PALM BEACH TO JUPITER ISLAND
Not listed.
Introduced.
South Florida's most significant waterfront properties rarely reach public markets. They move through relationships — between owners, between brokers, between families who have spent generations on this water.
FLORIDA HAS NO STATE INCOME TAX
New York is paying for
your waterfront home.
On $1,000,000 of income, New York takes $109,000. California takes $133,000. New Jersey takes $107,500. That's not a vacation budget — that's the annual carrying cost of a South Florida waterfront property. Move your residency. Keep the money.
The math is not complicated. Doing it correctly — before New York's Residency Audit Unit disagrees with you — requires precision. Model your number first.

Your Boat Decides What You Buy
A 58-foot Viking needs 5.5 feet of MLW and 65 feet of fixed clearance. Set your vessel specs once — every incompatible property disappears. No wasted showings. No surprises at the dock.

Search by Dock Depth, Not Bedrooms
Every result in our nautical search includes dock depth at mean low water, bridge clearance to the nearest inlet, and waterway type. The search every other platform doesn't build.

Waterfront Dispositions Are Different
Pricing waterfront without dock depth, frontage, and navigability data leaves money on the table. 1031 exchanges on waterfront property have narrow windows. We've structured both.

THE PLATFORM
Every tool you need. Every number verified.
Waterfront Only
Every listing is waterfront. Not a filter — a business model. We don't track inland. We track dock depth, frontage, navigability, and seawall age. One market. Complete attention.
Complete MLS Data
The full BeachesMLS record: pending, withdrawn, sold, and off-market. Not curated. Not a subset. Every transaction across 11 waterfront markets — since we opened the VOW feed.
Nautical Search
Filter by minimum dock depth, bridge clearance to the inlet, lift capacity, and canal width. Set your vessel specs once — every incompatible property disappears before you waste a showing.
MONTHLY MARKET INTELLIGENCE
The report every waterfront buyer and seller in South Florida should read.
Published on the 2nd of each month. 11 markets. Median prices, days on market, dock premium, active inventory, and months of supply. Pulled directly from BeachesMLS VOW. No spin. No estimates. The actual numbers.
View Current Reports →SELLING YOUR WATERFRONT HOME
Your dock is worth more than your agent knows.
Waterfront pricing without dock depth analysis, frontage data, and navigability scoring leaves money on the table. We've closed waterfront transactions where the correct dock premium was 40–60% above the agent's initial estimate. Knowing the real number before you list changes everything.
