The Top of the Club
BeachesMLS recorded closings, deduplicated across boards
The top ten tells this year's geography plainly. Manalapan's ocean to lake estates placed five entries. We have tracked that stretch deed by deed as the town reprices, with the island of Palm Beach and Boca Raton's Royal Palm supplying the rest. The Bears Club's $41 million entry carried the Jupiter corridor's flag.
Where the Club Lives
BeachesMLS recorded closings
The island's lead on count hides how much it understates. Palm Beach transacts heavily off market and through its own board, so the recorded entries are the club's public face rather than its full membership. West Palm Beach's presence is the newest line, tower closings joining the house record as the South Flagler ladder delivers. Wellington's entries ride the equestrian calendar, a market that clears its biggest sales around the season the festival anchors.
Reading the Year
Three readings hold. The club keeps growing at the very top, where this year's leaders cleared numbers that were records for their towns only a few years ago. The membership is overwhelmingly houses, with 165 of the 179 entries single family, though the tower share is rising as the new waterfront buildings deliver. And the volume arrived before the season did. With the winter's buyers landing now, the club's final 2026 roster will read meaningfully larger, and we update this ledger as it does.

Bottom Line
The ten million dollar club recorded 179 members and $3.3 billion by mid October. Manalapan's oceanfront led it, deepened by the island, Boca's estate section and the first tower entries. The roster is the county's truest scoreboard, and the recorded version runs a lap behind the real one, which is the part worth remembering in every negotiation at this height.
For owners and buyers at this tier: the public record is the club's visible wing. The rest moves privately, which is why representation with reach into both rooms is the price of admission done properly.
Figures are recorded BeachesMLS residential closings at or above $10 million across Palm Beach County municipalities, January 1 through October 13, 2026, deduplicated across boards. Island transactions also close through the Palm Beach Board and privately, and off market transfers occur countywide. Recorded counts therefore understate total activity, most heavily on the island.
