What's specific here
Selling a House in Parkland: What Is Actually Different
Public information with the source next to it, not a paragraph that sounds local.
Bruce B. Blount and his father had bought more than 1,000 acres of undeveloped Everglades land in northwest Broward County, and in the late 1950s he decided to parcel off plots of it: BBB Ranches. Incorporated in 1963 on 420 acres, the City now covers more than 8,000, from State Road 7 west to the Everglades and from the Sawgrass Expressway north to Loxahatchee Road. The median home dates from 2006 and just 1% predate 1980, so the house that reaches us is rarely old; what may come with it is an association, and the City keeps a contact list of them.
More than five of every six of Parkland's 11,137 occupied homes (85.1%) are lived in by their owners. The typical owner has been there since 2015, and about one in five owner households (21%) is headed by someone 65 or older. So what brings a seller to us is usually a deadline: a move that cannot wait, or payments that slipped. With an estate, the probate case is in Broward's Seventeenth Judicial Circuit; we work alongside the estate's attorney and pay that attorney at closing.
The City answers a lien request by mail in three to five business days, $60 per property, covering code enforcement liens, special assessments, recording fees and building permits. Water and sewer, which the City says it does not provide, come from the City of Coconut Creek, the North Springs Improvement District or Parkland Utilities, Inc. The Special Magistrate mitigates a recorded code lien only once the violation is cured or under a compliance agreement, never below the City's documented costs, and the Building Division says an expired permit is the current owner's responsibility. We read it all before the offer, and any balance shows as a line before you sign.

- Before closing in Parkland
-
- The City's Lien Request Form costs $60 per address or property, with 3 to 5 business days allowed for processing, not counting mail time; results go back by mail in a stamped, self-addressed envelope (no longer by fax), and the City advises of any added cost if extensive research is required. It reports code enforcement liens, special assessments, recording fees and building permits; solid waste lien status comes from Waste Management, and taxes and county assessments from the Broward County Tax Collector. Source
- The City says it does not provide water service: the City of Coconut Creek serves communities such as Terramar, Mill Run and Parkland Place; the North Springs Improvement District serves Heron Bay, Parkland Golf & Country Club, MiraLago and Tall Pines, among others; and Parkland Utilities, Inc., which the City says is in no way affiliated with it, serves Cypresshead, The Mews, Parkside Estates and Parkland Town Center. Source
- A respondent who has cured a code violation, as determined by the City, may apply in writing to the special magistrate for mitigation of the fine or lien: the fee is $500, the City Clerk schedules a hearing within 45 days, and all documentation is due at least 10 days before it. The magistrate may not consider the impact of the request on a prospective sale, and can mitigate an uncured violation only on special findings and with a code compliance and mitigation agreement with the City. Source
- The City's mitigation application requires a copy of the recorded Order of Imposition of Fine and Claim of Lien and a Certificate of Compliance from the Code Enforcement Officer; the Special Magistrate mitigates only if good cause exists, never below the City's documented costs, and the revised order is final only if its amount is paid within 30 days. Source
- The FY2026-2027 fee schedule, effective October 1, 2026, sets the residential lien search at $60 per property folio number and the lien mitigation application at $500 per lien, and lists lien mitigation administrative support costs per case of $35.50 for recording, mailings and lien satisfaction preparation and a $3,000.00 minimum that may vary with the complexity of the case. An expired permit costs, per discipline affected, $150, $175 or $200 for its first, second or third extension, or half the original permit cost if greater. Source
- The Building Division's FAQ says an expired permit or work done without a permit becomes the new owner's problem: all construction work that requires a permit is the responsibility of the current property owner. Source

Straight answers
Questions Sellers Ask Us
The ones people ask about this, answered straight.
-
Do you buy in Heron Bay, MiraLago and Parkland Golf & Country Club?
Yes, anywhere inside the City of Parkland, from Heron Bay, MiraLago and Parkland Isles to Cypresshead, Pinetree Estates and the Ranches. The City keeps a contact list of its homeowners' associations, so an HOA is what we expect: we walk the house, show you the comps and repair numbers we used, and any HOA balance shows as a line before you sign.
-
What does the City of Parkland's lien search cover, and how long does it take?
The City charges $60 per property and allows three to five business days plus mail time, since results come back by mail. It reports code enforcement liens, special assessments, recording fees and building permits. Water and sewer are not on it: depending on the community, that balance comes from the City of Coconut Creek, the North Springs Improvement District or Parkland Utilities, Inc., so we check that account too. We order it early, read it before the offer, and any balance shows as a line before you sign.
-
My Parkland house has a code lien or an expired permit. Can you still buy it?
Yes, as it sits. In Parkland the Special Magistrate can mitigate a recorded code lien only once the violation is cured or under a compliance agreement with the City, never below the City's documented costs and without weighing what it means for a sale; the application is $500 per lien, and the fee schedule lists administrative support costs with a $3,000 minimum per case. The Building Division says an expired permit is the current owner's responsibility, so we buy with it attached and work it with the City ourselves. We are buyers, not lawyers, and we give no legal advice.
-
I'm relocating and behind on the mortgage. Can you buy my Parkland house on my timeline?
Yes. Owners live in 85.1% of Parkland's occupied homes, so the seller is usually the one moving out, and you pick the closing date; the relocation plan covers movers and a rental agent for your next place. We bring in foreclosure attorneys and handle the bank ourselves, and the payoff, plus any HOA or water balance, shows as a line before you sign. We are buyers, not lawyers, and we give no legal advice.
