For reporters

Where the numbers come from

Every figure PBP publishes is computed from the brokerage\u2019s own BeachesMLS data feed: listings permitted for internet display across Palm Beach, Broward, Miami-Dade, Martin and St. Lucie counties, refreshed daily, with closed sales drawn from a rolling archive so the window always ends on the last full month. Fees are converted to a monthly equivalent and association layers are summed. Assessment, inspection and reserve flags are keyword classifications of what listing agents wrote in the public record, never a reading of an association\u2019s private books. Medians need five or more records, percentages ten or more; smaller groups are shown as counts. No estimate, model or third-party figure is applied, and each page states its statistical date, sample and exclusions. Method pages: Condo Fee Index, Seller Blink Rate, how to read our numbers, corrections log.

Standing quote, on the record

“We publish the method in the open so anyone can check it. Every figure comes from listing records in the BeachesMLS feed, recomputed daily, and the numbers argue against our own sellers’ asking prices as often as they argue for them. Condo assessment disclosures are the clearest example: association finances are private in Florida, but what a listing agent is required to disclose is not, and that is where the stress shows first.”

Background

Gia has been a licensed Florida real estate professional since 2000 and is Broker of Record of PBP Real Estate, LLC, an independent Boca Raton brokerage. Her practice is weighted to listing representation and probate and estate sales, which is where the data program started: sellers and personal representatives asking what the market was actually doing, not what a portal estimated. Owner and Broker Associate Grant Freer (BK3077984) builds and runs the data pipeline. The agents who work under her are on the team page. Her seller-facing profile is at /gia-freer-agent/; the brokerage\u2019s canonical facts are at /about/facts/.
