Cooper City rentals: the typical listing asks $3,813/mo, 36% above the South Florida median
As of September 7, 2026, the median asking rent across the 38 Cooper City homes and condominiums listed for lease is $3,813 a month; half ask between $3,000 and $4,300, the median listing sits 14.5 days on the market, and 0% are offered furnished. Cooper City ranks 26 of 93 South Florida cities by median asking rent.
Rents shown are asking rents as entered by the listing office in the multiple listing service, not what a landlord will accept. Information is deemed to be reliable but not guaranteed.

For renters and owners: Budget $3,813/mo as the middle of the Cooper City market, or about $2.30 per square foot per month. If you need a furnished winter stay, expect to pay more and to start earlier: 13% of Cooper City listings come available between October and December, and the association's minimum term - not the landlord - usually decides whether a three-month stay is even possible.
The story for media: "The median Cooper City residential lease listing asks $3,813 a month, 36% above the five-county South Florida median of $2,800, with 188 leases closed in the twelve months to the prior full month at a median of $4,000, according to PBP Real Estate's daily analysis of BeachesMLS lease data as of September 7, 2026."
Every figure is the asking rent entered by the listing office, monthly. Listings quoted by the week or night, or as a one-time amount, are left out of the rent statistics (1 in Cooper City today) rather than converted. The top and bottom 1% per city (0 listings today) are trimmed as likely data-entry errors. 11 Cooper City lease listings are under contract or pending right now and are not counted in the asking-rent figures.
South Florida runs two rental markets at once. One is the annual lease that a working household signs for twelve months. The other is the winter season - November into late April or early May - when furnished units let for a few months at a time and the rules, not the asking rent, decide who can actually stay: an owner picks the tenant, and in a condominium the association has the final word on whether that tenant may occupy the unit. This page reads both for Cooper City every morning from our own multiple listing service feed.

The shape matters more than the middle. A wide spread means Cooper City serves more than one renter: 8% of listings ask under $2,000 a month and 3% ask $10,000 or more, which is usually furnished season inventory rather than year-round housing.
What does each size cost in Cooper City?
Cooper City does not have ten or more listings in at least two size groups today, so no size comparison is drawn. Region-wide the two-bedroom median is $2,595 a month.
| Property type | Listings | Median asking rent |
|---|---|---|
| House | 18 | $4,300 |
| Townhouse | 16 | $3,200 |
| Condominium | 2 | too few |
| Efficiency or studio | 1 | too few |
| Apartment | 1 | too few |

How much more does a furnished Cooper City rental cost?
Cooper City lacks ten furnished and ten unfurnished two-bedroom condominium listings today, so no like-for-like premium is published. Across all Cooper City listings the furnished median is — and the unfurnished median $3,725; that gap partly reflects mix, because furnished inventory skews to seasonal and higher-end buildings.
| Offered | Listings | Median asking rent |

| Furnished | 0 | too few |

The like-for-like rows hold bedroom count and property type constant so the premium is not just a size or building-class difference.

Rent my propertyI am looking to rent instead
Median Cooper City lease takes 29.5 days from listing to closing, so a November arrival is priced and listed in early autumn. We write annual leases up to twelve months; a longer term is drafted by an attorney.
When does Cooper City season inventory come available?
13% of Cooper City listings with a stated availability date come available between October and December, and 11% between November and May. Season stock is listed and taken in the autumn, which is why a January arrival booked in December means choosing from what is left. Across the five counties, closed lease volume runs highest from June through October and thins from January onward - the winter contracts are largely signed before the season starts.
We do not publish a month-by-month lease chart yet. Two months in the trailing twelve (April and May 2026) report far fewer closed leases than the surrounding months across the whole feed, which looks like a reporting artifact rather than a market move, and we will not chart a series we cannot explain. The twelve-month totals and medians on this page are unaffected in direction but are noted here for transparency.
What minimum lease term applies in Cooper City?
Either the association or the owner sets it, and four months is a common minimum in South Florida condominiums. Associations set a minimum in their governing documents, and an owner may insist on a longer term than the documents require, so both have to be confirmed. The multiple listing service has no reliable minimum-term field, so we read the listing remarks and report exactly what they say - never as a rule.
Of the 2 Cooper City listings that state a minimum term at all, this is the term they state
Shorter is easier to fill in winter and harder to find: the shorter the minimum a building allows, the more of the season market it can serve. A four-month minimum rules out a renter who wants January to March.
Source: BeachesMLS residential lease listings permitted for internet display, via PBP Real Estate's brokerage feed. Asking rents as entered by the listing office, monthly; deemed reliable but not guaranteed. As of Sep 7, 2026. These are shares of listings whose agent-written remarks mention a term, not verified rules. A minimum can come from the association or from the owner, and either can be longer than the other. The multiple listing service has no reliable minimum-lease-term field, so always confirm the minimum with the association or its management company and with the owner before you plan a stay.
Who has the final word on a condominium rental
The owner chooses the tenant; in a condominium the association decides whether that tenant may occupy the unit. A prospective tenant applies to the association, and the association's approval - not the signed lease - is what permits occupancy. That applies to every rental in an association that requires it, seasonal or annual. Expect a written application, a fee, sometimes an interview, and a decision that can take two to four weeks. Plan your arrival date around that step, and never give notice or book travel on the strength of an accepted offer alone. We start the application the day the owner accepts, and we tell you the building's rules and timeline before you apply.
If your stay is shorter than the minimum
Say so at the start and we will save you the search. If you need six weeks in Cooper City and the buildings you like require four months, a hotel or a licensed short-term host is the better option, and we will tell you that plainly rather than walk you through applications that cannot be approved. We are paid only when we write a lease - annual or seasonal - so there is no incentive to keep you looking at units that do not fit your dates.
How long a lease we can write
Up to twelve months. Florida real estate licensees prepare annual residential leases of twelve months or less; a longer term is drafted by an attorney, and we will refer you rather than improvise. Every seasonal lease still has to clear the association's minimum term and its approval process, which is the first thing we check for you.

What actually leased in Cooper City over the last twelve months?
188 Cooper City leases closed in the twelve months to the prior full month, at a median rent of $4,000 a month and a median 29.5 days on the market. Today's asking median of $3,813 sits 5% below that closed median, which is the gap between what owners ask and what the market signed. Closed rents are the most honest number on this page: they are what tenants actually agreed to pay.
Closed figures cover leases closed between 2025-08-01 and 2026-09-01 (twelve full months ending the prior full month, because lease closings are reported late).

What to do with this
Renters
- Use $3,813 a month as the Cooper City midpoint and treat anything under $3,000 as a listing to inspect carefully.
- Give us your dates first. The association's minimum term rules out more units than price does, and we check it before you apply.
- For a winter stay, start in September or October: 13% of Cooper City availability dates land in the October to December window.
Owners
- An annual lease covers the carry while a sale waits; a furnished season can ask more per month.
- State the minimum term, what is included and the pet rule in the listing. 5% of your Cooper City competition states a minimum; the ones that do not lose applications to questions.
- Thinking about selling instead of leasing? Start with what a website will never know about your home and we will show you both numbers before you choose.
Media writers
- Angle: Cooper City asking rents run 36% above the five-county median ($3,813 vs $2,800); 0% of listings are furnished.

Questions people actually ask about renting in Cooper City
How much is rent in Cooper City?
The median asking rent across the 38 Cooper City listings for lease today is $3,813 a month. Half ask between $3,000 and $4,300; 8% ask under $2,000 and 3% ask $10,000 or more. Per square foot the median is $2.30 a month. We report the median, not the average, because a handful of oceanfront rentals would drag an average upward. Asking rent is not closing rent: leases actually closed in Cooper City over the last twelve months ran a median of $4,000 a month, 5% above today's asking median.
Can I rent in Cooper City for three months in the winter?
Sometimes, and either the association or the owner decides. Many South Florida condominium and homeowner associations set a minimum lease term, and four months is common; some allow three, some require six or twelve, and some cap how many times a unit may be leased in a year. The multiple listing service has no reliable minimum-term field, so we report what listings say: 5% of Cooper City listings state a minimum of some length, 0% mention three months, 0% mention four, 0% mention six and 0% describe the unit as a seasonal or snowbird rental. Confirm the minimum with the association before you plan travel. If your stay is shorter than the minimum, a hotel or a licensed short-term host is the better option - we will tell you so plainly.
Who approves a Cooper City condominium rental, the owner or the association?
Both, in that order. The owner chooses the tenant and signs the lease, and in a condominium or homeowner association the association gives the final approval for that tenant to occupy the unit - the lease alone does not permit occupancy. The prospective tenant applies to the association, usually with a written application, a fee and sometimes an interview, and a decision can take two to four weeks. This applies to seasonal and annual rentals alike wherever the association requires approval. 13% of Cooper City lease listings mention association, board or homeowner-association approval in their remarks, and the true share is higher because most listings do not mention the rule at all. Plan your arrival around that step: an accepted offer is not an approval, so do not give notice or book travel until the association has decided.
How much more does a furnished rental cost in Cooper City?
Cooper City does not have ten furnished and ten unfurnished two-bedroom condominium listings today, so no like-for-like premium is published here. Across all Cooper City listings the furnished median is — (0 listings) and the unfurnished median $3,725 (35). Region-wide, furnished two-bedroom condominiums ask 96% more than unfurnished ones.
When should I start looking for a Cooper City seasonal rental?
Early autumn. Season inventory is listed and taken well before the season starts: 13% of Cooper City listings with an availability date come available between October and December, and 11% between November and May. The median Cooper City listing has been on the market 14.5 days, and leases that closed took a median 29.5 days. Waiting until December to book a January arrival means competing for what is left rather than choosing.
How long a lease can PBP write in Cooper City?
Up to twelve months. Florida real estate licensees may prepare an annual residential lease of twelve months or less; a longer term has to be drafted by an attorney, and we will refer you to one rather than improvise. Seasonal leases are shorter by nature and still have to satisfy the association's minimum term and approval process, which is why we confirm those rules before you sign anything. 13% of Cooper City listings mention association, board or homeowner-association approval of the tenant in their remarks.
Are pets allowed in Cooper City rentals?
On some. 76% of Cooper City lease listings record pets as allowed, sometimes with restrictions on weight, breed or number, and 3% state no pets in their remarks. Pet rules usually come from the association rather than the owner, and a pet deposit or non-refundable pet fee is common. Send us the pet's weight and breed with your search and we will filter for units where the rule actually fits.
How often is this Cooper City rental data updated?
Every morning. The figures come from PBP Real Estate's own BeachesMLS data feed, restricted to residential lease listings permitted for internet display, and are rebuilt daily; this version is as of September 7, 2026. Asking rents are as entered by each listing office; listings quoted weekly, nightly or as a one-time amount are excluded from the rent statistics (1 in Cooper City today), and the top and bottom 1% per city are trimmed as likely data-entry errors (0 today). Nothing here is an opinion of value on a specific property.
Leasing a unit out in Cooper City, or renting in Cooper City?
Two different questions, two different answers. Pick your side.
Tell us your dates and we will send the Cooper City rentals that actually fit
Most rental searches fail on a rule, not a price: a four-month minimum set by the association or the owner, a board approval that takes three weeks, a pet policy that stops at 20 pounds. Send your dates, budget and must-haves and Gia Freer's team confirms those rules first, then sends the shortlist that can actually be approved - annual or seasonal. If your stay is shorter than the minimum, we will say so and point you to a hotel or short-term host instead.
- Send your dates, budget, size and pets.
- We confirm the minimum term and approval process for the buildings that fit.
- You see a shortlist you can actually lease, with the rent, the term and the rules stated.
What would your Cooper City unit lease for, annual or season?
Send the address and Gia works out two numbers from the 38 Cooper City listings competing with you and the leases that actually closed: what an annual lease should ask, and what a furnished season from November through May should ask. She also tells you which of the two nets you more once the vacant months are counted. No automated estimate, and no listing agreement to sign to get the number.
- Send the address, bedrooms, whether it is furnished and when it is available.
- Gia prices it against live Cooper City competition and closed leases, annual and seasonal.
- You get both numbers in writing within one business day, with the comparable listings shown.

Method: medians and percentiles over residential lease listings in Cooper City permitted for internet display in PBP Real Estate's BeachesMLS data feed, snapshotted daily. Asking rent is the monthly rent as entered by the listing office. Listings quoted by the week, by the night or as a one-time amount are excluded from every rent statistic rather than converted (1 in Cooper City today); listings whose stated frequency is annual carry a monthly amount in this feed and are included. Per city, listings below the 1st or above the 99th percentile of asking rent are trimmed as likely data-entry errors (0 today).
Closed figures cover leases closed in the twelve full months ending the prior full month, because lease closings are reported late. Minimum-term, association-approval and pet shares are keyword classifications of agent-written public remarks; they are signals to ask about, never verified association or owner rules, and no minimum term on this page should be relied on without confirming it with the association and the owner. Community names are normalized from free-text subdivision fields and legal plat names are suppressed.
Lease listings are never blended with listings for sale, and no figure here is an opinion of value on any property. Nothing on this page is legal or tax advice. Rents shown are asking rents as entered by the listing office in the multiple listing service, not what a landlord will accept. Information is deemed to be reliable but not guaranteed.
