About the area

An island of seasonal leases, not nightly stays.

Short-term rentals are limited here. We manage anything you own here: annual and seasonal leases, upkeep and the care between tenants.

The Town of Palm Beach is a narrow barrier island between the Atlantic and Lake Worth Lagoon, across the bridges from West Palm Beach. Housing runs from oceanfront and lakefront estates in the Estate Section and the North End to in-town homes near Worth Avenue and mid-rise condos along the South End. Much of the island fills up in the winter season and empties out in summer, so a house can sit vacant for months at a time between uses.

The town's zoning shapes the rental market more than anything else. Residential use is defined as occupancy of at least 3 months, with shorter stays allowed no more than 3 times in a calendar year, and hotel-style or timeshare use is excluded. In practice, the island's rental market is seasonal: furnished homes and condos leased for the winter, a few shorter stays where the rules and the building allow, and annual leases in between.

That makes the work less about turnover and more about care. Seasonal tenants expect a home that is ready on arrival, staff who answer quickly and vendors who know island logistics. Owners who are away for months want inspections, storm preparation and someone watching the house between leases. Condo associations add their own lease minimums and approval steps, and we coordinate with each board before a lease is signed. Applications can take time, so we start them early enough that a winter tenant is approved before the season begins.

Pricing a seasonal lease, finding a tenant or planning a sale on the island all fall to Brandon Schneider, our licensed broker. Every lease, invoice and inspection report shows up in the same owner app. Island homes often have staff, gardeners and private vendors already in place; we work alongside them instead of replacing them, and coordinate access, schedules and invoices so nothing falls through the cracks while you are away.

Palm Beach

Renting in Palm Beach, answered.

Short answers here. Anything longer belongs in a guide, linked below.

Do you manage long-term rentals in Palm Beach too?

Yes. Annual and seasonal leases, with the same team and the same app.

Can you help me buy or sell in Palm Beach?

Yes. Brandon Schneider is a licensed broker: he can list and sell your property, or find your next one, and we can manage it after closing.

What does management cost?

It depends on the property. The only thing we say publicly: if you are paying over 15%, let's compare.

Can I rent my Palm Beach condo short-term?

Town zoning defines residential use as occupancy of at least 3 months, with stays under 3 months allowed no more than 3 times per calendar year. Hotel, motel and timeshare-style use is excluded. Your building's documents can be stricter than the city, so we confirm both before listing.

What licenses do I need for a short-term rental in Palm Beach?

Town business tax receipt, Palm Beach County short-term rental business tax receipt for each unit, DBPR license for stays under 30 days, and Florida sales tax and Palm Beach County tourist tax accounts. Guests pay 12.5% in taxes on stays of 6 months or less (6% state + 0.5% Palm Beach County school surtax + 6% Palm Beach County tourist development). We handle the filings as part of the service.

What is the minimum stay in Palm Beach?

3 months, with 3 shorter stays a year. Association rules can be stricter, so we confirm both before you rent.

Can the state or Palm Beach change these rules?

Yes, within limits. Under Florida law (FS 509.032(7)), cities cannot ban vacation rentals or limit how long or how often they are rented, but rules adopted before June 1, 2011 still stand. A 2024 rewrite of the state law (SB 280) was vetoed. Every short-term rental in Florida also needs a DBPR transient public lodging license and state sales and tourist tax accounts.

Do you look after Palm Beach homes between seasonal leases?

Yes. We inspect the house on a schedule, handle storm preparation, coordinate vendors and keep it ready for the next tenant or for your return, with every visit logged in the owner app.
