Hey guys I’m looking for a hangar for a single engine piper warrior. I’m currently on a waiting list but be great if I could get one sooner. Either a t hangar or a community hangar works. Let me know if anyone has contacts for a south Florida location (preferably from west palm beach to pompano)
Hangar for rent?? South Florida

There used to be hangars available at KSUA....but you’re not going to like the price, last I checked were $650/month, and that was a while ago.

Supply and demand. Keep jacking rent prices until your waiting list goes to 0. Drop it back slightly until there's still a wait list, and you've found your sweet spot. One sector where you can make money in aviation. Hangars in overpopulated areas.

Wow!
There is 2 FBOs, I’d call both. There is a 141 school there, plus lots of jet traffic serving the 1%. A bonus is the presidential TFR stops short, so unless heading south you won’t have to deal with it.

Touchdown! Greaser!
At those rates I'm surprised nobody is increasing the supply. You can build a lot of hangar for 8 grand a month

It amazes me, every airport has a shortage. I know one airport built new T hangars and they were filled before they completed building them. I can only assume the airport is restricting building for some reason?

I know at our county airport there is a 3 page waiting list. The county doesn’t seem to even consider building more tee hangers but, if you want to build a 10,000 sq ft with 25 year lease in which at the end of you turn over the hanger to the county then they are all in for the project.

I went through all this a few years ago in south Florida. I finally decided to go to KIMM which is a good hour from where I live in Fort Lauderdale. But the hangar rent is right about $335, and the AV-GAS is cheap. Friendly staff at the FBO, no tower, long runways as it used to be a WW2 field. Well managed airport, they stay on top of the waiting list. I think I waited six months? You have to prove ownership of an aircraft, proof of registration, proof of insurance. No businesses in hangars. No RVs in hangars, etc...
I only fly my plane maybe twice a month so to me it's worth the drive across Alligator Alley to save the money...

KHWO has roof only “hangars” at reasonable $’s but your ins co will prob require moving the airplane with hurricane threat. However, it has the best 100LL prices in SE FL. Hats off to Rotorwash, I get the logic but it’s still a hike. KIMM in the past 1-2 yrs has had the absolute lowest 100LL prices south of Lake Okeechobee. Sheltair, based at KFXE has basically a monopoly at KFXE and KPMP. I was on their wait list for +/- 6 mo. The POC there is Nicole at 954 491 2641. I have rented hangars there since 1983 and currently pay $700/mo for a small T. Good luck.
