Pet Friendly Rentals
When it comes to pet friendly rentals, not all landlords put out the welcome mat. But some cities tend to be more open to pet-owning renters.
Some of the hottest properties here in the Fort Lauderdale are pet friendly. Wilton Station, Island City Lofts and Las Olas River House have no weight restrictions and allow 2 pets (as of this writing). Strada 315, The Courtyards and The Waves Las Olas allow 2 pets as well, with a weight restriction of 40 pounds. If you’re looking for Fort Lauderdale rentals with no restrictions, 350 Las Olas Place and Palm Island Villas could be the place for you.
Added rental costs are common for pet owners, including deposits, fees and higher rents. Recently in the Ft. Lauderdale area we’ve seen additional rent instead of a pet deposit. However, 78% of the listings only charged one of these fees and 22% charged two, said Ralph McLaughlin, housing economist at Trulia. “It’s very unlikely you will get hit with all three.”
Trulia analyzed seven factors to determine the rankings, including the number of listings on its website that allow pets, the costs associated with renting as a pet owner and the concentration of pet-related businesses. The study included properties listed in the 25 biggest rental markets since the start of 2013. Miami ranked #21; Fort Lauderdale was not noted in the study.
