Prince George Condominium Hallandale Beach: What to Know Before You Buy at 1865 S Ocean Dr

Key takeaway: Prince George is a 20-story, 249-unit condominium at 1865 South Ocean Drive, on the Intracoastal side of A1A, built in the early 1970s. We couldn't find its budget, reserve study or inspection reports published anywhere, so the listing is the least reliable thing you'll read about it. Make your offer contingent on the resale documents Florida law entitles you to, and judge the unit by them.

Who this guide is for: You're looking at a Prince George unit as a lower-priced way onto the beach strip and need to know what the building's age, side of A1A and missing public records mean for your costs and your loan.

Why Prince George Condominium Buyers Start with the Documents

Next door, Plaza Towers North posts its 2026 budget and reserve study on its website, so a buyer can see the dues, insurance and reserve gap before calling anyone. We couldn't find anything comparable for Prince George: no association website, budget, SIRS or inspection summary. What's online comes from brokers and directories, which disagree on the year it was built.

You can still buy well here. Write your contract so the documents arrive before your deposit is at risk, and read them against the questions below.

Contract timing for a Prince George offer

On a resale, Florida law gives you seven days, excluding weekends and holidays, after you receive the disclosure documents to cancel. Ask the seller to deliver them on the day the contract is signed, and line up your inspection period and the lender's condo questionnaire so all three land inside the same window.

The Prince George Condominium at 1865 S Ocean Dr

Prince George on the Intracoastal side

On this stretch of South Ocean Drive, odd-numbered addresses sit on the west side of A1A, toward the Intracoastal, and even numbers on the ocean side. At 1865, Prince George is on the west side, across the road from the ocean-front towers on our South Ocean Drive building guide. You cross A1A to reach the sand.

Size and age of the Prince George tower

Directory and broker records describe 20 floors and 249 units. They date it to 1972, while some listings say 1974. Either way it's past Broward's 25-year inspection and the state's 30-year milestone, and well into its second decade of 10-year cycles.

Units and layouts at Prince George

We couldn't verify the mix of layouts or sizes from a primary source. Use the floor plan and square footage on the deed or the property appraiser's record, not the listing, when you compare price per square foot. The Broward County Property Appraiser's search shows each unit's recorded square footage and its past sale prices, which is the quickest way to build your own list of comparable sales in the building.

Prince George Condominium Inspections and Reserves

Broward safety inspections at a 1970s tower

Broward's building safety program requires a structural and electrical inspection at 25 years and every 10 years after, and it counts toward the state milestone inspection. For a building from the early 1970s, several cycles have come due. Ask for the most recent report and the inspector's summary, which state law requires the association to give owners within 45 days. Our milestone inspection guide explains phase one and phase two.

Prince George reserve study

Florida requires a structural integrity reserve study for condo buildings three habitable stories or more, and budgets adopted since the end of 2024 can't waive those reserves. On a resale, you're entitled to the most recent SIRS, or a statement that none was done, at the seller's expense. How to read a SIRS covers what to look for.

Special assessments at Prince George

Where repairs outrun reserves, owners pay through a special assessment or a loan. Ask whether any is adopted, proposed or under discussion in the board minutes, and read who pays a special assessment at closing.

Prince George Condominium Fees, Insurance and Loans

Prince George HOA fees

Listings quote monthly fees, but we couldn't verify them, and they change with every budget. The estoppel certificate is the figure to rely on: it states the unit's regular payment, any special assessment and anything owed.

Insurance in the Prince George budget

At Plaza Towers North next door, insurance is about a quarter of the 2026 budget. Ask Prince George for its master policy premium, wind deductible and renewal date, so you can see whether a mid-year increase is likely.

Getting a mortgage at Prince George

Fannie Mae's Selling Guide (B4-2.1-03) treats projects needing critical repairs as ineligible, including those with an unfunded critical repair or a failed structural inspection. Have your lender order the condo questionnaire as soon as your offer is accepted, and if the building fails, see our guide to non-warrantable condo loans.

Prince George and Plaza Towers North in Hallandale Beach

The two buildings sit side by side on the same side of A1A and date from the same years, so Plaza Towers North's published 2026 numbers make a useful checklist for Prince George.

Budget line	Plaza Towers North 2026 (published)	Ask Prince George for
Monthly payment	$846 (1-bed), $982 (2-bed)	Estoppel figure for your unit
Insurance	About 25% of the budget	Premium, deductible, renewal date
Recreation lease	$206 a month per unit	Any land or recreation lease
Reserves	$141,816 SIRS contribution	SIRS date and funding level

If Prince George's totals come in close to Plaza North's without a recreation lease, more of your payment is going to the building itself. If they come in higher, find out which line explains it.

Example: comparing a Prince George estoppel

Swap in the real figures for these hypothetical ones. Say a Prince George two-bedroom's estoppel shows $1,050 a month and a $12,000 assessment still owed. Against Plaza North's $982, the monthly gap is $68, or $816 a year. The $12,000 is a one-time cost you'll inherit unless the seller pays it, so treat it as a price term and negotiate it separately from the dues.

Prince George Condominium Hallandale FAQs

Where is the Prince George condominium in Hallandale Beach?

Prince George is at 1865 South Ocean Drive, Hallandale Beach, FL 33009. The odd-numbered address puts it on the west, Intracoastal side of A1A, across the road from the ocean-front towers. Its neighbor to the north is Plaza Towers North at 1833 South Ocean Drive, on the same side of the road.

When was Prince George Hallandale built?

Directory and broker records say 1972, while some listings say 1974. The Broward County Property Appraiser's record or the certificate of occupancy settles it. Either date puts the building past Broward's 25-year safety inspection and the state's 30-year milestone inspection, so ask for its most recent inspection summary and repair status.

How many units are in the Prince George condominium?

Directory and broker records describe 249 units on 20 floors. We couldn't confirm the count from the association, which doesn't publish documents online. The declaration's unit schedule, which the seller must provide on a resale, lists every unit and its share of common expenses, which also tells you your share of any assessment.

Is Prince George an oceanfront condo?

No. Prince George is on the west side of A1A at 1865 South Ocean Drive, the Intracoastal side, so you cross the road to reach the beach. Ocean-side buildings on this stretch have even-numbered addresses. When you weigh price, compare it with other west-side towers such as Plaza Towers North rather than with the ocean-front buildings.

Does Prince George allow pets?

A directory lists Prince George as pets OK for owners, and a listing summary says large pets aren't allowed for owners or renters. Those are third-party summaries. Read the declaration and the current rules for limits by number, weight and type, and whether tenants may keep pets, before you make an offer.

What documents do I get when buying a Prince George condo?

On a resale, Florida law entitles you, at the seller's expense, to the declaration, articles, bylaws, rules, the latest budget and financial statement, the milestone inspection summary if one applies and the most recent structural integrity reserve study or a statement that none was done. You then have a short review period to cancel.
