What is considered a luxury home in South Florida?

It depends on the city. BreakThru sets a luxury threshold for each city from its own market, so the luxury pages for each city start where its top tier begins. The table on this page lists every city's threshold and the number of homes listed above it today, updated daily from the MLS, and each city's luxury homes and luxury condos pages show those listings.

Where can I buy a home with a deep-water dock in South Florida?

Fort Lauderdale's Las Olas Isles, Harbor Beach and Rio Vista, the no-fixed-bridge canals of Pompano Beach and Lighthouse Point, Royal Palm Yacht & Country Club in Boca Raton, and Admirals Cove and the Loxahatchee River in Jupiter are among the most sought-after. The homes-with-docks and no-fixed-bridges pages for each city list the live listings, and we verify dock length, depth and bridge clearances for every home we show.

Do I have to join the club to buy a home in a South Florida country club community?

It depends on the club. Some South Florida clubs require membership of every homeowner and others offer it separately, and the equity contribution, annual dues, food and beverage minimums and capital assessments vary widely and change over time. We confirm the current terms with the club for the specific home before you make an offer.

Can I buy a luxury home before it is listed?

Sometimes. Some owners of luxury homes prefer to sell quietly and will consider a qualified buyer before listing publicly, and new-construction developers release inventory in phases. Tell us what you are looking for in a private consultation and we will let you know when a home that fits becomes available, including homes that are not on the MLS where the owner allows it.

How do you market a luxury home for sale?

We price it from the closed luxury sales that match the home rather than a citywide median, prepare professional photography, video and floor plans, write the listing around what buyers at that price pay for, reach the buyers and advisors most likely to buy it, and hold private showings for qualified buyers only. Request a private consultation for a marketing plan and a valuation.

What Luxury Means, City by City

Luxury is not one number in South Florida. We set the luxury threshold for each city from its own market, so a city's luxury pages start where its top tier actually begins; the table on this page shows each threshold and how many homes are listed above it today, updated daily from the MLS. A luxury condominium in Pompano Beach, a club estate in Boca Raton and a riverfront home in Jupiter are different purchases, and the pages below separate them by property type, water frontage and community so you can compare like with like.

Oceanfront, Intracoastal and Deep-Water Estates

The most valuable frontage in South Florida is deep water with an easy run to an inlet: the finger isles off Las Olas Boulevard and Harbor Beach in Fort Lauderdale, the no-fixed-bridge canals of Pompano Beach, Royal Palm Yacht & Country Club in Boca Raton, and Admirals Cove in Jupiter. Two homes with the same square footage can differ by millions on the water alone, so for every waterfront estate we confirm the dock length, the depth at low tide, the bridges between the dock and the ocean, the seawall, the elevation and the flood zone before you make an offer.

Country Club and Guard-Gated Communities

Palm Beach County holds one of the densest concentrations of private clubs in the country, from Boca West, Broken Sound, St. Andrews and Woodfield in Boca Raton to Addison Reserve in Delray Beach and PGA National, BallenIsles and Mirasol in Palm Beach Gardens, and Broward adds Weston Hills. Membership terms are set by each club and change: some require membership of every homeowner and others offer it separately, and equity contributions, dues and capital assessments vary widely. Each community page shows its live listings and recent sales, and we confirm the club's current terms for the specific home before you offer.

Penthouses and New Oceanfront Towers

A new generation of condominium towers has changed the top of the coastal condo market, with new buildings on the sand in Pompano Beach, beachfront residences in Fort Lauderdale and towers on the Intracoastal in West Palm Beach. Each building page on this site shows its units for sale and for rent, its recent closings and its figures, updated daily. Before buying new construction, read the deposit and escrow terms, the delivery schedule and the budget the association will inherit; before buying in an established tower, read the milestone inspection reports, the reserve study and any special assessment.

Equestrian Estates

Wellington is the winter equestrian capital of the world, and the farms near its show grounds, along with Palm Beach Polo & Country Club, form a luxury market of their own; Davie adds horse-zoned estates closer to Fort Lauderdale. Equestrian property is priced on what the land allows as much as on the house: the zoning and the number of horses permitted, barns and stall counts, arenas and footing, access to bridle paths and the show grounds, and the value of a winter season lease. We confirm the permits for barns and arenas before you offer.

Discreet Buying and Selling

Many luxury buyers and sellers value privacy as much as price. We arrange private showings, work with buyers' advisors and family offices, and, where an owner allows it, introduce qualified buyers to homes before they reach the MLS. For sellers we price from the closed luxury sales that match the home, not a citywide median, and market it with professional photography, video and floor plans, targeted outreach to the buyers most likely to pay for it, and showings only to qualified buyers.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is considered a luxury home in South Florida?: It depends on the city. BreakThru sets a luxury threshold for each city from its own market, so the luxury pages for each city start where its top tier begins. The table on this page lists every city's threshold and the number of homes listed above it today, updated daily from the MLS, and each city's luxury homes and luxury condos pages show those listings.
Where can I buy a home with a deep-water dock in South Florida?: Fort Lauderdale's Las Olas Isles, Harbor Beach and Rio Vista, the no-fixed-bridge canals of Pompano Beach and Lighthouse Point, Royal Palm Yacht & Country Club in Boca Raton, and Admirals Cove and the Loxahatchee River in Jupiter are among the most sought-after. The homes-with-docks and no-fixed-bridges pages for each city list the live listings, and we verify dock length, depth and bridge clearances for every home we show.
Do I have to join the club to buy a home in a South Florida country club community?: It depends on the club. Some South Florida clubs require membership of every homeowner and others offer it separately, and the equity contribution, annual dues, food and beverage minimums and capital assessments vary widely and change over time. We confirm the current terms with the club for the specific home before you make an offer.
