Frequently Asked Questions
- Is there a land lease in Jamaica Bay?
- Several listings stress that there is no land lease in Jamaica Bay. Because the community is a cooperative, ask the association and your closing agent exactly what the sale conveys, how the cooperative's approval works and what the monthly fee covers, so you know what you own and what you pay before you sign.
- What are the monthly fees in Jamaica Bay?
- Every listing states a fee, from $245 to $270 a month, with a median of $270. Most listings say it includes internet, water, sewer and lawn care, and many add trash removal. Amenities include a clubhouse, pools, a library, a dog park, bocce and shuffleboard. Confirm the current fee with the association.
- What have homes in Jamaica Bay sold for?
- Fifty-six homes closed between July 2025 and September 2026, at prices from $44,900 to $272,000. The median was $150,000, or about $128 a square foot. Most 1970s and 1980s homes of 1,100 to 1,400 square feet closed between $140,000 and $180,000, and updated or newer homes reached $206,500 to $215,000.
- Can you rent out a home in Jamaica Bay?
- Generally not. Forty of the 90 recent listings say leasing is not allowed, and no home was offered for rent during the period. Seventy-nine listings also say buyer approval is required. Jamaica Bay is best suited to owners who plan to live in the home themselves.
- Are pets allowed in Jamaica Bay?
- Yes, with limits. Eighty-nine of 90 listings allow pets, and nearly all of them note a limit on the number and size of pets. There is a dog park inside the community. Ask the association for its written pet policy, including any weight limit, before you buy.
- Is Jamaica Bay an age-restricted community?
- Age and occupancy rules are set by the cooperative, so confirm them in writing with the association before you make an offer. Ask at the same time about the buyer approval process, which 79 of the 90 recent listings say is required, and about how entry to the community and visitor access are handled.
- How old are the homes in Jamaica Bay?
- Most homes in recent listings were built in the 1970s and 1980s, with the oldest from 1971. A few newer models have been placed on older sites, including a home built in 2025 on Andros Bay that was asking $295,000. Roof type and age, often a metal roof-over, matter a great deal on the older homes.
- How should I price my Jamaica Bay home to sell?
- Start with recent closings of homes of the same size and age, not with current asking prices. The median sale closed at about 93 percent of its list price after 64 days, and homes listed well above the matching sales have sat for months. Lead with practical updates such as the roof, air conditioning and electrical panel, since those are what buyers pay for.
- How many homes are for sale in Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op?
- There are 28 active listings for sale in Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op right now, and these counts update from the MLS as homes come on the market and go under contract.

- What is the median home price in Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op?
- The median list price in Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op is $159,000, or roughly $139 per square foot. The median is the midpoint of what is currently listed, so about half of Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op homes ask more and half ask less, within a broader range of $105,000 to $295,000. The median sits near the middle of that range, so Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op inventory is spread fairly evenly rather than bunched at one end.

- Homes for sale in Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op currently range from about $105,000 at the entry level to $295,000 at the top of the market.

- How long do homes take to sell in Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op?
- Homes in Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op are averaging 110 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 Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op 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 Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op a 55+ community?
- Yes. Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op 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.

About Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op
Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op, Boynton Beach, FL, is a gated 55-and-over community in Palm Beach County with 28 homes for sale right now. Construction dates to 1972 through 2025. It is an age-restricted, 55-and-over active adult community. Listings update from the MLS nightly.
Jamaica Bay is a cooperative manufactured-home community in Boynton Beach, in the 33436 zip code, filed in the MLS as Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op. Nearly every listing is a manufactured or mobile home, 89 of the 90 in the period, with one vacant site. Most homes in recent listings date from the 1970s and 1980s, the oldest from 1971, and a few newer models have replaced older ones, including a home built in 2025. The streets carry island names, such as Bimini Bay, Exuma Bay, Kingston Bay and Captiva Bay. Several sellers stress that there is no land lease here, which is a real difference from parks where owners rent their lots.
For owners thinking about selling, the closing record is solid. Fifty-six homes closed between July 2025 and September 2026, at prices from $44,900 to $272,000. The median closing price was $150,000, and the median price per square foot was about $128. The median home took 64 days to sell and closed at about 93 percent of its list price. That discount tells sellers two things. Buyers here are price-sensitive, and many listings start too high. A home priced close to the matching recent sales usually avoids the long wait and the price cuts that follow it.
Size, age and updates drive the price. Small homes of 720 square feet closed at $92,000 to $138,000, depending on condition. Homes of about 1,100 to 1,400 square feet built in the 1970s and 1980s mostly closed between $140,000 and $180,000. The best-kept and newer homes do better. A 1998 home of 1,188 square feet on Captiva Bay closed at $215,000, and a 1,104 square foot home on Del Rio Bay closed at $206,500. Buyers look closely at roofs, windows and systems. Listings that sell well call out a newer metal roof or roof-over, a recent air conditioner, a new electrical panel or a tankless water heater.
Competition is steady. At the time of writing there were 26 homes for sale and 8 under contract, with asking prices from $105,000 to $295,000 and a median ask of $159,000. Some listings had been on the market for six months or more, including a home on Captiva Bay listed for 492 days. The top of the active range is a new 2025 home on Andros Bay asking $295,000, which shows what a new model costs next to an updated older one. A seller of an original 1970s home competes mainly with other updated homes asking $158,000 to $189,000, and buyers will compare roof age, furnishings and storm protection closely.
For buyers, the homes are single-story and modest in size. Living areas run from 696 to 2,006 square feet, with a median of 1,179, and most homes have two bedrooms and two baths, with a few true three-bedroom models. Roofs are mostly metal, often a roof-over on top of the original, and siding is vinyl or metal. Many homes have a raised Florida room or screened porch that adds living space. Lots are small, about a tenth of an acre. Ask for the age of the roof, the air conditioner and the water heater, and confirm that any additions, sheds or enclosed porches were permitted.
The monthly fee is low for what it covers. Every listing states one, from $245 to $270 a month, with a median of $270. Most listings say it includes internet, water, sewer and lawn care, and many add trash removal and common-area upkeep. The amenity list is long for the price: a clubhouse, pools, a library, a billiard room, a dog park, and bocce and shuffleboard courts appear in nearly every listing, with pickleball, picnic areas and a putting green in many. Most listings also report an on-site property manager. Several sellers describe more than one heated pool, lakes and a busy calendar of clubhouse events.
Because Jamaica Bay is a cooperative, buying here is not quite like buying a house on its own lot. Seventy-nine of the 90 listings say buyer approval is required, so the cooperative reviews each purchaser, and the timeline for that review belongs in your contract. Forty listings say leasing is not allowed, and no home was offered for rent in the period, so this is not an investor community. Pets are allowed in most listings, with limits on number and size in nearly all of them. Confirm the community's age and occupancy rules and its entry arrangements directly with the association before you make an offer, along with exactly what the sale conveys.
Financing is the other practical point. Some buyers pay cash, and lenders treat manufactured homes in a cooperative differently from site-built homes, so talk to a lender who knows this kind of property before you shop. Jamaica Bay fits a buyer who wants a low monthly cost and an active clubhouse in a single-story home that is easy to maintain. It suits less well anyone who plans to rent the home out. For sellers, the record is clear. Realistic pricing against recent closings sells, and the updates buyers pay for are the practical ones, such as roofs, air conditioning and electrical work, rather than finishes.

Location
Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op location
Jamaica Bay has a Boynton Beach address and the 33436 zip code in Palm Beach County. Its internal streets include Bimini Bay, Exuma Bay, Kingston Bay, Gayle Bay, Captiva Bay, Del Rio Bay, Jaruco Bay and Grand Terre Bay Drive. Many Boynton Beach addresses sit outside the city limits, so check the property record for the jurisdiction of a specific home. Current MLS listings show the community zoned for Hidden Oaks K-8, Congress Middle and Boynton Beach High. Confirm the assignment for a specific address with the School District of Palm Beach County, and confirm the community's occupancy rules with the association before you buy.
Buying in Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op
Buying a home in Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op
Buying in Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op follows the same path as the rest of 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 Boynton Beach means you see new listings in Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op the day they reach the market.
Selling in Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op
Selling a home in Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op
A successful sale in Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op comes down to pricing, presentation, and marketing. List prices in Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op currently center around $159,000, 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 Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op owners in Boynton Beach, so you can see what your property could sell for before you commit to listing.
Thinking of Selling?
What is your Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op home worth?
Online estimates miss what makes a home different. Tell us about yours and a licensed listing agent will send you a pricing opinion based on what has actually closed near you in Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op.
Listing agents and seller representation in Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op
Thinking about selling in Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op? 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.
Buyers currently hold leverage in Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op, so pricing and presentation carry more weight than they would in a hot market. Homes that are prepared properly and priced against real closed sales still sell; the ones testing an optimistic number are the ones that sit. Homes here are averaging about 110 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 Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op. 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 Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op
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 Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op 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 Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op
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 Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op, 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 Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op?
Ask any listing agent you interview two questions. Which homes have they closed near Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op, 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 $159,000 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 Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op?
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 Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op, 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 Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op?
You are not legally required to use one, but most buyers in Jamaica Bay Mobile Home Co Op 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.
