The single-family figure is the asking-rent median for Longwood listings on Homes.com and includes Longwood addresses outside city limits. The all-types figure comes from a separate source and was about flat year over year. Housing figures are Census estimates for the city boundary.

Across the Orlando metro, the median rent is $1,519 as of August 2026 (Apartment List). The full metro picture, sourced and dated, is in our quarterly Orlando rental market report.

We know Longwood, inside city limits and out.

The City of Longwood is home to about 17,000 people, but the Longwood renters search for is much bigger. ZIP 32779 also covers the unincorporated Wekiwa Springs area, with about 23,000 residents, including communities like Sweetwater Oaks, Wekiva Hunt Club, and Sabal Point. Those homes carry Longwood addresses but follow Seminole County rules, not city rules, for permits and code enforcement. We confirm which side your home is on from county property records before any work begins.

Inside the city, much of the housing is older and lived in by its owners: about 68% of homes are detached single-family, and about 7 in 10 occupied homes are owner-occupied. Neighborhoods like Highland Hills, built mostly in the mid-1970s, have no HOA, so roof, HVAC, plumbing, and tree care fall to the owner. The town center is changing too. South Seminole Hospital, across from Reiter Park, closed in January 2025. Its campus now has a new emergency room, and Orlando Health’s plan for the rest of the site calls for a town center with apartments, shops, and offices. We price your home against similar houses nearby and plan its upkeep before a tenant moves in.

Longwood owner questions, answered

How much does property management cost in Longwood?
Our published plans run from 0% monthly (Lease Only) to full-service plans at 8% or 9% of monthly rent, with every fee listed on our pricing page. You only pay a management fee on rent we actually collect.
What should my Longwood home rent for?
Single-family homes with Longwood addresses list around $2,299 as of November 2026 (Homes.com), with 3-bedroom houses around $2,295 and 4-bedroom houses around $2,755. Across all rental types, the median was $2,162 in October 2026, about flat from a year earlier (Realtor.com). Your number depends on the neighborhood, age, and condition, so we prepare a free rental analysis from live local comparables, usually within one business day.
Is my 32779 home in the City of Longwood?
Maybe not. Communities like Sweetwater Oaks, Wekiva Hunt Club, and Sabal Point have Longwood addresses but sit in unincorporated Seminole County. The county property appraiser’s record shows the tax district for every parcel, and that decides whose permits and code rules apply. We check it before planning any work on your home.
What leasing rules apply in my Wekiva-area community?
Many communities here, including Sweetwater Oaks and the Sabal Point condos, have mandatory associations. Their rules can include tenant approval, minimum lease terms, or rental caps, and they vary association by association. We review your documents before listing and handle any approval process as part of placement.
Will apartments on the old hospital site compete with my rental?
Some, if they are built. Orlando Health’s plan for the former South Seminole Hospital campus calls for a town center that includes apartments, and new managed apartments compete best for renters who want a newer unit with amenities. A house with a yard and no shared walls competes for a different renter. We watch new supply and price your home against what renters near you are actually touring.
What should I fix before renting a 1970s home with no HOA?
The items renters and inspections find first: roof age, HVAC, the electrical panel, plumbing, and large trees near the house. With no HOA, exterior upkeep is all yours, so we flag these before setting the rent and line up licensed and insured vendors for anything that needs work. If your home is in the historic district, we check with the city before any exterior change.
