Plat No 1 Opa Locka is a low-volume market — nine closings in the current window — so every sale moves the numbers more than it would in a larger community. The median price sits at $499,000, with price per square foot at $379.65, and a 30.5% year-over-year change that reflects how few transactions it takes to swing the average when the pool is this small.
A median of 43 days on market and a market heat score of 47 point to a steady, unhurried pace rather than a bidding-war environment. Sellers should price to the comparable that actually matches their home's condition and size, not to the headline year-over-year number, and buyers have room to negotiate on terms and timeline rather than racing a clock.
Figures in this note are as of July 21, 2026. The live market numbers elsewhere on this page update nightly and are newer.

🟢 Buyer-leaning market. 28.0 months of supply and 30% of the inventory already under contract give buyers above-average negotiating leverage.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 MIAMI MLS records, as of November 10, 2026. Confidence: Medium (10 active and pending listings, 3 closed sales in 12 months).

The 60-Second Overview
Plat market snapshot (as of November 10, 2026): the median sale price is about $555K ($500 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), a median 69 days on market for closed sales, and 28.0 months of supply, a buyer-leaning market.
This is a small, closely watched pocket of the Miami-Dade market where a handful of transactions sets the tone — meaning both list price and offer strategy should be built around the specific home, not the neighborhood average.

Who Plat is best for.
Best for
- Buyers targeting a specific home rather than shopping a broad, comparable-rich subdivision
- Sellers whose home's condition supports a price near or above the current $499,000 median
- Buyers willing to do extra diligence on recent closed comps given the small sample size
Probably not for
- Buyers who want a large set of recent sales to benchmark price against
- Sellers expecting a fast, competitive-offer environment given the market heat score of 47
- Buyers seeking a community with established shared amenities, since none are currently identified in MLS listings
The Plat buying strategy.
If we were buying in Plat 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.
Use your leverage. With inventory sitting, there is room to negotiate on anything dated or overpriced and to ask for repairs or a rate buydown.
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 Plat.
Reading a thin market correctly
With only nine closings feeding the current snapshot, Plat No 1 Opa Locka doesn't behave like a high-volume subdivision with a tight, predictable price band. The $499,000 median and $379.65 per-square-foot figure are real, but they represent a small sample — the kind of market where one larger or smaller sale, or one home in notably different condition, can shift the median meaningfully in the next reporting window.
The 30.5% year-over-year change should be read in that context: it's a real data point, but in a thin market it's as likely to reflect a change in what sold — size, condition, or exact micro-location — as a broad shift in what everything here is worth. No community amenities are identified from current MLS listings, so value here is being driven by the individual homes and lots themselves rather than shared infrastructure.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Plat. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
In a market this thin, pulling the right comparables matters more than reciting an average. We look at the actual closed sales behind the median — condition, size, timing — so sellers price accurately and buyers know when a listing is genuinely in line with the market versus an outlier.
