Home Prices in Hobe Sound

Over the last 90 days the median single-family home in Hobe Sound sold for $595,000 ($310 per square foot) and the median condo or townhome for $229,000 ($202 per square foot). Against the same 90 days a year earlier that is -4% for single-family homes and -11.9% for condos. Homes on the market now are asking a median $750,000 (single-family) and $449,000 (condos and townhomes). Medians describe the middle of the market; a waterfront estate and a garden condo pull in opposite directions, which is why the two segments are reported separately.

Inventory and the Pace of Sales

152 homes and condos are for sale in Hobe Sound today, 18 of them listed in the last seven days, and 36 are under contract. 30 sales closed in the last 30 days. Single-family homes carry 3.4 months of inventory and condos 15.9 months, which makes the single-family side a seller's market: under four months favours sellers, over six favours buyers. Active single-family listings have been on the market 98 days on average, condos 305 days.

Single-Family Homes vs. Condos and Townhomes

The two halves of the Hobe Sound market move differently. Single-family sellers achieved 96.1% of their asking price on the typical sale in the last 90 days after 72 days on market; condo and townhome sellers achieved 96.4% after 48 days. 61 single-family homes and 7 condos and townhomes closed in that window. Condo pricing also carries the building's fees, reserves and rental rules, so a low list price in an older tower is not the same deal as a low list price on a lot.

The Last Twelve Months

446 residential sales closed in Hobe Sound over the last twelve months. The whole-market median sold price moved from $517,500 in Oct 2025 to $440,000 in Aug 2026, a change of -15%. The month-by-month table below shows closings, median price, price per square foot and days to sell; the current month is partial until it closes.

Selling a Home in Hobe Sound

A Hobe Sound home is priced by its community first. A Lost Lake or Hobe Sound Golf Club home competes on its fairway or lake view, its club terms and its condition; a villa in The Retreat or Double Tree competes with the other villas of the same builder; a manufactured home is priced by whether the land comes with it; and a home on the water is priced by its dock, its depth and its run to the inlet. Your buyers are often also looking in Stuart, Tequesta and Jupiter, so we price from the closed sales that match. Start with a free valuation built on recent MLS sales, ask for a full comparative market analysis, or request a guaranteed cash offer if you need a fast, as-is sale.

Investing in Hobe Sound

Investors in Hobe Sound usually buy one of three things: a villa or townhome to lease to winter residents for the season, a single-family home to lease annually to families working in Stuart and Jupiter, or an older house near downtown or the water to renovate. Association rules come first, because many gated communities set a minimum lease term, limit leases a year and approve tenants, and the 55-plus sections set age rules for everyone who lives there. A renovation depends on Martin County permits, the flood zone and, near the water, the FEMA substantial-improvement rule. The rental pages show live Hobe Sound rents, and the price-reduced page tracks sellers who have cut the price.

What is the median home price in Hobe Sound?

Is Hobe Sound a buyer's market or a seller's market?
By months of inventory, the single-family side of Hobe Sound is a seller's market right now: 3.4 months of supply, with condos and townhomes at 15.9 months (buyer's market). Under four months of supply favours sellers, over six favours buyers, and the two segments often sit on different sides of that line in South Florida.
How long does it take to sell a home in Hobe Sound?
Single-family homes that closed in Hobe Sound in the last 90 days had been on the market 72 days on average, and condos and townhomes 48 days. Sellers achieved 96.1% of their asking price on the typical single-family sale and 96.4% on the typical condo sale. Well-priced homes go under contract in the first few weeks; the average is pulled up by listings that started too high.
Are home prices in Hobe Sound going up or down?
Over the last twelve months the whole-market median sold price in Hobe Sound moved from $517,500 (Oct 2025) to $440,000 (Aug 2026), -15%. Comparing the last 90 days with the same 90 days a year earlier, single-family medians are -4% and condo medians -11.9%. Monthly medians swing with the mix of homes that happened to close, so the direction over several months matters more than any one month.

Where do these numbers come from?
Every figure is computed from BeachesMLS through the Spark API: active listings are counted as of the refresh date (September 23, 2026), sold figures cover closings in the last 90 days compared with the same 90 days a year earlier, and the monthly table buckets closed sales by closing date. Statistics refresh once a day and are cached; inventory over time comes from our own daily snapshots. Nothing on this page is typed by hand, and none of it is an appraisal. BreakThru Realty's market data methodology page explains every calculation, and broker of record Tyson E. Sam reviews the method and the written guidance in this report.
