The One Number That Explains Doral
Doral isn't one market right now, it's two. Single-family homes are commanding a premium and moving like a seller's market, while condos have softened into a buyer's market. The gap between the two is the single most important number to understand before you make a move in 2026, whether you're buying, selling, a house, or a condo.

Doral Single-Family Home Market: A Seller's Market
Doral single-family home prices are up 7.6% year-over-year. Inventory remains tight relative to demand, which is keeping negotiating power on the seller's side of the table - homes priced correctly are commanding a premium, and buyers have less room to negotiate than they did on the condo side of the market.
Doral Condo Market: A Buyer's Market
Condo prices have dropped 3.4% year-over-year, a decline driven in large part by Florida's post-Surfside reserve and structural safety requirements reshaping HOA costs building by building. That's shifted negotiating power toward buyers, more inventory, more room to negotiate, and more due diligence to do on a building's financial health before making an offer. For the full breakdown, see my dedicated Doral condo market update.
Advice for Sellers and Buyers, By Property Type
Selling a house? You're in the stronger negotiating position right now - price it correctly and let the market's premium work in your favor.
Selling a condo? Pricing strategy matters more than it has in years. A strong asking price has to account for your building's reserve health and HOA financials compared to others nearby.
Buying a house? Expect less room to negotiate and be prepared to move decisively on well-priced homes in a market that favors sellers.
Buying a condo? You have more leverage and more inventory to choose from - but check the building's milestone inspection status and reserve funding history before you commit.
