West Lakes Gardens 1st Ad is pricing on a per-square-foot basis right now, with a median of $331.64 per square foot behind the $735,000 median sale price. With only three closings in the current window, that median is a useful marker but not a statistically deep one — a single unusual sale can move it more than it would in a higher-volume community.
Prices are down slightly year over year (-2.0%), and homes are taking just over 30 days to go under contract. That combination reads as a market that has cooled from its peak pace but hasn't slowed to a crawl — it's a moderate, negotiable market rather than a frantic or stalled one.

🟡 Off the recent peak. The trailing-12-month median ($735K) is down 2.0% from the prior 12 months ($750K). With about 2 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 miami closed sales, 12-month windows ending July 20. Confidence: Low (3 and 3 sales in the two windows).

The 60-Second Overview
WEST LAKES GARDENS 1ST AD market snapshot (as of July 20, 2026): the median sale price is about $735K ($332 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), and a median 32 days on market for closed sales. The trailing-12-month median is down 2% from the prior 12 months, computed from record-level miami closed sales (3 closings in the current window).
A low-volume Miami-Dade market where the median sale price sits at $735,000 and per-square-foot pricing runs an important second signal alongside it, given how few closings are setting the tone.
Who WEST LAKES GARDENS 1ST AD is best for.
Best for
- Buyers targeting a purchase near the mid-$700s who are comfortable evaluating price on a per-square-foot basis given the limited comparable count
- Buyers with flexible timelines who can use a moderate, just-over-30-day market pace to negotiate rather than compete
- Sellers prepared to price carefully against a thin recent-sales record rather than relying on a single benchmark number
Probably not for
- Buyers who want a large recent-sales history to validate price before committing
- Anyone expecting listed community amenities, since none are currently identified from MLS data
- Buyers seeking a fast-moving, high-volume market with abundant recent closings to compare
Price History: What Homes Here Have Actually Sold For
Median sale price over the trailing 12 months ending July 20 of each year, from record-level miami closed sales. Same methodology as every appreciation figure on this page: the 2026 point ($735K) IS the median in the snapshot above, and the move from 2025 ($750K) IS the -2.0% one-year change.
Windows contain 0 to 5 sales each (3 in the current window); every figure carries its sample size, and thin markets swing on single closings. Based on information from the Southeast Florida Multiple Listing Service (SEFMLS) or from MIAMI Association of REALTORS(R) for the period 2012 through 2026. Deemed reliable but not guaranteed.

The WEST LAKES GARDENS 1ST AD buying strategy.
If we were buying in WEST LAKES GARDENS 1ST AD 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 WEST LAKES GARDENS 1ST AD.
Reading a thin data set
With just three closings in the current window, West Lakes Gardens 1st Ad isn't a community where you can lean hard on a single median figure. The $735,000 median and $331.64 per-square-foot median are both real, but they represent a small sample — condition, lot, and finish level on any one property can swing the comparable math more than they would in a community with a deeper closing count.
The -2.0% year-over-year change and a median 32-day time to contract suggest a market that has softened modestly rather than reversed. That's consistent with a segment where sellers still have room to price with some confidence, but buyers have enough time on market to negotiate rather than compete blind.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in WEST LAKES GARDENS 1ST AD. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
In a market this thin on closings, the per-square-foot number matters as much as the headline median — we pull the actual comparable sales behind both figures before advising on price, rather than treating a three-sale average as gospel in either direction.
