Kinloch Park Elementary School

It's a central, practical part of Miami-Dade with an established, service-oriented feel anchored by schools and community programs like the Ethel F. Beckford/richmond Primary Learning Center. It suits buyers who value being close to the heart of the city and don't need a large home. The 901-square-foot median footprint reflects the compact, efficient nature of the housing here.

It's more accessible than much of Miami — the median list price is $339,000, with active listings starting as low as $175,000. That said, homes that actually sold over the past year came in at a median of $530,000, so the higher end of the market does trade. Where you land depends heavily on size and condition.

Active listings range from $175,000 to $825,000, with a median list of $339,000 and an average of about $389 per square foot. Over the last 12 months, 61 homes sold at a median price of $530,000. The gap between list and sold medians reflects the mix of smaller units and larger properties changing hands.

There are 33 active listings and homes are taking a median of 84 days to sell, which is a measured pace that gives buyers time to think. Sellers are getting about 96% of their asking price on average, so reasonable offers land. It's a market where preparation and patience both pay off.

The median HOA here runs about $646 a month, which is meaningful and worth factoring into your monthly budget, especially given the smaller unit sizes. Median property tax comes in around $3,508 a year. For investors, the median rent of $1,973 a month helps offset those carrying costs.
