Thin years move a lot on a handful of transactions. Read the direction, not the decimal.
Other commercial product is what trades here — 8 of the 12 recorded sales (67%), at a median of $595 per foot. The rest splits across retail ($326/SF), office ($319/SF).
Lauderdale-by-the-Sea runs 59% above the Broward County median of $246/SF. That gap is not a verdict on any one building — it reflects what kind of product sits inside the city limits and how old it is — but it does mean a countywide average will understate what your parcel is likely to fetch.
Note the spread by product type: $319 to $595 per foot inside the same city. Anyone quoting you one Lauderdale-by-the-Sea number without asking what you own is guessing.
None of this is your number. What a specific building brings turns on what the leases say, who is in the space and for how long, the condition of the roof and the parking field, and whether the zoning permits something the current use does not.
First name and email. I’ll pull your parcel’s county record and send a supported range with the comparable sales behind it.
No obligation, and no listing agreement attached to it. If the answer is “hold,” I’ll tell you that.
Across 12 single-parcel commercial sales recorded between 2021–2023, the median was $392 per square foot of building area, and the median transaction price was $2,142,500. Per-foot pricing varies widely by product type: Other commercial $595/SF (8) , Retail $326/SF (3) , Office $319/SF (1). Those are recorded county figures, not asking prices.
County records show 12 qualifying single-parcel commercial transactions from 2021–2023. Multi-parcel portfolio deals are excluded from that count because their prices are booked across several folios and cannot be attributed to one building.
Other commercial accounts for 8 of the 12 recorded sales, at a median of $595 per square foot. Retail records 3 sales at a $326/SF median. Office records 1 sales at a $319/SF median.
Only as a starting point. Median $/SF across this market is $392, but the range between product types here runs from $319 to $595 per foot — and inside any one type, lease structure, remaining term, condition and zoning capacity move the number further. A broker opinion of value prices your specific parcel against the comps that genuinely apply to it.
