As of September 7, 2026, the median monthly homeowners association fee across the 41 Plantation townhouses and villas for sale is $332; half of them fall between $260 and $475 a month, and 24.4% ask $500 or more. Plantation ranks 17 of 34 South Florida cities by median HOA fee.

For buyers and sellers: Budget $332/mo as the middle of the Plantation townhouse and villa market, or about $0.22 per square foot per month. An HOA fee well under $260 usually means the owner carries roof, exterior and insurance alone; one over $475 deserves a look at what it covers (insurance is included in the fee on 20.5% of Plantation listings). A townhouse or villa organized as a condominium is not on this page; it is in the Condo Fee Index.
The story for media: "The median townhouse or villa listed for sale in Plantation carries a monthly homeowners association fee of $332, 11% above the five-county South Florida median of $300, according to PBP Real Estate's daily analysis of BeachesMLS listing data as of September 7, 2026."
Daily tracking of Plantation HOA fees began September 7, 2026; sparklines fill in from the second day and show the trailing 90 days. Every fee is the monthly equivalent of what the listing office entered; quarterly and annual fees are divided accordingly and master plus sub-association layers are summed. The top and bottom 1% per city (2 listings today) are trimmed as likely data-entry errors.
Townhouse and villa buyers ask about the HOA fee right after the price, and the answer decides whether the roof, the exterior paint, the lawn and the insurance are the association's problem or theirs. This page reads it every morning for Plantation: what the typical listing asks, how the fees spread, how the community's age and price move them, what the fee covers, and how often the remarks warn of a special assessment or a mandatory club membership on top.

Read the shape, not only the middle. A wide spread means Plantation has more than one townhouse market: 0% of listings ask under $200 a month, typically communities where the owner maintains the exterior, and 24.4% ask $500 or more, typically gated or club communities where the fee carries roofs, insurance and amenities. The median unit (1,395 sq ft, asking $410K) pays about 0.9% of its asking price a year in fees.

Region-wide, townhouses and villas built since 2005 ask a median $250 a month against $390 for communities from before 1995; Plantation lacks 10 listings in one of those groups today, so no local comparison is drawn. Median year built among Plantation townhouses and villas for sale: 1989.

Fees rise with price but not in proportion. The share-of-price column is the carrying cost a buyer pays the association each year relative to the asking price, and it is the fairest way to compare a $300,000 villa with a $1.5 million townhouse.
What does the fee cover in Plantation? Common areas on 79.5% of listings, building insurance on 20.5%

Two fees of $332 are not the same fee if one includes the roof, exterior maintenance, insurance and a reserve contribution and the other buys lawn service and a gate. Compare coverage first, dollars second. Where the MLS record leaves the field blank the listing is simply not counted here.

Recurring fees are only part of the cost of ownership. The items below are never folded into the fee figures above. They are counted from the public listing remarks (agent-written, unverified) and from the MLS land-lease field, so read them as how often the subject comes up, not as a verified fact about any building.

What to do with this
Buyers
- Use $332 a month, or $0.22 per square foot, as the Plantation midpoint; ask why a home sits far outside $260 to $475.
- Ask what the fee covers before you compare dollars: roof, exterior, lawn, insurance, gate. Then ask for the current budget and reserve schedule. 0% of Plantation listings bring up a special assessment on their own.
- Check the tax legal description: a townhouse organized as a condominium carries condominium rules, insurance and reserve requirements, whatever the listing calls it.
- If the community has a master association, confirm both layers are in the quoted fee; 0% of Plantation listings show two.
Sellers
- State the fee, its billing cycle and what it covers in the listing; buyers compare against this page and against 41 other Plantation townhouses and villas.
- If an assessment is paid or none is pending, say so plainly; 0% of your competition already does.
- A fee above $475 is not a defect if the coverage justifies it; list the coverage.
Media writers
- Angle: Plantation HOA fees on townhouses and villas run 11% above the five-county median ($332 vs $300); 24.4% of listings ask $500 or more.

Questions people actually ask about Plantation HOA fees
What is the average HOA fee in Plantation?
We report the median, not the average, because a handful of gated golf communities would drag an average upward. As of September 7, 2026, the median monthly-equivalent HOA fee across 41 Plantation townhouses and villas for sale is $332. The middle half runs $260 to $475; 0% ask under $200 and 24.4% ask $500 or more. Per square foot the median is $0.22 a month.
Why are townhouses and villas reported together, and where are the condo townhouses?
Because they are the same property type. A townhouse is the multi-level version (two or three stories) and a villa the single-level version of an attached home on its own platted lot; the association model, the fee structure and what the fee covers are the same. In Plantation today 90.2% of the listings on this page are entered as townhouses and 9.8% as villas (villa median $402, townhouse median $332, shown for context only). A townhouse or villa whose tax legal description records a condominium belongs to a condominium association, not an HOA, and is reported in the Plantation Condo Fee Index instead, whatever the listing agent selected as the property type.
How do we know a Plantation listing is an HOA and not a condominium?
From the tax legal description carried in each MLS record, never from the property type the agent chose. A legal that records a lot, block, plat or PUD is a platted homeowners association parcel; a legal that records a condominium is a condominium. In Plantation today 90.2% of the listings on this page carry a platted-lot legal and 9.8% carry a legal that does not state a regime either way (those keep their MLS type and are marked "regime not recorded" on the community pages).
Why are some Plantation HOA fees quoted quarterly?
Associations bill on different cycles. In Plantation today 95.1% of listings quote a monthly fee and 4.9% quote quarterly. Every figure on this page is converted to a monthly equivalent (a $900 quarterly fee counts as $300 a month) so listings can be compared. Fees with no billing cycle stated in the MLS are left out rather than guessed.
Do Plantation townhouses have more than one association fee?
Some do. In master-planned communities the MLS carries a master association fee and a sub-association or neighborhood fee. 0% of Plantation listings show a second layer; where present, the median master portion is — a month and the combined total —. This page always sums the layers into the total and reports the second layer separately.
Are special assessments and club memberships included in these Plantation HOA figures?
No. A special assessment is a one-time or time-limited charge on top of the regular fee, and a mandatory club or equity membership is a separate obligation altogether. This page reports both as shares of listings whose public remarks mention them: 0% of Plantation listings mention a special assessment and 0% describe a required membership. Remarks are agent-written and not verified, so treat these as signals to ask about, not a fact about any one community.
What does a Plantation HOA fee usually cover?
Of Plantation listings that state what the fee includes (39), the most common items are common areas (79.5%), grounds (64.1%), pool (61.5%), roof (46.2%), structure maintenance (35.9%), trash (20.5%). Insurance is listed as included on 20.5% and a reserve fund contribution on 17.9%. The items that most change what a townhouse fee is worth are roof, exterior and structure maintenance and insurance: a low fee that leaves them to the owner is not a cheaper fee.
Do newer Plantation townhouses ask higher HOA fees than older ones?
Plantation does not have enough listings in both age groups today for a like-for-like comparison (needs 10 or more in each). Region-wide, townhouses and villas built since 2005 ask a median $250 a month against $390 for communities from before 1995.
Which Plantation communities have the lowest and highest HOA fees?
Too few Plantation communities have 10 or more townhouses or villas for sale today to rank them; the table on this page shows what is available, with small rows marked anecdotal.
How often is the Plantation HOA fee index updated?
Every morning. The figures come from PBP Real Estate's own MLS data feed and are rebuilt daily at about 5:00 AM Eastern; this version is as of September 7, 2026. Fees are as entered by each listing office, converted to a monthly equivalent, and trimmed of the top and bottom 1% per city to remove data-entry errors (2 of 43 listings today). This is a market read, not a statement about any one association's fee.
For sellers
Pricing a home correctly is a skill. It starts with data most agents and consumers never see.
32.6% of the townhouses and villas for sale in Plantation have already had to cut, a median $15,000, and buyers compare your fee against 41 other listings before they book a showing.
This page is built from every Plantation listing in BeachesMLS and refreshed each morning. Gia Freer, Broker of Record, turns that same data into one written pricing opinion for your townhouse or villa: the sales, cuts, fees and days on market it actually competes with, with the reasoning, before it goes live.
No website estimate, no automated number: a comparative market analysis done by hand, within one business day.

Price my townhouse or villa correctlyHow these figures are built
Method: medians and percentiles over active townhouse and villa listings in Plantation permitted for internet display in PBP Real Estate's BeachesMLS data feed, snapshotted daily. Fees are as entered by each listing office and converted to a monthly equivalent by the stated billing frequency (quarterly divided by three, semi-annual by six, annual by twelve); listings with a fee but no stated frequency are excluded (0 today). Where the MLS carries a second association fee, the two layers are summed and the second layer is reported separately.
Per city, listings below the 1st or above the 99th percentile of monthly fee are trimmed as likely data-entry errors (2 today). Special assessment, membership, capital contribution and reserve shares are keyword classifications of agent-written public remarks and are not verified; the land-lease share also uses the MLS land-lease field. Community names are normalized from free-text subdivision fields.
Townhouses and villas are one property type (multi-level and single-level) and are reported together; the villa share is shown for context. A listing appears here only when its tax legal description does not record a condominium: platted-lot legals (lot, block, plat, PUD) are homeowners association parcels, and legals that state no regime keep the MLS type and are marked as not recorded. Townhouses and villas whose legal records a condominium are reported in the Condo Fee Index, whatever property type the listing agent selected. Nothing here is an opinion of value about any property or a statement about any specific association's finances. The fees displayed are only as accurate as the brokerage that provided them in its individual listings through the multiple listing service. Information is deemed to be reliable but not guaranteed.
