Meet a Florida-licensed mental health professional by phone or video. If you're approved, your signed ESA letter arrives in 10-15 minutes.
Hialeah is a dense, majority Cuban-American city in Miami-Dade County, where a county human rights ordinance prohibits housing discrimination.
A letter from a Florida-licensed mental health professional is the documentation behind a reasonable accommodation request — the step that lets a renter ask to set aside a no-pet rule, pet rent and pet deposits.
With roughly 231,000 residents, Hialeah in Miami-Dade County is Florida’s eighth-largest city. Renters across Palm Avenue, Hialeah Park area, Hialeah Gardens, Miami Lakes and Miami Springs rely on the same fair housing protections, whatever the building or landlord.
Florida's 2020 law (SB 1084) sets rules for emotional support animals in housing: a landlord may ask for reliable information only when a disability or need is not apparent, may not ask for a diagnosis or medical records, and must accept documentation from a practitioner with personal knowledge of the disability, while an online registration or certificate alone is not enough. Housing discrimination complaints can be filed with the Florida Commission on Human Relations or with HUD. For the details, read our Florida ESA law guide.

Yes. What matters is a real evaluation by a professional licensed in Florida, not whether the appointment happened in person or by video.
Usually not. A landlord has to consider a reasonable accommodation request backed by a valid letter and can deny it only on limited grounds, such as a direct threat or undue burden. Small owner-occupied buildings may be exempt.

Yes. Your letter should come from someone holding an active Florida license — that’s the first thing a Hialeah landlord is likely to verify.
It does. Association rules in Hialeah fall under the same fair housing law as a landlord’s pet policy.
