Frequently Asked Questions
- What do condos sell for on Brickell Key?
- Thirty-five units in Brickell Key One and Brickell Key II closed in the past year, from $190,000 to $2,550,000, with a median of $377,500 and about $517 a square foot. One-bedroom units at 540 closed between $240,000 and $371,000, and two-bedrooms in either building generally closed between about $465,000 and $625,000.
- What are the HOA fees for Brickell Key condos?
- Every recent listing states a fee. The median is about $1,231 a month, and the largest units pay up to about $3,800. Most listings say the fee includes water, sewer and common areas, and many include trash, security and building maintenance. Ask for the budget, the reserve study and any assessment history before you make an offer.
- Which buildings does this Brickell Key page cover?
- It covers listings filed under the Brickell Key name, which are almost all at Brickell Key One, 520 Brickell Key Drive, built in 1982, and Brickell Key II, 540 Brickell Key Drive, built in 1991. One recent listing is at 848 Brickell Key Drive. Other towers on the island have their own pages.
- How long do Brickell Key condos take to sell?
- The median unit that sold in the past year spent 99 days on the market and closed at about 93.7% of its final list price. Larger, higher-priced units tend to take longer. Sellers who price from recent closings in their own building usually do better than those who price from the active listings.
- Can I rent out a Brickell Key condo?
- It depends on the building and its current rules. Some listings say leasing is allowed, some allow it in the first year, and others say new owners must wait before leasing. Recent leases ran from about $2,700 to $9,700 a month, with a median near $3,150. Confirm the rule with the association first.
- Are pets allowed in Brickell Key One and Brickell Key II?
- Most recent listings say pets are allowed, but about two-thirds of them also note restrictions, such as size, number or breed limits. One Brickell Key One listing mentions a pet area among the amenities. If you have a pet, ask the association for the current written policy for your building before you sign a contract.
- Do Brickell Key condos have water views?
- Most do. Fifty-seven of the 75 recent listings are marked bayfront, and Biscayne Bay is the most common view, followed by open water, ocean and city views. Exposure varies by line and floor, and some units face the pool deck or garden instead. Views explain a large part of the price spread between otherwise similar units, so compare them carefully.
- Which schools serve Brickell Key?
- Current MLS listings assign Southside Preparatory Academy and Booker T. Washington High. Only a few listings name a middle school, most often Shenandoah. Confirm each assignment for the specific unit with Miami-Dade County Public Schools, since boundaries and choice programs change.
- How many homes are for sale in Brickell Key?
- There are 34 active listings for sale in Brickell Key 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 Brickell Key covers very different kinds of buyer under one name. Ask us to set up a search alert and you will see new Brickell Key listings the day they reach the market.
- What is the median home price in Brickell Key?
- The median list price in Brickell Key is $650,000, or roughly $603 per square foot. The median is the midpoint of what is currently listed, so about half of Brickell Key homes ask more and half ask less, within a broader range of $299,000 to $4,500,000. The median sits in the lower part of that range, so most Brickell Key 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 Brickell Key cover?
- Homes for sale in Brickell Key currently range from about $299,000 at the entry level to $4,500,000 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 $650,000. That is a wide spread, so Brickell Key genuinely holds homes at very different budgets rather than one price point. Tell us your budget and must-haves and we will send the Brickell Key listings that actually fit.
- How long do homes take to sell in Brickell Key?
- Homes in Brickell Key are averaging 170 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 Brickell Key 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 Brickell Key?
- Yes. Brickell Key includes waterfront homes with canal, lake, or Intracoastal frontage.

Brickell Key is a small private island a few minutes from Brickell City Centre. This page covers the condominium listings filed under the Brickell Key name in the MLS, which are almost all in two buildings: Brickell Key One at 520 Brickell Key Drive, built in 1982, and Brickell Key II at 540 Brickell Key Drive, built in 1991. One recent listing is at 848 Brickell Key Drive, built in 2001. Other towers on the island are not part of these figures. Units here run from small units of about 370 square feet up to penthouses of more than 3,000. Most listings are marked bayfront, and the island setting is the reason people choose it.
If you own a unit and are thinking about selling, the past year gives a clear picture. Thirty-five units closed between July 2025 and September 2026, at prices from $190,000 to $2,550,000. The median closing was $377,500, and the median price per square foot was about $517, with a range from roughly $297 to $1,003. That median is low because many of the sales were one-bedroom units at Brickell Key II. One-bedroom units of about 590 to 700 square feet there closed between $240,000 and $371,000. Two-bedroom units of about 1,030 to 1,060 square feet in the same building closed between $560,000 and $625,000.
At Brickell Key One, two-bedroom units of about 1,137 to 1,229 square feet closed between $465,000 and $615,000, and a three-bedroom of 1,624 square feet closed at $745,000. Larger units carry the top of the market. A two-bedroom of 2,124 square feet at 520 closed at $1,350,000, and a 2,542 square foot three-bedroom unit listed as a villa closed at $2,550,000. Sellers should expect to negotiate. The median sale closed at about 93.7% of its final list price, and the median unit took 99 days to sell. Several units gave up more than 5% between list and close, so the list price should be set from closings in the same building and line.
Competition shapes the result. At the time of writing there were 34 units for sale and six under contract, with asking prices from $299,000 to $4,500,000 and a median of $650,000. Several of the larger listings had been on the market for close to a year. A seller with a renovated unit, impact windows and good views should still expect a buyer to compare against the closings above, not the asking prices. Units with two assigned parking spaces and storage are a selling point, because most units have one space. Present the view, document the updates, and price the unit to sell within the first two or three months.
For buyers, the monthly fee is the cost to study. Every recent listing states a maintenance fee, and the typical fee is about $1,231 a month, with larger units paying more and the biggest fees reaching about $3,800. Most listings say the fee includes water, sewer and common areas, and many include trash, security and building maintenance. About a third list building insurance. Both main buildings are now more than 30 years old, so ask for the milestone inspection report, the structural reserve study and any assessment history before you make an offer. One listing mentions 40-year certification, which is the kind of document to request.
Investors should check the rules for the specific building. Some listings say leasing is allowed, some allow it in the first year of ownership, and others say new owners must wait before leasing. Recent leases ran from about $2,700 to $9,700 a month, with a median near $3,150. Pets are allowed on most listings, though about two-thirds mention restrictions, so confirm size and number limits with the association. Most units come with one assigned parking space, and some with two or three. Valet parking is described in several listings for both main buildings.
The amenity list is the other reason buyers pay island prices. Listings describe pools, a fitness center, a sauna and spa, tennis, racquetball and basketball courts, barbecue areas, a children's playroom, a pet area, valet and 24-hour security. One Brickell Key One listing mentions a semi-private elevator. Listings also describe a walking and running path for residents. Most units face Biscayne Bay, with some lines looking at the ocean, the Miami skyline or the pool deck. Brickell City Centre is a few minutes away, which many listings point out.
Brickell Key One and Brickell Key II differ in ways that matter to both sides of a sale. Brickell Key One, at 520, is the older building, from 1982, and in recent sales its floor plans ran larger, with many two- and three-bedroom units between about 1,137 and 2,124 square feet. Brickell Key II, at 540, dates to 1991, and most of its recent sales were one-bedroom units of about 590 to 700 square feet, which is why it dominates the lower end of the price range. A buyer weighing the two should compare fees, reserves and assessment history side by side, and a seller should know which building's buyers they are courting.
Brickell Key suits a buyer who wants to live a short drive from downtown Miami and Brickell while coming home to a quieter island with bay views and a full amenity list. One-bedroom units at Brickell Key II are one of the lower-cost ways to own on the water this close to the financial district. Larger units at Brickell Key One appeal to families and owners who want space. Buyers who want a brand-new tower with modern systems will pay more elsewhere. Sellers should price to the closings in their own building and expect informed buyers who will read the reserve study.

Market & Value
Brickell Key market and home values
The Brickell Key real estate market reads best through the community's own recent activity, not a county-wide average. The median list price in Brickell Key is around $650,000, or roughly $603 per square foot. That sits about 9% above the Miami-Dade County median, which shows where Brickell Key lands in the local market. Recent asking prices have run from $299,000 to $4,500,000, so the home you choose within Brickell Key matters as much as the community average. Homes here have recently taken about 170 days to go under contract, a useful gauge of how quickly the Brickell Key market is moving. For pricing an offer or a listing, comparable sales within Brickell Key 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 Brickell Key so you work from real numbers, not an estimate.
How It Compares
Brickell Key compared to nearby Miami communities
Brickell Key sits 5 of 7 on median price among these Miami 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Aston Martin Residences | 48 | $3,225,000 | $1,586 | 229 |

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 Brickell Key right for you?
It helps to know who Brickell Key tends to suit before you tour. Brickell Key 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, Brickell Key lands in the middle of the market, a common fit for move-up buyers and full-time residents. Whether Brickell Key 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 Brickell Key
Life on Brickell Key is quieter than in the busy blocks of Brickell. Residents use the walking and running path, the pools and courts at their own building, and the bay views from their balconies. Brickell Key One and Brickell Key II each run a full-service building, with valet, concierge or front desk service, a fitness center, sauna and pool deck, and listings also describe tennis, racquetball and basketball courts, barbecue areas and a children's playroom. Most units have balconies, and many face Biscayne Bay. Dining, shopping and offices are a few minutes away at Brickell City Centre and in downtown Miami.
Location
Brickell Key location
The listings on this page are at 520, 540 and 848 Brickell Key Drive in Miami, in Miami-Dade County, zip code 33131. Listings describe Brickell Key as a private island a few minutes from Brickell City Centre, dining and shopping. Most units are marked bayfront, with views over Biscayne Bay, and some lines face the ocean or the city skyline. Current MLS listings assign Southside Preparatory Academy for elementary and Booker T. Washington High. Only a few listings name a middle school, most often Shenandoah. Confirm every assignment for a specific unit with Miami-Dade County Public Schools before you buy.
Buying in Brickell Key
Buying a home in Brickell Key
The buying process in Brickell Key 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 means you see new listings in Brickell Key the day they reach the market.
Selling in Brickell Key
Selling a home in Brickell Key
Selling a home in Brickell Key starts with pricing it correctly for current conditions. List prices in Brickell Key currently center around $650,000, 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 Brickell Key owners in Miami, so you can see what your property could sell for before you commit to listing.
Thinking of Selling?
What is your Brickell Key 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 Brickell Key.
Listing agents and seller representation in Brickell Key
Thinking about selling in Brickell Key? 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 Brickell Key, 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 170 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 Brickell Key. 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 Brickell Key
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 Brickell Key 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 Brickell Key
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 Brickell Key, 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 Brickell Key?
Ask any listing agent you interview two questions. Which homes have they closed near Brickell Key, 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 $650,000 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 Brickell Key?
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 Brickell Key, 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 Brickell Key?
You are not legally required to use one, but most buyers in Brickell Key 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.
