Computed across the 8 sales listed below — the closest matches to this building by size and vintage. Transfers under $100,000, multi-parcel portfolio deals that cannot be allocated, and land-dominant parcels are excluded.

Reading this against the corridor

The county assesses this building at $1,146/SF. Recorded sales of commercial properties in South Beach / Collins Avenue since 2021 have a median of $301/SF, across a range of $229/SF to $2,502/SF.

Across those 8 recorded sales, the median sale price came in at 0.55× the county assessed value. Assessed values are set for taxation and are reset on their own schedule, so they routinely sit apart from transaction prices — in either direction.

Built in 1935, it is older than the 1964 median vintage of what has been trading nearby — typically a repositioning, capital-expenditure or redevelopment conversation rather than a straight comparison.

By footprint it sits in roughly the 79th percentile of commercial properties that have traded in this corridor — 31 of the 149 recorded sales were of larger buildings.

The assessment works out 280% above the median price per square foot of the comparable sales shown below. That is an arithmetic comparison of a tax figure against transaction prices, not a statement about what this building would sell for.

The lot runs 3.8× the building footprint — 5,689 SF of land under 1,506 SF of structure. Ratios that wide are usually where expansion or redevelopment questions start.

What this means for this building depends on what no public record contains — the leases, the condition, the rent roll.
