Palm Beach & Broward: January 2026 Market Recap

📍 Palm Beach County: High Demand, Higher Value

Single Family Homes: Buyers are out in force! Closed sales are up over 10%, and the median price has climbed to $700,000. If you’re selling, your home is likely moving 16.7% faster than this time last year.

Townhouses/Condos: Activity is strong with an 8.7% increase in sales. While prices dipped slightly to $325,000, the 11.3% increase in "Days to Contract" suggests buyers are taking a bit more time to choose the perfect unit.

📍 Broward County: The Strategic Buyer’s Market

Single Family Homes: We are seeing a healthy stabilization. The median price is $620,000, and inventory has actually decreased slightly (-2.5%), keeping values supported despite a small price adjustment.

Townhouses/Condos: This is the "Opportunity Zone." With an 11.5-month supply of inventory and prices down 8.1% to $250,000, buyers have significant leverage to negotiate.

The Bottom Line: If you are a seller in Palm Beach, the momentum is on your side. If you are a condo buyer, Broward is offering some of the best values we've seen in recent years.
