There is no median price, no sales window, and no closing activity to cite for Sunset Trace here as of mid-July 2026 — the current MLS snapshot shows nothing on the market and no recent closings. That silence is itself the read: pricing in a small Palm City pocket like this gets set almost entirely by whatever handful of homes actually list, and right now there are none. Condition and updates will drive value more than any published number, because there is no active comp to anchor to.
For a buyer, that means patience and a broker willing to work off-market and off older sales rather than a live listing. For a seller, it means you may be the price-setter rather than a price-taker — an opportunity, but one that demands careful comp work since there is no current inventory to reference. Move deliberately in either direction.
Sunset Trace right now
🟡 Balanced market. 3.0 months of supply and 50% 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 September 20, 2026. Confidence: Low (2 active and pending listings, 2 closed sales in 12 months).

The Sunset Trace buying strategy.
If we were buying in Sunset Trace 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 Sunset Trace.
A quiet pocket with no live data
What we can say honestly is limited by what the feed shows. No community amenities surface from current listings, which points to a straightforward residential setting rather than an amenity-driven one — buyers who want a clubhouse, gate, or shared recreation should look elsewhere or confirm what any specific home actually conveys.
The location does the heavy lifting here: Palm City sits in Martin County, convenient to the broader Treasure Coast and its beaches feed. Beyond location, the buying decision comes down to the individual home — its condition, lot, and updates — because there is no community-level price signal to lean on right now.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Sunset Trace. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
A pocket this quiet, with no active listings and no recent closings to cite, is exactly where a local broker earns their keep. We work the older sales, the off-market conversations, and the condition details that actually set value here — instead of pretending a number exists when it does not.

What it really costs to own in Sunset Trace
The parts of the monthly number a mortgage calculator leaves out, from the tax roll, the MLS, Citizens and FEMA. Property facts only.
| Property tax | Current owners' bills run a median of $2,714/yr across 4 listings here (MLS tax records, 2026-10-16). |
|---|---|
| HOA dues | Median $640/month across 69 MLS listings (most billed monthly; 2026-10-15). Dues cover what the documents say they cover; ask for the budget and reserve study. |
| Home and flood insurance | The average Citizens Property Insurance premium in Martin County is $2,580/yr (1,552 policies, Citizens detail by county, April 2026); private-market quotes depend on roof age, wind mitigation and construction. |
| Roof and age | Median build year 1984 across 4 listings. An original roof here would be about 42 years old; under Florida's 2022 reform (SB 2-D) carriers may require an inspection past 15 years, so budget for a roof report, and for replacement where it fails. |

Martin County approves limited-industrial zoning on Southeast Powerline Avenue in Hobe Sound
Commissioners voted 3-2 to rezone a property along Southeast Powerline Avenue to limited-industrial, a less intensive class than the general industrial designation first proposed. The county said the existing zoning was outdated and that no data center is planned. Any proposal over 100,000 square feet would need board approval.
What it may mean for the marketLimited-industrial zoning could add light industrial space and local jobs in Hobe Sound while capping the scale of future uses. The site is about 5 miles southeast of Sunset Trace Ph 01 Md 06.

What it may mean for the marketBridge replacement funding supports a key rail and river crossing, while the denied grant leaves the timing of a Stuart passenger rail stop uncertain. The site is about 7 miles north of Sunset Trace Ph 01 Md 06.
