Closed single-family home sales in West Palm Beach, November 12, 2025 to November 12, 2026, and homes for sale on November 12, 2026. Beaches MLS data via Coldwell Banker Home Platform, pulled November 12, 2026; each sale is counted once.

The city

From Flagler Drive to the western communities.

West Palm Beach is the county seat of Palm Beach County, on the west shore of the Lake Worth Lagoon across from Palm Beach. Downtown, Clematis Street and the Flagler Drive waterfront are at its center, and Palm Beach International Airport is just west of downtown.

A West Palm Beach address covers very different markets. On this page it also takes in unincorporated areas that Home Platform maps with the city, among them The Acreage, so the citywide median of $530,000 sits far below the historic neighborhoods near the water: $1,840,000 in the South End and $3,600,000 in El Cid.

Of the 1,728 houses sold, 783 closed below $500,000 and 355 for $1 million or more. Eight closed for $10 million or more.
