First, make a needs list: How many bedrooms/square footage? Do you want a view or to live near a beach? Do you need nearby schools and how nearby? Walking distance or school bus? Distance to job commutes. A clubhouse with fitness and other activities to make new friends quickly? Easy access to at least one of the three airports here?

How to find the right house? 

A Lang Realty agent’s expertise is indispensable. Lang Realty agents know the markets, both existing listings including 55+ age-restricted communities with tax incentives, and brand new construction. Country clubs here are residential and require membership for amenities like a golf course. Many communities have homeowner association (HOA or condo) fees and are gated for additional security.

If you’re asking, “what do I need to buy a house in south Florida?” That’s easy. Your Lang Realty agent will help determine how much mortgage, property tax and HOA fees you can afford and age-related property tax exemptions for Florida residents. Then your agent will help you get pre-approved so your transaction can move quickly.

And finally, choose your best places to buy property in south Florida. This is a quality-of-life issue for house hunters. Are you looking for a quiet getaway or a community that offers cultural and social activities and an active retail and restaurant scene?
