My Brickell landlord was charging $396 pet deposit and $88/month pet rent. My ESA letter from a licensed FL clinician eliminated both charges on the spot.

Miami Rental Market: What ESA Tenants Need to Know
Brickell, Wynwood, and Miami Beach have some of the highest pet deposit requirements in Florida, often $500–$1,000 upfront plus monthly charges - all of which must be waived for ESA tenants under the FHA and Florida's Fair Housing Act. Miami's large condo market means many renters interact with condo association boards rather than individual landlords; these boards must comply with federal FHA accommodation requirements despite internal no-pet rules, and board-level ESA denials can be challenged with the Florida Commission on Human Relations. Miami's bilingual renter community means ESA letters and accommodation requests may need to be presented clearly in writing - our letters are legally worded to be clear to all housing providers.

What Customers Say
I needed documentation fast. The FL-licensed clinician had my letter ready in under 24 hours and my Miami landlord accepted it first submission - no back and forth.
I live in Wynwood and my building has a strict no-pets policy. My ESA letter cited the Fair Housing Act directly. My landlord was legally obligated to honor it - and did.

What Your ESA Letter Protects in Miami
A valid ESA letter from a licensed Florida clinician gives you specific, enforceable housing rights under the Fair Housing Act - regardless of what a lease or building rules say about pets.
No-Pet Policies Don't Apply
Miami landlords cannot enforce no-pet policies against your ESA. An emotional support animal is a disability accommodation - not a pet - under federal law.
No Pet Deposits or Fees
Landlords in Miami cannot charge pet deposits, monthly pet rent, or one-time pet fees for your ESA. You remain responsible for actual property damage via your security deposit.
No Breed Restrictions
Breed bans and weight limits are pet policies. They do not apply to emotional support animals. Miami landlords cannot deny your ESA based on breed or size alone.
Right to a Written Response
Your Miami landlord must respond to your accommodation request within a reasonable time. HUD guidance suggests 10 business days. Failure to respond may constitute a denial you can report.
What You Receive
What a Valid FL ESA Letter Must Include
Miami landlords are experienced with ESA accommodation requests. A letter missing any of the following may be rejected.
FL-Licensed Clinician Signature
Must be signed by a clinician with an active Florida state license - out-of-state letters can be challenged.
License Number & State
Allows your Miami landlord to independently verify the clinician through the Florida licensing board.
Disability Statement & Nexus
Must confirm a mental health disability and that your ESA provides therapeutic benefit related to that disability.
Current Date (Within 12 Months)
Most Miami landlords require a letter dated within the past year. Outdated letters will be returned for renewal.
Official Letterhead
On the clinician's professional letterhead with original signature. Template letters are a red flag property managers recognize.
