Penthouses for Sale in Homestead

Before You Buy a Penthouse in Homestead, Know the Building.

Penthouses in Homestead are the top floors of the buildings on the canals and the Intracoastal, in communities such as The Redland, Keys Gate, Altamira, The Riviera and Towngate. This page lists every condominium for sale in Homestead whose MLS unit number marks it as a penthouse, by building, with the asking price, the price per square foot and the facts the listing carries.

What Penthouse Buyers Weigh in Homestead

  • A canal front building's seawall and docks are costly to replace; ask for their age and the reserves set aside for them.
  • Lake views sell above interior views in the same building; compare a penthouse with the sales in its own line.
  • Many buildings label two or three upper floors as penthouses; the floor plan, the ceiling height and the deeded terrace tell you what the label means here.

The Building Decides What the Penthouse Is Worth

A penthouse shares its roof, its elevators and its budget with every residence below it, and it usually carries the largest share of whatever the association decides to spend. Before you price an offer, read the association budget, the reserve study, the milestone inspection report and any special assessment, and ask who pays when the roof above your ceiling leaks. A BreakThru Realty broker gathers those documents with the building's own penthouse sales, so you compare the residence with the ones it actually competes with. Request a private penthouse review on this page and we start with the building.

Three Top Floors Can All Be Called Penthouses

Many towers label two or three upper floors as penthouses, lower and upper, and some label a whole line of large residences that way. The word tells you less than the floor plan, the ceiling height, the deeded terrace and the line of the view. We read the plan and the declaration of condominium with you, confirm what the unit owns and what it only has the use of, and show you the top floor residences listed under plain unit numbers that never appear on a page like this.

How to Read a Penthouse Listing

Price the terrace and the view, not the label
Two penthouses in the same building can differ widely in price on the terrace, the ceiling height and the direction they face. Compare the asking price with the penthouses sold in that building and the towers beside it, not with the units on the floors below.
Read the reserves before the finishes
A renovated penthouse in a building facing a large assessment can cost more than a dated one in a building with funded reserves. Ask for the budget, the reserve study, the milestone inspection and the minutes of the last board meetings.
Ask what the unit owns
Rooftop terraces, plunge pools, private elevator landings, cabanas, storage and parking are deeded differently from building to building. The declaration says what conveys with the unit and what is a limited common element you share or lease.
Count the new towers nearby
A penthouse in an older oceanfront building competes with the top floors of the new construction a few blocks away. The developer's current pricing, the deposit terms and the delivery date are part of the comparison.

Own a Penthouse? Your Buyer May Already Be Working With BreakThru Realty

Penthouse buyers ask for specific things: a building, a line, a terrace, a view, a floor. When a buyer working with BreakThru Realty tells us what they want, we keep a record of it. Before your penthouse is photographed or announced, a broker checks it against those requirements and tells you privately whether anything might fit. If no buyer on file fits, the marketing plan that reaches the rest of the market follows, built around your objectives. See if we already have your buyer before you list.

Homestead Penthouses: Questions

What counts as a penthouse in Homestead on this page?
A condominium for sale in Homestead whose MLS unit number marks it as a penthouse: PH, UPH, LPH or the word itself. The MLS has no penthouse field, so the label is the listing agent's, and a top floor residence entered under a plain unit number does not appear here. Ask us about a building and we check its upper floors by hand.
How do I schedule a private showing of a penthouse in Homestead?
Ask us for the one you want to see. Penthouse showings are by appointment, usually with proof of funds or a lender letter, and some buildings ask for notice a day ahead. A BreakThru Realty broker books the showing and sends the building's recent penthouse sales and its association documents before you walk through.

To request a tour, call (786) 914-1017 or email sales@breakthrurealty.com.

How do I compare a Homestead penthouse with the rest of its building?
Start with the penthouses that have sold in the same building and in the towers beside it, adjusted for the floor, the terrace, the view line and the condition, then read the association budget, the reserve study, the milestone inspection and any assessment. A price in line with those sales is a fair price; one far above them leaves room to negotiate. Request a private penthouse review on this page and a broker pulls the sales and reads the documents with you before you offer.
