South Florida communities — what to expect before you buy.
South Florida communities come in a few distinct types, and each attracts a different kind of buyer. Gated communities prioritize security and usually include a clubhouse. Golf communities offer course access through the HOA. 55+ communities — especially the GL Homes Valencia series in Palm Beach County — combine resort amenities with age-qualified pricing. Waterfront communities add canal, lake, or Intracoastal access.
Palm Beach County alone has over 300 established communities. Broward adds 150 more. Miami-Dade covers everything from country club estates in Coral Gables to newer master-planned developments in Doral.
HOA fees across South Florida communities range from around $150/month for basic gated communities to $898/month in full-service resort developments like Valencia Grand. What that fee covers varies — some include exterior insurance, lawn care, and full amenity access; others cover only security and shared areas.
Each page in this directory shows current MLS listings, community type, HOA fee range, and available amenities. If you are comparing two or three communities, our agents can arrange tours on the same day.

Questions about South Florida communities.
What does each South Florida community page include?
Each page lists active MLS listings, current median price, HOA fee range, community type (gated, golf, 55+, waterfront), and available amenities. Listing counts update daily from the Beaches MLS feed.
Do all South Florida communities have HOA fees?
Most do. HOA fees in Palm Beach County typically range from $150 to $898/month. Some fees cover exterior insurance, landscaping, and full amenity access. Others cover only shared areas and a gate. Check the individual community page for the specific range before you tour.
Can I rent inside a gated community?
It depends on the community. Age-restricted 55+ communities generally do not allow rentals. Most gated communities allow rentals but require HOA approval and often have a minimum lease term of 3 to 12 months. Each community page notes rental eligibility where available.
How much does buyer representation cost in a South Florida community?
Nothing — buyers pay no agent commission under current Florida real estate law. Pure Equity Realty represents buyers at no cost. We specialize in South Florida communities and can show you any active listing on the MLS, including gated and golf communities that require agent access to enter.
