Frequently Asked Questions
- What do townhomes in Keys Garden sell for?
- Fifty-one homes closed between July 2025 and September 2026, at prices from $275,000 to $430,000. The median was $359,900, or $195 a square foot. Newer 2018 four-bedroom plans closed between $370,000 and $385,000, and older four-bedroom plans of 1,852 square feet closed between $339,000 and $355,000.
- What is the HOA fee in Keys Garden?
- Listings show monthly fees from $180 to $269, with a median of $239. Most listings say the fee includes cable TV and internet, and many add the pool and common areas. Ask the association for the current budget and any assessment plans before you buy.
- When were the Keys Garden townhomes built?
- In two phases. Most of the community was built between 2006 and 2008, and a second group of homes was added in 2018 and 2019. The newer homes have later roofs and systems, which is one reason they have been selling at the top of the range.
- How fast do homes sell in Keys Garden?
- The median sale over the past year took 51 days and closed at 100% of its final list price. Several homes closed above asking. With 18 homes for sale at the time of writing, sellers compete with identical plans, so pricing against the latest sale of the same plan matters.
- Is Keys Garden a gated community?
- Listings describe the community's entrances and security in different ways, so treat it as a question for the association. Ask the HOA how the entrances are controlled, whether guard service is part of the monthly fee, and whether any change to those arrangements is planned before you make an offer.
- Can you rent out a townhome in Keys Garden?
- Many listings say leasing is allowed, and 16 say a unit can be leased in the first year of ownership. A few mention buyer approval or rental restrictions. At the time of writing four units were for rent at $2,500 to $3,700 a month. Confirm current rules with the HOA.
- Are pets allowed in Keys Garden?
- Most listings say pets are allowed, and many say dogs are welcome. Some mention pet restrictions, and one notes a pet fee. If you have a large dog or more than one pet, ask the association for its written pet policy before you buy.
- What schools serve Keys Garden?
- Most current MLS listings show Gateway Environmental K-8 Learning Center, Homestead Middle and Homestead Senior High. Gateway runs through eighth grade, which some families prefer. Confirm before relying on it for a specific grade. Confirm the assignment for a specific address with Miami-Dade County Public Schools.
- How many homes are for sale in Keys Garden?
- There are 18 active listings for sale in Keys Garden right now, and these counts update from the MLS as homes come on the market and go under contract. Prices sit in a narrow band here, so homes in Keys Garden tend to compete directly with each other. Ask us to set up a search alert and you will see new Keys Garden listings the day they reach the market.
- What is the median home price in Keys Garden?
- The median list price in Keys Garden is $364,000, or roughly $196 per square foot. The median is the midpoint of what is currently listed, so about half of Keys Garden homes ask more and half ask less, within a broader range of $319,999 to $410,000. The median sits near the middle of that range, so Keys Garden inventory is spread fairly evenly rather than bunched at one end. We can pull recent comparable sales to price a specific home more precisely.
- What price range do homes in Keys Garden cover?
- Homes for sale in Keys Garden currently range from about $319,999 at the entry level to $410,000 at the top of the market. That spread reflects the local mix, from smaller condos and townhomes up to larger single-family and luxury homes, with the median list price around $364,000. The spread is tight, which usually points to a consistent housing stock rather than a mix of sizes and eras. Tell us your budget and must-haves and we will send the Keys Garden listings that actually fit.
- How long do homes take to sell in Keys Garden?
- Homes in Keys Garden are averaging 106 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 Keys Garden 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.
- Are there lakefront homes in Keys Garden?
- Yes. Many Keys Garden homes back onto community lakes, and lake-view lots are common in current listings. The water here is inland lake frontage rather than Intracoastal or ocean access, so do not expect navigable water or boat dockage.
About Keys Garden
Keys Garden, Homestead, FL, is a community in Miami-Dade County with 18 homes for sale right now. Keys Garden is a community in Homestead, Miami-Dade County, Florida. Active listings are priced from $339,000 to $430,000. Homes were built between 2006 and 2018. Pure Equity lists homes in Keys Garden and represents buyers. Commission is negotiable, and what we are paid is agreed with you in writing before you commit to anything.
Keys Garden is a townhome community in southeast Homestead, made up almost entirely of two-story, Spanish Mediterranean style townhouses with attached one-car garages. The homes were built in two waves. The first went up between 2006 and 2008, and a second group followed in 2018 and 2019. Plans are large for townhomes: three and four bedrooms, and from about 1,704 to 1,965 square feet of living space. Several plans put a bedroom and full bath on the ground floor, and some end units have vaulted ceilings. Buyers who find Keys Garden are usually weighing it against a small single-family house, and the extra space at a lower price is the reason they choose it.
For sellers, the market here has been steady and fair. Fifty-one homes closed between July 2025 and September 2026, at prices from $275,000 to $430,000. The median closing was $359,900, and the median price per square foot was $195, within a range of $140 to $220. The newer 2018 four-bedroom, three-bath plans of about 1,916 to 1,952 square feet have been closing between $370,000 and $385,000. The older 2007 four-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath plans of 1,852 square feet have been closing between $339,000 and $355,000. Three-bedroom units of 1,704 square feet closed between $339,800 and $375,000, depending on updates.
Pricing discipline pays off in Keys Garden. The median home sold at 100% of its final list price, and the median sale took 51 days. Several homes closed above asking, including a four-bedroom on SE 25th Avenue that listed at $359,999 and closed at $370,000. With so many near-identical plans, buyers compare closely, so the spread between a quick sale and a slow one comes down to price and condition. Updated kitchens, newer air conditioning and corner or lake positions are what move a unit to the top of the range. Original-condition units sell, but they sell nearer the bottom. Corner units in particular draw attention, because they add windows and a little more yard.
Supply is the issue to watch. At the time of writing 18 townhomes were for sale and 7 were under contract. Asking prices ran from $319,999 to $410,000, with a median of $364,000, close to recent closings. Active listings had been on the market an average of 103 days, and a few had passed 150. With three to four sales a month over the past year, a seller here is almost always competing with a neighbor's unit in the same plan, and at least one listing was offering a credit toward the buyer's closing costs. Price against the most recent sale of your plan, not the community median, and you will rarely need to offer one.
The housing stock is consistent. Nearly every listing is a two-story concrete block townhouse with a one-car garage, a small private patio and a lot of about 0.04 acre. A few end units are recorded as single-family homes, but they are the same townhouse product. Most units look onto garden areas, and about a dozen listings report lake frontage or lake views. Remarks often mention storage rooms and walk-in closets. Expect tile or vinyl flooring in updated units and original cabinets in the rest. Water and sewer are public. Buyers comparing units should look first at the build year, since the 2018 and 2019 homes have newer roofs and systems.
Association costs are low for what they cover. Across 75 listings that show a fee, the range is $180 to $269 a month, with a median of $239. Most listings say the fee includes cable TV and internet, and many add the pools, common areas and grounds. Community amenities in most listings include a pool and a fitness center, and many show a playground. Some listings also mention a clubhouse and a picnic or grilling area. One remark describes the garage as fee simple, owned with the unit. Ask the association for its budget, reserves and any planned assessment before you write an offer.
Access control is a question to settle directly with the association. Listings describe security features differently, so ask the HOA how the entrances are managed and what the fee covers for security before you buy. Leasing appears flexible. Many listings say rentals are allowed, and 16 say a unit can be leased in the first year of ownership, while a few mention buyer approval or rental restrictions. At the time of writing four units were offered for rent, at $2,500 to $3,700 a month with a median of $2,950. Most listings say pets are allowed, and many specifically allow dogs.
For families, most MLS listings in Keys Garden show Gateway Environmental K-8 Learning Center, Homestead Middle and Homestead Senior High. Gateway serves kindergarten through eighth grade, so some families stay there through middle school. Attendance zones change, so confirm the assignment for a specific address with Miami-Dade County Public Schools before you buy. For buyers, the bigger checks are the build year, the age of the air conditioning and whether the unit has a first-floor bedroom, since those features drive both price and resale.
If you are comparing Keys Garden with other Homestead options, the honest summary is space per dollar. A four-bedroom townhome of 1,850 to 1,950 square feet with a garage has been selling for between $339,000 and $385,000 here, with a fee near $239 that includes cable and internet. Buyers who need a private yard or a pool usually look at single-family homes instead and pay more. Buyers who want a newer, larger layout at an entry price usually end up comparing units inside Keys Garden.

Market & Value
Keys Garden market and home values
The Keys Garden real estate market reads best through the community's own recent activity, not a county-wide average. The median list price in Keys Garden is around $364,000, or roughly $196 per square foot. That sits about 39% below the Miami-Dade County median, which shows where Keys Garden lands in the local market. Recent asking prices have run from $319,999 to $410,000, so the home you choose within Keys Garden matters as much as the community average. Homes here have recently taken about 106 days to go under contract, a useful gauge of how quickly the Keys Garden market is moving. For pricing an offer or a listing, comparable sales within Keys Garden carry more weight than any headline number, since homes of the same type and size set the real range. Pure Equity can pull the active and recently sold homes in Keys Garden so you work from real numbers, not an estimate.
How It Compares
Keys Garden compared to nearby Homestead communities
Keys Garden sits 6 of 7 on median price among these Homestead communities. Price per square foot is the fairer comparison between communities, because it adjusts for the fact that one neighborhood builds bigger homes than another. Days on market shows how quickly each one is actually selling.
| Community | Homes | Median | $/Sq Ft | Days |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Redland | 24 | $1,400,000 | $511 | 97 |
| Parker Pointe Townhomes | 23 | $507,490 | $280 | 52 |

Medians come from active listings in each community and move as inventory turns over. They describe the homes currently for sale, not what any one home is worth.
Who It Suits
Is Keys Garden right for you?
It helps to know who Keys Garden tends to suit before you tour. Keys Garden suits a range of buyers, from first-time owners to move-up families, who want a home in Homestead with the everyday conveniences of the area close by. A lake view is a common ask here, since many Keys Garden lots back onto water without the flood exposure of a coastal address. On price, Keys Garden lands in the middle of the market, a common fit for move-up buyers and full-time residents. Whether Keys Garden 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.
Amenities & Lifestyle
Living in Keys Garden
Keys Garden is a quiet, residential community where most daily life happens at home and at the pool. Residents use a community pool, a fitness center and a playground, and some listings mention a clubhouse and a picnic and grilling area. Many owners are families who need four bedrooms, and the ground-floor bedroom in several plans works for guests, a home office or a relative. Each townhome has its own garage and a small patio, and a few corner units have more yard than usual, including one with a mature oak tree. Units on the lake look over the water from the back. Commuters are close to US 1 and Florida's Turnpike, which listing remarks point to as a reason owners chose the location.
Location
Keys Garden location
Keys Garden is in southeast Homestead, Miami-Dade County, in the 33035 zip code. Homes sit on SE 23rd through SE 26th Avenue, Road and Terrace, and along SE 13th through SE 15th Street and Court. Some units back onto the lake. Listing remarks note quick access to US 1 and Florida's Turnpike, and short drives to the Homestead race track, Homestead Air Reserve Base and Baptist South, along with nearby shopping and restaurants. Most current MLS listings show Gateway Environmental K-8 Learning Center, Homestead Middle and Homestead Senior High. Confirm school assignments for a specific address with Miami-Dade County Public Schools before you buy.
Buying in Keys Garden
Buying a home in Keys Garden
The buying process in Keys Garden is the one used across Miami-Dade County. Getting a mortgage pre-approval first tells you your real budget and lets you move quickly when the right home comes up. Property taxes factor into the monthly payment: the median annual property tax in Miami-Dade County is about $3,516. 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 Homestead means you see new listings in Keys Garden the day they reach the market.
Selling in Keys Garden
Selling a home in Keys Garden
Selling a home in Keys Garden starts with pricing it correctly for current conditions. List prices in Keys Garden currently center around $364,000, 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. 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 Keys Garden owners in Homestead, so you can see what your property could sell for before you commit to listing.
Thinking of Selling?
What is your Keys Garden 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 Keys Garden.
Listing agents and seller representation in Keys Garden
Thinking about selling in Keys Garden? 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 Keys Garden sit close to balanced, which rewards sellers who price against real closed sales instead of neighboring asking prices. Homes here are averaging about 106 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 Keys Garden. 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 Keys Garden
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 Keys Garden 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 Keys Garden
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 Keys Garden, 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 Miami-Dade 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 Keys Garden?
Ask any listing agent you interview two questions. Which homes have they closed near Keys Garden, 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 $364,000 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 Miami-Dade 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 Keys Garden?
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 Keys Garden, 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 Keys Garden?
You are not legally required to use one, but most buyers in Keys Garden 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 Miami-Dade 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.
