Market Heat
Portside Condo is a single-vintage building where every unit dates to 1984 and runs around 1,120 square feet. When the age and size are that uniform, price is driven almost entirely by condition and interior updates rather than floor plan or square footage. The median sits at $260,000, but treat that as a midpoint across a wide condition-driven spread, not a sticker price for any given unit.
The current posture favors a patient buyer. Days on market run to roughly 77 and a half, values are down 8.8% year over year, and the heat score of 23 points to a slow, negotiable market. Sellers should price to condition and expect the listing to sit; buyers have room to be selective and to make offers that reflect what still needs work.

Who Portside Condo is best for.
Best for
- Second-home buyers who want a lock-and-leave coastal condo and can move at a deliberate pace
- Investors comfortable with a rental-oriented building who will verify association rules and reserves first
- Value-minded buyers targeting an already-updated unit priced near or below the $260,000 median
Probably not for
- Buyers who need more than roughly 1,120 square feet or newer-than-1984 construction
- Sellers who need a fast sale, since units here tend to sit near 77 to 78 days
- Anyone counting on quick, guaranteed resale gains in a market currently down 8.8% year over year
Price History: What Homes Here Have Actually Sold For
Median sale price over the trailing 12 months ending July 28 of each year, from record-level cpar closed sales. Same methodology as every appreciation figure on this page: the 2026 point ($260K) IS the median in the snapshot above, and the move from 2025 ($285K) IS the -8.8% one-year change.
Windows contain 2 to 30 sales each (12 in the current window); every figure carries its sample size, and thin markets swing on single closings.

The Portside Condo buying strategy.
If we were buying in Portside Condo 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 Portside Condo.
One vintage, one footprint
With every unit built in 1984 and a median living area near 1,120 square feet, this is not a place you shop for size or newness. You shop for what has been done inside — kitchens, baths, flooring, HVAC and impact glass. Two units at the same asking price can be very different buys, so a walk-through and a hard look at recent updates matter more than the headline number.
None of the tracked units carry a homestead exemption, which is consistent with a coastal building oriented toward second-home and rental use rather than year-round owner occupancy. No community amenities surfaced in the current MLS listings, so verify what the association actually provides — pool, parking, exterior maintenance, reserves — before you assume anything. With a small sample of twelve closings, a single sale can swing the median, so read comps unit by unit.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Portside Condo. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
