A city of planned communities, and an association behind most doors.
Short-term rentals are limited here. Annual leases are the plan we lead with, and your community usually has its own rules. The panel shows what the city allows.
Pembroke Pines covers a wide stretch of southwest Broward, from the older condo and villa communities near University Drive west to the newer neighborhoods along the Everglades edge. Most of the city was built as master-planned communities, so single-family homes in places like Pembroke Lakes, Pembroke Falls, Chapel Trail and Pembroke Isles sit alongside large 55 and older condo communities, townhomes and gated golf neighborhoods such as Grand Palms.
Long-term rentals are the core of the market. Families come for the schools, the parks and the city's own charter school system, and many tenants work at the hospitals and offices along Pines Boulevard and the I-75 corridor or commute to Fort Lauderdale and Miami. Annual leases are the norm, and homes that are kept in good repair rent to stable households who often renew. Turnover work here is mostly about keeping the home up to the association's appearance standards: paint, landscaping, roofs and pools. Associations here do send violation letters, and we answer them before they turn into fines.
In Pembroke Pines the association usually decides what is possible. Many HOAs and condo associations require tenant applications and approval, set minimum lease terms, and some limit leasing in the first years of ownership or bar it entirely in age-restricted sections. On short-term rentals, we found no city vacation rental program on official city pages, so we confirm with the city and read the association documents before any short stay is considered.
Many owners here are also buying or trading within the city. Brandon Schneider also works as a licensed broker, helping buyers in Pembroke Lakes, Chapel Trail and the rest of the city check association rules and rental numbers on a home, townhome or small multifamily property before they commit; after closing, we take over leasing and management, with statements and repairs in the owner app.

Renting in Pembroke Pines, answered.
Short answers here. Anything longer belongs in a guide, linked below.
Do you manage long-term rentals in Pembroke Pines too?
Yes. Annual and seasonal leases, with the same team and the same app.
Can you help me buy or sell in Pembroke Pines?
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 Pembroke Pines condo short-term?
We found no city vacation rental ordinance or registration program on official city pages. We confirm with the city's business tax and planning offices before listing. 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 Pembroke Pines?
No city vacation rental registration found. The city requires a Local Business Tax Receipt for nearly all business activity (renewed each October 1), followed by a Broward County business tax receipt, plus a DBPR license and Florida and Broward tourist tax accounts. Whether a rental home also needs a city Certificate of Use is unconfirmed. Guests pay 13% in taxes on stays of 6 months or less (6% state + 1% county surtax + 6% Broward tourist development). We handle the filings as part of the service.
What is the minimum stay in Pembroke Pines?
No city minimum found. Many associations set their own minimum, often 30 days or more, so the building usually decides.
Can the state or Pembroke Pines 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.
Can I lease a condo in a 55 and older community in Pembroke Pines?
Often yes, but the association sets the terms. Age-restricted communities usually require the tenant to meet the age rules and pass the association's approval, and some limit how often a unit can be leased. We read the documents and handle the application before you sign anyone.
