Homestead

Selling a home in Homestead

Homestead is the largest city in south Miami-Dade and the gateway to the Keys and Everglades, covering the 33030, 33031, 33032, 33033, and 33035 ZIP codes. It's the fastest-growing part of the county, with much of South Florida's new single-family and townhome construction — including large Lennar communities like Silver Palms and Waterstone — which keeps buyer demand high and makes it one of the most active markets in the region to sell in.

Over the last 90 days, 403 homes have sold in Homestead, from $215,000 to $3,200,000, with a median sale price of $489,900. These figures update automatically from the MLS; what your home would sell for depends on its exact location, size, and condition.

Here's the catch for a seller: with so much new construction, your home is often competing directly against builder inventory — and builders have deep pockets for incentives. Beating them comes down to pricing, presentation, and a broker who knows how to position a resale against a brand-new home. Done right, an established Homestead home with a bigger lot or upgrades a builder won't match can sell fast and strong.
