Home Prices in Lake Worth Beach
Over the last 90 days the median single-family home in Lake Worth Beach sold for $520,000 ($384 per square foot) and the median condo or townhome for $130,000 ($168 per square foot). Against the same 90 days a year earlier that is +5.1% for single-family homes and +10.6% for condos. Homes on the market now are asking a median $540,000 (single-family) and $135,000 (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 Lake Worth Beach today, 11 of them listed in the last seven days, and 26 are under contract. 24 sales closed in the last 30 days. Single-family homes carry 4.6 months of inventory and condos 7.6 months, which makes the single-family side a balanced market: under four months favours sellers, over six favours buyers. Active single-family listings have been on the market 98 days on average, condos 129 days.
Single-Family Homes vs. Condos and Townhomes
The two halves of the Lake Worth Beach market move differently. Single-family sellers achieved 97.3% of their asking price on the typical sale in the last 90 days after 58 days on market; condo and townhome sellers achieved 94.6% after 94 days. 57 single-family homes and 25 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
401 residential sales closed in Lake Worth Beach over the last twelve months. The whole-market median sold price moved from $425,000 in Oct 2025 to $450,000 in Aug 2026, a change of +5.9%. 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 Lake Worth Beach
A Lake Worth Beach home is priced block by block. A restored 1920s cottage near downtown, a duplex with two rented units, a College Park home near the lagoon and a 55-plus condo on Lake Osborne each draw a different buyer and have their own comparable sales, and those buyers are also looking in West Palm Beach, Lantana and Boynton Beach. Historic character, a permitted guest cottage, the age of the roof, impact windows and the flood zone all move the price. Start with a free valuation built on recent MLS sales, ask for a full comparative market analysis before you list, or request a guaranteed cash offer if you need a fast, as-is sale.
Investing in Lake Worth Beach
Investors come to Lake Worth Beach for small income properties. Duplexes, triplexes and fourplexes from the 1920s to the 1970s are spread through the older grid east of I-95, and many single-family lots carry a second cottage or garage apartment. Tenants include year-round renters who work in West Palm Beach and across central Palm Beach County, and winter visitors who want to be near the beach and downtown. Before you offer, ask for the rent roll and the leases, confirm that every unit is permitted under the city's zoning, find out what the city requires to register a rental and whether short-term stays are allowed at the address, and budget for older plumbing, electrical and roof work. The investment page lists the multifamily properties for sale now, and the rental pages show live Lake Worth Beach rents.

Lake Worth Beach Housing Market FAQ
- What is the median home price in Lake Worth Beach?
- Over the last 90 days the median sold price in Lake Worth Beach was $520,000 for single-family homes and $130,000 for condos and townhomes, from BeachesMLS closings as of September 23, 2026. Homes for sale now are asking a median $540,000 and $135,000 respectively. These figures refresh daily on this page.
- Is Lake Worth Beach a buyer's market or a seller's market?
- By months of inventory, the single-family side of Lake Worth Beach is a balanced market right now: 4.6 months of supply, with condos and townhomes at 7.6 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 Lake Worth Beach?
- Single-family homes that closed in Lake Worth Beach in the last 90 days had been on the market 58 days on average, and condos and townhomes 94 days. Sellers achieved 97.3% of their asking price on the typical single-family sale and 94.6% 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 Lake Worth Beach going up or down?
- Over the last twelve months the whole-market median sold price in Lake Worth Beach moved from $425,000 (Oct 2025) to $450,000 (Aug 2026), +5.9%. Comparing the last 90 days with the same 90 days a year earlier, single-family medians are +5.1% and condo medians +10.6%. Monthly medians swing with the mix of homes that happened to close, so the direction over several months matters more than any one month.
- What is the median rent in Lake Worth Beach?
- The median asking rent in Lake Worth Beach is $2,000 a month across 150 active rentals: $3,000 for houses and townhomes and $1,700 for condos and apartments. The Lake Worth Beach rentals hub carries the full rental market table, updated daily.
- 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.
