01 / FOR PROPERTY OWNERS
Before you sell,
know where you stand.
Choose your community, then the question on your mind. See the answer, what it means for a seller, and the figures behind it. Explore subdivisions and individual streets where available.
Which properties are included?
Country clubs and distinctive communities cover all residential property types. The original seller reports below follow their published MLS community and street groups; some waterfront-area groups include other property types or neighboring areas. The additional community comparison uses Palm Beach County parcel matching and limits waterfront to single-family residences marked as waterfront.

How this comparison is calculated
Select a market to see its source period, peer group and supporting comparisons.
Your property vs. its real peer group A market average is a starting point. A property-specific analysis looks more closely at the homes buyers will actually compare with yours—including location, condition, lot, access, current competition, recent sales, and listings that failed to sell.
The analysis is private. Address-specific evidence is not published on the site.

A FEW QUESTIONS WORTH ASKING
Before you
list your property.
How should a seller compare country-club properties?
Start with similar property types, locations and features. Then compare completed sales, competing listings and time to contract. The country-club comparison includes all residential property types, so look closer at the mix of homes in each community. Ask the club directly about membership eligibility, availability, fees and whether purchasing a home requires membership. A property purchase does not by itself establish membership.
What makes one waterfront home different from another?
Oceanfront, Intracoastal, river and canal settings offer different experiences. Boat draft, bridge clearance, water depth, dock permission and the route to an inlet require property-specific verification. Compare similar waterfront settings before treating a market median as a price benchmark.
Does a higher months-of-supply figure mean a home is overpriced?
No. Months of supply is the number of active listings divided by the average monthly pace of trailing closed sales. It describes supply relative to recent activity. It does not determine a particular home’s value or predict its selling time.
Does historical appreciation measure what my home gained?
No. The historical explorer compares annual median sold price per living square foot. Different homes sell in different years, and a partial current year is not a complete-year comparison. It is market context, not a repeat-sales index or an individual valuation.
The intelligence is analytical. The advice is personal.
