LAKE IDA right now
🟡 Balanced market. 6.0 months of supply and 0% of the inventory already under contract put buyers and sellers on roughly even footing.Why it matters: months of supply is how long today's inventory would last at today's sales pace; under-contract share is the portion of homes for sale that already have a buyer.Momentum Research analysis of Beaches MLS records, as of August 10, 2026. Confidence: Medium (4 active and pending listings, 9 closed sales in 12 months).
🟡 Still climbing. The trailing-12-month median ($2.08M) is up 2.5% from the prior 12 months ($2.03M) and up 422% since 2012. With about a dozen 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 Beaches MLS closed sales, 12-month windows ending August 10. Confidence: Medium (9 and 8 sales in the two windows).

Price History: What Homes Here Have Actually Sold For
Median sale price over the trailing 12 months ending August 10 of each year, from record-level Beaches MLS closed sales. Same methodology as every appreciation figure on this page: the 2026 point ($2.08M) IS the median in the snapshot above, and the move from 2025 ($2.03M) IS the +2.5% one-year change.
Windows contain 6 to 18 sales each (9 in the current window); every figure carries its sample size, and thin markets swing on single closings.

Check it for your address: look up your flood zone (FEMA) · insurance by county · true-cost calculator · Palm Beach County scorecard.
County typicals from Momentum’s Florida housing data (Zillow & Realtor.com aggregates, Census, FRED), updated monthly; insurance modeled. Flood zone is property-specific — always confirm via FEMA.

The LAKE IDA buying strategy.
If we were buying in LAKE IDA 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 LAKE IDA.
A closer look at the LAKE IDA market
At a median of $964 per square foot, LAKE IDA prices sit in a fairly defined band, so condition and updates — more than the list price — tend to separate one home from the next.
Inventory runs at 6.0 months of supply, a balanced market and the trailing-12-month median up 2% year over year. Homes that do trade take a median 36 days on market, useful leverage on any listing that has lingered.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in LAKE IDA. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.

Basis: Long-Term Appreciation +422% since 2012; Recent Direction +2.5% year-over-year; Liquidity & Demand 6.0 months of supply; Pricing Power 91.1% sale-to-list. Refreshed with each data update.
