About Our Live Local Act Consulting in Pembroke Pines
We help owners and developers of rental properties claim the property tax savings the Live Local Act allows. Before any filing starts, you get a written outline of the scope and what affects our fee, so you know exactly what you are paying for.
Why we work the way we do
The Live Local Act gives qualifying multifamily properties a property tax exemption for units rented to residents at set income levels. The savings can be meaningful, but the path runs through two agencies, specific forms and firm deadlines. A single missed step can cost a full year of exemption.
Our work covers the whole chain: confirming eligibility, certification through the Florida Housing Finance Corporation, the DR-504AFH filing with the county property appraiser, and the yearly recertification and resident income verification that keep the exemption in place. We meet with clients at our office, or by phone and video, whichever fits your schedule.
A common worry for property owners is being billed for work they never expected. So we put the scope in writing first. It lists which filings your property needs, which documents we will ask you for, and what could change the fee, such as unit count, the number of income tiers or how current your rent rolls are. Nothing gets added later without your approval.
What you can count on from us
Scope and fee factors on paper
Before we file anything, you receive a written outline of the work and what drives the cost. If something changes midway, we tell you and put it in writing before moving ahead.
An honest eligibility answer
Our free eligibility check looks at unit counts, rent levels and income set-asides. If your property does not qualify, we say so before you spend money on filings.
Deadlines tracked for you
Certification and county filings run on a yearly calendar. We keep track of the dates for each property and reach out early, so recertification never turns into a last-minute scramble.
Experience with larger developers
Our clients include Coral Rock Development Group and Terra Group. Smaller owners get the same written scope and the same careful attention to every document.
Serving Pembroke Pines and nearby cities
We work with property owners across Pembroke Pines and the surrounding area, including Miramar, Davie, Cooper City, Weston, Plantation, Miami Gardens and Miami Lakes. Since much of our work happens by phone and video, distance is rarely an issue. Properties in Miami-Dade file with that county's property appraiser rather than Broward's, and we prepare each packet for the office that will actually review it.
