MELBOURNE BEACH ORIGINAL PLATS

The median closed price over the last twelve months was $825,000 across 31 sales, ranging $455,000 to $4,571,000. Median price per square foot was $382.

Yes. The median reported association fee is $250 a month, on 2 of the 43 listings. What it covers varies, so I read the budget, the reserve study and the assessment history before you go under contract.

6 of the 43 properties front the Atlantic. Which water it is changes the price, and on canal or river frontage the seawall, the dock permit and the low tide depth all need checking before you rely on the photos.

Sellers closed at about 95 percent of original list over the last year. There is some room, and it tends to show up on properties that have already had a price cut. I price the offer off the specific comparable sales, not the neighborhood average.

Yes. 29 of the 43 properties have a private pool. On the barrier island the pump, the heater and the screen enclosure age faster than inland, so I have those inspected separately from the structure.

The median bill on record is about $5,727, but that is what the current owners pay. Florida caps annual assessment increases for homesteaded owners and the cap resets when the property sells, so your first bill can be materially higher. I run the reset number before you write an offer.

I pull the closed comparable sales for the specific street, get a real wind and flood quote inside the inspection period, run the tax reset so the monthly payment you are picturing is the one you will actually have, and read whatever association or deed documents apply. Then we write. Call me at (321) 212-7676.
