Buyer Intelligence & Acquisition Advisory

A purchase signed before the district finishes forming. Staged deposits run from a mid 2027 groundbreaking to 2029 keys, the fifteen day window does the real work, and the neighborhood checks matter more than the floor plan.

A Jupiter home bought in 2025 pays 18.73 mills, about 1.87 percent of the price in year one: $93,634 on a $5 million purchase. Where each dollar goes, three worked bills, the homestead cap, and the 2026 fire rescue change.

Palm Beach had 198 residences on the market as of August 2026 and exactly one house priced below five million dollars. Everything else under that number is an apartment, oceanfront starts at $275K in a building and $18.2M as a house, and the market carries about 8 months of supply. The island buyer's briefing.

A Palm Beach Gardens home bought in 2025 pays 17.86 mills, about 1.79 percent of the price in year one: $89,304 on a $5 million purchase. Where each dollar goes, three worked bills, the Jupiter comparison, and the homestead cap.

The median $3M+ house sells for about the same on both islands. The land does not: roughly $39.8M per acre in Palm Beach against $10.9M on Jupiter Island, measured through July 2026. The numbers, the way of life and the club question, side by side.

Caretta offers the shortest wait in the county pipeline, with deliveries beginning in 2026. The delivery stage buyer walks a finished residence, reads the documents in the fifteen day window, and settles title early. The sequence, from gallery to keys.

From 2016 through July 2026 the Town of Jupiter Island recorded 81 qualified sales, $589.1M in all, with no matching MLS closing, including the $58M record itself. The private market measured against the open one, and how the quiet deals actually happen.

The reported timeline says 2029, and the developer's own materials say nothing. What a buyer can fix at signing, what stays open, and the eight questions the sales gallery must answer.

Buying one of 28 homes mid construction is its own discipline. The developer's contract, the fifteen day window, the small association arithmetic, and the scarcity that makes second choices matter at Glass House.

A West Palm Beach home bought in 2025 pays 20.45 mills, about 2.04 percent of the price in year one: $102,234 on a $5 million purchase, more downtown. Where each dollar goes, houses against condominiums, the downtown line, and the two caps.

Fort Lauderdale recorded 204 luxury closings in the year through July 2026, three-quarters of them on water, at $1,124 per foot. West Palm Beach recorded half as many at $1,310. One market offers depth and the other offers scarcity, and the choice comes down to which asset the buyer actually wants.

A Palm Beach home bought in 2025 pays 14.87 mills, about 1.49 percent of the price in year one: $74,345 on a $5 million purchase. It is the lowest rate in the county. Where each dollar goes, houses against condominiums, the bridge comparison, and the caps.
