Foreclosures & Distressed
Foreclosures and other distressed homes in 33068, from bank-owned (REO) listings to short sales and auctions, sometimes sell below comparable market value because the seller is motivated. They almost always sell as-is, though, so weigh the price against the cost of repairs and a possibly slower closing. Because Broward County processes foreclosures judicially, confirm the title and any outstanding liens before committing.

Buying in 33068
The buying process in 33068 is the one used across Broward County. Getting a mortgage pre-approval first tells you your real budget and lets you move quickly when the right home comes up. Property taxes factor into the monthly payment: the median annual property tax in Broward County is about $3,610. Florida's homestead exemption lowers the taxable value of a primary residence, and the Save Our Homes cap limits how fast that assessed value can rise from year to year. Budget for homeowners insurance as well. Rates in Florida reflect wind and flood exposure, so gather quotes early and check whether a specific address sits in a FEMA flood zone. Once you are under contract, plan for a home inspection and, if you are financing, a lender appraisal, both of which fall inside the inspection period. Most Florida purchases close within 30 to 45 days of an accepted offer. Working with an agent who knows Margate means you see new listings in 33068 the day they reach the market.
Selling in 33068
Selling a home in 33068 starts with pricing it correctly for current conditions. List prices in the 33068 area currently center around $340,000, which is a starting reference for where a comparable home might be positioned. Homes that are decluttered, professionally photographed, and priced to recent comparable sales tend to draw the most interest in the first two weeks, when a listing is newest and gets the most views. Florida sellers usually pay the documentary stamp tax on the deed, currently $0.70 per $100 of the sale price in most counties, along with prorated property taxes and, by local custom in many areas, the owner's title insurance policy. Agent commission is negotiable and is agreed to up front in the listing agreement. We provide a no-obligation home valuation for Margate owners, so you can see what your property could sell for before you commit to listing.
