Deerfield Beach, Florida

It's a relaxed northern-Broward beach town with strong appeal for buyers who want coastline access without the pace of Fort Lauderdale or Miami. Established communities such as Century Village and Newport offer settled, walkable living, and the beach at Deerfield Beach Island is a genuine everyday amenity. Assigned schools include Deerfield Beach High School and Deerfield Beach Elementary.

Compared to much of coastal South Florida, it's relatively accessible — the median list price is $328,000 and active prices start as low as $106,000. Average price per square foot runs about $335, so smaller condos price in below many neighboring beach markets. You can compare tiers using browse by price.

Current active listings carry a median list price of $328,000, ranging from $106,000 to $550,000, with a median home size of 882 square feet at roughly $335 per square foot. The active inventory is entirely condominiums right now, including a condo-hotel unit. Buyers wanting detached options should watch the single-family homes page as listings appear.

Inventory is very tight, with only two active listings currently on the market. Homes are sitting longer than a fast market would suggest — a median of about 112 days — which gives serious buyers room to negotiate. Keeping an eye on open houses this week is a smart way to move quickly when the right unit lists.

Because the market here skews heavily toward condominiums, HOA fees matter — the median is about $774 per month, which typically covers building and community services. Median property taxes run around $4,449 per year. Factor both into your monthly budget alongside the purchase price, especially in established communities like Century Village.
