Kendall Residents Directory Search

The Kendall residents directory draws from public records kept by Miami-Dade County. Kendall is a census-designated place with a population near 78,000 in the southern part of the county. Because Kendall is not an incorporated city, it has no city hall or city clerk. All records for Kendall residents go through Miami-Dade County offices. That includes the county clerk, property appraiser, and supervisor of elections. Florida's Sunshine Law makes most of these records open to anyone who asks. This page covers where to find residents directory records for people who live in Kendall.

Kendall Records Through Miami-Dade Clerk

Since Kendall is an unincorporated area, all public records requests go through Miami-Dade County. The county clerk of courts is the main office for official records like deeds, mortgages, liens, and court filings. The clerk also handles marriage records, judgments, and other legal documents. For Kendall residents, this is the only records office that applies. There is no separate city clerk or city records portal.

The Miami-Dade County Clerk of Courts website has search tools where you can look up records by name, date range, or document type.

Many record images are on the site so you can view them without going to the courthouse in person.

The online search covers official records and court cases. For official records, you can look up deeds, liens, and other filed documents that relate to Kendall properties and residents. For court cases, you can search by party name or case number to find civil, criminal, family, and probate filings from the 11th Judicial Circuit. The clerk's office is located at 73 W Flagler Street in downtown Miami, but the online tools let you handle most searches from home. Phone inquiries go to 305-275-1155.

Note: Kendall does not have a city government, so all records requests go straight to Miami-Dade County offices.

Find Kendall Residents Directory Records

Voter rolls are a direct way to search the Kendall residents directory. Florida law makes voter data public. The records show each voter's name, home address, date of birth, and party. Social Security and license numbers are not part of the file. You can get voter data from the Miami-Dade Supervisor of Elections or from the state Division of Elections in Tallahassee. For finding a current address of someone in Kendall, voter rolls are one of the fastest options. The data updates as people register, move, or change their information.

Property records are especially useful in Kendall. The Miami-Dade County Property Appraiser has a search tool that covers all of Kendall. You can look up a name and see every property that person owns in the county. Results show the owner's name, mailing address, assessed value, and exemptions. If a Kendall resident has a Homestead exemption on a property, that is their primary home. The search is free and open to anyone. You do not need to create an account or give your name to use it.

The Florida CCIS system gives you access to court records from every county in the state. You can search by name to find civil, criminal, family, and probate cases. If a Kendall resident has a case on file anywhere in Florida, CCIS can show it. The Miami-Dade Clerk of Courts online search is more focused, covering only cases filed in the 11th Judicial Circuit. Both tools are free for basic searches.

Kendall Professional License Search

The Florida DBPR license search lets you look up licensed professionals in the Kendall area and across the state. Search by name, license number, or location. The results tell you the license type, status, address on file, and any complaints or actions. Fields covered include real estate, construction, cosmetology, restaurants, and many more. There are over a million licensees in the DBPR system statewide.

Check that the license status says Active before hiring any contractor or service provider who works in Kendall. The DBPR search is free and open to all. You can view when a license was issued, when it expires, and whether there have been any problems. Since Kendall is unincorporated, there are no separate city-level business licenses to check. The state DBPR database and any Miami-Dade County permits are what apply here.

Kendall Safety Records Search

The FDLE sexual offender and predator search covers Kendall and all of Florida. You can search by name, address, or zip code. Results include photos, descriptions, offenses, and the offender's current address. The neighborhood search tool shows all registered offenders within a set distance of any Kendall address. This is especially useful in a large residential area like Kendall where many families live.

Sign up for email alerts to get a notice when an offender moves near your Kendall address. The database updates daily as offenders check in with local law enforcement. Florida law makes it a crime to use this data to harass or threaten anyone on the registry. The tool is free and open to the public under Chapter 119 of the Florida Statutes.

Note: Since Kendall does not have its own police department, law enforcement is handled by Miami-Dade Police, and their records are available through the county.

Kendall Records Under Florida Law

Chapter 119 of the Florida Statutes is the law behind the Kendall residents directory. It says that records made or received by a public agency are open for inspection and copying. Since Kendall is unincorporated, Miami-Dade County is the public agency that holds these records. Section 119.07(1) gives any person the right to ask for records. You do not need to live in Kendall or anywhere in Florida. You do not have to say who you are or why you need the records.

Some records are exempt. Social Security numbers, driver's license numbers, and certain law enforcement details are not open to the public. Active investigation files may be sealed until the case closes. But the records that make up most of the Kendall residents directory are public. Voter rolls, property files, court records, and license data are all covered by the Sunshine Law. If a Miami-Dade County office refuses to give you records that should be open, you can challenge that under Chapter 119. Courts in Florida have a strong track record of siding with the public on records access.

Copy fees follow state rules. Up to 15 cents per one-sided page. Labor charges apply for requests that take more than 30 minutes of staff time. Most online searches for Kendall records are free. The county cannot charge more than what the state allows.
