I am a Florida REALTOR® (SL3247858, brokered through LoKation) and a Florida Certified General Contractor (CGC1528750). When you sell a house, the first thing that changes the answer is the town, because each city, town or village permits its own work. Here are six seller pages from this week’s round, one section per page. None of them lists a home or a price.
Selling in Boynton Beach: which side of Federal Highway?
Boynton Beach runs its own Building Division at City Hall, 100 E. Ocean Avenue, and wind exposure is strongest east of Federal Highway, so where the house sits changes what a window repair involves. Read the page →
Selling in Delray Beach: is the house inside a historic district?
Delray Beach permits through its own Building Division at 100 NW 1st Avenue, and a parcel should be checked against the city limits before you assume which office applies. Read the page →
Selling in Greenacres: City desk or county?
Greenacres runs its own Building Division out of City Hall at 5800 Melaleuca Lane, so pre-listing repairs are permitted by the City, and condo and HOA resale paperwork is part of the timeline. Read the page →
Selling in Jupiter: the Town permit desk and the coastal line
Jupiter is an incorporated town with its own Building Department at 210 Military Trail, and oceanfront and Loxahatchee River lots can also fall under Coastal Construction Control Line provisions. Read the page →
Selling in Lake Worth: which Lake Worth is it?
“Lake Worth” can mean the City of Lake Worth Beach or the unincorporated land to its west, and they sit under different permit offices, so confirm the jurisdiction from the parcel record first. Read the page →
Selling in Palm Beach Gardens: whose jurisdiction is the address?
Inside the city limits the City Building Division at 10500 N Military Trail issues the permit, but mailing addresses blur across the city, unincorporated county, North Palm Beach, Juno Beach and Jupiter. Read the page →
New this week: listing agent for Palm Springs, covering the Village permit desk at 226 Cypress Lane, condo resale rules and the 170 mph wind band. The rest of the county sits under Real Estate. If you already know the town and want to talk, call (561) 779-3213.
