after closing. See our guide to selling unfinished construction for how we arrive at an offer.
Who Buys Houses in Broward County?
Libera Capital Group buys houses in Broward County, and sellers here usually compare several kinds of buyers. Local and statewide cash buyers like us purchase as-is; national “we buy houses” franchises and iBuyers run standardized offer programs in many Broward cities; investors and landlords compete for rentals and small multifamily; and retail buyers come through a listing agent, typically with a mortgage, inspections, condo association approval and insurance to secure.
Broward properties often have issues that complicate a financed sale: flood zones and storm damage, condo buildings working through building-safety inspections and reserve requirements, older roofs that are hard to insure, and owners managing the sale from out of state. A Florida buyer with a Fort Myers office that closes remotely across the state can review the property, buy it in current condition and close with a local title company on your timeline.
Frequently Asked Questions about Selling in Broward County
Who buys houses in Broward County, FL?
Libera Capital Group buys houses in Broward County for cash — in Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood, Pembroke Pines, Coral Springs, Pompano Beach, Davie, Plantation, Sunrise and the rest of the county. We buy single-family homes, condos, small multifamily and commercial property as-is, including for out-of-state owners. Our team speaks Spanish, Haitian Creole and Portuguese; call (239) 686-0823 or use the form below. You can also list with a local agent or compare offers — see cash offer vs. listing.
Do you buy Fort Lauderdale homes that flooded in April 2023?
Yes. Many homes in Edgewood, Riverland and other low-lying neighborhoods flooded during that storm, often without flood insurance. We buy those homes whether they were repaired, partly gutted or left as-is, and we account for remediation and permitting in the offer.
Can I sell my 55-plus condo in Pembroke Pines, Sunrise or Deerfield Beach?
Yes. We buy units in age-restricted communities, including from heirs. Some associations require approval of buyers or have occupancy rules, which we work through with the association. Assessments and estoppel amounts are addressed in the contract so you know your net before closing.
Will you buy a building that needs a safety inspection or recertification?
Yes. We buy apartment, mixed-use and commercial buildings that are due for or have failed Broward’s building safety inspection, including those with required repairs or open violations. We price engineering and repair costs into our offer.
Do you buy canal-front homes with bad seawalls?
Yes. Seawall repair or replacement can be costly and require permits and engineering. We buy waterfront homes with deteriorating seawalls as-is, so you do not have to manage the project or carry the cost before you sell.
How quickly can you close in Broward?
With clear title, we can often close in as little as 7–14 days. Probate, municipal liens, open permits or association approvals can add time. We will tell you about any expected delays up front, and we can also schedule a later closing if you need it.
Do you buy commercial property near Port Everglades or in Pompano Beach?
Yes. We buy warehouses, flex space, retail strips, offices and small hotels throughout Broward. Vacant, partly leased or tired properties are welcome, and we can discuss sale-leasebacks or timing that works with a 1031 exchange.
Can I sell a house with tenants still living there?
Yes. We regularly buy occupied rentals, including those with tenants behind on rent or on month-to-month terms. Leases generally transfer with the property, so you do not need to evict anyone or prepare the unit before selling.
Is Broward County part of your main market?
Our home market is Southwest Florida — Lee, Collier, Charlotte, Sarasota, Hendry, Glades and DeSoto counties — but we buy statewide, including throughout Broward. We work with Florida title companies and local professionals to close smoothly.
Do you buy vacant lots in Broward?
No. Libera Capital Group buys houses and improved commercial property only. For lots and acreage anywhere in Florida, contact our land division SWFLLand.com.
What will a cash buyer offer for my house in Coral Springs or Davie?
Our offer starts from the after-repair value, meaning what comparable updated homes in your Coral Springs or Davie neighborhood have sold for. We deduct the specific repairs, our holding and closing costs and a margin for risk, then send the calculation in writing so you can check it. Roof age, pool and screen enclosure condition, original plumbing and HOA restrictions are the Broward details that shift the figure most.
Can I sell a Plantation or Lauderhill house with failing cast-iron drain pipes?
Yes, we buy older Broward homes with cracked or collapsing cast-iron drain lines and do not ask you to repipe first. Many houses built from the 1950s through the 1970s still have original cast iron under the slab. We estimate the replumbing cost, subtract it once, and you skip trenching, permits and the insurance questions that a buyer’s inspector would raise.
Can I sell my house in Hollywood or Lauderhill if I’m behind on mortgage payments?
Yes, and selling before a foreclosure judgment can help protect your equity and credit. Florida foreclosures run through the courts, which usually leaves time to close a cash sale if you act early. We order a payoff from your lender, and the title company pays the loan, including arrears and fees, at closing. A Florida attorney or HUD-approved housing counselor can explain your other options.
How do I sell an inherited house in Broward County that’s still in probate?
The personal representative named by the Broward probate court can usually sign the sale once Letters of Administration are issued. We can sign a contract while probate is open and set closing for when the court or your attorney says the estate is ready. We buy the house with the furniture and belongings still inside, and the probate attorney confirms what approvals are required.
Should I list my Fort Lauderdale home with a realtor or sell it for cash?
List it if the home is updated, insurable and you can wait; sell for cash if it needs work or time matters. In Fort Lauderdale, a dated roof or seawall can stall a financed sale at the insurance or appraisal stage. Weigh commissions often near 5–6%, repairs and months of carrying costs against a firm cash price, and choose the higher net.
Can I sell a stalled second-story addition in Fort Lauderdale or Hollywood?
Yes, we buy Broward homes with unfinished additions, including second stories left framed or open to the weather. We evaluate structural condition, water intrusion into the original house, the city permit status and what it will cost to finish or remove the work. You don’t need to fix anything or bring the permit current before selling to us.
Will you buy an unfinished duplex or triplex project in Broward County?
Yes, we buy half-built small multifamily projects in Broward as well as single-family homes. Our offer compares finished rents and sales nearby with the remaining build, permit and holding costs, and we show each figure in writing. Investors who need to exit a stalled project can often close quickly once title is clear.
