Ask Ava about this dataPrice my home correctlyShort answer: the median single-family home in Margate closed at $475,000 over the last twelve months on 337 sales, and the median condominium or townhouse at $135,000 on 348 sales, on BeachesMLS data retrieved October 18, 2026. No citywide figure is your number. The middle half of house sales alone ran from $377,000 to $547,500. What your home is worth is decided by the closed sales that match it in size, water, age and condition, which is what a written comparative market analysis is for, and what no website can produce for you.
Key takeaways
- The smallest houses in Margate close at the highest price per square foot ($327 against $286 for the largest band with enough sales to measure).
- Waterfront houses closed -1% per square foot against the rest of Margate's houses and took 53 days to go under contract against 37: $296 against $300 per square foot.
- A pool house in Margate closed at $535,000 against $430,000, but per square foot the gap is +11%, because pool houses are also larger houses.
- In Margate, a house that went under contract inside 30 days gave up 1.9% of its original asking price; one that took more than 180 days gave up 8.1%.
Houses and condominiums in Margate, kept separate
Blending them hides exactly the thing you need to see. A Margate house and a Margate condominium are two markets with different buyers, different financing, and different clocks.

September 2026 closed 29 houses against 26 in August 2026, and 26 condominiums and townhouses against 26. Single months here fall under our 30-sale floor for a median, so we print counts and let the twelve-month figures carry the price picture. One month is weather, not climate: a handful of closings in either direction moves a monthly median more than the market moved. We read it, but we price off the twelve-month table below and the specific comparable sales, not off this line.
What moves the number in Margate
Four things move a Margate price more than the citywide median does: living area, water, whether the house has a pool, and when it was built. Each is measured below from the same twelve months of closed sales. Condition, updates since the last sale, and the street itself are the fifth, sixth and seventh, and they are the ones no dataset holds.
| Margate houses by living area, last twelve months | Closed sales | Median closing price | Median price per sq ft |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 to 1500 sq ft | 138 | $399,950 | $327 |
| 1500 to 2500 sq ft | 192 | $520,000 | $286 |
| 2500 to 3500 sq ft | 6 | not published (under 30 sales) | not published (under 30 sales) |
| 3500 sq ft and up | 0 | not published (under 30 sales) | not published (under 30 sales) |
| Margate condominiums by living area, last twelve months | Closed sales | Median closing price | Median price per sq ft |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 to 1000 sq ft | 171 | $94,000 | $104 |
| 1000 to 1500 sq ft | 149 | $175,000 | $167 |
| 1500 sq ft and up | 24 | not published (under 30 sales) | not published (under 30 sales) |

The smallest houses in Margate close at the highest price per square foot ($327 against $286 for the largest band with enough sales to measure). Multiplying your square footage by the citywide median will overstate a large house and understate a small one. The comparable sales have to be the same size class as yours.
Waterfront houses in Margate
| Last twelve months | Waterfront | Not waterfront |
|---|---|---|
| Closed sales | 57 | 280 |
| Median closing price | $505,000 | $467,450 |
| Median price per square foot | $296 | $300 |
| Median days to go under contract | 53 | 37 |

Waterfront houses closed -1% per square foot against the rest of Margate's houses and took 53 days to go under contract against 37: $296 against $300 per square foot. Inside that average, ocean access, a fixed bridge and a retention lake are three different prices, and the MLS water flag does not tell them apart. The comparable sales have to.
Waterfront condominiums in Margate
| Last twelve months | Waterfront | Not waterfront |
|---|---|---|
| Closed sales | 44 | 304 |
| Median closing price | $174,000 | $120,000 |
| Median price per square foot | $180 | $130 |
| Median days to go under contract | 54 | 70 |

Waterfront condominiums closed at $180 per square foot against $130 and took 54 days against 70. Floor, exposure, and the building's reserve and assessment position then move the number again inside the same building.
Houses with a private pool in Margate
| Last twelve months | Private pool | No pool |
|---|---|---|
| Closed sales | 111 | 226 |
| Median closing price | $535,000 | $430,000 |
| Median price per square foot | $321 | $289 |
| Median days to go under contract | 30 | 45 |

Listings are provided for consumers’ personal, non-commercial use and may not be used for any purpose other than to identify prospective properties consumers may be interested in purchasing.
A pool house in Margate closed at $535,000 against $430,000, but per square foot the gap is +11%, because pool houses are also larger houses. The pool is worth what the comparable pool sales in your subdivision say it is worth, and nothing else.
Where Margate houses and condominiums sold, by community
From October 2025 through September 2026, Paradise Gardens recorded the most house sales in Margate (49), and Holiday Springs Village the most condominium and townhouse sales (28), on BeachesMLS closed sales. Margate recorded 342 house sales and 350 condominium and townhouse sales in those twelve months, and the price moves from one community to the next. Your community's figure is still not your number; it is where the comparison starts.

Medians appear only where a community has 30 or more closed sales in the window; under that we show the count, because a median of a handful of sales describes those few homes, not the community. Communities with fewer than 10 closed sales are not listed. A count includes the sales the MLS files under that community, so it is a floor, not a total.
More Margate community reports: Hammon Heights; Springs Gateway; Cathedral Square. Every condominium and townhouse community above has its own report, with fees, asking prices and recent sales: condo fees in Margate.

In Margate, a house that went under contract inside 30 days gave up 1.9% of its original asking price; one that took more than 180 days gave up 8.1%. For condominiums the same two bands read 2.9% and 23.4%. The first asking price is the most expensive decision in the sale. It is why the comparative market analysis comes before the sign, not after the first month of silence.
What would a website never know about your home?
Three things, and they are usually the largest adjustments in the analysis. First, what you have done since the last sale: a roof, impact windows, a kitchen, a permitted addition. Second, the street: the house behind yours backing onto a preserve, or onto a parking lot. Third, for a condominium, the association's reserve position, insurance renewal and any pending assessment, which a buyer's lender will read before approving the loan. We deliberately do not publish an instant online estimate, because an estimate that cannot see those three things is not an opinion of value. It is arithmetic on a ZIP code.
How the comparative market analysis is prepared
- Tell us the address and what you have done to the home. The form on this page asks the open question most websites never ask.
- Gia pulls the closed sales that actually match. Same subdivision or building first, then the same size class and age, from our own BeachesMLS feed, and walks the property before saying a number.
- You receive a written opinion of value with the sales attached, and a net sheet showing what reaches you after payoff and costs. Within one business day. It is not a lender's report and no software generates it.

Home prices in Margate: questions
What is the median home price in Margate right now?
Kept separate, as they must be: the median single-family home in Margate closed at $475,000 over the last twelve months on 337 sales, and the median condominium or townhouse at $135,000 on 348 sales. The middle half of house sales alone ran from $377,000 to $547,500. A single median is not your number. BeachesMLS data retrieved October 18, 2026.
How much is my house worth per square foot in Margate?
The median house closed at $299 per square foot, but the middle half of sales ranged from $264 to $339. Size, water, lot, age and condition each move that figure, and the rate is not flat across size classes (the table on this page shows it band by band where there are enough sales). Multiply your square footage by a median and you will be wrong in a predictable direction. The median condominium closed at $136 per square foot, but the middle half of sales ranged from $97 to $210.
Can I get an instant home estimate for Margate?
Not from us, deliberately. Software cannot see the condition of your kitchen, what you have done since the last sale, which side of the street you are on, or the association's reserve position. We prepare a written comparative market analysis by hand from the same BeachesMLS sales shown on this page, and the sales it rests on are attached to it. Within one business day.
How long does it take to sell a home in Margate?
Over the last twelve months the median house went under contract in 38 days and the median condominium in 66 days. Add roughly 30 to 45 days from contract to closing for a financed buyer. There are 103 houses and 339 condominiums on the market today, which is 3.7 and 11.7 months of supply at the current pace.
Do homes in Margate sell for asking price?
Mostly not. For houses, 79.8% of house sales closed below their original asking price and the typical house closed at 96.4% of what it first asked; for condominiums, 83.9% of condominium sales closed below their original asking price and the typical condominium closed at 91.0% of what it first asked. The cut grows with every month on the market, which the table on this page shows band by band where there are enough sales.
Is the Margate market moving up or down this month?
September 2026: 29 house closings against 26 the month before, and 26 condominium closings against 26. Single months fall under our 30-sale floor for a reliable median here, so we report counts. One month does not set your price; the specific comparable sales do.

After more than a year trying to sell my condo to no avail, here comes Gia and with her sincere persona and professionalism, she sold my condo within 3 weeks.
★★★★★ Rosa S. · Google review, February 2020
Gia and John from PBP Real Estate exceeded expectations in selling my mother's Delray Beach condo, which had previously failed to sell with another firm. Despite being in New York, I experienced excellent communication and responsiveness via phone, text, and email, making the remote process, including the closing, stress-free.
★★★★★ Robert S. · Google review, December 2024
