Over the recorded series, Sandalwood Estates’s median sold price moved from $98,950 (2012) to $330,250 (12 months ending 2026-09-20) — +234% over that span, with every year’s figure from recorded closings, not a model.
The recorded series starts in 2012 at $98,950. The 2020–22 run-up did what it did everywhere — Sandalwood Estates’s median moved +32% from 2019 to 2022. Against the 2024 peak of $349,000, the current median stands at -5%. Annual sales volume here has ranged from 9 to 33 closings a year (10-yr average 20.8).
Of the 41 recorded Sandalwood Estates closings since 2024, half landed between $328,500 and $350,000 (the middle two quartiles); the lowest recorded sale was $260,000 and the highest $365,000. 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 $325,000 | 8 (20%) | |
| $325,000 – $333,333 | 7 (17%) | |
| $333,333 – $341,667 | 9 (22%) | |
| $341,667 – $350,000 | 6 (15%) | |
| None and up | 11 (27%) |
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. Smaller homes here have been selling at a higher price per square foot than larger ones ($281 vs $268) — the usual pattern, since lot, kitchen and baths do not scale with floor area.
| Size group | Median $/sqft | Median sold | Sold range | Sales |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Smaller homes 1,236–1,236 sq ft | $281 | $347,000 | $260,000 – $365,000 | 13 |
| Mid-size homes 1,236–1,236 sq ft | $279 | $345,000 | $309,000 – $355,000 | 13 |
| Larger homes 1,236–1,236 sq ft | $268 | $331,500 | $299,000 – $342,500 | 15 |

At Sandalwood Estates’s $330,250 median and Palm Beach County’s adopted 18.72 mills (FY2025-26), a home assessed at that price carries roughly $6,180 a year in property tax before exemptions, or about $5,410 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 Palm Beach County tax page.
Current asking prices run a median $350,000 against the $330,250 recorded sold median (+6%) — the gap between what sellers hope and what the record shows. The market is carrying about 1 months of supply at the current sales pace. Demand check: 50% of Sandalwood Estates’s listings are under contract, against 31% for ZIP 33408 and 24% for Palm Beach County as a whole — the community is absorbing faster than its surroundings. Momentum’s market-heat index for Sandalwood Estates reads 12/100 (computed from DOM, sale-to-list, and absorption; 2020–21 peaked in the 70s here).
Asking and recorded sold prices are within a few percent of each other here, so the table above is close to what a Sandalwood Estates buyer will actually pay; the spread on any single home comes down to size, condition and timing.
