Fair-market rents by ZIP (HUD FY2026)
HUD's Small Area Fair Market Rents set a government benchmark for rents by ZIP and bedroom count. They're a useful floor for underwriting, though actual market rents vary by condition and building. (For a calibrated, property-specific estimate from real closed leases, that's what ReSharpe does inside the app.)
| ZIP | Studio | 1 BR | 2 BR | 3 BR | 4 BR |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 33441 | $1,530 | $1,660 | $2,060 | $2,840 | $3,450 |
| 33442 | $1,910 | $2,090 | $2,570 | $3,540 | $4,200 |
Home-price appreciation (FHFA)
The FHFA House Price Index for the Fort Lauderdale–Pompano Beach–Sunrise, FL (FHFA metro division) shows how Broward County prices have moved — including through the cycle, which is the part most “appreciation” claims skip:
- +57.7%5-year (9.5%/yr)
- +121.5%10-year (8.3%/yr)
- +72.1%20-year (2.8%/yr)
For context, the same index fell about 48% from its 2006 peak to its post-crisis trough around 2011, and now sits roughly 67.5% above that prior peak. Prices here are cyclical — underwrite on current cash flow, not on a straight line.
Investing in Deerfield Beach: what to know
Beach and Intracoastal condos east; west, sprawling 55+ condo communities (such as Century Village) define much of the inland stock.
The 55+ stock is among the most affordable entry in the area but comes with age restrictions and reserve risk; beachside chases seasonal demand.
Large aging 55+ condo communities make reserves, assessments and age/leasing restrictions the central underwriting question here.
None of the above uses MLS listing data — it's government benchmarks plus general market knowledge. To analyze actual Deerfield Beach listings with calibrated rent, valuation and condo-document review, that happens inside ReSharpe (for licensed agents), with the approach explained on the methodology page.
