This guide covers average rents, best rental markets, and how to navigate Florida rental process.
Florida has over 2.5 million rental housing units — the third largest rental market in the country after California and Texas. Single-family homes account for a significant share of Florida rentals, with a large inventory of investor-owned houses available for long-term lease across the state.
Average single-family home rents in Florida have risen significantly since 2021 but growth has moderated. Statewide averages mask enormous variation: a 3-bedroom home rents for $1,200/month in Avon Park and $4,500/month in Dr. Phillips, Orlando — both in Florida, both 3-bedroom homes. Understanding your target market is the essential first step to any Florida rental search.
Prepare Your Application Package: Florida landlords move quickly on good applications. Before you tour a single property, prepare: credit report (know your score), 3 months of pay stubs or 2 years tax returns if self-employed, 2 forms of government ID, previous landlord contact information, and a bank statement showing funds for first month, last month, and security deposit.
Work with an Agent: BKRS agents have access to rental listings before they are publicly posted on Zillow and Apartments.com. Landlords pay agent fees on most Florida rentals — so representation costs you nothing. This advance access gives you the best chance of seeing quality homes before they are leased to the first applicants.
