Market Heat
Kokomo Key sits in Delray Beach, and at a median of $439K and $352/ft², it occupies an unusual middle ground for Palm Beach County. The market here is brisk—homes move in three weeks—but the heat score of 33 tells you this is not a feeding frenzy. Five closings in the window is a small sample, so treat the median as indicative rather than predictive; condition and lot premium will swing individual transactions considerably.
Year-over-year appreciation of 4.5% is modest, but the fourteen-year cumulative gain of 158% reminds you that this neighborhood recovered fully and then some from the last cycle. For sellers, 22 days on market means pricing discipline matters; for buyers, you have time to inspect and negotiate without the pressure that defines hotter enclaves closer to the coast.

The 60-Second Overview
Kokomo Key market snapshot (as of July 15, 2026): the median sale price is about $439K ($352 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), and a median 22 days on market for closed sales. The trailing-12-month median is up 4% from the prior 12 months and up 158% since 2012, computed from record-level Beaches MLS closed sales (5 closings in the current window).
A small Delray Beach enclave where turnover is limited, inventory is thin, and the median hovers in the low-to-mid four hundreds—well below Palm Beach County's luxury tier but above entry-level sprawl.
Who Kokomo Key is best for.
Best for
- Buyers with a budget near the median who value Delray's downtown, dining, and beach access over on-site amenities.
- Investors or owner-occupants comfortable buying a dated interior and managing renovation themselves to capture spread between basis and improved value.
- Households prioritizing low HOA overhead and the freedom to modify landscaping, facade, or layout without architectural review.
Probably not for
- Buyers who need a gated community, clubhouse, or programmed social calendar—nothing here suggests that infrastructure.
- Flippers counting on six-month velocity; 22 days on market is healthy but not hyperactive, and thin inventory limits your exit menu.
- Anyone who requires ten identical comps to feel confident in valuation—five closings means you will be underwriting on feel and forensic comp work, not statistical density.
Price History: What Homes Here Have Actually Sold For
Median sale price over the trailing 12 months ending July 15 of each year, from record-level Beaches MLS closed sales. Same methodology as every appreciation figure on this page: the 2026 point ($439K) IS the median in the snapshot above, and the move from 2025 ($420K) IS the +4.5% one-year change.

The Kokomo Key buying strategy.
If we were buying in Kokomo Key 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 Kokomo Key.
What you are actually buying
Kokomo Key does not advertise formal amenities in MLS data, which usually means it is a platted residential neighborhood rather than a master-plan or gated community. That simplicity appeals to buyers who want Delray's address and walkability without HOA programming or clubhouse dues. The trade-off: you are buying location and home, not resort infrastructure.
The price per square foot—$352—lands you in the middle of Palm Beach's condo-alternative zone. Expect a mix of older Florida ranch layouts and some updated two-story plans. With only five closings in the recent window, every sale moves the median; if you are evaluating an offer or listing, pull every comp yourself and adjust for renovations, lot size, and pool. The 22-day DOM suggests buyers show up but do their homework first.
The long-term appreciation story is real: 158% since 2012 is a full recovery plus growth. But the current 4.5% year-over-year gain is in line with regional inflation, not acceleration. Translation: stable, not speculative. If you need forced equity in twelve months, this is not that market. If you want a Delray address at a four-hundred-thousand-dollar basis with room to improve the home yourself, Kokomo Key delivers.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Kokomo Key. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
