How Much Does Deed Tax Take From a Fort Lauderdale Sale?
The Florida Department of Revenue sets the documentary stamp tax on a deed at 70 cents per $100 of the price outside Miami-Dade County. Fort Lauderdale is in Broward County, so this rate applies.
| Sale price | Florida deed tax |
|---|---|
| $300,000 | $2,100 |
| $400,000 | $2,800 |
| $486,700 | $3,407 |
| $600,000 | $4,200 |
Figures from the Florida Department of Revenue rate. Who pays it is set in your sales contract. Commissions and closing costs are not set by law, so use the numbers in your own listing agreement and closing statement.

What is a home sale net proceeds calculator?
A home sale net proceeds calculator shows the money left after you sell and pay the costs of selling: mortgage payoff, agent commission, closing costs, Florida deed tax, repairs and monthly holding costs.
How is the Florida deed tax worked out when I sell?
The Florida Department of Revenue sets the documentary stamp tax on a deed at 70 cents per $100 of the sale price outside Miami-Dade County. A $486,700 Fort Lauderdale sale owes about $3,407.
What seller closing costs should I expect in Fort Lauderdale?
Seller closing costs in Fort Lauderdale can include the Florida deed tax, title charges, recording fees, prorated property taxes and an HOA estoppel fee. Ask your title company or attorney for your own numbers.
Are real estate commissions set by law in Florida?
No. Florida law does not set real estate commissions, and you can negotiate the rate with the agent you hire. Type the total rate from your listing agreement into the calculator, including any buyer agent amount.
Why does the calculator count months of holding costs?
While a Broward County house is listed, you keep paying the mortgage, property taxes, homeowners insurance, HOA dues, utilities and upkeep. The calculator multiplies your monthly holding cost by the months until closing.
Does the result tell me what my Fort Lauderdale house is worth?
No. The result is for illustration only. It is not an appraisal, an estimate of value or an offer. The sale price you type in is your own guess, so the result follows your numbers.
What is the 70% rule for cash home buyers?
The 70% rule says a cash buyer pays no more than 70% of the after-repair value minus repairs. Many investors use it, BiggerPockets explains it, and our calculator uses it for illustration only.
Does Palmtree Cash Home Buyers pay my closing costs?
No. Palmtree Cash Home Buyers does not pay seller closing costs. Your title company lists every cost on your closing statement, so ask for it and type those numbers into the calculator.
