Over the recorded series, PALM COVE ESTATES’s median sold price moved from $279,500 (2015) to $502,500 (12 months ending 2026-08-02) — +80% over that span, with every year’s figure from recorded closings, not a model.
The recorded series starts in 2015 at $279,500. Against the 2024 peak of $616,500, the current median stands at -18%. Annual sales volume here has ranged from 0 to 9 closings a year (10-yr average 3). With roughly 3 closings a year, PALM COVE ESTATES’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.
What actually trades here: 100% single-family residence, with a median of 1,999 sq ft and a median price per square foot of $250 in the current window.
From the live MLS feed as of 2026-09-03: The homes listed or recently sold were built between 1989 and 2023 (median 1992); 7 of 7 listed or recently sold homes report an HOA, median $33/mo; none of the 7 geocoded listed or recently sold homes sits in a FEMA special flood hazard zone (median elevation 116 ft).

At PALM COVE ESTATES’s $502,500 median and Orange County’s adopted 16.67 mills (FY2025-26), a home assessed at that price carries roughly $8,380 a year in property tax before exemptions, or about $7,710 with the full Florida homestead exemption — 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 Orange County tax page.
Demand check: 100% of PALM COVE ESTATES’s listings are under contract, against 17% for ZIP 32835 and 26% for Orange County as a whole — the community is absorbing faster than its surroundings. Since 2004, 65 PALM COVE ESTATES listings were withdrawn, canceled, or expired without selling — overpricing is the recurring cause statewide. Over the recorded years, an average of 60% of PALM COVE ESTATES listings ended without selling (withdrawn/canceled/expired); in 2026 that rate was 0%. Momentum’s market-heat index for PALM COVE ESTATES reads 59/100 (computed from DOM, sale-to-list, and absorption; 2020–21 peaked in the 70s here).
