Dorchester Condo (West Palm Beach, FL): 10 recorded closings in the 12 months ending 2026-09-20, a 7-year price record, and sales split by price band and home size — every number from recorded MLS closings, none from an estimate model.
In the current window, sellers accepted a median 78.2% of original asking; the median sale took 127 days (window ending 2026-09-20).
| Year | Median sold | Median $/sqft | Median DOM | Sold ÷ original ask | Sales |

Over the recorded series, Dorchester Condo’s median sold price moved from $34,000 (2018) to $58,000 (12 months ending 2026-09-20) — +71% over that span, with every year’s figure from recorded closings, not a model.
The recorded series starts in 2018 at $34,000. Against the 2024 peak of $114,750, the current median stands at -49%. Annual sales volume here has ranged from 1 to 10 closings a year (10-yr average 4.9). With roughly 4.9 closings a year, Dorchester Condo’s medians move in steps, not curves — a handful of unusual sales can swing a year, which is why the sales count sits next to every figure above.
Of the 15 recorded Dorchester Condo closings since 2024, half landed between $54,000 and $107,375 (the middle two quartiles); the lowest recorded sale was $40,000 and the highest $150,000. If your home sits outside the middle band, the reason usually shows up in the size table below before it shows up in condition.
| Sold price band | Share of closings | Sales |
|---|---|---|
| Under $50,000 | 2 (13%) | |
| $50,000 – $75,000 | 4 (27%) | |
| $75,000 – $100,000 | 4 (27%) | |
| $100,000 – $125,000 | 2 (13%) | |
| None and up | 3 (20%) |
The same recorded closings, split into thirds by living area. Find the row your home falls in: the $/sqft figure times your square footage is the recorded-sales bracket for homes like yours here — a starting range from real closings, not a valuation of your specific property. Larger homes here have been selling at a higher price per square foot than smaller ones ($169 vs $91) — less common, and usually a sign of newer or upgraded product at the top of the range.
| Size group | Median $/sqft | Median sold | Sold range | Sales |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Smaller homes 570–646 sq ft | $91 | $52,000 | $40,000 – $114,750 | 5 |
| Mid-size homes 646–646 sq ft | $116 | $75,000 | $47,000 – $95,000 | 5 |
| Larger homes 646–798 sq ft | $169 | $135,000 | $87,500 – $150,000 | 5 |
From the live MLS feed as of 2026-10-01: 4 active listings (plus 0 pending) asking from $75,000 to $155,000, median $100,944; 1 of 4 have been on the market over 60 days (median 45 days so far); the homes listed or recently sold were built between 1972 and 1972 (median 1972); 14 of 14 listed or recently sold homes report an HOA, median $458/mo; none of the 9 geocoded listed or recently sold homes sits in a FEMA special flood hazard zone (median elevation 17 ft); the features listings here most often name are Billiard Room, Fitness Center, Clubhouse, Pool, Shuffleboard Court and Courtesy Bus. For a seller this is the competition a buyer will tour alongside your home; for a buyer, the stale share is where negotiating room usually is. See the current Dorchester Condo listings →
At Dorchester Condo’s $58,000 median and Palm Beach County’s adopted 18.72 mills (FY2025-26), a home assessed at that price carries roughly $1,090 a year in property tax before exemptions — a buyer’s first-year figure; a long-time owner’s Save Our Homes cap can be far lower, which is one reason resale taxes jump at closing. Municipal and special-district millage varies inside the county; see the Palm Beach County tax page.
Current asking prices run a median $86,888 against the $58,000 recorded sold median (+50%) — the gap between what sellers hope and what the record shows. The market is carrying about 3.6 months of supply at the current sales pace. Demand check: 0% of Dorchester Condo’s listings are under contract, against 17% for ZIP 33417 and 24% for Palm Beach County as a whole — the community is currently absorbing slower than its surroundings, which is negotiating information.
With asking prices running +50% over the recorded sold median, a Dorchester Condo listing priced against the closed record above stands out against its competition; one priced against the asking crowd joins the statewide list of homes that never sold.
