Wilton Manors
Homes for Sale in Fort Lauderdale, FL

Wilton Manors market snapshot (as of July 15, 2026): the median sale price is about $1.07M ($525 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), and a median 39 days on market for closed sales. The trailing-12-month median is up 23% from the prior 12 months and up 294% since 2012, computed from record-level Beaches MLS closed sales (14 closings in the current window).

Wilton Manors is a compact, urbanized enclave in central Broward County where walkability, Intracoastal access, and constrained supply have pushed the median to $1.065M and per-foot pricing to $525.

The $1.065M median sits atop a 294% gain since 2012, a trajectory driven by both macro South Florida appreciation and micro factors specific to Wilton Manors: limited developable land, zoning that favors preservation of single-family character in most pockets, and a commercial core that draws foot traffic without requiring a car for daily errands. The city spans roughly one square mile, so new inventory is largely teardown-and-rebuild or gut renovation, not greenfield subdivision.

At $525/ft², buyers pay for location and walkability as much as house. Homes near Wilton Drive or backing to water channels command the tightest spreads; older stock on interior lots offers relative value but often carries deferred maintenance or layout compromises. Thirty-nine days on market reflects typical urban turnover—not lightning speed, but faster than suburban Broward—and the 23.4% year-over-year move suggests sellers are testing higher. With only fourteen closings in the period, low sample size means one or two luxury sales can lift the median significantly; context and comps matter more here than in high-volume subdivisions.

The market-heat score of 44 is middling by coastal-Florida standards, a function of price point filtering the buyer pool and inventory staying lean. This is not a frenzy market, but it is not soft either—well-priced listings with updates move, while overpriced or dated homes sit. Buyers should expect negotiation room to shrink on turnkey product and widen on fixer stock.

Wilton Manors rewards local intel: which blocks flood, which see teardown activity, which sellers will negotiate and which won't. Our agents track every comp, know the permitting landscape for additions and ADUs, and can walk you through flood-zone maps and insurance realities before you write an offer. In a fourteen-closing sample size, one bad comp tanks your appraisal—we make sure you don't become that cautionary tale. We also represent sellers who need fast, clean execution in a market where days-on-market perception still matters.

Confirm the current HOA dues, exactly what they cover, and any CDD bond or special assessment for a specific address before you offer.
