Miami-Dade County Ordinance No. 08-133 applies to all residential properties which are acquired through a Certificate of Title (foreclosures and judgments). Residential properties affected include single-family homes, condominiums, townhouses and duplexes. The Ordinance requires the holder of a certificate of title on a foreclosed property to obtain a Certificate of Use (CU) from the Zoning Department before the property can be sold again. To obtain a CU, the property must be inspected by a licensed engineer and a report must be reviewed by the building department and filed in the public records. Review fees and recording fees must be paid during the process. The entire process takes about 5 business days.
