The coast and everything just behind it, from Jupiter down through Delray. Downtown West Palm has changed considerably in a decade, and the market now spans walkable condos near Rosemary Square, older single-family neighborhoods inland, and the equestrian world out at Wellington.

A premium near seven thousand a year is normal, roughly three times the Ocala figure, and it moves with the roof age, the wind mitigation report and the distance to water far more than with the asking price. It is the first number we look at, not the last.
