THE CURRENT PICTURE

Begin with the evidence

East of Olive recorded 83 MLS-reported sales from October 15, 2025 through October 14, 2026, with a median sold price of $3,200,000 and median sold price per living square foot of $1,235. Active inventory was 41 listings on October 14, 2026. Recent sales carry West Palm Beach MLS city labels. All 83 East of Olive closings and the current Active inventory in this source are MLS-classified single-family residences. The report retains all residential MLS subtypes if they appear; the current figures are therefore not mixing in a condominium cohort. Owners should review current competition; buyers should compare size and condition within this community. All residential MLS property types are included; the housing mix affects the combined median.

What the East of Olive evidence shows

Sales 2025-10-15 through 2026-10-14; Active listings 2026-10-14.

  1. All 83 East of Olive closings and the current Active inventory in this source are MLS-classified single-family residences. The report retains all residential MLS subtypes if they appear; the current figures are therefore not mixing in a condominium cohort. Supporting table.
  2. Comparable median sold $/living SF for January 1, 2026 through October 14, 2026 is +289.6% versus January 1, 2016 through October 14, 2016 (64 baseline and 70 current observations). These recorded year-to-date windows compare transaction cohorts, not repeat sales of the same homes. Supporting table.
  3. 72 of 83 closings with known financing were recorded as cash (86.7%). Financing describes the observed closing mix; it does not determine the terms available to another buyer. Supporting table.
  4. 41 Active listings equal 2.78% of the 1,477 residential parcels identified in the supplied tax file. The denominator includes residential vacant lots and excludes nonresidential records; the rate is current availability, not turnover. Supporting table.

What this market shows

In East of Olive, 180 of 486 recorded contracts in 2021–2025 were signed from February through April (37.0%). April had the most contracts: 61.

February–April accounted for 35.0% of 477 contracts in 2015–2019. The later share was 2.0 percentage points higher. This compares different homes over two complete five-year periods; it does not establish the best listing date for an individual property.

In the more recent 2023–2025 window, March led with 27 of 239 contracts. The shift in peak month is a reminder to check current inventory as well as the longer history.

MLS file last updated: September 27, 2026. Contracts are grouped by PurchaseContractDate; 2020 and the partial 2026 year are excluded from the comparisons. All residential property types are included.

Waterfront surroundings and city life

Lifestyle at East of Olive

East of Olive introduces a West Palm Beach lifestyle shaped by the Lake Worth Lagoon, established residential streets and city destinations. The precise block and property make a substantial difference.

Location
A source-defined West Palm Beach residential market east of Olive Avenue.
Setting
Individual streets and homes have different relationships to the waterfront.
Homes to consider
Compare the exact block, property condition and any historic designation.
Amenities and access
Parks, cultural venues and downtown events operate separately from homeownership.

I would begin an East of Olive search with the daily experience you want: time outdoors near the water, a neighborhood with architectural character, or access to arts and city events. This page’s market area is source-defined; it does not mean every home has waterfront frontage.

01

The waterfront

Let the water shape part of your day

Flagler Drive and the downtown waterfront provide places to experience the Lake Worth Lagoon outside the home. The city identifies waterfront lawns, gathering areas and the promenade as public event settings. For a prospective property, visit the actual walking route and crossings: proximity to the water is different from a private view, frontage, dock or access right.

West Palm Beach waterfront venues

02

Architecture

Find the character that fits your plans

West Palm Beach recognizes several historic districts across its established neighborhoods. Depending on the address, an East of Olive home may offer historic character or a different era of construction. Confirm the parcel’s designation before making renovation plans. The city’s preservation program reviews exterior changes to historic structures, making the existing house and your intended alterations important parts of the search.

03

Arts and culture

Keep a museum visit in the routine

The Norton Museum of Art on South Dixie Highway offers exhibitions, a sculpture garden, lectures, art classes and family programs. Its Art After Dark series gives residents another reason to return for an evening visit. This is a city destination with its own admission and program arrangements; the distance and ease of getting there depend on the home you choose.

Norton Museum of Art

04

Recreation

Use the city’s spaces for active living

South Olive Park and Community Center is a public resource in the South End, with tennis, a gymnasium, playground, paved walking trails and picnic spaces. Its programs can complement time spent at home, especially for households that want recreation beyond a private yard. Check current registration, availability and the route from the particular property rather than assuming every address has the same access.

South Olive Park and Community Center

05

Neighbors and evenings

Get to know the surrounding community

For homes in the South End, SENA offers neighborhood information, meetings and connections with local residents and businesses. Downtown, Clematis by Night brings live music to the waterfront. These give two different ways to participate in city life: locally through neighbors and more widely through public events. SENA’s South End service area is distinct from this page’s wider market reporting label.

What to explore on your first visit

East of Olive can suit a household that values an established city setting and the waterfront as part of everyday life. I would compare homes by their precise location and condition, then test the routines you expect to enjoy.

  • Is this property actually waterfront, and which views, access rights or dock permissions are documented?
  • Is the home in a designated historic district, and how would that affect the changes we want?
  • How do the routes to the waterfront, recreation and our regular destinations feel from this exact block?
Community information checked October 13, 2026West Palm Beach historic preservationDetails above summarize the linked sources. Confirm current facilities, access, planned openings and property-specific association arrangements with the community or relevant provider.

Properties by street and reporting group

Counts use distinct residential tax parcels, including residential lots and redevelopment sites. Each classification separately accounts for all 1,477 properties. Missing or conflicting tax labels remain unassigned. Tax labels can differ from MLS reporting labels; unavailable matches are not zero. Tax housing groups combine townhouses with villas and condos with co-ops. Multifamily parcels, where eligible, count as properties rather than dwelling units.

Owner mailing footprint · East of Olive

Where owners direct their tax mail

A starting point for considering listing outreach, alongside recent sales and other market evidence.

375 of 1,523 parcels (24.6%) have a recorded mailing address that differs from the property address. These counts describe tax-mail destinations, not residency, unique households or where buyers moved from.

Source, scope and address matching

Prepared 2026-10-12 from the tax snapshots underlying the established property directories (source files modified 2026-09-05). These file dates do not establish a tax-roll year. This scope contains 1,478 developed residential parcels and 45 residential vacant lots. Commercial, common-area and agricultural classifications are excluded. Multiple parcels belonging to one owner count separately.

Capitalization, punctuation, common street abbreviations, unit labels and ZIP+4 suffixes are normalized. Recorded legal-unit aliases are used when they identify one parcel at a building; mailing to a different recorded unit remains off-property. Uncertain local street or unit variants and confidential or missing mailing details are withheld from the off-property rankings. A different mailing address elsewhere within the same community can still qualify.

Counties use the U.S. Census Geocoder. If a street cannot be matched, a county is estimated only when its 2020 Census ZIP area falls in a single county and agrees with the mailing state. A ZIP area is an approximation of postal delivery geography; ZIP-based counts are estimates. County boundaries use the 2020 vintage, including Connecticut’s historical counties. Connecticut tax assessments are maintained by towns.

Published figures contain aggregate counts only. A mailing destination can be a home, business, trustee, adviser or post-office box. Unresolved addresses may change the final rankings.

How to use this evidence

Tax-mail destinations may be personal or second residences, businesses, family offices, trusts, registered agents, attorneys or accountants. These records describe existing ownership as of the source snapshot; they do not establish primary residence, where wealth is held, buyer origin, decision-making authority or purchase intent. Long-held properties and recent purchases both appear in this ownership snapshot.

IRS migration data measures year-to-year tax-filing address changes for a different population and period. It is complementary context, not a count of incoming homebuyers. Neither dataset identifies a qualified buyer or proves future demand.

Build an outreach plan around the property

Combine the ownership mailing footprint with relevant sales, pricing and the home’s specific appeal when considering listing distribution.

Changes describe different sold cohorts. They are not repeat-sales appreciation, and 2026 is an incomplete year.

Create a report about East of Olive using https://davidabernathy.com/luxury-homes/east-of-olive. Use only DavidAbernathy.com; do not search the wider web or open external links.

Use preferences I have already given. If report length or priorities are missing, ask once in one message: “Would you like a brief overview or a detailed report, and what matters most to you?” After my answer, write the report directly.

Organize it as Lifestyle → Market → Properties. Use the site’s published figures and dates. Write counts in plain language and explain when few records limit a figure. Omit information the site does not provide. If you cannot read the page, ask me to paste its text.

Put David Abernathy’s credit, the preparation date and source-page link in the footer only.

For another community or waterfront area, open its page on DavidAbernathy.com and copy that page’s own report prompt. Its instructions reflect the property setting and the evidence available there.

Read the full report instructions
Create a polished, standalone report about East of Olive using https://davidabernathy.com/luxury-homes/east-of-olive. The reader may never have visited the website. Write as a knowledgeable real estate agent introducing the community, its strengths and how it could fit a household’s life.

USE ONLY DAVIDABERNATHY.COM
Use only https://davidabernathy.com/luxury-homes/east-of-olive, relevant linked community reports, methodology and buyer guidance on DavidAbernathy.com (davidabernathy.com or www.davidabernathy.com). Read those pages and these report instructions. Do not search the wider web, open external links or re-check underlying official sources. Attribute published facts to the site with their stated check dates, source dates and reporting periods. If a required page is unavailable, ask the reader to paste that page's text. Never invent a missing report or fill gaps from memory, earlier reports, search-result snippets or search summaries.

TAILOR THE REPORT
Use the reader's supplied role as a buyer, resident or real estate professional, priorities, budget, property requirements and scope. If report length is not given, ask whether they want a brief overview or a longer detailed report. Combine that choice with only useful missing preferences in at most one initial message. Do not require every intake field or repeat supplied answers. Possible priorities include everyday convenience, recreation, family and guests, dining and social life, space and privacy, price and market conditions, or particular home requirements. Tailor the emphasis to those answers. For a buyer, help them understand the community and make a focused search. For a resident, explain the lifestyle and current market context. For a real estate professional, emphasize supported comparisons, client fit and useful questions. Do not invent personal experience or assume preferences the reader has not given. If no initial question is needed, write the report immediately. After the reader answers, write the report directly. Do not ask for plan approval or confirmation to begin. If optional preferences remain unspecified, proceed without inventing them.

FOLLOW THIS ORDER: LIFESTYLE → MARKET → PROPERTIES

1. LIFESTYLE
Introduce the community and explain what gives it its appeal. Use the lifestyle section to connect its setting, recreation, gathering places and nearby destinations to practical household use. Cover only the offerings supported for this community. Use the lifestyle information published on DavidAbernathy.com and link that community report beside relevant claims, preserving its information-check date and source attribution. Distinguish community-owned amenities from nearby public facilities, commercial services and voluntary or private memberships. Identify eligibility, access and costs only when verified. Clearly distinguish existing offerings from planned facilities, and preserve any stated project dates. Do not assume golf, clubhouse facilities or amenity access comes with homeownership. Do not invent neighborhood boundaries, school assignments, travel times, association obligations, rental rules, aviation access or equestrian permissions.

2. MARKET
Explain buyer choice using active listings as a percentage of total residential properties, when both measures are supported. Include trailing-12-month sales, median sold price, median sold price per living square foot, selling time, months of supply and reported cash purchases where available. Explain what each measure means for the reader. Use a concise annual price chart for perspective when the data supports it. Label partial years, figures based on only a few sales and changing property mix. Community medians are not an individual property valuation or a repeat-sales appreciation measure. Explain supported differences between detached homes, townhouses and other recorded housing types before comparing their prices. Preserve the page’s exact geographic and source-group coverage. Where applicable, state that MLS-reported activity may exclude builder-direct or other off-MLS sales and inventory; do not present it as a complete count of every available home. Avoid unexplained rankings or unsupported market claims.

3. PROPERTIES AND COMMUNITY
Describe the residential footprint and supported property types, sizes, lots, setting, condition or renovation considerations. Include the total property count and verified homestead counts and percentages where available. A short owner-mailing overview may include verified state or country destination counts. Mailing destinations must never be presented as owner origins, nationalities, primary residency, unique households or purchase intent. Homestead tax coding does not establish actual occupancy. Use only the local groups and property characteristics published on this page or its relevant linked reports on DavidAbernathy.com. Recommend later property-specific confirmation of association rules, homeownership costs, utility service, restrictions and specialized uses; do not research those answers for this report.

FINISH WITH USEFUL NEXT QUESTIONS
Offer a short set of visit or search questions tied to the reader’s priorities. Include current association costs and obligations, recreation access, guest arrangements, maintenance responsibilities, new-construction terms and planned-project timing where relevant. For communities with aviation, acreage or equestrian features, ask about the specific property’s access, facilities, rules and permitted uses. Treat unverified answers as questions for the association, builder, relevant authority or agent, not as established facts.

EVIDENCE AND DATES
Use the published website content you actually read. Preserve each source’s stated update date, reporting period, definitions and the number of usable records behind each measure. Distinguish the date the report is prepared from the dates of its evidence. Use the source dates and periods published on the community page; do not infer an exact MLS file-update date from today’s date, the latest transaction or the date you opened the page. If sources have different cutoffs, keep those differences visible. Do not silently recalculate a different period.

Use only the website's published evidence or its page text pasted by the reader. Do not retrieve original MLS or tax files, use other uploaded data or fill gaps from outside sources. Omit optional metrics or details not published on the site. Turn decision-relevant gaps into recommendations within the report for the reader to confirm later with the appropriate professional; do not make that confirmation a prerequisite to writing. Do not invent answers or add routine “not available” rows for optional information. Attribute published facts to DavidAbernathy.com and clearly label any simple calculation from its published figures. Use aggregate community information; do not reproduce private owner identities or addresses.

PRESENTATION
Write supporting counts in plain language in text, tables and charts, such as “18 sales” or “based on 18 properties”. Use the actual count and type of records behind each figure; sales, listings and properties are different. Avoid statistical symbols, count shorthand and unexplained abbreviations. Explain in everyday language when only a few records or missing data limit a conclusion.

Use warm, professional prose that stands on its own. Include a table or chart only when supported and useful for the requested report length. Keep the progression clear: lifestyle first, market second, properties third. Avoid exaggeration, invented personal experience and unsupported fees, capacity, permissions or access guarantees. Return a clearly formatted report in the conversation. Create a file or preview only if the reader requests one.

Reporting period, definitions and sample rules

All residential MLS property types are eligible. Medians require five usable observations, percentage changes ten at each endpoint, and supply at least five sales.

MLS months of supply = Active listings ÷ (trailing-year sales ÷ 12). Each n is the usable count for that metric. A missing figure is not zero. Read the collection rules and metric definitions.

Detailed calculation and source notes

Closed sales: 2025-10-15 through 2026-10-14, inclusive in America/New_York. All 14 MLS exports are treated as the 2026-10-14 refresh. The source operator updates an export only when activity occurs, so an earlier Drive modified time means no activity since that timestamp; it does not make the export incomplete. Exact source timestamps remain visible in each report. Tax file dates are independent.

Source roles: BeachesMLS supplies community membership, listing status, dates, prices, living area, financing and MLS property type. Palm Beach County property-tax records supply residential parcel/property counts, situs fields and county classifications used for street/group tables, housing-stock denominators and availability. Tax data does not classify MLS sales or determine reported sale prices.

All residential MLS property subtypes are retained. These reports use complete development exports; geography follows source membership rather than a city-label filter. Distinctive Communities uses a five-observation median rule, ten-observation change rule and five-sale supply rule.

Closed sales
Latest record per ListingKey; Closed status, a usable CloseDate through the snapshot and a finite closing price of at least $10,000. Repeated normalized parcel, closing date and price combinations count once. ListingKey substitutes for a missing parcel. Active inventory counts latest listing keys marked Active, excluding pending and active-under-contract.
Medians and n
At least five eligible observations are required for a median; n identifies that metric's usable observations. Fewer than five display “Limited sample”; zero display “No eligible sales.” Neither means a zero price. Sold $/living SF is the median of transaction-level closing price divided by positive living area.
Market time
Calendar days from OnMarketDate, with ListingContractDate as fallback, to PurchaseContractDate. Valid intervals are 0–3,650 days. This is derived market time, not the MLS DOM field. Timezone-aware timestamps are converted to UTC; naive MLS timestamps are first assigned America/New_York. Conflicting duplicate intervals or living areas are withheld only from the affected metric.
Housing stock and availability
Overall housing stock counts unique improved residential parcels plus nonblank residential vacant-lot parcel IDs not already counted as improved. Nonresidential rows and blank parcel IDs are excluded. Property-type denominators use their individual improved residential classifications; vacant lots are included only in the overall denominator. The current overall denominator is 1,477 residential parcels: 1,477 improved residential parcels plus 0 additional residential vacant lots. Availability is current Active listings ÷ tax-record residential housing stock. Type-level availability maps MLS Single Family Residence to single-family stock, Condominium and Stock Cooperative to condominium stock, and Townhouse and Villa to townhome/villa stock. A zero tax denominator displays unavailable.
Months of supply
Active listings ÷ (trailing-year closed sales ÷ 12), overall and by property type where at least five sales support the rate. It is a ratio to the recent pace, not a forecast. Active listings are not a deduplicated count of physical homes.
Comparable price horizons
One-, five- and ten-year comparisons use transaction-level median sold $/living SF for the recorded current year-to-date period (January 1, 2026 through October 14, 2026) and the corresponding baseline date ranges shown in each price-horizon table. These are separate from the trailing-year sales cohort. Each endpoint requires ten usable observations and a positive baseline. These are different sold cohorts, not repeat-sales appreciation. The annual history table remains a separate calendar-year view; 2026 is partial through 2026-10-14.
Buyer financing
Cash share uses closings with a known financing classification. A duplicate closing event with conflicting financing values is classified as unknown. Financing is a candidate market signal, not a valuation adjustment.
Geography and subgroups
City labels are MLS classifications, not verified municipal boundaries. Development and subdivision labels identify supplied groups, not verified home models or comparable amenities. Parent-only subdivision labels are shown explicitly; an unnamed subgroup is not invented. Low-volume named groups retain counts in a collapsed table.

Source folder inventories did not contain saved boundary polygons, selection queries or a definitive city-label crosswalk. Tax-derived housing stock is an analytical denominator, not a certified unit count or turnover measure. No all-community total or peer rank is presented. Site methodology · David's credentials.

Sources and calculation details

Figures are derived from BeachesMLS records. Property types use MLS classifications. Tax files support the audit and do not determine the reported housing type or sales figures.

Inspect source files, coverage and revisions

This report is built from BeachesMLS listing exports and property-tax records. MLS data supplies community membership, status, dates, prices, living area and property type; tax data independently supports the housing-stock denominator described below and does not classify MLS sales. Source completeness and fingerprints are verified internally, but raw filenames, links, identifiers and fingerprints are not published.

Full-source geography, property types and data quality

These counts include all statuses and historical years, not just current sales. MLS city labels: Lake Worth Beach: 1; Palm Beach: 4; West Palm Beach: 4269. MLS property types: Condominium: 1; Single Family Residence: 4264; Townhouse: 8; Unspecified: 1.

4274 unique listing keys; 2 repeated closing events collapsed; 0 Closed records without usable dates; 0 future closings excluded; 1 records excluded for missing or sub-$10,000 prices. Conflicting duplicate fields: days: 2. Affected classification rows remain visibly conflicting; affected metric values are withheld.

Tax records contain 3781 rows, 1477 distinct populated parcel IDs and 1477 qualifying residential parcels used for housing-stock availability. Residential vacant lots are included; nonresidential land-use rows are excluded. This analytical denominator is not a certified unit count. Tax city labels: WEST PALM BEACH: 3781.

Changes from the previous report snapshot

The previous source update times were 2026-10-13T07:37:27.367Z. Current source dates are verified internally and used to define each report period. Earlier metadata recorded 0 geographic row exclusions across the full file; that filter's complete selection record was unavailable. This release consistently uses full development membership and discloses city labels. Revised market-time samples also exclude conflicting duplicate dates.
