Seller Intelligence & Strategic Advisory

Week-one contracts at $3M and up kept 98.4 percent of the original asking price in the last year. Listings past six months kept 84.5 percent. That speed is arranged before the listing exists. The three quiet lanes of a Palm Beach County sale, and the playbook for choosing one.

When should you list? When should you buy? At $5M+ in Palm Beach County, properties that close in Q2 (April-June) sell in a median 62 days at 94.1% of asking. By Q4, market time stretches to 147 days and the list-to-sold ratio drops to 92.8%. At $20M+, the Q4 seller closes at 83% of asking versus 89.5% in Q2, a gap worth approximately $1.3 million. For buyers, Q3 delivers less than half the competition of Q2, with zero above-asking sales at $5M+ in 2025. This report maps the optimal listing timeline and the buyer's window at every tier from $1M to $20M+.
