Frequently Asked Questions
- Can you rent out a unit at the Decoplage?
- Yes, with limits. Several listings say units may be rented for a minimum of 30 days, up to 12 times a year, and many say leasing is allowed in the first year of ownership. Rental listings ranged from $2,200 to $18,000 a month in the last year, with a median of $3,500. Confirm the current rule with the association.
- Is there a special assessment at the Decoplage?
- Several listings disclose an ongoing assessment for structural recertification and new hallways, payable monthly through March 2034. The amount varies by unit; one listing quotes $224.05 a month and another $496.97. Some sellers have paid theirs off. Ask for the exact balance on any unit you consider, and ask whether more work is planned.
- What have units at the Decoplage sold for?
- Units closed from $249,000 to $3,150,000 in the last twelve months, with a median of $455,000 and about $689 a square foot. The median sale closed at about 94% of list after 98 days. Studios recently closed around $262,500 to $300,000, and penthouses around $950,000 to $1,060,000.
- What are the HOA fees at the Decoplage?
- Of 81 listings that state a fee, the median is about $1,100 a month, with entries from $485 to $3,650 depending on unit size. Most fees include cable and internet, and many add water, sewer, trash, hot water and security. Add any special assessment when you compare the monthly cost. Ask whether the fee includes your parking space and whether valet or storage carries a separate charge.
- Are pets allowed at the Decoplage?
- Most listings say pets are not allowed. Some listings report that pets are allowed with restrictions, such as size limits. Because the rule can be applied differently to owners and tenants, confirm the current pet policy with the association before you buy, especially if you plan to rent the unit out.
- How big are the units at the Decoplage?
- Sizes run from about 515 to 2,565 square feet, with 675 square feet the median. Studios run about 525 to 550 square feet, and one-bedrooms about 515 to 890 square feet. Two-bedroom units and penthouses are larger, and a few owners have combined units into bigger residences. The largest recent sale was a 2,565 square foot four-bedroom residence created from three units.
- When was the Decoplage built?
- Listings date the building to 1965. It is concrete block construction, and listings record it at 16 or 17 stories. An older oceanfront building means ongoing structural and recertification work, which is why buyers should read the association's recent minutes and reserve study before they commit.
- What schools serve the Decoplage?
- MLS listings show Miami Beach Fienberg/Fisher K-8, Miami Beach Nautilus Middle and Miami Beach High as the assigned schools. Assignments can change, so confirm the zone for the building with Miami-Dade County Public Schools before you rely on it for a move.
- How many homes are for sale in The Decoplage?
- There are 44 active listings for sale in The Decoplage right now, and these counts update from the MLS as homes come on the market and go under contract. The top of the market here asks many times the entry level, so The Decoplage covers very different kinds of buyer under one name. Ask us to set up a search alert and you will see new The Decoplage listings the day they reach the market.
- What is the median home price in The Decoplage?
- The median list price in The Decoplage is $492,450, or roughly $734 per square foot. The median is the midpoint of what is currently listed, so about half of The Decoplage homes ask more and half ask less, within a broader range of $299,000 to $3,199,000. The median sits in the lower part of that range, so most The Decoplage 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 The Decoplage cover?
- Homes for sale in The Decoplage currently range from about $299,000 at the entry level to $3,199,000 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 $492,450. That is a wide spread, so The Decoplage genuinely holds homes at very different budgets rather than one price point. Tell us your budget and must-haves and we will send the The Decoplage listings that actually fit.
- How long do homes take to sell in The Decoplage?
- Homes in The Decoplage are averaging 254 days on market, measured from the day a listing goes live to the day it goes under contract. That is a slow pace, so sellers here should expect to price carefully and buyers often have time to compare before committing. Days on market in The Decoplage 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 waterfront homes in The Decoplage?
- Yes. The Decoplage includes waterfront homes with canal, lake, or Intracoastal frontage.
About The Decoplage
The Decoplage, Miami Beach, FL, is a waterfront community in Miami-Dade County with 44 homes for sale right now. The Decoplage is an oceanfront condominium in Miami Beach, built in 1965 along the Atlantic in the South Beach area. Its residences remain one of the more accessible ways to own on the South Beach oceanfront, with active listings from around $279,000 to $3.2 million and a median near $484,000, covering studios and one-bedroom layouts up to larger high-floor units. The building offers direct beach access and resort-style amenities, and its location on Collins Avenue puts residents in the middle of South Beach, walkable to Lincoln Road, Ocean Drive, and the Art Deco district.
The Decoplage is a single oceanfront condominium building at 100 Lincoln Road in Miami Beach, where Lincoln Road reaches the ocean. It was built in 1965, and listings record it at 16 or 17 stories. Most units are studios and one-bedrooms, with some two-bedrooms, a row of penthouses and a few combined residences. Most listings report ocean frontage or ocean access, and many report direct beach access. Activity is steady. In the last year 36 units closed, 44 were listed for sale and 2 were under contract, and 138 rental listings appeared, which shows how many owners hold units as rentals.
Sellers should start with the closings, because the range here is wide. Units closed from $249,000 to $3,150,000 in the last year. The median was $455,000, and the median price per square foot was about $689, with a range of roughly $457 to $1,445. Most of that spread comes from size, floor and view. A 530 square foot one-bedroom, unit 537, closed at $360,000 in October 2026, while an 850 square foot one-bedroom and a half, unit 1621, closed at $705,000 in March. Penthouse sales of $950,000 and $1,060,000 and a 2,565 square foot combined four-bedroom residence at $3,150,000 sit at the top.
The median sale closed at about 94% of its last list price after 98 days on the market, so most sellers negotiated. Pricing has to account for the specific line. Buyers pay for floor and view, and listing agents lead with direct ocean views whenever a unit has them. Current asks run from $299,000 to $3,199,000, with a median of $492,450, and some listings have been on the market for more than a year. One studio has been listed for over 1,100 days. A seller who prices against closings in the same line and view, rather than the building median, avoids that kind of wait.
Special assessments are the other big pricing factor. Several listings disclose an ongoing assessment for the building's structural recertification and new hallways, payable monthly through March 2034. The amount depends on the unit: one listing quotes $224.05 a month and another $496.97 a month. Some sellers have paid theirs off, and they say so in the listing. Buyers subtract the remaining balance from what they will pay, so a seller should know the exact payoff figure and decide before listing whether to pay it, credit it or price around it.
Presentation matters more in a building with this much choice. Many units are sold furnished, and remarks describe renovated kitchens with quartz counters, new bathrooms, electric shades and smart home controls in the best units. If your unit is rented, decide whether to sell it with the tenant in place, which suits an investor, or vacant, which suits a buyer who wants to use it. Have the rental history, the lease terms and the assessment payoff letter ready. Buyers compare many listings online before they visit, so strong photos of the view from the balcony carry real weight. Note the exposure too, since remarks show buyers respond to sunrise views over the ocean and sunset views from the southwest corner.
Buyers will find mostly small units. Sizes run from about 515 to 2,565 square feet, with 675 square feet the median. Studios run about 525 to 550 square feet, and one-bedroom units run from about 515 to 890 square feet, some with a bath and a half. The building is concrete block, and most listings report one parking space. Remarks describe balconies, walk-in closets and units that sell furnished. Some owners have combined units, and one listing describes a large two-bedroom that could be divided into two units, so ask the association what alterations it allows before you plan a renovation.
Monthly fees vary with unit size. Of 81 listings that state a fee, the median is about $1,100, with entries from $485 to $3,650. Most listings say the fee includes cable and internet, and many add water, sewer, trash, hot water and building security. Building insurance and reserves are listed less often. Add any special assessment to the regular fee when you compare costs. Ask the association for its budget, its reserve study and the status of the recertification work before you write an offer, and ask whether any further assessment is planned.
The Decoplage is popular with investors, and the leasing rule is specific. Several listings say units may be rented for a minimum of 30 days, up to 12 times a year. Many listings say leasing is allowed, including in the first year of ownership. Rental listings ranged from $2,200 to $18,000 a month over the last year, with a median of $3,500. Pets are not allowed in most listings, and those that allow them note restrictions. Confirm the current rental rule with the association, because it decides whether a unit fits an investment plan.
The Decoplage suits a buyer who wants an oceanfront address at the end of Lincoln Road, in a building with a pool, a gym and staff, and who is comfortable with an older building and its assessments. It suits investors who can work with 30-day minimum rentals. It does not suit someone who wants new construction, a pet without restrictions or nightly rentals. For sellers, the volume of listings means accurate pricing by line and a clear answer on the assessment decide how fast a unit sells. Owners who can show steady rental income under the 30-day rule have a story an investor will pay for.

Market & Value
The Decoplage market and home values
The The Decoplage real estate market reads best through the community's own recent activity, not a county-wide average. The median list price in The Decoplage is around $492,450, or roughly $734 per square foot. That sits about 18% below the Miami-Dade County median, which shows where The Decoplage lands in the local market. Recent asking prices have run from $299,000 to $3,199,000, so the home you choose within The Decoplage matters as much as the community average. Homes here have recently taken about 254 days to go under contract, a useful gauge of how quickly the The Decoplage market is moving. For pricing an offer or a listing, comparable sales within The Decoplage 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 The Decoplage so you work from real numbers, not an estimate.
How It Compares
The Decoplage compared to nearby Miami Beach communities
The Decoplage sits 6 of 7 on median price among these Miami Beach 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fontainebleau | 32 | $1,274,500 | $1,672 | 321 |

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 The Decoplage right for you?
It helps to know who The Decoplage tends to suit before you tour. The Decoplage appeals to boaters and buyers who want to be on the water, whether a canal, lake, or the Intracoastal. Waterfront homes carry their own insurance and maintenance considerations, so factor wind and flood coverage into the budget from the start. On price, The Decoplage lands in the middle of the market, a common fit for move-up buyers and full-time residents. Whether The Decoplage 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 The Decoplage
Life at the Decoplage is about the beach and the street outside the door. Listings describe direct beach access, an oceanfront heated pool and sundeck, a fitness center, a recreation room and a laundry room on each floor, and some mention a 24-hour concierge and valet parking. Many listings show bike storage, a billiard room, a business center and a playground. Lincoln Road's shops and restaurants begin at the building, and remarks point out that Miami Art Week events take place close by each year. Many owners rent their units out seasonally, so the building has a mix of full-time residents, part-time owners and visitors.
Location
The Decoplage location
The Decoplage is at 100 Lincoln Road, Miami Beach, in Miami-Dade County, with the 33139 zip code. It sits in South Beach where Lincoln Road meets the ocean, within walking distance of the Lincoln Road shops and restaurants, according to listing descriptions. Depending on the line, units look east over the ocean, toward the city skyline or along Lincoln Road. MLS listings show Miami Beach Fienberg/Fisher K-8, Miami Beach Nautilus Middle and Miami Beach High as the assigned schools. Confirm assignments with Miami-Dade County Public Schools before you rely on them.
Buying in The Decoplage
Buying a home in The Decoplage
The buying process in The Decoplage 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 Miami Beach means you see new listings in The Decoplage the day they reach the market.
Selling in The Decoplage
Selling a home in The Decoplage
Selling a home in The Decoplage starts with pricing it correctly for current conditions. List prices in The Decoplage currently center around $492,450, 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 The Decoplage owners in Miami Beach, so you can see what your property could sell for before you commit to listing.
Thinking of Selling?
What is your The Decoplage 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 The Decoplage.
Listing agents and seller representation in The Decoplage
Thinking about selling in The Decoplage? 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 The Decoplage, 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 254 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 The Decoplage. 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 The Decoplage
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 The Decoplage 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 The Decoplage
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 The Decoplage, 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 The Decoplage?
Ask any listing agent you interview two questions. Which homes have they closed near The Decoplage, 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 $492,450 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 The Decoplage?
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 The Decoplage, 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 The Decoplage?
You are not legally required to use one, but most buyers in The Decoplage 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.
