The number that defines THE ELSER right now is price per square foot: at just over $1,072, this is a per-foot cost well above typical resale housing, which tells you the unit mix here skews toward compact, high-cost-basis product rather than larger-format homes. The median price of $450,000 has to be read against that per-foot figure — smaller footprints at a high per-foot rate, not larger homes at a moderate one.
A median of 88 days on market says this is not a fast-clearing building. With only 5 closings in the current window, the sample is thin enough that any single sale can move the median meaningfully in either direction. Buyers have room to negotiate on timeline and terms; sellers need pricing that is disciplined from day one, because there is not enough transaction volume here to paper over an ask that is out of step with the comps.
The 60-Second Overview
The Elser market snapshot (as of September 20, 2026): the median sale price is about $450K ($1072 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), and a median 88 days on market for closed sales.

MIAMI REALTORS sales records identify 9 homes in THE ELSER that have changed hands since 2023, built between 2022 and 2023 (median 2022), with a median living area of about 443 sq ft and a typical 1-bedroom, 1-bath layout; 100% are condominiums.

THE ELSER prices on a per-square-foot basis well above typical resale stock, with a median sale of $450,000 and a longer-than-brisk median marketing time of 88 days — a combination that points to a smaller, higher-cost-basis unit type moving through a thin, low-volume resale market.

Who The Elser is best for.
Best for
- Buyers targeting a specific compact unit and comfortable underwriting price-per-square-foot rather than sticker price alone
- Buyers with flexible timelines who can work a longer, roughly 88-day marketing cycle to their advantage
- Sellers prepared to price precisely against recent comparables in a low-volume resale environment
Probably not for
- Buyers needing a large, high-volume comparable set to validate pricing before committing
- Buyers prioritizing maximum square footage per dollar over location or building type
- Sellers expecting a fast sale in a market currently running an 88-day median days-on-market
The The Elser buying strategy.
If we were buying in The Elser 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 The Elser.
Reading a thin resale market
Five closings is not a market trend, it is a snapshot. Any read of THE ELSER's pricing needs to account for the fact that the median figures here are built on a small number of transactions, which means comparable-unit analysis at the individual-listing level matters more here than in a building with heavier turnover.
The high price-per-square-foot figure, paired with a median sale price in the $450,000 range, is the clearest signal available: this building trades at a premium rate per foot even when the total price sits in a middle range. That combination usually points to compact floor plans or a high land/location cost basis, not to broad square footage. Buyers should verify unit size against list price before assuming what that median price actually buys. The current MLS data does not surface a defined amenity package for the building, so any amenity claims should be confirmed directly with the specific listing or the condo association rather than assumed from market-level data.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in The Elser. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
With only 5 recent closings feeding the numbers, pricing a unit at THE ELSER correctly takes more than pulling a building-wide median — it means pulling the actual comparable sales, checking unit size against that $1,072 per-square-foot benchmark, and pricing to the specific unit rather than the building average. That is the level of diligence we bring to every listing and every offer here.
