Jurisdiction Matters
Miami-Dade County zoning governs unincorporated areas, while municipalities such as Miami, Miami Beach and Coral Gables maintain their own zoning rules and review processes.
South Florida Market
Real Estate in Miami-Dade County
Miami-Dade combines distinct municipal and unincorporated markets, each with its own property, land-use and operating considerations. We help clients evaluate residential and commercial decisions with the location, asset and objective in view.
Property & Flood Records
County property records and current FEMA flood information are essential starting points, but parcel-specific conditions should be confirmed during diligence.
Access & Connectivity
Road access, parking, Metrorail and Metromover proximity can shape how a home, office, retail space or investment property functions.
Our approach
Evaluate the market, then the property

- 03
Advance with diligence
Coordinate the appropriate legal, financial, inspection and technical specialists before commitment.
Common questions
Does one zoning code apply throughout Miami-Dade County?
No. County zoning applies in unincorporated areas, while incorporated cities generally administer their own zoning codes. The controlling jurisdiction should be confirmed for each property.
Where can I check a Miami-Dade property’s records and flood zone?
The Miami-Dade Property Appraiser provides parcel and assessment records. Current flood information should be checked through the county flood resources and FEMA’s map service for the specific address.
General information only. Real estate, legal, tax, lending and technical questions should be reviewed by the appropriate licensed professional for the specific transaction.
