Market Heat

W C Maloney Diagram sits inside Key West, where land scarcity and historic fabric are the primary price drivers. A median price just over $1.2 million on a median living footprint of roughly 1,380 square feet tells you this market is not about size — it is about location, lot position, and the irreplaceable character of structures that span from 1889 to 2024, with a median build year of 1938. Buyers here are paying for Key West address and architectural provenance, not square footage.
The current market posture is worth reading carefully. A median of eight days on market signals that well-priced inventory still moves with urgency, but a year-over-year price shift of negative 30.6 percent — drawn from only four closings in the measurement window — is a thin data set and should not be treated as a trend. With a market heat score of 46 and just under 36 percent of homes carrying a homestead exemption, this subdivision skews meaningfully toward non-primary use. Sellers need accurate, current comps; buyers should not assume the price decline is structural without deeper due diligence.

W C MALONEY DIAGRAM is a community of 459 homes in Key West, Monroe County, built between 1889 and 2024 (median 1938.0), with a median living area of about 1,380 square feet. 36% of parcels are homesteaded, the owner-occupancy proxy in the Florida DOR assessment roll (2025 roll, public records).
W C Maloney Diagram is a platted Key West community of 459 homes whose building stock stretches back to the late nineteenth century, placing most of its value in historic fabric and Monroe County location rather than in modern construction or size. The combination of sub-two-week absorption and a majority of homes held outside homestead status reflects the investment and vacation-use dynamics common to the Florida Keys market.
Who W C MALONEY DIAGRAM is best for.
Best for
- A buyer with a budget comfortably above the $1,232,500 median who intends to hold long-term and understands Keys insurance and flood-zone carrying costs.
- An investor or second-home buyer seeking a non-primary-use property in a historically significant Key West plat, with capacity for deferred-maintenance risk on older stock.
- A seller holding a renovated, well-documented home who wants to test a market where correctly priced inventory can move in under two weeks.
Probably not for
- A buyer who needs to stretch to the median price point and has not fully modeled wind and flood insurance costs into their monthly budget.
- Anyone requiring volume comparables or pricing certainty — four closings in the measurement window does not support high-confidence valuation without additional data.
- A buyer expecting a large modern home for the price; median living area is roughly 1,380 square feet, and the value proposition here is location and history, not size.
Price History: What Homes Here Have Actually Sold For
Median sale price over the trailing 12 months ending July 27 of each year, from record-level floridakeys closed sales. Same methodology as every appreciation figure on this page: the 2026 point ($1.23M) IS the median in the snapshot above, and the move from 2025 ($1.78M) IS the -30.6% one-year change.

The W C MALONEY DIAGRAM buying strategy.
If we were buying in W C MALONEY DIAGRAM 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 W C MALONEY DIAGRAM.
Historic Stock, Thin Liquidity, Real Complexity
The year-built range of 1889 through 2024 is one of the widest you will encounter in a single Monroe County plat. That spread means condition variance is extreme — a fully renovated Conch cottage and a deferred-maintenance vernacular home can exist on the same block, and the median price of $1,232,500 is an average of very different assets. Buyers who anchor to that median without accounting for condition, elevation certificate status, flood zone designation, and insurance exposure risk a significant mispricing. In the Keys, carrying costs tied to wind and flood coverage can materially change the economics of any individual purchase.
Only four closings underpin the current snapshot, which limits statistical reliability. Eight days median days-on-market could reflect genuine demand compression or simply that very few homes came to market and the motivated ones sold quickly. The market heat score of 46 places this community in a neutral-to-soft posture — not a seller's market by definition, but not distressed either. Anyone transacting here, on either side, should be working from actual recent closed data and should not extrapolate the year-over-year percentage change without understanding the small sample behind it.
