An affordable two-story condominium community in South Daytona, a block from the Intracoastal and minutes from downtown Daytona and the beach.
Listings before the portals, true comps, and the renovation and carrying-cost math, before you tour.
"West Winds is an affordable two-story condominium community in South Daytona, and the read is value-and-location: low-rise condos originally built as apartments and converted to ownership, a block from the Intracoastal and minutes from downtown Daytona, the bridges, and the beach. It competes on affordability and a central position rather than amenities, so the carrying cost is the assessment plus taxes and insurance. The diligence is the association budget and reserve study and confirming financeability at the lower price points."

West Winds market snapshot (as of June 25, 2026): the median sale price is about $89K ($105 per sq ft), with homes averaging 63 days on market and 4.0 months of supply, a buyer-leaning market (limited data). Based on 3 recent closings in live Daytona-area MLS data.
West Winds is a condominium community of two-story buildings in South Daytona, Volusia County, near 1800 South Palmetto Avenue (third-party listings, 2026). It was originally built as an apartment complex and later converted to condominium ownership.
It is an affordable, low-rise community a block west of the Intracoastal Waterway and a block east of US-1, a major South Daytona road. Because the public profile is modest, confirm unit sizes and prices against current listings and recent sales.
The location is central and convenient: close to downtown Daytona and Beach Street, the Memorial and Broadway bridges (the Memorial Bridge was replaced by a new high-rise span that opened in 2020), about 10 minutes to the Daytona International Airport, and roughly 15 minutes to the beachside and to I-95.
Because West Winds is a converted condominium community, buyers should center diligence on the association's finances: the reserve study, the current assessment, whether the buildings are subject to Florida's structural-inspection requirements, and financeability at the lower price points. Pull the FEMA flood zone for the specific unit before you write.
Tight supply and strong demand favor sellers here. Homes still take about two months to sell, though, and with asking prices running above recent sales per square foot, a prepared buyer has room on anything overpriced. Reading each home against the real comps, not the headline trend, is where the edge is.
Live from DBAAR, as of June 25, 2026. Refreshed twice daily. Months of supply, days on market, and the contract-to-listing ratio are computed from current West Winds listings and the trailing twelve months of closed sales.

After the 2021 Surfside collapse, Florida required milestone structural inspections and full reserve funding for qualifying condo buildings, with milestone deadlines through the end of 2024. Why it matters: For a converted condo community, ask whether the buildings are subject to the requirements and read the reserve study before you buy. Source

If we were buying in West Winds, this is the order of operations we would run, and the one we run for our clients.
Read the reserve study and budget. On a converted, older community, the assessment and reserve balance tell you your real cost; confirm them.
Confirm financeability. Affordable converted condos can face lender condo-review issues; confirm the unit and association meet your lender's requirements or plan for cash.
Confirm reserve and inspection status. Ask whether the buildings are subject to Florida structural-inspection requirements and for any inspection report.
Pull the FEMA flood zone for the unit. Near the Intracoastal, check the specific unit's zone and get an insurance quote before you write.
Confirm the rental rules. Confirm the association's minimum rental period and any cap, especially if buying as an investment.

The factors that actually move value in West Winds, condition, lot, and the renovation math, read from current listings and recent sales.
Renovated-listing inventory in West Winds is too thin right now to compute a reliable renovation premium. We read condition home by home against real comps before you offer.
In a condo the value the market gives back at resale is set by the unit, not a lot: the floor, the view line (direct versus partial), and the exposure. The interior can be renovated, but the floor and view cannot, so higher floors and better views hold their value better. How much more they command varies by building, line, and condition, which is why we read it unit by unit against real comparable sales rather than a single headline figure.
Most buyers overpay on interior lots in the back half of the community. A sharp renovation can distract you, but the weaker resale position follows the lot, not the finishes. We read the homesite before the kitchen.
Our read on the factors that protect resale here, and the one to manage.
Momentum analysis based on the community's structure, location, lot scarcity, and housing stock. Not a guarantee of future value.
The strongest value pocket is usually a renovated home on a good lot priced just under the next tier up. Buyers chasing the single biggest house often pay top prices for what is really a renovation project.
The same five mistakes cost buyers the most in any market. Every one is avoidable with the right preparation before you tour.
1The agent on the sign works for the seller. In a market where condition swings price by hundreds of thousands, negotiating against that agent with no one in your corner is the costliest move of all.
2A dated home looks like a deal until you price the roof, HVAC, pool, and full modernization honestly. Underbudget the reno and the bargain becomes the expensive house.
3A premium homesite (water, preserve, or a preferred position) carries a real, durable premium. Pay a top price for an interior lot and you are buying the weakest version of the value.
4Two similar homes can cost very differently to own once the HOA, any CDD, insurance, and upkeep are priced in. Buyers who do not run the full monthly carrying cost misread the real number.
5An older home means older systems unless updated. Roof age, HVAC age, pool equipment, and prior renovations drive both price and insurability, and a thorough inspection matters more here than in a new build.
Affordability and the central South Daytona location near the Intracoastal are the draw at West Winds. The deal is in the reserves and the assessment, and in confirming financeability, not in the low sticker.
Our proprietary 0 to 10 read across the five factors that decide how a home here buys, holds, and resells.
Momentum Intelligence Scores are our proprietary, qualitative assessment based on the analysis on this page, on a 0 to 10 scale. They are a framework for comparing communities, not a guarantee of future value or advice on a specific home.
Most pages on this community are an automated estimate wrapped in stock copy. This one is built from the live DBAAR feed, fourteen years of closed sales, and a renovation-by-renovation read of what actually moves value here, lot by lot. No Zestimate, no guesswork.
Where the value actually sits. Each home is shaded by its price per square foot (a value read, not just a price) and ringed by lot type, so you can see at a glance which pockets carry a real, durable premium and where a renovation play makes sense.
Fill = price per square foot; ring = by realized $/sqft per unit. Sold homes are shown by realized $/sqft (lot type not always recorded). Asking and recent-sold figures from DBAAR; for orientation, not an appraisal.
There is no individual lot at West Winds; price is set by condition, position, and the association's financial health. Updated units command a modest premium over dated ones. Because it is a converted, older community, the reserve study, assessment, and financeability weigh on value, so compare a unit against the closest comparable in the community rather than a broad South Daytona average.
West Winds carries a condominium association assessment that funds the buildings, common areas, and insurance. We do not publish a dues figure we have not verified; ask the association for the current assessment, the reserve study, and any pending special assessment for the specific unit, which matters on a converted community.
The assessment funds building and grounds maintenance, common areas, and insurance; confirm exact inclusions in the current budget.
There is no golf or private club; this is an affordable, low-rise condo community without a resort amenity set. Confirm any pool or shared amenity with the association.

Selling here is won on condition and view, not the Zestimate. The right number comes from closed comps matched to your renovation level and lot.
Your buyer is cross-shopping the other affordable South Daytona condos, so sell what is specific and verifiable: your unit's condition and updates, the assessment and reserve health, financeability, and the central location.
Sold-to-list and days-on-market figures reflect Momentum Realty listings versus the Jacksonville metro average, year to date. Your home's result depends on pricing, condition, lot, view, and preparation.
Because buyers here are weighing your home against renovated comps and cross-shopping Harborside, a home priced to the community average instead of its true condition and view either leaves money on the table or sits. A renovated kitchen, newer roof and HVAC, and a golf or lake view all deserve to show up in your price, and a buyer pool reading renovation math needs to be shown why your home is worth it. We build that case with real comps and a pricing strategy for the current market.
