Retained sample n=223, after exclusions and each geography's p1/p99 trim.

For buyers and sellers: Use the sample as a comparison, not a unit-specific budget. Ask for the association budget, current fees, coverage and special assessments; a listing does not verify them.

Two fees of $363 are not the same fee if one includes building insurance, water and a reserve contribution and the other does not. Compare coverage first, dollars second. Where the MLS record leaves the field blank the listing is simply not counted here.

Displayed development groups within the retained city sample after exclusions and trimming, capped at 60. This is not a census of all communities. Names are normalized MLS text and may split or combine spelling variants. Fewer than 10 is anecdotal; 10–29 requires caution. Flags use retained records in each group. Main fee medians and retained counts remain shown; group fee-per-area, construction-year and asking-price medians are withheld (—) because their separate qualifying counts are unavailable, not because those values are proven wrong.

What should a buyer or seller do with these numbers?
Buyers
- Use $363 a month, or $0.38 per square foot, as the Homestead midpoint; ask why a unit sits far outside $328 to $537.
- Ask for three documents before you fall in love: the current budget, the reserve study, and the latest milestone or structural report. 4% of Homestead listings bring up a special assessment on their own.
- If the community has a master association, confirm both layers are in the quoted fee; 0.9% of Homestead listings show two.
Sellers
- State the fee, its billing cycle and what it covers in the listing; buyers compare against this page and against 223 other Homestead listings.
- If an assessment is paid or none is pending, say so plainly; 2.7% of your competition already does.
- A fee above $537 is not a defect if the coverage justifies it; list the coverage.
Media writers
- Angle: Homestead condo fees run 55% below the five-county median ($363 vs $800); 0% of listings ask $1,000 or more. Post-2005 buildings ask 7% less than pre-1995 ones.

Questions people actually ask about Homestead condo fees
What is the median fee in Homestead?
As of October 18, 2026, the median monthly-equivalent fee for Homestead condominiums is $363 in the retained usable-fee sample after exclusions and percentile trimming: 223 retained of 228 active listings (227 valid fees before trimming). 25th and 75th percentiles: $328 and $537. 0% have fees of $1,000 or more; 68.6% are below $500. These are recorded fees, not verified payments.
How are fee frequencies and association layers handled?
Within the retained sample after exclusions and percentile trimming, 0% have quarterly frequency. Quarterly fees are divided by three, semiannual by six and annual by twelve. Usable MLS fee layers are summed. 2 of 223 retained listings (0.9%) have a second layer. Unusable fee records are excluded rather than assigning a missing frequency.
What does the fee cover, and are assessment mentions verified?
Within the retained sample after exclusions and percentile trimming, 193 listings record at least one coverage item: Common areas: 68.9%; Grounds: 48.2%; Structure maintenance: 45.1%; Security: 40.4%; Trash: 25.9%; Recreation facilities: 25.4%. Coverage shares use that denominator. Assessment mentions are 9 of 223 retained listings (4%), classified by keywords; no charges inferred from remarks are added to the fee. A blank field does not verify absence. Ask the association for current budget, coverage and charges.
How do fees compare by recorded construction year?
In Homestead's retained usable-fee sample after exclusions and percentile trimming, 127 listings recorded as built in 2005 or later have a median monthly fee of $363; 54 recorded as built before 1995 have a median of $392. Groups of 10–29 require caution. This does not identify the cause of a difference.
Which denominators and date apply?
Fee statistics describe the retained usable-fee sample after exclusions and percentile trimming, not every property for sale. Monthly-equivalent fees below the 1st or above the 99th percentile are excluded within each geographic sample. City, county and five-county samples are trimmed separately; the region is not a median of city medians. Publication requires 30 valid-fee listings before trimming; retained n is stated separately. A city with 30–39 valid-fee listings is a small sample. Secondary measures use further qualifying fields and their own denominators. Retained sample n=223, after exclusions and each geography's p1/p99 trim. Year, area and price measures require usable fields: fee per area uses LivingArea ≥300, n=222; annual fee/price uses ListPrice ≥$20,000, n=223. Data snapshot: October 18, 2026; publication and correction dates are separate. 4 of 227 valid fees were excluded by percentile boundaries; they are not verified errors.

Quarterly fees are divided by three, semiannual by six and annual by twelve; usable association layers are summed. Unusable fee records are excluded rather than guessing frequency. Current-price-band annual ratios use positive asking prices in the band, n shown; the overall annual ratio uses ListPrice ≥$20,000. These denominators are not interchangeable.

A city with 30–39 valid-fee listings is a small sample. Secondary measures use further qualifying fields and their own denominators. Segments follow recorded tax legal description and MLS subtype. A legal description recording a condominium takes priority, including townhouse, villa or single-family forms. Condominium and Stock Cooperative subtypes remain condominiums when the legal is silent or describes a parent parcel, including new-build units. Remaining Townhouse and Villa listings are grouped in the HOA Fee Index; houses are remaining SingleFamilyResidence listings.
