Rent control rules in Hialeah, FL β also known as rent stabilization or rent cap ordinances β limit annual rent increases and protect tenants from displacement.
Hialeah has no rent control ordinance. Florida preempts all local rent control under Fla. Stat. Sec. 125.0103, and the 2023 Live Local Act (SB 102) eliminated the housing-emergency exception. HB 1417 (Fla. Stat. Sec. 166.0444) further preempted local tenant-protection ordinances, invalidating most provisions of the Miami-Dade County Tenant's Bill of Rights that exceeded state law. Hialeah cannot adopt rent stabilization or local caps on rent increases.
