Zoning & Permits in Miami
Miami-Dade County zoning determines what you can build and where. Our builder partners know local permitting requirements and factor county rules into every quote.
| Zoning Factor | Miami-Dade County Rule |
|---|---|
| HVHZ designation | Miami-Dade County is in Florida’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone. All construction — foundation or ADU — must use impact-rated windows, doors, and roofing. Adds $5,000–$15,000 to build cost but required for permits. |
| ADU rules | Miami-Dade allows ADUs (accessory dwelling units) on SF lots. Foundation tiny homes qualify as ADUs when meeting IRC minimums (200 sq ft, 6’4” ceiling) and HVHZ material requirements. File with Miami-Dade Building Department. |
| THOW placement | THOWs classified as RVs in Miami-Dade — must be in a licensed RV park or manufactured home community. Cannot place on a standard residential lot as a primary dwelling. Miami-area RV parks include several options in Homestead and Opa-locka. |
Miami Tiny Home Builder FAQ
Can I build an ADU in Miami?
Yes — Miami-Dade allows ADUs on SF lots. All ADU construction must meet HVHZ (High Velocity Hurricane Zone) requirements: impact-rated windows and doors, reinforced roofing, and engineered framing. Foundation tiny homes built to HVHZ specs qualify for ADU permits. File with Miami-Dade Building Department. Our builder partners are HVHZ-experienced and include the upgraded material costs in their quotes.
Do tiny homes need hurricane-rated construction in Miami?
Yes — mandatory. Miami-Dade County is in Florida’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone. Every permitted build — tiny home, ADU, or park model placement — must use impact-rated windows, doors, and roofing. This typically adds $5,000–$15,000 to build costs but is non-negotiable for permit approval. RVIA-certified THOWs and park models from our network builders are already engineered for Florida wind loads.
What does a tiny home cost in Miami?
Miami’s HVHZ requirements add a premium: ADU builds typically run $140,000–$220,000+ depending on size and finishes. THOW delivery starts around $60,000–$90,000 for a mid-range model. Park model placement in a licensed Miami-area community runs $50,000–$120,000 for the unit plus community lot rent of approximately $700–$1,100/month in Miami-Dade. Miami’s high ADU rental demand makes the ROI on ADU builds stronger here than most Florida markets.
Where can I place a THOW near Miami?
THOW placement in Miami-Dade requires a licensed RV park or manufactured home community. Options include parks in Homestead, Opa-locka, and north Miami-Dade. Many Miami-area buyers also look at Broward County (Fort Lauderdale) and Palm Beach County markets, which have more RV park inventory. For buyers wanting a park model ADU on their existing lot, HB 2579 allows RVIA-certified park models as ADUs when placed on a foundation meeting HVHZ and setback requirements.
