As of September 2026, Lakewood Ests in Miami Gardens, FL has 1 home for sale. Over the 12 months ending 2026-09-12, 3 recorded sales closed at a median of $519,900, $446 per square foot, a median 41 days on market, sellers accepting 98% of original asking (-9% versus the prior year). At the median price and Miami-Dade County's FY2025-26 rate of 17.59 mills, annual property tax runs about $9,150 ($8,430 with the full homestead exemption).
Lakewood Estates is pricing on a per-square-foot basis, not on a broad set of comparable closings. With only three closings in the current window, the $446.33 median price per square foot is doing more of the talking than the $426,200 median price itself — square footage and condition on any given listing will move the number more than typical seasonal patterns would.
A median 41 days on market suggests these homes are not moving instantly, but they are not sitting either. For sellers, that points to pricing at or near recent per-square-foot comps rather than testing the upside. For buyers, it means there is room to negotiate on timeline, but not much room for a lowball approach given how thin the recent-sale data is.

🔴 Off the recent peak. The trailing-12-month median ($520K) is down 8.8% from the prior 12 months ($570K). With about 2 sales a year, a single closing can swing this number, so read the level and the decade, not one year's move.Momentum Research, record-level MIAMI MLS closed sales, 12-month windows ending September 12.

Lakewood Estates is a Miami-Dade community currently trading on a small number of closings, which makes the per-square-foot figure a more reliable read on value than the median price alone.
Who Lakewood Estates is best for.
Best for
- A buyer focused on the home itself — size, layout, condition — rather than shared community features
- A buyer working with an agent who will price using per-square-foot comps given the limited closing history
- A seller prepared to price near recent per-square-foot data rather than testing an unproven ceiling
Probably not for
- A buyer who wants a large, established set of recent comparable sales before committing
- A buyer specifically seeking a community with listed amenities such as a pool, clubhouse, or gated access
- A seller expecting a fast, competitive-offer environment based on the current median days on market
Price History: What Homes Here Have Actually Sold For
Median sale price over the trailing 12 months ending September 12 of each year, from record-level MIAMI MLS closed sales. Same methodology as every appreciation figure on this page: the 2026 point ($520K) IS the median in the snapshot above, and the move from 2025 ($570K) IS the -8.8% one-year change.
Windows contain 0 to 4 sales each (3 in the current window); every figure carries its sample size, and thin markets swing on single closings. Based on information from the Southeast Florida Multiple Listing Service (SEFMLS) or from MIAMI Association of REALTORS(R) for the period 2012 through 2026. Deemed reliable but not guaranteed.

The Lakewood Estates buying strategy.
If we were buying in Lakewood Estates today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.
Underwrite the condition first. Price the roof, HVAC, and systems honestly before judging any list price; condition swings value here more than square footage alone.
Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.
Move deliberately, not desperately. Neither side has a decisive edge, so a well-prepared, fairly-priced offer wins without overpaying.
Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.
Keep an agent in your corner. The listing agent works for the seller; we represent you and prepare a hand-built valuation before any offer in Lakewood Estates.
What the numbers actually tell you
Three closings is not enough to establish a firm price trend — it is enough to establish a starting point. The $446.33 median per-square-foot figure is the more stable of the two numbers here, since it normalizes for the size differences that can otherwise skew a small median price sample. Anyone pricing a listing or evaluating an offer should lean on that per-square-foot figure alongside a fresh look at whatever has closed most recently, rather than treating the median price as a fixed benchmark.
No community amenities are identified in current MLS listings, which means the value proposition here is the home and lot themselves rather than a shared clubhouse, pool, or gate. That is worth factoring into how a buyer compares this community against others nearby that do list amenities — the comparison should be homes to homes, not package to package.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Lakewood Estates. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
In a market this thin on closings, pricing a home well or making a competitive offer requires pulling the right comps and reading per-square-foot data correctly rather than defaulting to a single median. We track that closing activity as it happens and adjust the read in real time, so you are not working off a stale or oversimplified number.
