The Sanctuary right now

🟢 Buyer-leaning market. 16.0 months of supply and 0% 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 Beaches MLS records, as of August 10, 2026. Confidence: Medium (4 active and pending listings, 3 closed sales in 12 months).

🔴 Off the recent peak. The trailing-12-month median ($3.99M) is down 45.3% from the prior 12 months ($7.30M). With about 5 sales a year, a single closing can swing this number, so read the level and the decade, not one year's move.Momentum Research, record-level Beaches MLS closed sales, 12-month windows ending August 10. Confidence: Low (3 and 3 sales in the two windows).

What's unique here: the median sale price is about 9x the typical Palm Beach County sale ($3.99M vs $460K, trailing 12 months, Beaches MLS records).

If we were buying in The Sanctuary today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.

1

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.

2

Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.

3

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.

4

Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.

5

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 Sanctuary.

A closer look at the The Sanctuary market

At a median of $472 per square foot, The Sanctuary prices sit in a fairly defined band, so condition and updates — more than the list price — tend to separate one home from the next.

Inventory runs at 16.0 months of supply, a buyer-leaning market and the trailing-12-month median down 45% year over year. Homes that do trade take a median 132 days on market, useful leverage on any listing that has lingered.

The housing stock is 54 homes built between 1979 and 2024, and 54% of parcels are homesteaded — the owner-occupancy proxy in the Florida DOR assessment roll.

The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in The Sanctuary. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
