Over the 12 months ending 2026-09-12, 3 recorded sales closed at a median of $750,000, $441 per square foot, a median 1 days on market, sellers accepting 100% of original asking. Homes listed or recently sold were built 1968–1971. At the median price and Palm Beach County's FY2025-26 rate of 18.72 mills, annual property tax runs about $14,040 ($13,270 with the full homestead exemption).

University Heights Add is a small pocket inside Boca Raton, and with only a one-closing window in this snapshot, there isn't enough recent transaction volume to draw a hard price line. What that means practically: value here is set property by property, not by a broad community trend. Condition, lot, and the specifics of each home will move the number far more than any neighborhood-wide average would.
For a buyer, thin recent activity cuts both ways — less comparable data to lean on, but also less competition on any given listing. For a seller, pricing has to be built from the ground up on the individual home rather than a stack of recent neighbor sales. In a market this quiet, getting the read right at listing time matters more than usual.

This is a smaller residential enclave within Boca Raton in Palm Beach County, without amenities identified in current MLS listings — so the draw here is location and the homes themselves, not shared community features.

The University Heights buying strategy.
If we were buying in University Heights 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 University Heights.
A data-thin pocket that trades on its homes
With no community amenities surfacing from current listings, University Heights Add is best understood as a plain residential address in Boca Raton rather than an amenitized development. That's not a knock — it means you're buying a house and a location, and you should evaluate both on their own terms rather than paying for a clubhouse or gate that isn't here.
The single-closing window is the headline caveat. There simply isn't a deep pool of recent sales to anchor pricing, so both sides should expect to do more work establishing value: recent nearby comparables, careful condition assessment, and realistic time-on-market expectations. Treat any single data point here as a starting question, not an answer.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in University Heights. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
