About this guide

Broward County, Florida, has about 2.0 million residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate). The title to a parcel in Broward County is in the deed records of the Clerk of Court and its taxable value is set by the Property Appraiser; what is built on it is a matter for the city or the county. This guide says who keeps each record and where the page for each office is.

This guide covers deeds, assessed values, directory links, city permits, evictions and court cases, records requests and common questions.
