Daytona Beach Shores Condo Market
April 2017
Daytona Beach Shores is the condo capital of Daytona Area. Actually, the number of condominium buildings is nearly the same as in Daytona Beach (66 condos), or Ormond Beach (62 condo buildings). Daytona Beach Shores has 63 condos, but considering that 80% of this small city’s population, it justifies being called the condo capital of the area.

No, it is by far not the era of expensive, and even moderately priced units yet. Simply not the era of extra cheap anymore. It is the era of cheap, but no longer super cheap.
How long will the transition between the cheap and moderately priced condo units will take is a million-dollar question. Meaning that nobody knows.

291 condo units changed hands in 2016. From $92,500 for a small (595 sf 1-bedroom unit in Curran Shores South to $1,015,000 for a 3 bedroom/3 baths direct Oceanfront south corner unit in Oceans Villas.
58 condos changed hands in the 1st quarter of this year, compared to 65 condos in the 1st quarter of 2016. 66 condos changed hands in the same 3-month period in 2015. Similar numbers for 2013 and 2014. Not a big difference, yet seems the pace is a bit slower this year than in two preceding years.
