Palm Club Co-Op Lauderdale-by-the-Sea, FL Homes For Sale & Real Estate

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Palm Club Co-Op a 55+ community?

Yes. Every recent listing marks Palm Club Co-Op as age-restricted, and several remarks describe it as a 55-and-over community. Ask the club's management for its current occupancy rules and approval process before you make an offer, since a co-op approves each buyer and the approval is a condition of the sale.

What have homes in Palm Club Co-Op sold for recently?

Seven homes closed between August 2025 and September 2026, at prices from $600,000 to $1,500,000. The median closing was $745,000, or about $388 a square foot. The top sale was a canal-front four-bedroom home with no fixed bridges to the ocean.

What is the monthly fee at Palm Club Co-Op?

All seven recent listings show $1,577 a month. Remarks say the fee covers homeowners and flood insurance, roofs, exterior painting, grounds, yard watering, the clubhouse, the marina, trash and on-site management. One listing also notes a separate one-time membership fee of $2,650, so ask management for the current amount and when it is due.

Is Palm Club Co-Op the same as the Palm Yacht and Beach Club?

Yes. The plat name is Palm Club Co-Op, but most listings market the community as the Palm Yacht and Beach Club, or simply the Palm Club. Search under all three names when you look for past sales. Listings describe it as a private cooperative of 99 detached homes in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea.

Can you keep a boat at Palm Club Co-Op?

Listings describe an on-site marina with slips free to members, and every recent mention says there is a waiting list. Boat-length limits are described differently in different listings, so confirm the current limit and your place on the list with management before you buy for that reason.

Can you rent out a home in Palm Club Co-Op?

Generally not. Five of the seven recent listings say no leasing, and none was offered for rent in the last year. That keeps the community owner-occupied. Buy here to live in the home or to use it as a seasonal residence, and read the co-op's rules on guests and extended stays before you commit.

Are pets allowed at Palm Club Co-Op?

Six of seven recent listings say pets are allowed, and two mention a size limit, with dogs and cats noted as welcome on some listings. Two listings also mention other pet restrictions, and one notes a limit on the number of pets. Ask management for the written pet policy and any limit on the number of pets before you sign.

Is it harder to finance a home in Palm Club Co-Op?

Often, yes. In a cooperative you buy a membership tied to the home rather than a standard deeded property, and fewer lenders make co-op loans. Talk to a lender who handles cooperative purchases before you make an offer, and allow time for the club's approval.

Is Palm Club Co-Op a gated community?

Yes. Palm Club Co-Op is a gated community with controlled access at the entrance.

About Palm Club Co-Op

Palm Club Co-Op, Lauderdale-by-the-Sea, FL, is a 55+ community in Broward County. Palm Club Co-Op is an age-restricted 55+ community in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea, Broward County, Florida, governed under the Housing for Older Persons Act (HOPA). Homes are priced from $599,000 to $790,000. At least one resident per home must be 55 or older. Pure Equity lists homes in Palm Club Co-Op and represents buyers. Commission is negotiable, and what we are paid is agreed with you in writing before you commit to anything.

Palm Club Co-Op is a small cooperative of detached single-family homes on South Ocean Boulevard in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea, marketed in most listings as the Palm Yacht and Beach Club. Listings describe it as a private club of 99 homes set between the Intracoastal Waterway and the ocean, built in 1958 and 1959. It is an age-restricted community for residents 55 and older, and every listing in the last year says so. What makes it unusual is the combination: you own a detached house with its own yard and garage, while a co-op fee covers the roof, the exterior and a long list of services, and a beach club and marina come with membership.

If you own here and are thinking about selling, the recent closings tell you two things: values are high for a 1950s home, and sales take time. Seven homes closed between August 2025 and September 2026, at prices from $600,000 to $1,500,000. The median closing was $745,000, and the median price per square foot was about $388. The median sale came in at 96.8 percent of the asking price, and the median time on market was 88 days. The top sale, $1,500,000 in June 2026, was a four-bedroom, four-bath home of 2,794 square feet on a canal with no fixed bridges to the ocean, about $537 a square foot.

The rest of the sales show how much size and position matter. A three-bedroom of 2,374 square feet closed at $840,000 in August 2025. Two-bedroom homes of about 1,630 to 2,190 square feet closed between $600,000 and $925,000. One home, unit 35, sold twice in the window: $745,000 in September 2025 and $635,000 in September 2026, after starting at $699,000. That second sale is a useful warning. Buyers here compare carefully, and the co-op fee is part of their math. Sellers do best with a price that reflects the home's updates, its garage and any water frontage, and with realistic expectations on timing.

There is almost no direct competition at any given time. At the time of writing, no homes were for sale and none were under contract, and none was offered for rent. With a community of this size, a new listing gets the full attention of every buyer who wants this setting. It also has no recent neighbor on the market to compare against, so pricing has to lean on the closed sales above. Impact windows and doors, updated kitchens and baths, terrazzo or porcelain floors and two-car garages are the features that recent listings led with. Those are worth documenting with receipts and permits.

For buyers, the housing stock is distinctive. Every recent listing is a detached single-family home of concrete block, built in 1958 or 1959, with two to four bedrooms and about 1,630 to 2,790 square feet. Most are one story with a ranch layout. Five of seven listings have a two-car garage and the other two have a one-car garage. Roofs are flat or tile. Most homes have a private garden and yard rather than a pool. A few back to the water: one canal-front home has no fixed bridges to the ocean, and two listings show Intracoastal views. Water and sewer are public.

The co-op fee is the number to understand. All seven listings show $1,577 a month, and some remarks round it to about $1,500 a month. Remarks say it covers homeowners and flood insurance, the roof, exterior painting, grounds and lawn care, yard watering, the clubhouse, the marina, trash and full-time on-site management. Compare that against what you would pay for insurance, roof reserves and landscaping on a detached house nearby. One listing also notes a one-time membership fee of $2,650. Because this is a cooperative, financing and approval work differently from a standard deed purchase, so speak with a lender who handles co-ops early.

Membership comes with real amenities. Remarks describe a beach club across the street with a heated pool and about 100 feet of private beachfront, and an on-site marina with slips free to members, currently with a waiting list. Listings also mention a clubhouse, picnic area, shuffleboard and bocce. Pets are allowed according to six of seven listings, with size limits noted on two. Leasing is the strict part: five of seven listings say no leasing. Treat a home here as a place to live, not an investment rental. Several listings note a gated entry; confirm the current access arrangements with the club's management.

School assignment matters less in an adult community, but for the record, listings show McNab Elementary, Pompano Beach Middle and Northeast High. If you are comparing Palm Club Co-Op with oceanfront condos in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea and Pompano Beach, the trade is simple. You give up an elevator and a lobby, and you take on a co-op structure. In return you get a detached house with a garage and a yard, beach and marina access, and a fee that covers the insurance and exterior work that cost detached owners so much. Buyers 55 and over who want out of a high-rise usually like that trade.

Before you buy, do three things. First, read the co-op's governing documents and the most recent financial statements, because the fee pays for insurance and exterior work for every home and the reserves behind it matter. Second, ask management what the fee covers in writing; remarks list homeowners and flood insurance, but confirm the policy limits and what an owner must insure separately inside the home. Third, look at the canal and Intracoastal homes separately from the garden homes. The water homes have sold at the top of the range, and they carry their own dock and water-access questions. A careful buyer here is usually rewarded with a long, settled stay.

Market & Value

Palm Club Co-Op market and home values

The Palm Club Co-Op real estate market reads best through the community's own recent activity, not a county-wide average. Because inventory turns over as homes list and close, the most reliable read on Palm Club Co-Op is the set of most recent comparable sales inside the community rather than a single posted figure. For pricing an offer or a listing, comparable sales within Palm Club Co-Op 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 Palm Club Co-Op so you work from real numbers, not an estimate.

Buying in Palm Club Co-Op

Buying a home in Palm Club Co-Op

The buying process in Palm Club Co-Op is the one used across Broward 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 Broward County is about $3,610. 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 Lauderdale-by-the-Sea means you see new listings in Palm Club Co-Op the day they reach the market.

Selling in Palm Club Co-Op

Selling a home in Palm Club Co-Op

Selling a home in Palm Club Co-Op starts with pricing it correctly for current conditions. 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 Club Co-Op owners in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea, so you can see what your property could sell for before you commit to listing.
