Is Palm Royal Apartments a 55-plus community?
Yes. Every recent listing describes Palm Royal as a 55-and-over community, and several listing descriptions state it directly, calling it an active adult community. Ask the association for its current age verification process and any rules on younger guests or occupants before you make an offer.
What have units at Palm Royal sold for recently?
Five units closed in the last twelve months. Three 704 square foot one-bedrooms sold for $85,000, $100,000 and $137,000, and two 1,120 square foot two-bedrooms sold for $175,000 and $220,000. The median closing was $137,000, or about $156 a square foot, and the median sale closed at about 95 percent of its asking price.
What are the HOA fees at Palm Royal Apartments?
Recent listings show monthly fees from $522 to $626, with a median of $579. Most listings show the fee covering common areas, building insurance, trash, water, basic cable and grounds maintenance, with sewer and pest control noted in some. Ask for the current budget, the reserve study and any planned special assessments.
Are pets allowed at Palm Royal?
No. Every recent listing at Palm Royal states that pets are not allowed. Service animals and emotional support animals are handled under separate fair housing rules, so if that applies to you, ask the association how it processes requests. If you plan to bring a pet, this community is not a fit.
Can you rent out a unit at Palm Royal?
Not right away. Most recent listings say owners cannot lease during their first two years of ownership, and buyer approval by the association is required. One listing notes that corporate buyers are not accepted. After the waiting period, a recent rental listing at $2,500 a month gives a rough sense of rents. Get the full leasing rules in writing, including any minimum lease term and how often a unit may be leased each year.
How old are the buildings at Palm Royal?
The buildings date from 1968 and are concrete block, two to four stories tall. One listing reports that the building completed its 40-year inspection and has a new roof. Older buildings carry inspection and reserve obligations under Florida condo law, so ask for the latest inspection reports and reserve study before you buy.
Is there parking and a garage at Palm Royal?
There are no garages. Parking is in surface lots, and some listings mention assigned spaces and limits on the number of vehicles, along with bans on commercial vehicles, boats and RVs. If you have two cars or a larger vehicle, confirm the parking rules with the association before you sign a contract.
How close is Palm Royal to the beach and downtown Boca?
Listings describe the beach as about a mile away, and Mizner Park and downtown Boca Raton shops and restaurants as within walking distance or a short drive. A Publix and several banks are close by on foot. That walkability is the main reason buyers choose Palm Royal over adult communities farther west.
How many homes are for sale in Palm Royal Apts Inc?
There are 3 active listings for sale in Palm Royal Apts Inc right now, and these counts update from the MLS as homes come on the market and go under contract. Prices cluster fairly closely, with the top of the market about 2.2 times the entry level. Ask us to set up a search alert and you will see new Palm Royal Apts Inc listings the day they reach the market.
What is the median home price in Palm Royal Apts Inc?
The median list price in Palm Royal Apts Inc is $169,900, or roughly $231 per square foot. The median is the midpoint of what is currently listed, so about half of Palm Royal Apts Inc homes ask more and half ask less, within a broader range of $135,000 to $295,000. The median sits in the lower part of that range, so most Palm Royal Apts Inc homes are nearer the entry level and a few high-end listings pull the top up. We can pull recent comparable sales to price a specific home more precisely.
What price range do homes in Palm Royal Apts Inc cover?
Homes for sale in Palm Royal Apts Inc currently range from about $135,000 at the entry level to $295,000 at the top of the market. That spread reflects unit size, floor, and finish level across the condos and townhomes here, with the median list price around $169,900. The spread is moderate, so there is real choice here without the extremes some markets show. Tell us your budget and must-haves and we will send the Palm Royal Apts Inc listings that actually fit.
How long do homes take to sell in Palm Royal Apts Inc?
Homes in Palm Royal Apts Inc are averaging 90 days on market, measured from the day a listing goes live to the day it goes under contract. That is a measured pace, which usually leaves buyers room to negotiate and makes pricing at the outset matter more for sellers. Days on market in Palm Royal Apts Inc also shift with the season and with how a home is priced, so a sharply priced listing can still sell well ahead of the average.
Is Palm Royal Apts Inc a 55+ community?
Yes. Palm Royal Apts Inc is an age-restricted, 55-and-over active adult community, which generally means at least one resident per home must be 55 or older and the community is built around an active adult lifestyle. These communities usually pair lower-maintenance homes with amenities such as a clubhouse, pool, fitness center, and a full social calendar. Rules on age, occupancy, leasing, and pets are set by the HOA and vary, so confirm the current governing documents for Palm Royal Apts Inc before you write an offer.

Palm Royal Apts Inc, Boca Raton, FL, is a 55+ community in Palm Beach County with 3 homes for sale right now. Palm Royal Apts Inc Condo is an age-restricted 55+ community in Boca Raton, Palm Beach County, Florida, governed under the Housing for Older Persons Act (HOPA). Homes are priced from $94,000 to $240,000. At least one resident per home must be 55 or older. Pure Equity lists homes in Palm Royal Apts Inc and represents buyers. Commission is negotiable, and what we are paid is agreed with you in writing before you commit to anything.

Palm Royal Apartments is a small 55-and-over condominium on SE 13th Street in east Boca Raton, recorded in the MLS as Palm Royal Apts Inc Condo. Every recent listing describes it as an adult 55-plus community, and several listing descriptions say so in plain words. The buildings went up in 1968 and stand two to four stories, with addresses at 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 and 40 SE 13th Street. Units come in three main plans: a one-bedroom, one-bath of 704 square feet, a one-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath of about 734, and a two-bedroom, two-bath of 1,120. The draw is price and location together. A one-bedroom here has recently sold for $137,000 or less, a short walk from downtown Boca Raton.

If you own here and are thinking about selling, start with the five units that closed in the last twelve months. Three were 704 square foot one-bedrooms. They sold for $85,000 in August 2026, $100,000 in March 2026 and $137,000 in December 2025. Two were 1,120 square foot two-bedrooms, which sold for $220,000 in February 2026 and $175,000 in July 2026. The median closing was $137,000 and the median price per square foot was $156. Prices ran from about $121 a square foot to about $196, and that spread is condition, floor and updates, not location. The best one-bedroom and the best two-bedroom both sold at roughly $195 a square foot.

Sellers here have been realistic, and it has paid off. The median sale closed at about 95 percent of its asking price, and the median time to a sale was 107 days. Every one of the five closed within about 8 percent of its list price. That tells you buyers will pay close to asking for a unit priced in line with the recent sales, and that they negotiate firmly on units priced above it. A ground-floor one-bedroom with original finishes and a top-floor remodeled two-bedroom are different products, and the price should say so. Lead with the facts buyers ask about first: floor, updates, impact glass or shutters, and the condition of the air conditioning.

Current competition is light but uneven. At the time of writing three units were for sale and one was under contract. A 704 square foot one-bedroom was listed at $135,000, a 734 square foot one-and-a-half-bath at $169,900, and a 1,120 square foot two-bedroom at $295,000. The median asking price was about $231 a square foot, well above the $156 median for closed sales. The two-bedroom was asking about a third more than the best two-bedroom sale of the year and had been listed for 163 days. If you are preparing to sell a two-bedroom, the $175,000 and $220,000 closings are your real comparables, and the gap between them is what updates earn.

For buyers, the stock is consistent. Every unit is a condominium in a 1968 concrete block building, with public water and sewer. There are no garages, and parking is in surface lots, with some listings noting assigned spaces and limits on the number of vehicles. Several units have a screened patio or balcony, and listings mention roll-down or electric hurricane shutters, partial or full impact glass, and in-unit washers and dryers in some units. Views are mostly garden and pool. Laundry rooms, extra storage closets and elevators appear in the listings, though not every building has an elevator, so check the specific building if stairs are a concern.

Monthly fees are moderate for east Boca. All nine recent listings state a fee, ranging from $522 to $626 a month, with a median of $579. Most listings show the fee covering common areas, building insurance, trash, water, basic cable and grounds maintenance, with sewer, pest control and the pool noted in some. One listing reports that the building completed its 40-year inspection and has a new roof. Ask for the most recent inspection reports, the reserve study and any assessments, because older Florida condo buildings carry real obligations under the state's milestone inspection and reserve rules.

Two rules shape who can buy here. First, pets are not allowed according to every recent listing. Second, leasing is restricted. Most listings note that owners cannot lease during their first two years of ownership, and one listing description says no rentals in the first two years. Buyer approval by the association is required, and one listing notes that corporate buyers are not accepted. A single rental listing at $2,500 a month suggests what a unit can rent for after the waiting period. If you are buying to rent, plan on owning and holding for two years before a tenant can move in.

Palm Royal fits a buyer over 55 who wants to live near downtown Boca Raton without paying downtown condo prices. The trade-offs are age and simplicity. These are 1968 buildings with no garages and a short amenity list, and the no-pet and leasing rules rule out some buyers before they ever tour. For the right buyer that is fine. What they get is a walkable location, a pool and clubhouse, and a median fee of $579 a month. Sellers do best when they market to exactly that buyer and price to the recent closings, not to the hopeful asking prices around them.

Is Palm Royal Apts Inc right for you?

It helps to know who Palm Royal Apts Inc tends to suit before you tour. As an age-restricted community, Palm Royal Apts Inc fits active adults, downsizers, and seasonal residents who want a lock-and-leave home and a full social calendar. At least one resident usually needs to meet the age requirement, so confirm the specific age rule and any younger-spouse provision before you buy. On price, Palm Royal Apts Inc sits toward the more attainable end of the market, which draws first-time buyers, downsizers, and investors. Whether Palm Royal Apts Inc is right for you depends on how you plan to use the home, full time or seasonally, and Pure Equity can walk you through the tradeoffs before you commit.

Living in Palm Royal Apts Inc

Life at Palm Royal is quiet and close to town. The association runs a community pool, a clubhouse with internet access, shuffleboard courts and a barbecue and picnic area, and several listings mention bike and jogging paths and a car wash area. The 55-plus rule keeps the pace calm. The bigger draw is what sits just outside. Listings describe Publix as practically around the corner, banks within walking distance, Mizner Park and downtown shopping and dining a short walk or ride away, and the beach about a mile off. Many owners spend more time on their screened patios and in town than at the clubhouse, and that is part of the appeal for buyers who want a small, quiet building rather than a large adult resort.

Palm Royal Apts Inc location

Listings place it within walking distance of a Publix, banks, Mizner Park and downtown Boca Raton shops and restaurants, and about a mile from the beach. Current MLS listings show the community zoned for Boca Raton Elementary, Boca Raton Community Middle and Boca Raton High, though in a 55-plus community schools matter mostly for resale to the broader market. Confirm any school assignment with the School District of Palm Beach County.

Buying a home in Palm Royal Apts Inc

The buying process in Palm Royal Apts Inc is the one used across Palm Beach County. Getting a mortgage pre-approval first tells you your real budget and lets you move quickly when the right home comes up. Ask for the association's governing documents, budget, and reserve study before you write an offer. Association fees, any club or membership costs, and rules on rentals, pets, and leasing vary by community and materially affect the true cost of ownership. Property taxes factor into the monthly payment: the median annual property tax in Palm Beach County is about $3,600. Florida's homestead exemption lowers the taxable value of a primary residence, and the Save Our Homes cap limits how fast that assessed value can rise from year to year. Budget for homeowners insurance as well. Rates in Florida reflect wind and flood exposure, so gather quotes early and check whether a specific address sits in a FEMA flood zone. Once you are under contract, plan for a home inspection and, if you are financing, a lender appraisal, both of which fall inside the inspection period. Working with an agent who knows Boca Raton means you see new listings in Palm Royal Apts Inc the day they reach the market.

Selling a home in Palm Royal Apts Inc

Selling a home in Palm Royal Apts Inc starts with pricing it correctly for current conditions. List prices in Palm Royal Apts Inc currently center around $169,900, which is a starting reference for where a comparable home might be positioned. Homes that are decluttered, professionally photographed, and priced to recent comparable sales tend to draw the most interest in the first two weeks, when a listing is newest and gets the most views. Buyers in an association community also want to see the HOA or condo docs, the reserve study, and any pending or special assessments up front, so having those ready before you list avoids delays once you are under contract. Florida sellers usually pay the documentary stamp tax on the deed, currently $0.70 per $100 of the sale price in most counties, along with prorated property taxes and, by local custom in many areas, the owner's title insurance policy. We provide a no-obligation home valuation for Palm Royal Apts Inc owners in Boca Raton, so you can see what your property could sell for before you commit to listing.

Listing agents and seller representation in Palm Royal Apts Inc

Thinking about selling in Palm Royal Apts Inc? The agent you pick shapes two numbers: what your home closes for, and how long it takes. A listing agent, also called a seller's agent, prices the property against what has actually closed nearby. They also prepare and market it, screen the offers that arrive, and negotiate the terms rather than just the price.

Conditions in Palm Royal Apts Inc sit close to balanced, which rewards sellers who price against real closed sales instead of neighboring asking prices. Homes here are averaging about 90 days from listing to accepted offer, so build that into your moving timeline.

Community-level detail matters most here. Association rules, what the fees cover, and which buildings sell fastest all affect your outcome. So does whether a buyer needs board approval before closing. None of it appears in a listing description. All of it decides whether a sale closes on time.

Pure Equity is a licensed Florida brokerage serving Palm Royal Apts Inc. Onias Derilus is the broker of record, Florida Real Estate Broker license BK3276618. A broker holds a higher license than an agent working under one. In practice that means the person advising you on price is also the one legally responsible for the file. That matters most when a deal gets complicated.

Realtors and real estate agents serving Palm Royal Apts Inc

People search for realtors, real estate agents, and real estate brokers more or less interchangeably. For most purposes the job title matters less than licensing and representation. Every licensed agent in Florida works under a broker. That broker carries final responsibility for the transaction.

What separates real estate professionals in Palm Royal Apts Inc is specificity. Can they answer questions about your street, not just your city? Ask what they have closed nearby and how they arrived at a price. A grounded answer cites particular recent sales. It also explains why those homes compare to yours. Vague reassurance is the warning sign.

Buyer's agents in Palm Royal Apts Inc

A buyer's agent represents the purchaser rather than the owner. They identify properties that actually fit and research what comparable homes sold for, not what they asked. They also advise on offer strategy. Finally, they manage inspection and financing deadlines through to closing.

Where buyers have room to negotiate, as they do in Palm Royal Apts Inc, the leverage is only worth something if you know where it exists and what to ask for. If you are buying and selling at the same time, which is common for people moving within Palm Beach County, sequencing the two is its own skill: contingencies, timing, and what happens if one closing slips all need planning before either home goes on the market.

What representation costs

Real estate commissions are negotiable. No law, multiple listing service, or association sets them. If an agent tells you there is a standard rate, they are misinforming you. What you pay is agreed between you and the brokerage you hire. Get it in writing before the work begins.

Industry rules changed in 2024. Now a buyer and their agent must put compensation in a written buyer agreement before touring homes together. Sellers may still offer to contribute toward the buyer's side. However, that is negotiated rather than assumed. It is worth thinking through with your listing agent before you go live.

Frequently asked questions

How do I find a listing agent in Palm Royal Apts Inc?

Ask any listing agent you interview two questions. Which homes have they closed near Palm Royal Apts Inc, and how did they arrive at their suggested price? A grounded answer names recent closed sales. It also explains why those homes compare to yours. With a median around $169,900 here, the gap between realistic pricing guidance and optimistic guidance is real money. Verify the license too. Florida licenses are public and searchable through the state's DBPR portal. Pure Equity is a licensed brokerage serving Palm Beach County. You can reach the broker directly at (561) 835-5400.

What does a seller's agent actually do?

A seller's agent prices the home against comparable closed sales. Before it goes live, they advise on repairs and presentation. Then they handle photography and marketing, and put the home in front of buyers and other agents. When offers arrive, they screen them and negotiate both price and terms. Terms matter as much as the number, because inspection windows, financing contingencies, and closing dates all affect whether an offer reaches the closing table.

How much does a real estate agent cost in Palm Royal Apts Inc?

Commissions are fully negotiable. No law or real estate board sets them. What you pay is whatever you and your brokerage agree to in writing before work begins. Since the 2024 rule changes, buyers and their agents must agree compensation in a written buyer agreement before touring homes. Any seller contribution toward the buyer's side is negotiated rather than automatic. Ask any agent you interview to put their fee in writing.

What is the difference between a realtor, a real estate agent, and a broker?

A real estate agent holds a state license to represent buyers and sellers. A broker holds a higher-level license and can operate a brokerage. That broker also carries final legal responsibility for the office's transactions. Realtor is a membership term for agents belonging to the National Association of Realtors. For someone buying or selling in Palm Royal Apts Inc, three practical questions matter. Is the person licensed, who do they represent in your transaction, and what can they actually tell you about your local market?

Do I need an agent to buy a home in Palm Royal Apts Inc?

You are not legally required to use one, but most buyers in Palm Royal Apts Inc do. A buyer's agent handles the parts that are easy to get wrong. That means identifying what comparable homes actually closed for, spotting condition or association issues early, and managing inspection and financing deadlines. Even in a slower market, negotiating room is only useful if you know where it exists.

Can one agent help me sell my current home and buy the next one?

Yes. For people moving within Palm Beach County it is often the more practical route, because one person coordinates both timelines. Sequencing is the hard part. Should your purchase be contingent on your sale? How would you cover a gap if the closings do not line up? What happens if one side is delayed? Plan all of that before either home is listed, rather than after an offer arrives.
