Selling a Home Between Deerfield Beach and Boynton Beach: The Corridor Seller's Guide

Short answer: Deerfield Beach, Boca Raton, Delray Beach and Boynton Beach are one commuting corridor and four different selling markets. Over the twelve months to August 31, 2026 the median closed house price ran from $525,000 in Boynton Beach to $980,000 in Boca Raton, and in every one of the four cities the house priced to closed sales on day one sold inside a month for 2% to 3% under asking while the house that waited six months gave up 7% to 14%. This page is the map: the city seller page, home-worth page, expired page and situation page for each, with the current figures side by side.

Every figure on this page comes from our own BeachesMLS feed, houses and condominiums kept separate, closed sales for the twelve months to August 31, 2026 and active listings as of September 27, 2026. Nothing here is an estimate of your home. Each city page below goes deeper, by ZIP code, water, age of the house and community type.

How do the four corridor cities compare for a house seller right now?

Read the table across, not down. The cities differ in price by a factor of two, but the seller's problem is identical in all four: the first row of sales, the houses that went under contract inside 30 days, gave up 1.7% to 3.0%, and the last row, the houses that took more than six months, gave up 7.1% to 14.3%. The city decides your price band. The day-one price decides which row you end up in. Deerfield Beach is the exception in one respect: its buyer pool is 24% cash against 46% to 57% in the Palm Beach County cities, so a financed buyer's appraisal and insurance quote matter more there than anywhere else on the corridor.

The gap between the median asking price today and the median closing price over the last year is widest in Boca Raton and Delray Beach, where expensive listings accumulate. Inventory is what has not sold yet. Pricing against your neighbors' asking prices is how a house joins the 106 in Boca Raton and 63 in Delray Beach that have been listed more than 180 days.

Where is the seller page for my city?

The coastal towns between Boca Raton and Boynton Beach have their own home-worth pages: Highland Beach, Gulf Stream and Ocean Ridge. Boca Raton also has two deeper studies, the Boca Raton home seller pricing study and the best time to sell a house in Boca Raton, and a guide to selling a waterfront home in Boca Raton.

What will selling cost me, and does the county line change it?

The brokerage fee you agree, documentary stamp tax on the deed at $0.70 per $100 of the sale price, your mortgage payoff, prorated property taxes and association dues, and any estoppel or transfer fees are the same in all four cities. The item that changes at the Hillsboro Canal is owner's title insurance. In Palm Beach County the seller customarily pays for the owner's policy; in Broward County the buyer customarily does. It is a custom rather than a statute and it can be negotiated in the contract, but a Deerfield Beach seller and a Boca Raton seller with the same price will see different net sheets because of it.

Start with seller closing costs in Palm Beach County and who pays for title insurance in Palm Beach County. The full list, line by line, is in seller closing costs in Florida, the worked example is in the Florida seller net sheet, and the total picture including preparation and carrying cost is in what it costs to sell a house in Florida. We prepare a written net sheet before you sign a listing agreement, not after you have an offer.

How should I price along the corridor?

Against closed sales in your subdivision and ZIP code, never against the listings around you. The corridor's four house markets have this in common: the median asking price on the market is well above the median closing price, because expensive listings sit and cheap ones clear. A seller who anchors to the active set prices into the six-month row of the table above. Pricing in a buyer's market sets out the method, price cuts tracks what reductions are doing across the region, and the three asking-versus-sale pages linked in the city table above show the gap city by city. If the previous agent's advice was to price high and come down, read how to lower the price after an expired listing before you relist.

Inside each city the spread is wider than between the cities. Delray Beach houses closed from $336 to $1,077 per square foot depending on the ZIP code, and 55+ communities in Boynton Beach and Delray Beach price at roughly half the rest of the city per square foot. That is why the city seller pages break the figures down by ZIP, water, age and community type, and why no citywide median on this page is a number for your house.

Is selling a condominium on the corridor different?

Yes, in every city. Supply is roughly double the house market, most buyers pay cash, and the association's paperwork decides the sale as much as the unit does. Before listing a corridor condominium we ask for the budget, the reserve schedule, the structural integrity reserve study, the milestone inspection report where the building is three stories or more, and any pending or approved special assessment, because the buyer's lender and the buyer will. Florida milestone inspections and SIRS explains the deadlines, how to sell a condo in Palm Beach County covers the process, condo prices, assessments and insurance covers the market, and the Boca Raton condo cost and liquidity index tracks which buildings are moving.

Which page covers my situation?

Each of these has a measured page for Palm Beach County, which covers Boca Raton, Delray Beach and Boynton Beach, and a Broward County twin for Deerfield Beach.

Inherited property and estates: probate real estate in South Florida is the hub, with city pages for Boca Raton, Delray Beach, Boynton Beach and Deerfield Beach, plus guides to selling a house held in a living trust, the stepped-up basis on an inherited house and selling an inherited condo. Owing more than the sale will bring: short sales in Boca Raton, Delray Beach, Boynton Beach and Deerfield Beach. A listing that already failed: expired and canceled listings. Selling from a distance: selling a Florida home from out of state. Selling without repairs: selling a house as is in Florida, and what you must tell the buyer either way: Florida seller disclosure requirements.

What are the steps, whichever city I am in?

We walk the property before we say a number. We pull every closed sale in your subdivision and ZIP code from our own BeachesMLS feed and prepare a written comparative market analysis with the comparables attached, and a written net sheet so you know what reaches you. We ask for the mortgage payoff, the permit history, the roof age, the insurance declarations page and, for a condominium, the association documents listed above, before we price. Then we list, with the first two weeks treated as the sale, because in all four cities that is when the buyer who pays closest to asking arrives. The wider process for the region is on selling a home in South Florida, and the preparation checklist is 94 things to do before selling your home.
