Selling a House in Davie: What Is Actually Different
Public information with the source next to it, not a paragraph that sounds local.
Davie was settled in 1909 as Zona, renamed in 1916 for R.P. Davie, first incorporated in 1925 and reincorporated in 1961. Today the Town covers about 35 square miles of central Broward and still describes itself by its rural atmosphere, western-themed district and more than 165 miles of trails. Its houses are younger than that history: the median home was built in 1989 and fewer than one in three predates 1980, so the Davie house that reaches us usually needs a roof, a kitchen or an open permit closed out.
About two of every three of Davie's 38,677 occupied homes are lived in by their owners; the typical owner has been in the house since 2012, and more than one in four owner households is headed by someone 65 or older. So a house here may come to us through an estate in probate at the Seventeenth Judicial Circuit, a landlord with a tenant in place, a move that cannot wait or payments that slipped. With an estate, we work alongside its attorney and pay that attorney at closing.
Before closing, the title company orders the Town Clerk's lien search: $170 per folio for three to four business days or $185 for 48 business hours, always with an estoppel letter. It covers utility balances, special assessments, open code violations, unsafe structures, recorded liens and open and expired permits, and the Town points to Broward County's records for other recorded liens. Permit status is on the Town's eSuite portal. Code cases go before a Special Magistrate, a Florida Bar attorney chosen by the Mayor and Town Council, and ignoring a ruling can lead to a code lien in the county public records. We order and read the search before the offer, and any balance shows as a line before you sign.

What does the Town of Davie's lien search show, and how long does it take?
The Town Clerk's Office runs it per folio: $170 for three to four business days, or $185 for 48 business hours if the request is in before 2 p.m., always with an estoppel letter. It covers utility balances, special assessments, lot clearing, open code violations, unsafe structures, recorded liens and open and expired permits. We order it early, check Broward County's public records too, as the Town advises, and any balance shows as a line before you sign.
-
My Davie house has an open code case. Can you still buy it?
Yes. Davie's code cases go from the Police Department's Code Compliance Division to a Special Magistrate, who can impose fines of up to $1,000 a day per violation, and ignoring a ruling can lead to a code lien in the county public records. Open code violations show on the Town's lien search, so we see them before the offer and buy with the case attached. We are buyers, not lawyers, and we give no legal advice.
-
Do you buy in Ivanhoe, Shenandoah, Forest Ridge and the rest of Davie?
Yes, anywhere inside the Town: Ivanhoe, Shenandoah, Forest Ridge, Rolling Hills, Long Lake Ranches, Oak Hill and every other neighborhood. The median Davie home dates from 1989, so a roof that is due or an original kitchen is what we usually price in, not a reason to say no. We walk the house, show you the comps and repair numbers we used, and if there is an HOA, its balance shows as a line before you sign.

I inherited a house in Davie. Can you buy it while probate is open?
Yes. The case runs through the Seventeenth Judicial Circuit's probate division in Broward, and we work alongside the estate's attorney and pay that attorney at closing. With more than one in four owner households in Davie headed by someone 65 or older, it is a situation we plan for, not an exception. Your attorney runs the estate; we are buyers, not lawyers, and we give no legal advice.
