Fort Lauderdale runs on water — a grid of navigable canals threading through neighborhoods like Rio Vista and Lauderdale Isles, where boats sit behind homes and the Atlantic is minutes away. Along the beach you get the high-rise energy of the Galt Mile, while inland pockets like Plantation Acres trade the salt air for space. It's a city that lets you pick your speed, from oceanfront condo to a quiet street with a yard.
Right now the market here is tight and selective, with just 9 active listings and a median list price of $420,000 across a wide $120,000 to $1,199,999 spread.
