How is the Treasure Coast ZIP heat map built?
The Market Pulse heat map for the BeachesMLS feed counts single-family closings from August through October 2026 in ZIPs with at least 15 sales. For each ZIP it reports closings, median sale price, median days on market and the share of houses that sold above their original list price. Ten St. Lucie ZIPs account for 1,240 house sales over the three months and seven Martin ZIPs for 472. Indian River County is not part of this feed, so Vero Beach and Sebastian are not on the map.

Limitations
ZIP figures are trailing three months (August to October 2026), single-family homes only, for ZIPs with at least 15 closings; county rows are October 2026 alone. Place names follow the city most often recorded in each ZIP's sales, and area descriptions are general. The feed covers St. Lucie and Martin but not Indian River County, and sales placed only in other MLSs are not counted. Small ZIPs of 15 to 40 sales can swing from one quarter to the next. Above-list share compares the sale price with the original list price. Information is deemed reliable but not guaranteed.
