Sell Your Home with a licensed agent in Davie, FL
Sell Your Home in Davie and the surrounding area, with a licensed real-estate professional. No obligation.
Davie kept its large-lot, equestrian and ranch-style zoning, so a sale here can mean a gated subdivision home, a townhome, or an acreage property with barns and a long driveway gate. Census data (ACS 5-year, 2022) puts the median year built at 1988, so many Davie homes are old enough that buyers and insurers ask about roof age, four-point inspections and wind-mitigation features. Planning a sale means sorting out flood disclosure, inspection paperwork and any association approval before you list.
A licensed real-estate professional, either Premier Real Estate Group Inc or a licensed agent we refer you to, will contact you by phone or email. We offer a free consultation and a free comparative market analysis. That analysis is an opinion of value prepared by a licensee, not an appraisal and not an automated estimate, and there is no obligation.
Davie's low, canal-laced terrain toward the Everglades means high water tables and wind-driven rain, so buyers often ask about flood-zone status and flood-insurance history. Humidity year-round also wears on garage door springs, gate operators, door bottoms and exterior hardware, and buyers tend to notice these during showings and inspections. The housing stock is largely 1970s through 2000s concrete block and stucco with tile or shingle roofs, and HOA-governed and gated communities are very common on the western side of town. That makes association documents part of many Davie sales. Hurricane season (June 1 to November 30) also shapes what buyers and insurers want to see on impact-rated openings and roof condition.
What to know in Davie
Flood zone and flood disclosure
Flood zones come from FEMA maps, and a lender generally requires flood insurance on a home in a Special Flood Hazard Area. Homes outside one can still flood. Florida sellers must give buyers a flood disclosure (s. 689.302, F.S.), so gather any flood history before you list.
Four-point inspection on a 1980s-era home
With a median build year of 1988 per the Census, many Davie homes fall into the age range where insurers commonly ask for a four-point inspection of roof, electrical, plumbing and HVAC. Having one ready can answer buyer questions early.
Wind-mitigation documentation
A licensed inspector completes the uniform mitigation form OIR-B1-1802 to document features like roof-to-wall connections and impact-rated openings. Buyers may use it when pricing insurance, and credits vary by insurer.
Roof age and insurability
Roof age and condition are frequently the deciding factor in whether coverage is offered at all. On concrete tile or shingle roofs, expect buyers to ask about age and any repairs.
HOA and condo association documents
Gated communities, townhomes and condos are common in Davie. Associations may require buyer approval and estoppel certificates, and the governing documents and budgets are part of the buyer's due diligence.
Condo milestone inspections and SIRS
For condo buildings three stories or taller, Florida requires a milestone inspection at 30 years (s. 553.899, F.S.) and a structural integrity reserve study (s. 718.112(2)(g), F.S.). Buyers should ask for these reports, and they can affect reserves, assessments and buyer financing.
Gates, barns and outbuildings
Acreage and equestrian-style properties often have swing or slide gates, keypads and outbuildings. Humidity and dust corrode this hardware, and open permits on outbuildings can surface at sale, so check them before listing.
How we help

- Preparing the homeWe help you decide what to address first, such as inspection documents, gate and door hardware, and permit questions, before photos and showings.
- Listing, marketing and showingsWe list and market the property and coordinate showings. Where an HOA or condo applies, we help assemble the association materials buyers will ask for.
- Offers, inspections and appraisalWe review offers and contingencies with you, then help negotiate inspection and appraisal issues such as roof age, insurability and flood questions.
- Coordinating through closingWe work with the title company or closing attorney to keep paperwork moving toward closing. No loan, approval or timeline can be promised.
Florida rules and paperwork in Davie
Florida sellers typically use a written listing agreement, a brokerage relationship disclosure and a purchase contract, often the FR/BAR or FR/BAR 'As Is' form. Sellers must disclose known material defects that are not readily observable and provide the flood disclosure. Where an HOA or condo applies, governing documents and budgets are delivered, and association approval applies only where the documents require it. A short statutory cancellation right can apply to resale condo contracts after the required documents are delivered. On closing taxes, documentary stamp tax on the deed is 70 cents per 100 dollars of the price (s. 201.02, F.S.). On a buyer's new mortgage, the note stamp tax is 35 cents per 100 dollars of the amount financed (s. 201.08, F.S.), and the nonrecurring intangible tax is 2 mills (s. 199.133, F.S.). Who pays each item is set by the purchase contract and is negotiable. You can estimate these with the free Florida Doc Stamp & Closing Tax Calculator on this site at /tools/florida-closing-costs. If this is your primary residence, homestead and the Save Our Homes cap are handled through the Broward County property appraiser, generally by March 1 of the year after moving in, and accrued savings may be portable to a new Florida homestead. Verify requirements with the Florida DBPR Division of Real Estate (FREC), your association and a Florida attorney or CPA.

Timing and next steps
In Davie, demand rises in May and June as owners prepare for hurricane season and again from August through October after storms, with a secondary bump in the dry snowbird months when seasonal residents reopen homes.

Sell Your Home in Davie: common questions
- Do I need a four-point or wind-mitigation inspection to sell my Davie home?
- Florida does not require one for every sale, but insurers commonly ask for a four-point inspection on older homes, and wind-mitigation credits depend on documented features. Many Davie homes date from around the late 1980s, so buyers often ask for these reports. Confirm requirements with your insurance agent.
- Will buyers ask about flood zone status in Davie?
- Often, yes. Davie's low, canal-laced terrain and high water tables make flood history a common question. Florida requires sellers to give a flood disclosure (s. 689.302, F.S.), and lenders generally require flood insurance in a Special Flood Hazard Area.
- What if my home is in an HOA or gated community?
- HOA-governed and gated communities are very common on the western side of Davie. Associations may require buyer approval and estoppel certificates, and the documents and budgets are part of the buyer's review. Approval cannot be promised, so check your governing documents early.
- Who pays documentary stamp tax when I sell?
- Documentary stamp tax on the deed is 70 cents per 100 dollars of the price. Who pays it is set by the purchase contract and is negotiable. Try the free calculator at /tools/florida-closing-costs.
- Does my condo need milestone inspection or SIRS reports?
- For condo buildings three stories or taller, Florida requires a milestone inspection once the building reaches 30 years and a structural integrity reserve study. Buyers should ask for the association's reports. Verify details with your association.
