Lauderdale-by-the-Sea Oceanfront Condos

 - June 2026

Market Segment: Oceanfront Condos "On The Sand" in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea
Executive Summary:

Lauderdale-by-the-Sea oceanfront condos are currently in a balanced market, with 77 active listings, 9.2 months of supply, and a Market Index of 53. Inventory and median list price were essentially flat year over year, suggesting market conditions have stabilized after prior volatility. Because this is a smaller coastal segment, short-term swings can be more pronounced, so the more important takeaway is that the market appears relatively steady overall. Buyers have more choice than in a true seller’s market, while well-positioned properties can still attract solid interest.

Median Sale Price and Sales Volume: 10-Year Trends

*6-Mo Trend:
Represents the median sale price per square foot over the previous six months.

The 10-Year Trend Table shows Median Sale Price, Median Dollar per Square Foot ($/SqFt) and Units Sold over the past 10 years. The table also includes year over year changes (% Δ) to Median Sale Price and $/SqFt. The 10-Year Trend Chart visually demonstrates the change in Median $/SqFt compared to Total Units Sold per year. Median $/SqFt provides a more stable measure of pricing change, especially in smaller local markets where median figures can be heavily influenced by the size, quality, or price range of properties sold in a given period.

 

Trailing 6 Month Analysis

The Trailing 6 Month Analysis is a rolling view of market activity based on the most recent six months of data. Instead of analyzing just one month, this approach combines the latest six months to smooth out short-term fluctuations. This is especially useful in smaller local markets, where low monthly sales volume can distort one-month results. By analyzing the most recent six months together, it reduces volatility and offers a clearer view of underlying market conditions. Affect on Seasonality: The Trailing 6 Month Table lists 6 metrics pulled from 6 months of sales data, and compares those metrics to the same period of time last year. Comparing the latest six months to the same period last year helps reduce seasonality by measuring performance against the same seasonal window.
