The Commodore
Homes for Sale in Fort Lauderdale, FL

The Commodore market snapshot (as of July 15, 2026): the median sale price is about $530K ($379 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), and a median 150 days on market for closed sales. The trailing-12-month median is up 18% from the prior 12 months and up 56% since 2012, computed from record-level Beaches MLS closed sales (7 closings in the current window).

The Commodore is a Fort Lauderdale condo tower where the median price sits at $530,000 and the median time on market stretches to 150 days — a building where location and condition drive value, and where patient buyers and realistic sellers tend to do best.

Pricing in The Commodore reflects unit-level specifics more than any blanket building premium. Floor height, view corridor (Intracoastal, ocean sliver, or urban), and interior updates create wide spreads within the same floor plan. The $530,000 median and $378.72 per square foot tell you this is mid-tier Fort Lauderdale condo territory — not luxury, not entry-level — where buyers expect clean interiors and functional layouts without paying for full-service resort amenities.

The 150-day median absorption is the headline here. In a faster market, that number would signal distress; in The Commodore, it reflects a building where inventory turns slowly, buyers take their time, and sellers who overprice pay a steep time cost. The building has no identified shared amenities flagged in current listings, so the pitch is location and the unit itself — Fort Lauderdale access, not resort living. That works for a specific buyer, but it means every listing competes on price and condition alone.

Appreciation has been steady — 17.8% year-over-year and 56% since 2012 — but that gain is realized only at closing. The slow pace means sellers cannot assume multiple offers or quick exits. For buyers, the upside is negotiating room and time to inspect; the downside is that comparable data is thin when only a handful of units close in a given quarter. If you are financing, make sure your lender understands the building's turnover pace.

In a building where absorption is slow and every unit's value hinges on floor, view, and condition, you need a broker who prices based on closed comps — not wishful thinking — and who knows when to walk away from a listing that will sit for months. Momentum brings condo-specific comp discipline, lender relationships that understand Fort Lauderdale's quirks, and the honesty to tell you when another building offers better value. We do not chase every lead; we close the deals that make sense.

Confirm the current HOA dues, exactly what they cover, and any CDD bond or special assessment for a specific address before you offer.
