Single-family in Miami Beach is split: most addresses enforce a 6-month minimum lease (mid-term play), specific STR-zoned pockets allow daily rentals. We surface the live inventory and tell you which side of that line your prospect is on before you write an offer.
Investment thesis
Three reasons single-family STR investments outperform condos on every cash-flow metric.
Condos charge $700-$2,400/mo HOA and impose rules that change without notice. Houses have $0 HOA, you set the rules, and special assessments only happen if YOU decide to renovate.
A house rents whole, not by the room, and carries no association rulebook to work around. What any particular house earns turns on its size, its water frontage and its finish — ask and we will model the one you are actually looking at.
No association can change the terms on a house, but the city can: short-stay rental is set by municipal ordinance, then by zoning district, then by the parcel itself. We read it by folio before recommending anything, and the answer is written down, dated and sourced.
Cost & rules
Costs structure is fundamentally different from condos — no HOA, but higher property tax and insurance. Net result: more cash flow.

ROI projections
House investments have higher purchase prices but lower fixed costs (no HOA). Cap rates often beat condos because revenue scales with space/amenities, not floor count.
| Unit type | Price | STR rev | HOA/yr | NOI | Cap rate |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| NBV 3BR (median) | $1.1M | $130k | $0 | $78k | 7.1% |
| NBV 4BR (modelled) | $1.38M | $180k | $0 | $109k | 7.9% |
| NBV 5BR waterfront | $2.5M | $250k | $0 | $155k | 6.2% |
