Golden Beach Housing Market: Prices, Days, Supply
Golden Beach is a small town of single-family homes, and few sales close in any one quarter, so its market is read a handful of sales at a time. This page shows what homes sold for, how far below the first ask they closed, how long a sale took to reach a contract, and how many homes are for sale now.

💡 Key Insights & Takeaways
- All 23 sales with a recorded ask closed below it, at a median 15.0% under the original ask, and 69.6% of those closings had cut the ask before they sold.
- None of the 23 sales reached a contract inside 14 days, and 87.0% took more than 90 days. Relisted homes carried a median 1,124 days from their first listing.
- 17 homes were for sale in the week of 4 October 2026 against 28 a year earlier, down 39.3%, which is 36.8 weeks of supply at the recent pace of closings.
- Only 6 homes closed in the recent window, 5 July to 5 October 2026, so every recent figure is a direction, and the larger homes in that group lift the recent medians.
- Across nine complete years, October through December ranked best for listing and November through January best for buying, though both signals are weak.
The median Golden Beach sale price rose 85.3% to $11,445,000 in the 52 weeks to 5 October 2026, against the 52 weeks before. Larger homes sold, so part of that rise is the mix of homes and not price. Since 5 October 2024 the median sale took 196 days from listing to contract.

What do Golden Beach homes sell for, and has that changed?
The key metrics above measure the last 52 weeks against the 52 before. The rest of this page uses the 26 closings from 5 October 2024 to 18 September 2026 unless a section names another window, and the weeks after 18 September hold no recorded closings. The median home in that window closed at $8,460,000, and the median price per square foot was $1,363 across the 23 closings with a listed living area. Price per square foot is the closing price divided by the living area the listing gives, and that area often differs from the county's measure, so these figures will not match the housing guide.
Over the 52 weeks to 5 October 2026 the median close was $11,445,000 against $6,175,000 in the 52 weeks before, a rise of 85.3%, and the median price per square foot was $1,544 against $1,006, a rise of 53.5%. Both rose, by different amounts, because the homes sold in the later year were larger and more often coded waterfront, so part of each rise is a change in what sold and not a change in prices. The earlier year holds 10 closings, a directional sample. This describes two completed years and says nothing about the next one.
This table shows the median close and the median price per square foot for the latest 52 weeks and the 52 weeks before, as of 5 October 2026.
| Measure | 7 October 2025 to 5 October 2026 | 8 October 2024 to 6 October 2025 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Median close | $11,445,000 | $6,175,000 | +85.3% |
| Median price per square foot | $1,544 | $1,006 | +53.5% |
| Closings | 16 | 10 (directional) |
The recent window, 5 July to 5 October 2026, holds 6 closings, so these are single sales and not a trend. Its median close was $12,907,500 and its median price per square foot was $1,556, against $7,900,000 and $1,175 across the 20 closings of the baseline, 5 October 2024 to 4 July 2026. The recent homes were bigger, with a median living area of 6,992 square feet against 4,772, so the higher level is partly what sold. One of the six sales carries a sale amount that is still being checked, and the recent medians include it. The baseline runs 20.9 months, shorter than the usual 24, so do not set these gaps beside other towns.
Homes coded waterfront closed at a median $1,593 per square foot against $1,006 for interior homes, on 12 and 10 closings, a directional comparison. Waterfront homes also differ in lot size, price tier, age and view, so the gap is an association and not the value of the water. Waterfront homes were 60.0% of the 25 closings with a known code.
Do Golden Beach homes sell above or below the asking price?
Below, every time. Of the 23 sales with a recorded original ask since 5 October 2024, 100% closed below it and 0.0% closed above, at a median 15.0% under the original ask. The original ask is the first price the listing carried, and 69.6% of these closings had cut it before they sold, so the original ask shows the full gap.
The recent window matches. Its median was 15.4% under the original ask on 5 sales, a directional sample, against 14.1% across the 18 baseline sales. The sixth recent closing has no recorded original ask, so it is left out of every ask figure. The sale amount that is still being checked sits among the five, and the 15.4% includes it. The strongest of the five closed at 92.3% of its original ask, a single sale and anecdotal.
This table shows the median discount to the original ask by window, as of 5 October 2026.
| Window | Median discount to the original ask | Sales |
|---|---|---|
| 5 October 2024 to 18 September 2026 | 15.0% | 23 |
| Baseline, 5 October 2024 to 4 July 2026 | 14.1% | 18 |
| Recent, 5 July to 5 October 2026 | 15.4% | 5 (directional) |
How long does a Golden Beach home take to go under contract?
Days to contract here means the days from the day a home is listed to the day it goes under contract, not to the day it closes. The median sale took 196 days across the 23 sales that carry a contract date, out of 26 closings since 5 October 2024. None of the 23 reached a contract inside 14 days, and 87.0% took more than 90 days.
The recent window matches the baseline. Its median was 196 days on 5 sales, a directional sample, against 177.5 days on 18 baseline sales. Among the recent five, the fastest took 100 days and the slowest 250. Those are single sales, so they mark the range and do not make a trend.
Many of these homes had been on the market before. 69.2% of the 26 closings were relisted, and so were all 6 of the recent closings, 100.0%. For the relisted homes the median ran 1,124 days from the first listing to contract, on 17 sales, against 196 days for the current listing. The first-listing figure counts the years a home spent off the market between attempts, so it shows how long the home was in play and not how long one buyer took to decide.
This table shows days from listing to contract by window, as of 5 October 2026.
| Measure | Median days | Sales |
|---|---|---|
| 5 October 2024 to 18 September 2026 | 196 | 23 |
| Baseline, 5 October 2024 to 4 July 2026 | 177.5 | 18 |
| Recent, 5 July to 5 October 2026 | 196 | 5 (directional) |
| Relisted homes, counted from the first listing | 1,124 | 17 |
How many Golden Beach homes are for sale now, and what changed from a year ago?
The weekly count shows 17 homes for sale in the week of 4 October 2026, down 39.3% from 28 a year earlier and down 15.0% from 20 thirteen weeks earlier. Over the last 4 weeks the count rose by 1 home, 6.3%, so the direction is mixed. Another 2 homes were under contract, a count too small to read. With 17 homes, one listing moves the count by 5.9 points.
Weeks of supply means the homes for sale divided by the weekly pace of closings. Here 17 homes over the pace of 6 closings in 13 weeks gives 36.8 weeks, against 130.0 weeks thirteen weeks earlier, when only 2 homes closed. In the 13 weeks to 4 October 2026 new listings were 6 against 12 a year earlier, contracts were 3 against 2, and closings were 6 against 5. Fewer homes came to market, and sales did not speed up. Over the last 52 weeks contracts rose from 9 to 16 and closings from 10 to 16, while new listings slipped from 35 to 32. Only 49 of the 523 weeks on record, 9.4%, held 17 homes or fewer.
The weekly count tallies homes, 17, while the listing-level figures tally listings, 18, because one home carries two listings. Of the 18 active listings, 10 have been listed over 180 days and 3 over 365, and the median active listing has been listed 188.5 days. Of the 18 listings, 10 ask $21,300,000 or more, 55.6%, while that top band made 5 of the 16 closings of the last 52 weeks, 31.3%, a directional count. Of the 11 listings that left the market in the 13 weeks, 6 sold, a sell-through of 54.5%, against 5 of 11, 45.5%, a year earlier.
This table shows the weekly count and the flows for the week of 4 October 2026 against a year earlier.
| Measure | Week of 4 October 2026 | A year earlier |
|---|---|---|
| Homes for sale | 17 | 28 |
| Weeks of supply | 36.8 | 72.8 |
| New listings, 13 weeks | 6 | 12 |
| Contracts, 13 weeks | 3 | 2 |
| Closings, 13 weeks | 6 | 5 |
How often do Golden Beach homes change hands, and how do buyers pay?
The 26 closings since 5 October 2024 cover 25 properties, a turnover of 6.38% of the town's parcels. The recent window holds 6 closings in three months, and the baseline holds 20 across its 20.9 months.
Cash paid for 80.8% of the 26 closings, which is 21 sales. In the recent window cash paid for 66.7%, 4 of the 6 closings, a directional sample, so 2 were financed.
When have the best months to list or buy in Golden Beach been?
October through December ranked best for sellers to list across nine complete calendar years, 2017 to 2025, and November through January ranked best for buyers, on choice and competition. Both signals are weak. Leave out one year at a time and the seller run holds in 3 of 9 checks and the buyer run in 0 of 9. The two runs overlap in November and December, and with 17 homes for sale one listing can swing any month. This describes past years and does not say when to act.
