I am pleased to share with you my annual Coconut Grove statistics report highlighting that, yet again, Coconut Grove has outpaced a cooling national real estate market by setting new, all-time records across multiple categories!
Herein, I have compiled and analyzed the 2023 statistics, per MLS data, by hand-calculating the stats to ensure they are accurate for our readers. This information allows you to see for yourself the market trends in our community.
I would also like to note the reason I have been so passionate and adamant about publishing the Coconut Grove sales analytics annually for the past 10 years is that I am a Groveite through and through. I truly care about the health of our community and helping my neighbors, and future neighbors, fully understand where the Grove housing market has been and the direction it is headed.
Further, the Grove holds a dear place in my heart for an array of reasons…I met my wife in the Grove 15 years ago, we got married at St. Hugh with our reception held at the historic Villa Woodbine, I am currently the Executive Director of luxury Sales at Douglas Elliman Real Estate in our Two CocoWalk office, my wife and I have lived in Coconut Grove together for 13 years and are raising our daughter and 2 rescue dogs in our home in North Grove.
The overall market in South Florida exploded in 2021 and continued in 2022 due to an enormous influx of buyers from New York, Chicago and L.A. because of our favorable tax rates, Covid and “the way that Florida is being run” – (that last one being the most popular answer when asking buyers “why Florida?”). Then, in 2023, our neighborhood shattered all previous years. Many people believed we had truly hit the “top” of the market in 2022 and it would be impossible to continue…well, those people were wrong.
The Coconut Grove real estate market had increased year-over-year for 9 consecutive years until it exploded during the Covid bounce of 2020-2022…and then topped those numbers in 2023 by most metrics. Here are some takeaways from the 2023 numbers:
- Number of sales dropped 22.6% over last year, but total sales volume in ALL of the Grove went up slightly to $858,164,400; because…
- The average sales price in ALL of the Grove set another new, all-time high at $2,364,089, a 30% jump over 2022 and a whopping jump of 144.2% from $968,237 in 2019 (pre-Covid).
- The average sales price per square foot in ALL of the Grove also set another new, all-time high at $929.79, a 14.3% jump over 2022 and a ridiculous 115.3% jump over the pre-Covid 2019 high of $431.92.
- South Grove was the first neighborhood to EVER have both the average ($1,195.04) and median ($1,130.42) price per sq/ft over $1,100 in 2023!
- The average sale price in NORTH Grove jumped 37.8% year-over-year, one of the highest jumps ever recorded.
Coconut Grove Real Estate – Months of Supply (February 2024)
Months of supply means how long it would take for the market to absorb all real estate, if no additional real estate came to market. This stat determines whether it is a Buyer’s Market or Seller’s Market. When looking at statistics, having a 6-month supply or less favors sellers while more than 6 months favors buyers. Any supply that is 6-9 months is considered a stable market.
Single-Family Homes: 8.5-Month Supply (Buyer’s Market)
92 Currently Available
65 Sold in Past 6 Months
Condos: 8.9-Month Supply (Buyer’s Market)
104 Currently Available
70 Sold in Past 6 Months
Townhomes: 6.5-Month Supply (Balanced Market)
24 Currently Available
22 Sold in Past 6 Months
