We Buy Houses in Aventura, As They Sit

Aventura covers 3.2 square miles between the Broward County line, the Florida East Coast Railway, the Intracoastal Waterway and NE 176th Street. Its story began when developer Don Soffer bought 785 acres of vacant shoreline, and its voters approved the City's charter on November 7, 1995. The median home was built in 1989 and about one in four (26%) predates 1980. Most of the City lies in FEMA Special Flood Hazard Areas, and its flood rules require a building to meet the requirements for a new one, including an elevated lowest floor, once improvements within a year cost half its market value or more; we buy older houses as they sit.

Of Aventura's 17,507 households, 63.6% own their home, the typical owner has been in it since 2013, and 44% of owner households are headed by someone 65 or older. Here that means estates in probate at the Eleventh Judicial Circuit, moves that cannot wait and, with more than a third of homes rented, houses sold with a tenant in them. We work alongside the estate's attorney and pay that attorney at closing, and you do not have to evict anyone for us.

The title company orders the City's lien search from the Community Development Department, which reviews City liens, open permits and code compliance cases; since October 1, 2026 it costs $125 per request, up from $50. Permits and code cases are in the City's eTRAKiT portal. Disputed or uncorrected code cases go before a Special Master, a recorded order imposing a civil penalty becomes a lien on the property, and an owner who sells while a case awaits its hearing must disclose it to the buyer in writing. We order and read all of it before the offer, and any balance shows as a line before you sign.
